Really? Arizona Wildcat Copper Helmets

Featured

I am really scratching my head on this one. I understand wanting to make a change, but Arizona going Copper.

Today is Rich Rodriguez 49th birthday and Athletic Director Greg Byrne announced that the school would be wearing helmets that were copper colored on some occasions.

Byrne gave a statement on the choice of color…

Copper is not only associated with our great state’s mining history, but it has influenced architectural design on our campus, including our athletic facilities – most notably the ring at the top of the McKale Center, and the future North End Zone Football Complex. As such we embrace the idea that as the University of Arizona we will incorporate copper into a special helmet design to represent our state and University. Copper will not replace our traditional colors of red and blue, and the copper helmet will be worn on a limited basis. Bear Down!

Very puzzling.

In case you missed it, a center fielder for Lower Columbia College in Washington state made one of the best catches in baseball HISTORY on Friday.

–There were two outs in the ninth inning, and a home run would have tied the game. But Derrick Salberg ended it by diving OVER the center field wall.

–The wall was kinda short, but the catch was still amazing. It was the number one play on Friday night’s “SportsCenter”. (–Search for “Derrick Salberg Catch.”)
