...almost ridiculous contrast between Snowden's experience and that of the more skilled (if less studious) NBA trio highlights a malaise of today's "big-time" college game--a maddening lack of continuity. Most fans feel as if they never know a team. As soon as a team begins to develop a particular character and show some promise, it is decimated by graduation and early defections...
...first band to play from the trio of California-based groups was the Blue Meanies. With a tenor saxophone and trumpet punching out a melodic complement to the solid rhythm section, the Blue Meanies succeeded in getting the musical juices flowing for the bands to follow, but failed to do anything more in terms of excitement.

Of course, the problems might also have been due to the fact that the R.E.M. CD was not as strong musically as some of the band's earlier efforts, and that Pearl Jam's CD was also substandard...
