Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

I now find pessimism annoying

    Pity Washington has a fumbling problem.

    So did Sankey as a frosh (see @ Nebraska) ... what's your point?

    Agree. It was one game and 99% of RB's would have fumbled when he got bent in half. Saying he has a fumbling problem is jumping to conclusions. We haven't seen enough of him to know.

    I have always found optimism and pessimism to be annoying. I just like being realistic. Right now the people who don't expect things from Petersen aren't being realistic. Sure, it is possible he will be a bust but that is NOT the most likely scenario based on his track record and the resources of Washington.

    I don't get those that say that Washington had fumbling problems last year. He sucked against Illinois with them. It sucks. But so be it. You tend to learn best from your mistakes. My guess is that he won't have problems going forward. Nor did Sankey after his gaffe at Nebraska on the kickoff. Shit happens.

    disagree.

    But agree with the unboalded part.

    In my minds eye (Hi Hugh Millen) I have the next 5 years going like this for Peterman:

    10-3
    9-3
    10-2
    11-1
    12-0

    Sorry, I'm doogin now. I'll stop.

    On paper now, 2015 looks to be a shitshow.
    It's early, but I don't think it will be that bad. I think we will be better than most think in 2015.
    I agree. Petersen will have had almost two years to prepare for it. Had Sark stayed, I'd be worried about a 6-6 type season, but he's $C's problem now.

    It was a poorly worded whoosh (definitely not my best effort), but the only person that had a problem with Washington's fumbling was Sark because it threatened to cost him his trip back to SC.

    There are a few poasters around here who agreed with Sloppy Seven.

    Please stick to the 5 reasons format of having only 5 reasons. And mention Oasai.

    Auburndawg is not responsible for the 5 reasons.

    Disagree. That was Sven.

    MY MAILBAG was filled to the brim with absolute gems from my favorite Husky fans this week. "Your worst nightmares have just been realized: Washington is awesome again," came from Dave in Auburn.
    That was an awesome column except for this #OldManMusicFriday bit:

    Pearl Jam is awesome.
