    You came full circle Race, we both agree, this is not a cheap paint job to the front porch. I honestly had come to believe I would not live long enough to witness the Dawgs in another rose Bowl.

    As a #TCUSuperiorityGuy, I'm admittedly not a huge Boise fan ... it was very easy from a distance to pop off about what Boise did and how they won ... however, they did win often and even in situations where I felt TCU had better talent than Boise, they always found a way to at worst stay in a game or at best win the game.

    I started turning my tune just a bit on Boise after the Vegas Bowl because we had no business losing to them (see the game 9 months later), but we were clearly out coached and Boise's execution of the details was night and day different.

    The more that you see of Petersen, the more you realize that there's a damn good reason he's been 92-12 and that when you look at the 12 there's a reason why many of those games were close losses. When you think about it, in no more than 5% of the games that he's ever coached has he been in a position where you could argue that his team was plungered. If he loses, he's in the game in the 4th quarter with a chance to win. In comparison, Seven would get plungered at least 3x a year to the point that he was as wide open as a glory hole.

    It's nice to be doogish with a reason. It's nice to have an expectation that we're going to win fucking football games. It's nice to be back in the mindset that it's ok to be pissed if we lose. I like having expectations. This season will be fun. My sweatpants say so.

    Having expectations means you're an entitled dooghole. - PDXDuckFan. Also, tl;dr.

    Race IS an old fuck, isn't he?


    Not Tailgater old, but pretty fuckin' crusty.

    Still, that was a solid poast - and I agree.

    Fremont has owned you for as long as I've been around here.

    I've seen just about big name coach present because I used to live at clinics and conventions in the off season. Part of it was wanting to get better as a coach, the other part to bang strange.

    Out of everyone I've ever seen Peterman's "Bronco Football" presentation is the only time I've ever truly been impressed other than Mike Bellotti before Coleen derailed him and the family. Obviously Pete is an understudy of HoF Mike.

    I don't think he does anything crazy this year with around 9 wins, but I'm going to be worried as he rolls into his third and fourth seasons. Being honest I would have been a lot happier to have the Ducks hire Pete over the tater eater they have now.

    I was attending UW when the recently retired Don James was hired.
