In addition to photo shopping Don James' pictures, I'm thinking editorials aren't DJ's thing.

You should stick to former player interviews.

The 2000 Rose Bowl team beat a 3-8 Colorado team 17-14. But we should probably all shit our pants and give up.

They beat Colorado the week after they took out #4 Miami. And had already inserted a plunger into Idaho. We knew the team was good and a letdown road game against a quality program wasn't much of a surprise.

This year we have no other evidence of competency to just brush off looking like ass on Saturday. Still LIFPO, still let the team/coaches adjust to being new to each other, still expect better with a real QB, but it is worrisome we couldn't line up and run it down their throats. And that Hawaii was running it down our throats.

Using Colorado in 2000 and the '90 season is cherry picking. Colorado in 2000 was a team with talent in a hostile environment. They played in the Fiesta Bowl the next season. I don't see Hawaii doing that and they will be lucky to be .500 in the MWC. It's a good example to keep things in perspective that the season isn't over, but there are plenty of other examples where a shitty opener was a sign of things to come. The 2011 win over Eastern is a prime example.

The season isn't over and we will certainly play better this season. That opener was shit though and wasn't good. Blaming Sark for what he left also bothers me. The OL and front 7 are all returning starters (besides Coleman Shelton at RT) and they got outplayed for most of the game against a bad MWC team that didn't win a conference game last year. If Lindquist was the only thing holding us back I would feel much better. I guess we are called doogs for caring about the scrimmage. Personally, I think excusing that kind of performance by saying it was only a scrimmage is much worse than over analyzing a non conference game.

I've been very vocal about supporting Petersen before he was even hired. That was shit though and not having your team ready to play is somewhat concerning. It was the fucking opener. if anything, the players should be too amped up. The old saying goes, "I'd rather have to tell a guy to calm down than to get him fired up." I am curious to how the team comes out next week. I think it will be a tough week of practice and we see a different team next week.

TL, DR version: TSINO, but that was a fucking horrible performance that shouldn't be ignored.

Yeah I don't think you even know what cherry picking is. That would actually explain a lot.

Using select examples to boost your argument. You did it by using Colorado in 2000. I could wikipedia it or get the Webster's definition if you would like.

No. That's called "using an example". Please go to Wikipedia immediately. You need to learn the difference.

Joking aside I own the rights to use that DJ photo in conjunction with the book, so offhand I have no idea how that happened with writing added.

I fell for the hype with the rest of you, when common sense should have dictated that you can't turn an ocean liner around in a bathtub. Or do so with a rookie captain at the helm.

I recall Don James first years or so, he was slow out of the starting gate. Anyway, I doubt we see a piss poor performance like Saturday anytime soon.

What? Nothing about the white helmets?

GRAA. Chants at Memorial services was a nice touch.

Didn't listen to the KOMO broadcast. But did I hear Bill Schwartz is back? Also Gaard Swanson during the pre-game?

Chuck needs to come back, although I'm sure he's busy @ the WAC

I woke up fully clothed next to a half eaten Kalua pig/pork sandwich. Laptop on my chest, logged into Husky Hardcore. Totally out of touch with local media

Weird, I woke up half naked with Poi smeared all over my face and size 26 sticky panties on my pillow.

Sticky bvd whitey tighties u mean?

I realize Miles was not starting but from hearing the score I just have to feel ASU will have a chance in Seattle if the defense does not play better, but both teams will be better by the time they meet. Graham had to clean house in just the way Petersen is doing now with the attutude of players that are not "All In" , which was the motto of Graham's first year in Tempe. That takes some time and our players feel after three years finially the selfish attitude is totally gone. I really adimire your coach for doing the same. Funny thing is at USC they think it is OK Sark is a "players" coach which to Devil fans means the inmates like Burfict ran the prison. I was hoping Anu Solomon would be bad in his first game starting as a redshirt freshman but he is the real deal it appears Dawg fans. Tucson will be a hard place for ASU and Washington to get a win on the road this year.
