Ha. If UW sees a comparable 6,500 people donate $25 a month, that's about $2 million a year. If UW wants to spend $20 million on the roster to keep up with the billionaire backed teams, that is 10% of it from non-mega boosters and non-Tyees.
So yeah, it would be nice if Race clipped more coupons and gave $25 a month to Montlake Futures.
One thing that is also irritating is why the fuck isn't the Montlake Gold NIL lager at every fucking QFC in the state? At least Western Washington? I'm not stopping at U-Village to load up on shitty beer, they need to make that more available.
Or preferably one of the 50 WSU owned bottle shops around me. I'd buy some Ole Crimson lager as well if they wouldn't be cunts about it.
I just thought it was only sold outside the stadium at QFC right now. It might already be in Safeway or I may have heard that wrong on one of the podcasts.
I don’t even want to do the maff on how much our family spends on UW football as it is. The main cash cow is WoolleyDoog SR but WoolleyDoog and I contribute via parking, food and beverage etc. Not to mention one of my best friends that goes on our bus 2-3 times a year that buys 6 tickets. Also another business partner of senior’s that buys like 4 tickets. It’s just never enough. NEVER. ENOUGH.
Unless you're just hellbent on not buying anything in the stadium, you can't walk out of there without spending over a 100$.
Combine the fact that the U-District in general has become shit for pre-game places: Ram is gone, Bigtime is fucking impossible unless you get there 3 hours before kickoff, Same with Shultzy's, Dutchess/Ravenna brewing are super inconvenient. Other couple dive bars on the ave are way too packed with visiting fans, etc.
You're forced into the Zone paying 16$ per NIL beer. And that is by design.
If you go into the merch store which I do every time because I'm drunk, you're walking out with like 200$ spent on a few t-shirts and a hat.
In my experience UW is dead last of the 4 northwest schools when it comes to this.
I was eating there the other night with my wife. They definitely hire from a very narrow range of girls, with the token exception in there because the lawyers told them to. My wife was like, "enjoying the scenery?" The whole time I'm there the line from Mo Greene kept popping into my head, but instead of Fredo it was Sark:
yeah but does it feel better when some recruit or portal guy is on the hook and they go to somewhere like Missouri or TCU and the line is there’s just no way we can compete financially?
Lazy hire, hopefully he'll be gone soon. Most recent thing I read about him was he congratulated Dickert on his new job on X. Couple that with him saying "Go Cougs!" on X AFTER being hired at UW, and he can go ahead and fuck off.
In the United States, Mexico, Australia, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Pacific Island nations, and English-speaking Canada, the sign is written

TV money helped lead to this too.
Safeway too, for us pours.

Moore's Law changed the game on tv ad revenue for sports @HFNY.
If you wanna sell beer and pick up trucks, you gotta get your product placed next to live sports. No one watches network TV anymore except for sports.
I haven't seen any Ducktard Lager here in Wakanda yet. But I did have some Ducktard IPA at McKight arena in the fall.
It’s just never enough, bro

Also the price of diesel in the last administration’s eco…. Alright save it for the TUG

You do not come to U Village and talk to a man like @Joey like that!!

Hurtful
Yeah exactly. Where the fuck is the money going?
I can live without purple light shows and whatever else.

You got that right.
