This validates everything we've been saying for twenty years. But holy fuck, seeing it like this is a pretty rude awakening. 1991 might as well be 1891. Story.

    Verizon's coverage map is really looking solid.

    Taking a quick look at all of the big teams in major cities on the west coast, UW is no different than USC, UCLA, Stanford, or Cal. The NYTimes methodology used the social internet to measure % of posts about the local team compared to other interests... people in big cities have a lot of other interested to post about. People in Lincoln Neb or Alabama or Eugene... not so much.

    Look at Alabama and then look at Washington. Wow, just wow.

    Wow, you're telling me that winning causes fan interest? Holy shit man! Nebraska the outlier, but then they are fucking classy. Iowans and Arkansans must lead miserable and pathetic lives.

    There are about 1,000,000 more things to do in Washington than Alabama, especially if you like the outdoors.

    Your team is located in Seattle. That is about as bad as it gets. I saw more O stickers than W stickers (none) in that city. Aside from that, the state of Washington as a whole deserves the 2 shitty teams that they have, because obviously not enough of you give a fuck. Washington State is fast approaching its own duckade. Oregon gives a fuck. And Oregon owns both your asses. What are you going to do about it? Probably nothing....

    People would give a fuck if the university gave a fuck.

    Turns out that for over a decade, they didn't.

    HTH.

    And you can do the same 1,000,000 things in Oregon that you can do in Washington, except pump your own gas. How does that explain the discrepancy between teams and fucks given?
