Nicely written story but have to disagree. There is no silver lining. No way to spin this one into anything close to positive. It was a complete and total fail

"That's what losing teams do, they lose."
No "silver lining" is gonna make me/us feel any less murderous. The reality that we're still at the point of grasping for silver linings is fucking melancholic to the nth fucking degree.
It would be one thing to just be defunct on offense or defense and lose (ie Texas earlier in the year) but this game reeked of an ineptness from the head coaching spot I never would have expected from Peterson.

My silver lining power rankings:
1. Roll Tide
2. The season was already over
3. I didn't watch
4. At least DJ didn't start the game thread
5. Maybe we will finally stop wearing fucktarded helmets -

The silver lining is that the end of the game was hilarious.

I watched the game with a detached view since I had spent my emotion helping Lane Kiffin not fuck up My Tide's win over #1 in what was a great game that shows how the SEC will win the national championship rather easily.
Washington is much improved and played like it mattered even though it didn't. Even Miles is less mildly retarded these days and is finally running like he should. The running backs are better, Shaq is back on defense and the green kids in the secondary held their own.
The whole team is vastly improved by addition by subtraction. One game is meaningless and building a program is what counts. If you can't see that maybe your boyfriend can explain the game to you.
And if you're writing off next year all ready you really don't know shit. But I'm not here to tell people what to think even if they would fit in real well at doogman with the hysteria on exhibit here.
When UW had 350 yards and 10 points the game was all but lost. The fact that they held the lead and held Arizona to 3 points for 29 minutes of the second half is a credit to an improved team and a black eye for the best coach in the conference who was standing on the sideline with a stupid fucking look on his face after his pass call cost his unprepared team the game apparently.
We were a Cooper fumble away from laughing at Dick Rod and his ice cream truck and his soft team getting pushed around by a second division team that isn't anywhere near as talented as so many posters here seem to think they are.
You are what your record says you are and UW is a 5-4 conference team that will be 4-5 this year. The world ends at that? Bullshit.
Petersen is changing the losers that lose to winners. Save this post if you want.
Despite the fact that we still have a shitty administration and a faggot AD, this is the best moment of Husky football since Rick was fired in June. And a lot of you fucktards thought that was a good idea.
Petersen is a lone bright spot in a dead program and the last best hope. If he fails it doesn't matter anyway. It's already fucked. -
So fucking glad I went golfing and then drinking instead of investing my time in that clusterfuck.
Is it worth going back to read the game thread?
Worst loss since 2002 @ Michigan? -
At least wait until Petersen wins before gargling his balls.RaceBannon said:I watched the game with a detached view since I had spent my emotion helping Lane Kiffin not fuck up My Tide's win over #1 in what was a great game that shows how the SEC will win the national championship rather easily.
