Crazy Larry

How the fuck did Woodward not want to slap the shit out of whoever pitched him Crazy Larry?

First time I saw that Crazy Larry image I thought it was a Fark. It is shocking that it is an actual attempt at "marketing".

I would have fired Woodward the day Crazy Larry debuted.

Seriously, as university president, I would have asked Woodward to come to my office. As soon as the door was closed and we were both seated, I would hold up a Crazy Larry ad and ask: "Scott, what the fuck is going on in that office of yours?"

You would say it to his FACE?!!! Or are you just talking tuff behind a fake computer name hiding a boner in your sweatpants?

I've been in the president's office. I remember the flash of anger across Emmert's face when I asked about what sources close to him had told me about his decision to keep Willingham.

I've said this to a few friends but I will mention it here publicly. When I sat in Emmert's office, he had trouble maintaining eye contact with me. But when I sat in Woodward's office ten days later, the conversation was very cordial but he locked eyes with me repeatedly. It was an interesting contrast.

Emmert body language superiority guy.

Did he slip you a note the second time telling you that he would soon take his powerful 2 inches of thunder to Indianapolis?

The company that actually put together the Crazy Larry campaign is the "Wexley School for Girls" advertising agency... Needless to say they were an absolute disaster.

That company has to be the worst collection of hipster douches on the planet.

From the link to Wexley. . .

"We created Larry, a Frankenstein of our dreams and nightmares, and he helped us get tickets sold at a record pace."

If this isn't the biggest whoosh ever I don't what is.
Who in their right mind would think "Crazy Larry" is funny, clever, interesting, or whatever?
If this is the UW's response to Oregon's marketing we're totally screwed.

Gotta love it. Doogs constantly bitch about Nike destroying everything from our logo to our shade of purple to our uniforms to sabotage us for Whoregon (lol!).

And then the Wexley School for Girls Frankeinstein happens.

There is something massively wrong with UW marketing, but Nike's clearly not it.

Seeing that website made gave me the sudden urge to grab the nearest jagged object, gouge my fucking eyeballs out, and then pour rubbing alcohol into the open wounds.
