I am 32 years old and I don't have a recollection of UW ever being very good. There was 2000, but I watched the Ducks beat the Huskies that year at Autzen. Same as it ever was.
I was at "The Pick." It was cool, but I was still really young and didn't realize how important that Rose Bowl trip was.
What did it for me was Husky Stadium in 1997. What a bunch of smug asshole fans UW had back in those days. It was three 14 year old kids and one of our mom's. The shit that grown ass men said to us was ridiculous. Now having spent a lot of time on message boards with the people who would have made up that caring fan base in those days I totally get it.
Anyway, UW had those $75k purple helmets and yellow pants. So, so many empty seats. Just a complete shit show in contrast to the mighty Husky football program we were all supposed to witness. Akili floats that pass up, Pat catches it, and what little pride Husky fans had left was gone. UW has maybe beaten Oregon three times since then.
That is what did it for me. UW turned into absolute shit and still completely is while Oregon is one of the elite programs in the country. Sure, Don James quitting started the bleeding but to actually be there when Husky football died was something truly special.
I went back in 2007 and most Husky fans wouldn't even look me in the eye. Many were complimentary of Oregon. Empathy and battered wife syndrome had set in. Fast forward to last season with UW's new "gem" of a coach with his All-American littered defense that would turn the tide. Oregon has to start coasting early in the 3rd quarter as their 19 year old running back was starting to run up the score on his own. Same as it ever was.
Short version:
I'm a fucking cunt who's entire life revolves around a runner up team of 20 year olds.
Says the guy on an internet message board that revolves around a group or 20 year olds that would suck a mile of dick to be relevant by November.
You're in over your head.
Wrong again.
I am not "in," on any message board, and November is important to me for things other than watching boys run around in colorful unis.
Carry on, faggot. I don't want or need to compete with your internet boy prowess.
Yet here you still are. This matters to you and you're a bag of shit on both message boards and life. Best of luck fighting hunger during the holiday, maybe.
I never even heard of the Huskies until I accidentally found this website one day while my dog was pushing buttons on my computer... I read some of the threads and been a fan ever since.
I didn't really GAF about this thread until @CaptainPJ said this:

Which any college football fan, regardless of team allegiance, should recognize as bullshit.
If you don't like winning, you should watch soccer teams play for ties with the rest of the scarf-wearing homos ($75k) and maybe set yourself on fire just to make sure.
I'm amused to see the usual suspects let their inner Doogs out for a tumble when one of their tribe is called out for excusing mediocrity.
It matters but don't lie bro. In 1992 all of you Ducks would kill for this little 2007-2014 stretch. Hell in 2005 you would have too.
Fuck yeah. So would you. Oregon's the winningest team in CFB since like 2009 or some shit like that. The only thing Oregon hasn't won is the natty, which is why you fucks moved the goalpoasts to "win a natty and pop off" from "win a Rose Bowl and pop off."
I don't really give a fuck, I'll pop off when I feel like it. I want a natty as much as the next guy, but a few Pac-12 championships, a Heisman trophy and two Rose Bowl trophies keep me feeling pretty good for the time being.

This current Oregon run is equal to if not better than any run in Pac 12 history sans USC.

This has officially replaced the cat falling down the stairs gif as the official should be sig of Mosster. True lol on this one.
My dad had the Dream Season VHS and 7 year old me would play it over and over again. First game was '92 vs Wisconsin. I remember going to a house party for the night game vs Nebraska. The adults were going fucking crazy when the safety happened. I don't think I really had a choice after that , husky fan for life

UW fan for life? Nov. 17, 1973. My seventh birthday and first time in Husky Stadium. Huskies lose to USC 42-19. Blanchet alum Chris Rowland leads the out-classed Huskies against the juggernaut John McKay Trojans with Lynn Swann, Anthony Davis and Pat Haden. It was the last gasp of the Owens era. It was a crisp fall afteroon with my Dad (only one -- it was the old days) and brother. Over in Wallingford, the Blanchet Braves were building a state championship team with Joe Steele, Trip Rumberger and Ken Gardner. At Kent State, a youthful Don James was honing his craft for things to come. Great times were just around the corner. The Blanchet run is long over and I can only hope for the long-awaited UW recovery, but looking back, that day, foreshadowed my UW Husky fanaticism. Oh, I did graduate from UW (Hi Harv!)

I'm confused.
I need to be dooglightened I guess
