Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

But why do they call him PoolBoy: Jood checks in with our favorite fluffer

So Woodward thinks he needs a fashion show to get people to come to games? wow, just wow. Though I'm sure that Aubs has an iron law semi after reading those revenue numbers.

    Here's what the brilliant marketing geniuses at UW need to get people to come to games:

    1. Wins
    2. A decent OOC schedule
    3. Wins
    4. Wins
    5. Wins

    But the ZONA schools are SERIOUS about footBALL

    If Pool Boy thinks that the reason that people go to the Waste Management Phoenix Open is because of a fucking fashion show ... then he's even more of a fucking idiot then we give him fucking credit for ...

    What a fucktard

    Still better than Pat Haden

    Quite honestly, it's debatable.

    If you think fashion shows draw crowds to a sporting event ... then I don't care what fucktardedness Pat Haden does, Pool Boy has a lot of explaining to do.

    You be real careful when you talk about Haden around here. Heard 7-11 has plenty of room in the lot this time of night.

    I'm thinking Pat Haden is not considering a fashion show at the Coliseum...

    What Woodward (and some other AD's) don't seem to get is that football is primarily a tough, blue collar sport. It's not golf or tennis, nor will it be. Yes, CFB is somewhat different with the students and alumni, but the blue collars were a key part of the crowd that they're ignoring. I'm guessing it's because some have been priced out, but it's fucking Seattle. Longshoremen make like $125k. Even some 20 yr. old construction stiff probably makes $25 an hour. They can afford tickets.

    We laugh and scoff at Crazy Larry, animal cracker promotions, gay uniform updates on Twatter, and fashion shows. Imagine what the tough liberal logger thinks of that nonsense. Do you think that might alienate them Poolboy?

    It seems like they're going for Amazon and Microsoft transplants or something. I really don't know what they're doing to be honest. If you want kids to bug their parents to go to games....I don't know, offer a fucking poster, a free mini football, a picture with a player..free hot dogs. This isn't brain surgery. Animal crackers are for Kindergarten girls...

    Case in point. Just win, and all of your blemishes (read fat, stupid, drunk fan base) are washed away.
