I don't have a stake in anything. I am a consumer. I don't own Husky football and neither do you. I choose not to pay for a shit product until they decide to produce a better one. Whose dick did you suck to get your MBA?

Are you an alum? Do you watch the product? Do you attend games? Does the subject of UW sports and in particular UW football take up your time?
Those are just a handful of questions that if you answer yes to you are a stakeholder of the product whether you want to agree with that or not.
Again, I don't care what you do with your time or money ...
But thanks for once again proving that you have no clue what you are talking about
Well even if he wins 10+ it still depends on how we win/lose. If every win is pretty close and we get blown out by both Oregon/Stanford than GTFO.
Your an idiot. WGAF who they win or lose to. Are you suggesting that beating Oregon/Stanford would be better than losing to Arizona/WSU? 10 wins would be huge, and who those wins come against, IDGAF.
10 wins with this schedule, assuming one is the NOGAF Bowl, is not that impressive. That means you swept your shitty non-conference schedule and went 6-3 in one of the worst major conferences in the nation, likely with all three losses coming to actual contenders. It would be incremental progress and enough to buy him year 4, but I wouldn't be impressed or satisfied with that.
Show me 10 wins. It's been 16 years. Even with this horseshit schedule, it's a giant step up forward. Until then, fuck off.
Just because every other PAC school has won 10 games more recently than UW you think it's reasonable to expect 10 win seasons more than once every 16 years?
I expect 10+ win seasons every year, especially with the shit non-confrence opponents on the schedule and playing 9 Pac-12 teams.
Win 10 this year and let's debate if Pete might be the guy. He could be. But as it stands now, he's an overpaid and overhyped charlatan.
You've missed my point here you dumb ass fucking donkey. Using being a stakeholder as a basis for your argument here is fucktarded. You should know that it's the money that matters here, not whether I waste my time talking about it on the internet.
The only thing you listed there that contributes to the bottom line is the tickets, and I won't buy anything but second hand tickets that were already purchased buy someone else (usually a sad sap that was stupid enough to buy season tickets). I don't have a ratings box on my TV and I doubt the advertising from a single TV watching the game contributes much to the TV contract or advertising dollars.
Again. Whose dick did you have to suck to get your MBA?
Let's get back to talking about our standard for the program and whether we think Pete is the guy. God knows the gutless pussies in charge will never hold anyone to those standards, but it's sure fun to commiserate together with irrelevant banter.
If the offense is better, the defense will be worse and/or have key guys injured. Or we lose 4 or 5 games by 3 or less an blow out everyone else. Our SRS rating will be high though.
This is Husky Football. We hire shit AD'a who were part of the problem. The majority of the fan base thought Sark was a very good coach. We win sustainability awards.
It's a shit program that has a nice stadium and was relevant 30 years ago. In the 30 years since, how many conference titles has UW been in contention going into the last two weeks of the season? Maybe 3?
I was in denial until Pete's first year. He was so bad that season that it ruined Husky Football for me. Sark was gone and we actually got worse. That preseason was the last time I'll ever doog it up until we win a championship.
I've given up on the program until they win. Give us a fucking championship or get the fuck out. I'm over the mediocrity.
Translation: Bandwagon
Are you gonna let Roadie back on the bandwagon?
I don't care where he stands and when he gets on or off ...
But his comments were Exhibit A of what a bandwagon fan looks like
Except it's not.
And it sounds like you care.
If "I've given up on the program until they win" isn't the definition of a bandwagon statement, then ISIS probably wasn't responsible for the bombings in Turkey either
All the Boston Red Sox fans in Seattle are the definition of "bandwagon".
Being fed up with a program that has kicked you in the balls for 15 years straight despite copious amounts of time and money invested and sticking with it anyways is NOT the behavior of a bandwagon fan.
I have absolutely no problem with anybody that has made the decision to pull their support with time, money, etc ... personal decision for all to make.
What I do have a problem with is those that can't see that there are alternative views and considerations that others have and react as if they are FS or whatever.
There's no way anybody can argue right now that the UW AD is well funded and supported ... and given their track record over the last 20-25 years and in particular the last 10-15 years, it shouldn't be because they haven't adequately proven that they have the chops to properly invest surpluses and run the business well.
We aren't reacting to an "alternate view", we are mocking your long winded history of lapping up whatever the program serves you like a good little doog.
You act like we haven't been having this same conversation on repeat for years.
And in all those years, we have been right, and you have been wrong.
I'd say that I hope this helps, but we all know it won't.
Uh huh. Says the dumbass that doesn't understand where the money to fund the AD comes from to begin with. Being a stakeholder doesn't make someone a customer.
Let's get back to talking about our standard for the program and whether we think Pete is the guy. God knows the gutless pussies in charge will never hold anyone to those standards, but it's sure fun to commiserate together with irrelevant banter.
We all watch the games and at times come here to talk Husky Football. How is anyone here a bandwagon fan?
Nobody thinks you aren't a loyal fan Tequilla. You are. You're just a dumbass doog who thinks being optimistic makes you a better fan.
I don't blame anybody for saying that they are invested when things are going well and check out a bit when they aren't ... that's human nature and we all do that.
I think most associate bandwagon as the person that only roots for the team when they are winning ... take your standard issue 12 as an example ...
I do think that checking out a bit when things aren't going well can be dangerous if too many check out and it leads to general apathy. My general experience is that you have to be more involved in the front end to get things working right than on the back end of a process when everything is running smoothly.
I do think that there are bandwagon elements when it comes to choosing when you are involved ... but compared to the typical bandwagon fan, you are far removed from that
I don't disagree that demanding more out of the AD and University than what they have at times in the past is required ... it is one of the reasons I've been so vocal about that here, DM, on Twitter, and now on the TSIO pod ...
But unlike you where UW season tix is a financial decision between the games or weed while you watch the games at home, my financial support of the program keeps it moving so that the potential of better days are possible. People like me keep this program from legitimately going into financial default and UW looking like WSU or Oregon St ...
Have you ever thought about what actually would happen if ALL 45,000 UW season tix holders decided not to renew and thereby leaving UW playing in an empty stadium and an AD budget that would be massively in the red?
I didn't renew. I was a Tyee Purple. Four seats. Traveled to most away games. Donated extra scoot. When the call came to renew in 2010? Fuck off. Try saying it. "Fuck Off. "
Shit program? Shit decisions. Shit Choices? Take your seats and shove them up your ass. Don't call me for money. Don't ask me to renew. Go Fuck Yourself.
Its fucks like you that enable them to continue. Empty stadium? Deficit? Why? Stop giving lifetime deals to under achieving coaches. Stop contributing to poor decisions and mediocrity. Let's try it again, "Fuck Off!"
UW bought Peterman away from Boise State. Made him the highest paid coach in the Pac-12. I get it. He kicked ass at Boise State. Great. To date the results have been Horseshit. What does UW do? Let's give him a raise. For what? Continuing Sark's mediocrity?
Lorenzo Romar. He wants a lifetime deal. How about ten years? What's he done since he signed the extension? Zero!
So bully for you Tequilla. You're keeping Pete and Romar well fed, paying their country club memberships and in their Husky Car Coach Marcedes'
To you sir, I say the same thing I told the AD when they asked me to renew, Fuck Off.
Former Tyee. 8 football and 4 basketball tickets. I traveled to at least one away game every year. I paid top dollar to go to every NCAA game of the Romar era.
I didn't drop them for financial reasons.
I didn't drop them because I stopped caring.
I didn't drop them because I moved.
I didn't drop them for another sport.
I dropped them because this AD is incompetent. The recent budget news and the empty stadium would show I am not alone. If that doesn't make the AD take notice, then fuck it. Raze the stadium and build Harv's P-Patch.

You ever hear of capitalism? Vote with your dollar?
I don't repeatedly buy a shitty product and expect a company to make a better one. I stop buying the product so that they fail because it's what they deserve. UW deserves to look like OSU and WSU right now based on the total lack of competence from those in charge. Those people deserve to be fired and replaced with someone else who can do better. The only effective way to achieve this is by affecting their bottom line.
You have a fucking MBA and you are too thick to understand this. Let that sink in for a bit.
P.S. All 45K season ticket holders would never cancel all at once, so your hypothetical scenario is bullshit. It happens gradually over time. But I am glad that the AD is in the red right now and they absolutely deserve to reap what they sow. If they want their funding for olympic sports back, they can take care of the cash cow for once.
Win a sustainability award and then pop off. Douche.

You are the only person here I like. Scissor?
Not sure what this says about Tequilla. Pretty sure it isn't good.
