I wish I didn't. I cared a lot more back then too. I busted up an umbrella in the stands after the 90 UCLA game. My wife tells me the next summer that she would rather spend her crisp fall days doing something elseLoneStarDawg said:

First and goal at Colorado. I was sitting at the ten yard line at that end of the field and the mouthy fucking BUFF fan next to me finally shut up as he saw impending defeat.
We fucking blow it. And to make sure we blew it we lose at home to a soft faggoty UCLA 3-8 fucking true freshman QB of a team. We made that mother fucker a millionaire as he was smart enough to LEAVE before it became obvious how bad he sucked. Tommy F Maddox.
We SHOULD have had 5 Rose Bowls in a row and a natty or two a decade earlier but we fucking lost the APPLE CUP two years in a row and shit the bed AT Stanford as the #1 ranked team in the cuntry.
That's why the 91 Nebraska game is seared in my memory like Christmas in Cambodia because it was the only time in my LIFE that we were #HUSKYSTRONG and came back on the ROAD to beat a good team and completed the 12-0 natty.
In 1999 we lose to another horrible UCLA team to blow the conference. In 2000 we come out flat and soft on the ROAD at whOregon (lol) and lose that game keeping us from the BCS title game.
Then shit forever WE FUCKING SUCK.
Ok?
My wife and I had friends over to watch a few different games last saturday, I've got a bunch of SEC friends who wanted to watch A&M/Ark. So I pulled up the UW game on my ipad with headphones, to be a closed off introverted west coast fuck. My wife tried to ask me some bullshit question right when Arizona was busting loose that punt return in the 1st quarter. I'm not surprised that i'm not surprised that I dont remember being a huge asshole to her in response. needless to say we had a nice discussion once everyone left and I missed the 2nd quarter.
This week I'm boondoggling to the Stanford game with my brothers which falls on her birthday. There is no scenario this turns out well for me, I lead a miserable and pathetic life. -

Stanford by 10. Prove me wrong, Pete. -
@LoneStarDawg I recommend a huge bunch of flowers to try to soften the blow ... perhaps a trip to the spa as well ...
Definitely good reason for you to throw down some beverages in advance of getting home to soften the impact -

preemptive dinner and a movie date last weekend, so that when she gets angry she knows she already received her agreed upon goods and servicesTequilla said:@LoneStarDawg I recommend a huge bunch of flowers to try to soften the blow ... perhaps a trip to the spa as well ...

I don't know why this year will be different. It just will. Stanford will be the win that sends husky fans over the edge, only to come crashing down to earth hard after being boat raced by oregon and asu. I don't know why it is, but it do.

My wife makes plans during the Duck game specifically because I end up black out drunk and pissed off for the entire weekend.LoneStarDawg said:

I dooged it up hard one year and bought a bottle of champagne to celebrate our win that obviously never happened. Solemnly drank it all anyway after our inevitable plunger.
