Kudos to you Husky fans that are hanging in there right now. Those that have not jumped off the deep end, I think you will be rewarded. The Tyrone hangover, the Emmert departure, the Woodward hire, the Sark hire, these have all led to some strange (although pretty isolated) behavior from the “fan base”. You may have seen the “I miss Washington” mantra chanted, or you may have been called a “doog” for finding anything positive about the current program, and you may get told that your hopes are “lather, rinse, repeat” if you feel the program is on its way back. Does that stuff really matter? It is a small minority, don’t let it spoil your fun. It’s not worth it and most can see it for what it is. Don’t fan the flames by engaging in rebutting it. My son asked me why another Husky fan would want to fight with another Husky fan….I didn’t have a good answer for him, other than it is very important for some to be right at all cost, and that cost it seems includes their support for the football program. Once lines in the sand get drawn, some can never turn back from it, sadly. The two consecutive losses sucked, but don’t let it wreck the big picture, which is still being constructed as of now.

    Dave is a pretty legit dude, but I think even he is starting to slide into the idiocy of the Kim camp. I sometimes wonder how their subscriber base is doing over there. Cannot imagine it is trending up. That was such a great board years ago. Sad what Kim did to it.

    It's cute that Dave thinks this started with the Tyrone hangover.

    This shit started when Gilby wasn't given the interim tag in 2002 (if not even sooner than that).

    Also, hugs and kisses to you Dave. I appreciate the FREE PUB!

    This fanbase is fractured and I fail to see how the chasm will ever be fixed. As far as I'm concerned, we're following the trend of Minnesota with a little more success. But at least both programs have shiny new stadiums right?

    The solution is simple: Stop hiring Chan Gailey clones and start hiring Jim Harbaugh clones.

    I think UW is going to have to actually find a great coach out there. Not some unproven commodity with a good coaching tree or some "name" coach, but some guy like James was, laboring in obscurity at a place like Kent State. Of course, the script is continuing to play out as expected so... yeah.

    Who do you think runs our AD? Stanford? Oregon?

    The majority of our fanbase are ok with things now and fans like us are sadly in the minority. We crave Mike Lude clones, we crave Don James clones, and we desire a style of football that, simply put, doesn't jive with the emasculation of not only our university but of Seattle itself. That died when we felt the need to hire ADs and coaches based on how awesome we looked from a politically correct perspective. I just wish there was as much success with the football team as we seem to have developed year in and year out with things like volleyball, softball,crew, golf, or cross country.
