Mad Son's Ramblings: 10-16-13
"We just don't belong among the best teams in football," writes Mad Son in this week's Ramblings. "And if we as a fan base and program are alright with these results and don't take action against them, then that is a statement of mediocrity-acceptance."

I might have to start calling Doogs "quarter-brains" instead.
I like that. -
I'm angry too. At the fan base that accepts mediocrity, but especially with the UW administration and AD. It seems not enough people give a shit about the program, at least not the one's with authority to fix it.
The WA football program is a god damned orphanage. -
Your best effort.

GRAA.
Quarter brains = win. -
"I truly fear what becomes of Husky football if we were to win on Saturday."
I get where you're going and believe the time for learning on the job is over. As a lifelong UW fan and alum I can't bring myself to sacrifice wins to force a coaching change. If (granted a huge IF) the team went 10-2 I would hope fans would be excited about that. -
10-2 would only get me excited if it got Sark a new job somewhere else.DawgGrad95 said:"I truly fear what becomes of Husky football if we were to win on Saturday."

Sark has proven he's not the guy to compete in the Pac-12 North consistently, much less the guy who can win Rose Bowls and natties.
I don't understand why UW fans succumb to short term thinking and hope instead of looking at the real big picture. I would think even a quarter-brain could do better. -
Maybe better to call 'em penny-brains. They ain't worth two bits.TierbsHsotBoobs said:

Operating under the assumption that differences in the number of wins this year will affect the number of wins in the future, I am happy to sacrifice wins in the short term for wins in the long term. Like yeah, if I had the option of every game that Sark coaches from here on forward is a win then I would choose that in a heart beat. I do not hate Sark - I hate that under Sark's guidance this program is not on track to return to greatness in my lifetime. If he isn't going to succeed then I want him to hugely and clearly fail to expedite his departure and thus allow us to get a winner in as soon as possible.DawgGrad95 said:"I truly fear what becomes of Husky football if we were to win on Saturday."

I hate Sark: Dude talks a ton of shit but never backs any of it up and never takes accountability when he fucks up.Mad_Son said:

It's like having Auburndawg as the actual coach of the program. -
I'm calling bullshit on this. I was at that Houston viewing party vs Arizona and there were at least 25 people at Nick's and there was plenty of enthusiasm around the program. Quite a few people were telling me they were going to make the trip to Seattle for the game which might explain the low turnout. Give Ryne and his gang more credit.

I think I was pretty clear I only went to Illinois and Oregon (and like a complete idiot Idaho State before realizing that they didn't carry the Pac-12 network). I can not comment on Arizona and what the enthusiasm from others was at that point in time... -
Also, are you talking about Nick's on Wilcrest? If so that is not where I have met up with people...bw_dawg said:I'm calling bullshit on this.
