    Still waiting on my first shout out.

    You got one on an early podcast. Apparently you are supposed to write a book about the death of Doogman.com and I'm supposed to write the forward.

    I normally like Chest views but gotta disagree with your stance on the ASU game.

    For lack of depth like you say that falls on the 5th year head coach since all these kids he brought in/developed.

    So yes this does ultimately fall on Sark. Team wasn't at all prepared, came out throwing non stop while ignoring Sankey like we all predicted he would do just like that dumb fuck did vs Arizona the year prior.

    The only thing I disagreed with was that playing Stanford & UO back to back wouldn't or didn't have an impact on the ASU game. I don't disagree with what Sark said taken by itself but clearly the points about a lack of depth and poor offensive performance in the first half were the reason we lost and that does fall entirely on Sark.

    I think you've gotten 2 or 3. We need to have our intern listen to everything and tally up all the shoutouts.
  • The lack of depth up front is a problem and judging by Sark's recruiting(or lackthereof) that will always be an issue.

    I saw Sark had a quote saying he wrote down in his notebook for January so they can prepare better in the offseason for the game after the Oregon/Stanford back to back.

    So going into year six he's finally going to address the annual three game losing streak. Why wasn't this taken care of in years past?

    That's the thing about this bozo it's so predictable like clock work.

    Take this week for an example. Given UCLA's youth and health issues this is a game UW should steal from them. However with Sark's road woes I have no doubt UW will find a way to lose this game.

    Oregon State the following week is yet another game that a team as talented as UW should win. However with Sark's road woes I have no doubt UW will also lose that game.

    I'm sure Doogs will blame the refs, blame Price, blame the position coach of whatever unit fucked up that game while ignoring Sark will be 7-19 on the road.

    The warning signs are there and just like in 2007 and 2003 Doogs are refusing to acknowledge facts while claiming this time it's different.

    I can get behind the idea that the team was a bit exhausted for the ASU game. Sure. But to roll over and play dead like they did...that's 100% on the coach and inexcusable in year 5.

    Especially when the coach talks shit about the ASU game being the biggest game of the season all week prior to the game.

    He said the biggest game of 2012 was Arizona. Great track record in "the biggest game of the season."

    There have been about 20 biggest game of the year/ biggest game of Sark's tenure over the four and a half years. Those cliches lost call meaning.
