Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Message from a soon-to-be former Hardcore Poster.

Just received this message from a guy (who shall remain anonymous) that I've interacted with over the years on DM and HH: "Just a quick personal note to say thanks for your perspectives on UW football over the years. I haven't always agreed with you, but I've appreciated your passion for the program. I had hoped this site would be a place to have fun discussing football, but even the few promising threads ultimately devolve into insults and name calling. While I certainly don't always agree with Kim, after hanging out here for a while, he has a point: some of the shtick gets old after a while. The older I get, the more I judge activities by whether I enjoy them, and I simply don't enjoy having my intelligence questioned by a bunch of internet idiots. Perhaps I will catch you in the future at another site somewhere between DM and HH. Anyway, carry on the good fight and feel free to drop an email if you want to discuss Dawgs."

The guy that sent me this note is NO fan of kim or any of the other jerks over at DM.

Look, I'm not going to advocate for people to be censored (like the d-bags that ruined DM), nor am I going to lecture anybody. I will only say that this website has the opportunity to become a REAL and UNFILTERED alternative to DM. The problem is that a few folks on here insist on turning threads into name-calling and 8th-grade-level cursing contests, or just an opportunity to 'zing' other people.

I'll be the first to say that at times I've been guilty of that BS as well.

I guess my only suggestion is that some folks should decide if they want this to become the website that ALL OF US have described at one time or another - a place of INTELLIGENT analysis where INTENSE criticism and UNSCRIPTED opinion is welcome - or do we want HH to be just a place of one-liners, biting insults, and contests to tear down others. I realize that it's often both, but I tend to agree with this guy that it tilts a little too much toward the latter.

Just a thought. Peace. Now fire away.

    Grundle you worthless cunt, allow me to explain something to you. The Fire Marshal and the rest of us actually add something of value here. You're just part of the 81% of griswold.com refugees who go largely unnoticed here, moreover you wouldn't be missed if you diaff.

    Pack up your shit, go and spend a special night buttfucking ballz while you guys formulate departure plans, and get on the fuck back to doogienights.com

    Well thoought out poast. I would like to add I think one of the biggest problems is people really do take the internet too seriously. If someone tells your to DIAF on a message board do you really give a shit? Why? It is something that is so stupid to say I don't understand why someone would take offense to it. If anything the person saying it looks stupid and thats the joke.

    As far as football discussion goes I find it hard to generate a bunch of it since we still have the same brand of mediocre football we did 3 years ago after the first 7-6. We beat up scrubs, lose to elite programs, pinch out one surprise victory every year, shit the bed against a team we should have killed, suck on the road, and end up 7-6.

    Sark hasn't done anything to show us things really are looking up to where talking X's and O's is fun again. If the Huskies were really a top 10 team this year I would think this place would be much more active with overall football discussion. However, there are only so many times you can say Bishop Sankey is elite, Keith Price is undervalued, and our defense is better than it use to be but still just ok.

    tl;dr kick off your shoes, relax, and try and have some fun poasting. If you can't stand what someone posts then ignore them. The internet can be a lot of fun if you learn how to seperate it from real life.

    Sounds like somebody couldn't handle the ups and downs of the off season at Hardcore Husky.

    Sounds like somebody couldn't handle the ups and downs of the off season at Hardcore Husky.

    This thread has become exhausting. But, it does ease the frustration.

    Bring on the coed matchups.

    It's rare that I disagree with Boobs but in this case, I do and here's why.

    It's true that we've been saying the same thing for years and that we've been consistently right ever since Rick was fired. If it's unintelligent to keep repeating ourselves to the ignant (Hi PL_SS!) masses of Doogs, then Boobs is correct.

    I believe the conversations that take place are intelligent because unlike Kim or Eklund or F3, we're not simply trying to appease the coaches and AD so we can maintain access. Unlike the Doogs, we are blinded by unquestioning loyalty or simple ignorance. The intelligent conversations break down why Sark and Pool Boy suck. Why Emmert was and still is the worst enemy of UW and college football.

    That's why this place still has intelligent yet crude conversations about UW football.

    If you can't see that the passive aggressive tactic used by @Anonymous summarizes everything that is wrong with Husky football (and the state of Washington in general), I can't help you.

    If said poster did post this, you and I both know not only what the responses would be but also who they would be from.

    The acronyms and inside jokes (the ones I actually know) can be funny as hell at the right moments but this board falls into some trends where that's all you read and to the unfamiliar types, I'm not sure there's much reason why they'd actively participate on this board.

    Many people dog on the Passions and the Steve Bowman's of this board. I personally found their POVs on Dawgman and on this site great but even when they provide their thoughts, they are ridiculed at every opportunity. Like him or not, Passion has always been a great poster on all things Husky football.

    If said poster revealed himself, I think it would be great because I pretty much agree with everything he wrote to Passion.

    I know the OP is an HH meme, but it's sad I can't figure out if all the subsequent posts in the thread are original or part of the schtick that's just been extended over the years

    Since you are offering I have always wondered where your name originates from. I am also new to all this lingo and have figured out at least 81% of it myself just lurking but still haven't figured out your name yet.

    Look if this team was 6-0 I'm sure this forum would be praising the team, talking X's and O's and genuinely fired up for this ASU game. That's the great thing about the Rose Bowl chase is that every single game is HUGE. I remember in 2000 every week I was so fired up I couldn't wait until Saturday came.

    While this year despite the 4-0 start it felt like 2011 all over again where they are feasting on a front loaded schedule. I mean we are in year five in October and already eliminated from the Rose Bowl picture. At least Lambo waited until November before getting eliminated.

    As for the jokes? Honestly that's why I post on here. Talking about a program that doesn't care about football or it's REAL fans(yea I went there Doogs fuck off) can get old really quick.

    We all use sports as a way to get away form life. It's supposed to be a healthy distraction. The football product for a decade plus now hasn't provided me with that. At least this forums actually has posts on here where I literally laugh out loud.

    If you don't like the jokes it's a free country just skip the threads. We had plenty of football discussions last week. I also noticed in my time on football message boards that those who always demand more football talk never provide any football talk. Sure they think they do but they provide basic shit that anyone with half a brain knows.

    No offense Passion but you never did seem like you fit in here. You take things way too seriously and get offended too easily. When you or anyone else ask questions like where can I watch the game at? You'll get some shit. When you say NO EXCUSES! Then immediately make up EXCUSES you'll get shit on. When you claim a conference is terrible and has 8 teams ranked in the top 25 you'll get shit on.

    I like the fact that on here if someone you disagree with you can tell them that. Unlike Doogman if you get in a disagreement even if you are right with certain posters your posts will be deleted and you'll just be gone. No warning.

    Thisi s 81% accurate. Maybe some of us need to take a walk on the beach with the wife and gain a little perspective. Most of us probably should DIAFF or TBS a little less.

    I say HH wins rather easily, say 34-17?

    After 23 times of the same joke it just isn't funny anymore.
