    Fuck all of you that were at UW in the early nineties. That must have fucking ruled.

    I got 0-12.

    It did. You have no idea how much fun it was. Of course it was also a curse. Been waiting for almost 30 fucking years to get back to that level of play.
    No curse. It was the UW Admin. not having the balls to support their legendary HC. The fact they allowed the Pac-10 to pile it on top of us is unconscionable. Shame on them.
    I meant curse in a sense that once you get a taste of watching a team like that and it gets fucked up (regardless of the reason), it's painful to watch the shitty product on the field. Versus if your? team was shitty from the get-go (like the cuog) and the standards have always been low.

    probably 6-7 years old and my first memory is sitting with my dad watching the Don James Coaches Show on KOMO (with the fat host?) where he breaks down all the plays. At first I thought it was boring, but then I understood the game and enjoyed it each week.

    The salmon colored suit was my favorite fashion choice for coach. Show was hosted by Bruce King I think. As a gay man, the Husky Fever intro song that they sung to Boogie Fever really resonated with me as well. Sometimes that song just sticks in my head and won't quit. Husky fever, with another touchdown! Husky fever, you know its going around!

    As for the first game I remember, that would be the 1985 Orange Bowl just for the party that happened for the game. My dad was lit. I will never forget that whole day. The first game I remember actually caring about was actually the 1987 Independence Bowl against Tulane. Chris Chandler was a big deal in my house because he was a Snohomish co. kid (my dad and hence me always pulled for the local north end kids) and it was a bowl game at the end of kind of a shitty year. I was 8 so any bowl game would have actually been a big deal to me. We won a boring game against Mac Brown and the mighty Tulane green Wave 24-12 I think. The first game I went to was the 1991 apple cup. I went with my friends family and they were shocked and amazed that little Knowledge could state the number, height, weight and name of every player on the team. I have long since burned that information and most of my 20's out with liquor and drugs.
