The life of a broken Dwag

After Stanford--correction: after the three seasons leading up to Stanford, I decided that Husky football under Chris Petersen is making me a worse person (angry, bitter), and it's just not worth it. Not abandoning fandom or anything, but I'm going to keep things at arm's length and only watch games if there's absolutely nothing else to do or after the fact if I read about them winning and not playing in a manner that makes me want to kill everybody in the vicinity.

In light of this new life strategy, I found myself on my way to Home Depot (it was lovely) a little before 3:00 on Saturday. "Game's probably getting over, so I guess I can turn on the radio and see if the score is something that would make me want to watch this shitfest later." Flip on the radio, and I've underestimated how much time would be left in the game. Everyone was celebrating a touchdown on the opening 3rd quarter drive to make the lead 28-14. "Ho-lee-fuck. I was right: Pete's pissed, took this game serious, and brought the plunger."

By the time I got to the store, the mighty Death Row Defense had grabbed ankles to make it a one score game again, the offense's red zone woes returned to leave four points on the table and settle for a field goal, and I'm off to go pick up a mountain of conduit and some fittings.

And right in the middle of rounding all of this stuff up is when I suddenly have to take one of those "right now" shits. In the nasty Home Depot bathroom. But this is the world we live in: One can be blowing ass in a disgusting public restroom, sure, but at least he can be doing so while watching his Dwags play some football! So I get out my phone and find a stream.

I kid you not that this is the only play of Oregon at Washington that I watched:

3rd and 1. Up by only three. Fourth quarter. In serious need of momentum. Skinny fucking Eason playing split end. Fourth string running back lined up to take wildcat snap. "FUCK YOU, PETERSEN! This is another loss!"

I tried to shut it off in time, but didn't get to the back arrow before witnessing Pleasant (and, simultaneously, the toilet at Home Depot) getting blown up.

That one play, and the circumstances surrounding my viewing of it, are like a Cliffs Notes version of three seasons of Husky football for me. I just can't take this shit anymore.

And held it for the next two days straight, too.

There is some skepticism from the rabble but that is how I approach Husky football these days. I like to watch a win with a fresh bowl and a bottle of wine. Still one of life's simple pleasures.

But I can't take losing anymore. I am full Jerry West. I need to be doing something else while the game unwinds and then decide if it is worth watching.

Attending the games in recent years has been hard because you have to sit there and take it while the boys wander around listless and losing.

Over 50 years of watching football and I can almost call the outcome at the kick off. Its a curse to be honest

The only play of UW football I saw in all of '18 was Henry missing two short FG at end of regulation in Autzen. Which I guess was 3 plays, but only 1 was real, and WGAF. Was all I needed to see to turn it back off.

Welcome to the club.

I’m so sorry @1to392831weretaken. Like you I’m keeping football at arms length. As Buddhists say, attachment is the cause of suffering.

The support group meets on Tuesdays. Free coffee and donuts. All are welcome.
Me: "Hi, my name is digits, and I'm a Huskyholic."
Them: "How long have you been in recovery, digits?"
Me: "Since December 7th, 2008, so nearly eleven years now. Problem is, I keep relapsing."
Them: "It's OK. Relapsing is part of the process. Are you working the steps?"
Ha! I’m imagining the scenes out of the start of Fight Club.

Was honestly posting this exact .gif when I saw yours. Great minds and all that....

Oh, @RobertPaulsonDawg is still available.

After Stanford--correction: after the three seasons leading up to Stanford, I decided that Husky football under Chris Petersen is making me a worse person (angry, bitter), and it's just not worth it. Not abandoning fandom or anything, but I'm going to keep things at arm's length and only watch games if there's absolutely nothing else to do or after the fact if I read about them winning and not playing in a manner that makes me want to kill everybody in the vicinity.

In light of this new life strategy, I found myself on my way to Home Depot (it was lovely) a little before 3:00 on Saturday. "Game's probably getting over, so I guess I can turn on the radio and see if the score is something that would make me want to watch this shitfest later." Flip on the radio, and I've underestimated how much time would be left in the game. Everyone was celebrating a touchdown on the opening 3rd quarter drive to make the lead 28-14. "Ho-lee-fuck. I was right: Pete's pissed, took this game serious, and brought the plunger."

By the time I got to the store, the mighty Death Row Defense had grabbed ankles to make it a one score game again, the offense's red zone woes returned to leave four points on the table and settle for a field goal, and I'm off to go pick up a mountain of conduit and some fittings.

And right in the middle of rounding all of this stuff up is when I suddenly have to take one of those "right now" shits. In the nasty Home Depot bathroom. But this is the world we live in: One can be blowing ass in a disgusting public restroom, sure, but at least he can be doing so while watching his Dwags play some football! So I get out my phone and find a stream.

I kid you not that this is the only play of Oregon at Washington that I watched:

3rd and 1. Up by only three. Fourth quarter. In serious need of momentum. Skinny fucking Eason playing split end. Fourth string running back lined up to take wildcat snap. "FUCK YOU, PETERSEN! This is another loss!"

I tried to shut it off in time, but didn't get to the back arrow before witnessing Pleasant (and, simultaneously, the toilet at Home Depot) getting blown up.

That one play, and the circumstances surrounding my viewing of it, are like a Cliffs Notes version of three seasons of Husky football for me. I just can't take this shit anymore.
I was working in sinks and toilets that day. You should have stopped by and said hi!

You moved from Lowe’s to Home Depot?

Disagree.

I’ve found the Home Depot bathroom to be quite well maintained.
