Why didn't the Seattle Times ever do this with the Huskies in the last decade?

Geoff Baker is a good beat writer. I think some in here have said they wished he was the Huskies beat writer as he does his job and isn't worried about access.

He's a little bit of an Aubbie flip flopper. He will be hard on the Mariners and the players, but whenever they go on a 3 game win streak or Smoak hits 2-3 HR's in a week he goes right back to pumping them up.

If Geoff Baker covered UW instead of Condooga and Jood with the same level of professionalism as he leveled against the Ms and their front office there would have been a real journalistic counterbalance against Doogman doogism over the past 10 years. Geoff Baker is a fucking stud reporter with huge grapefruit fucking balls.

Why would anyone at the Times ever do an expose that could end up being beneficial for UW?

I figure an indifferent coog (Condotta) covering the team is the best we could possibly hope for.

Not on the same scale, but Jerry actually had a good piece on Saturday and Withers last Monday

The only problem is that they wait until Sark LEAVES!!! to do so. IOW - when the stakes are low or nonexistent

Pussified, passive aggressive Seattle media in a nutshell

Or they wait until the teams having a bunch of success and then try and pull the rug out.

Geoff let the M's die a few times before he came up with this. USSM has been on Geoff's case a few times claiming he was gojng easy on management and pining for access.

Who is worse, Howard Lincoln or Jack Z? It was easily HL but now Jack Z sounds like he's a fatter Dick Nixon:
