HHB Glossary of Terms DerekJohnsonDerekJohnson Posts: 4,695 July 2013 edited March 7 in Classic Threads Given that multiple newcomers have expressed confusion to me about what the regulars here are sometimes talking about, I thought it would be helpful to construct a glossary of terms for reference. Please feel free to add and amend as needed.
Doog An alleged Husky fan who is obsessed with Oregon. Would like to see Oregon lose as much (or more than) seeing Washington win. The UW equivalent of a Coog.
It's also over-the-top excitement for anything that is currently happening in the program, regardless of what it is. Kick ass pressers, FREE PUB!, incremental progress, best recruiter in the nation, best assistants in the nation, molder of men, five tough questions, no rap music at practice, rap music at practice, finally a coach with discipline, finally players coach, Gilby/Ty/Sark is a breath of fresh air....
What I'm hearing... Origin: Kim Grinolds / Dawgman.com Explanation: Always the manner in which Grinolds trumpets "inside information" to his subscribers. Over time, this became a source of ridicule because of the astonishingly high degree of inaccuracy of his information.
Awfully warm for February Origin: Kim Grinolds Explanation: Used as a means to belittle anyone trying to criticize Steve Sarkisian's recruiting throughout the year.
I haven't moved!! Origin: Race Bannon and the Husky Half Brain Podcast Explanation: During times of notoriously bad phone reception, Race would shout this at co-host iDawg. This eventually led to jokes about iDawg operating with a 24k modem and Race owning an oversized Yugoslavian phone from the 1970s.
It was funny the first 23 times.. Now, not so much... Origin: Kim Grinolds and Mike Damone Explanation: Kim Grinolds' means of telling Mike Damone that his repetitive jokes were wearing thin
Popping off Origin: Washington-Oregon rivalry Explanation: As Oregon passed Washington in football status, Husky fans could always rely on telling Duck fans to "go win a Rose Bowl then pop off." Over time, this morphed into millions of different interchangeable uses.
Belly laughs in the media room Origin: Ruth Robbins Explanation: During the heyday of the original Husky Half Brains site, Ruth Robbins of RealDawg became a regular for several weeks. As a means of belittling the HHB crowd, she spoke of some aspect of HHB being a subject of big belly laughs in the media room.
You think you know, but you don't Origin: Ruth Robbins Explanation: As Half Brains would get into debates with Ruth, she would counter by telling them their sources were no good.
I have all the screenshots I need Origin: Ruth Robbins Explanation: As Ruth made her departure from the HHB boards, her parting shot was to taunt the crowd by saying "I have all the screen shots I need." One of the most beloved HHBisms of all time.
If A happens it'll be interesting, but if B happens it'll also be interesting Origin: Kim Grinolds Explanation: After telling his subscribers for two years that his sources were indicating that the NCAA would drop the hammer on Oregon, the Ducks escaped with barely a slap on the wrist. As the HHB crowd began crowing about this catastrophically embarrassing "What I'm hearing" gone awry, Grinolds began amending his posts and hedging his bets when giving out subsequent new inside info.
If you want to be critical about (fill in the blank) that's fine, but if you're going to be negative, you're gone Origin: Kim Grinolds Explanation: Grinolds' illogical means of trying to sound like free speech was allowed on his message boards, when in reality they weren't
Hot Blonde Oregon Intern Origin: Kim Grinolds Explanation: One of Grinolds' sources he met at the VMAC that gave him inside information about the NCAA's imminent decision to drop the hammer on Oregon
If you like your (Fill in the blank), you can keep it Origin: President Barack Obama Explanation: Obama infamously and falsely promised,"If you like your current insurance plan, you can keep it." This has morphed into many Half Brain uses. A particular favorite of Race Bannon.
Meet me at the 7-11 on Aurora in the U-District Origin: Unknown Explanation: A non-existent location for internet tuff guys to meet for fist fights and brawling
SAY IT TO HIS FACE!!!1!!! Origin: brents (RIP) Explanation: A common refrain from the late dawgman poster brents, directed toward anyone saying something critical of someone else on the interwebs

81% Origin: Scott Eklund Explanation: During the post-Willingham coaching search, Dawgman shamelessly had photos of Jim Mora on their coach search primer. As many HHBs and a good deal of Husky fans were interested in seeing the one-time Don James student return to Husky Stadium to roam the sidelines, Dawgman was hearing that Mora was increasingly likely to be the next coach. When pressed to give the chance of Mora being the guy, Eklund replied: "81%" HouhuskyFire_Marshall_BillHe_Needs_More_TimeTommySQC Flag Quote greenbloodgreenblood Posts: 1,478 July 2013 Great, but why do you call Sark pool boy?

"If you want to gloat now about how wrong it all was - fantastic. Knock yourself out.
But if you're saying he just made stuff up - you're wrong"
"I'll take criticism all day long, but when posters out here say we're just making stuff up............well, they're just making stuff up"
"Kim a journalist? ROTFLMAO
Man, I wonder how long people have been here. Kim is no more a journalist than I am a photographer."
"If you can't handle the rumor mill, my suggestion is to get off the internet"

*gurgle* "I've been to a lot of classy stadiums; Oregon's is the least classy I've ever been to. That's not what sports is supposed to be about." - Jim Lambright
The term "Meet me at the 7-11..." always reminds me of GREEN DAY's lyric: "At the center of the earth in the parking lot of the 7-11 where I was taught(shot)" from American Idiot's city of the damned. It always seems to fit.
is one of my many arguments with feathers over the years, he said tOSU hasn't played smashmouth football since Woody Hayes. Eddie George was just a decoy Fetters you retarded fat bastard

You either get put on timeout, your posts moderated, or there's an agree to disagree.
Fetters wasn't a dawgman employee then. And i won EVERY argument as fetters was a Barnes and Noble employee with zero knowledge of college football. That's what cracks me up. He acts like a football encyclopedia, and he's not. The few things he did learn was poaching my shit. Sound familiar?
Back then I fucking punished that ignant fuck and didn't get banned. Kim took over and it all went to hell. Do any of you guys go back more than 5 years?

Interesting...... Fetters and Barnes & Noble. Even here in cowboy-sodbuster Boise, B&N's clerks are know-nothing nerds. You might remember that Fetters is the statsman,..... always backing up his football ignorance with statistics. I got tired of pointing out to him that stats are traditionally for losers such as WSU who customarily come out of games on the short end of the only stat that matters, the final score.
