Was that the money grab?DerekJohnson said:Hugh is paid to give his opinion and he gives it. I've never detected any smugness. I remember last October when Condotta interviewed me for my last book and in the comments section there were a handful of remarks along the lines of "Derek sure seems to think a lot of himself... What a smug jerk.. etc.", and I was thinking... "huh???" So people can project things into a situation that aren't really there, and I feel like you're doing that with Hugh.

I am curious how a guy like Hugh Millen with years of playing experience, and a student of the game is generally so wrong.
He speaks of his endless hours of watching film and he still can't get things right. How about his bashing of Russell and Petey. I remember before the start of last season he sadi the Hawks would go 6-10 with Russell as the starter and that Petey made moves just to rock the boat. Petey is too unconventional for Hughey, and it bugs him.
I think Hugh could benefit from taking a step back from the game and look in mirror. He has lost sight of what Husky football is about, and has settled into the belief that UW has the best play caller in nation and the most scenic stadium. Neither win Championships. If he going to continue to do HUsky honks after the games he can't patch in by phone, it makes for terrible radio.
I mean an average fan can watch a few hours of a game and seemingly be more accurate.
Hugh bagged on Price all last year about not making reads and never critiqued the fact the Sark's passing offense just isn't very good. When Locker couldn't throw the ball it was always the WR's and the o-line's fault. He would say WR's couldn't run simple routes based on not being able to read the defense.
Maybe over analyzing is his problem? I used to enjoy listening to his hardcore football segment, but now I am not sure his motivations. Mitch is the only guy to call him on his BS.
There certainly needs to be some new blood put on the airwaves for Husky football, and I don't mean Damon Huard.

Because Hugh's a rasssist. . . . . whahhhhhhh!
Enough already.
Because media organizations in Seattle are so tolerant of overt racists?
Just stop.
