Happy Thanksgiving to the Fucktards

DerekJohnson

Well it's that time of year again. As the recent coaching search has shown, there's still much interest in the UW football program. We've seen it in the traffic increase here as well as in the flurry of donations that have come in, even though it's not August (Fundraiser Month). Seriously, it's a shot in the arm to see the support and gives me motivation to keep running the site and podcasting with the Skagit Bros. (as I continue the fight to rekindle my love for Husky Football.)

Tomorrow also marks Hardcore Husky's 9th anniversary, as well as the birthday of a certain Uber driver.




Here's to a festive holiday season and the selection of either Matt Campbell or Kalen Deboer as our new coach.

If it's Wilcox, we might as well just shut the site down.

Thanks Taft!

Hardcore Husky going strong since 2012!

Typing that out makes me realize how much of my life has been wasted on these boreds when I could’ve been out taking a walk in nature to get some much needed perspective. Oh well, who gives a fuck?

What happened with HHB and when it did all really begin?

WDWHA

IIRC, the HHB website started in late 2007 with lots of hot Mora action and breaking news that Stalin was onboard. It was soon followed by lots of reported posts like this one from Grandpa Race:

No more insulting iDawg and me about podcasts or Mora. Don't forget which board you are on. Hint - this isn't Dawgman. Recruits and their parents read this board. Knock it off or you'll get ******d.

Paying customers come here to get inaccurate inside info, not a bunch of Asian porn and Canuck jokes.

And what the fuck is an iDawg? Does he/him/it poast here?

Kids like @backthepack have no idea the existential dread gazing upon two decades plus of bookmarks knowing 81% are dead.

I was upset when I had to leave HHB and poast here. I though HHB had a better name than animal porn

There was a large period of time where the OG Half Brains wandered in the desert looking for a home until @DerekJohnson started this shithole.

Yes, I think it was about 18 months

Hardcore Husky launched on November 26, 2012. In December, we had 28,000 page views for the month. It was basically me, Race, Sven, Nacho, Damone, Mooser42 and a handful of others talking to each other. I was a little bit worried, and relentlessly marketed on Facebook ("Come to the cool boards") and emailed and called everyone I knew. By July 2013, Vanilla was calling me because they noticed the rapid growth of the site and wanted me to upgrade to their Enterprise level at $1,500 a month. Part of the growth was in thanks to K-Grizzle, who that summer had started banning people again and giving time outs.

We also had our first sponsor in August 2013, which was a bounty hunter who met with me at a Chinese restaurant and insisted on sitting so he could see who was coming through the front door.

What site was the one where yhe message board link wasnt obvious and it was almost you had to be told by someone where to click to get in. I remember being told it was a message board where you could cuss up a storm and talk shit and real football talk without big brother. After hearing that i was wanting in. I was done with dawgman wanting something different and also because i was in the "free damone" camp and was getting too many timeouts.

HuskyHalfBrains.com existed from 2007-2010. There was HHBv.2 but it didn't last very long. I think it was shut down somewhere around March 2011.

Damn. I thought I’d get some FREE PUB…not fall into the “handful of others” catch-all category.

You were front row center. You haven't been around much in recent years so you didn't pop into mind as I went off the top of my head
