Doog was originally meant to mean "Dawg coog", in that they are the UW equivalent of a coog. They care more about Oregon or Wazzu losing than anything positive with UW. The Jilted Ducks thread is a classic example of doog.
However, the term is used frequently outside this context, especially in times of genuine or faux excitement. Those feel more like the old Posi/Nega arguments of the mid-2000s.
Thoughts?
You seem to have taken it personally. You’re probably right to have done so. -
Dooging is the refusal or inability to keep it real, to call a spade a spade, etc. See: Broadcastingdoog calling UW basketball getting blown out at home by an Oregon squad that traveled 7 players "a great effort". Doogs will make excuses for everything, denying the reality beating them in the face.
If Oregon had hired DeBoer, for example, imagine the non stop dooging around here about hiring some nobody from the Mountain West. But since the shoe is on the other foot, the forecast completely changes. That's dooging. He's the same coach today he was a month ago, but depending on what color tie he's wearing everything changes. If Oregon hires Aranda(they won't) it will be "lulz, he won 2 games in 2020", but if UW had hired him it would have been a grand slam.
And yes, the doog is as strong here today as it ever was or is on dawgman or bdtw. See: Broadcastingdoog, bill, haie, btp, huskyjw, insincere, greenriver, etc, etc, etc. People who derive their own egos from the rivalry and are unable to accept certain realities without their world crashing down.
It bums me out, because I DO care and have zero shame admitting it. This place used to be where doogs came to get eviscerated, where the shit wasn't tolerated, yet now dooging is mainstream even here. It's why I poast here instead of on the quook sites, because there used to be so many people who appreciated keeping it real. Alas. -

So we can blame DDY and PGOS for undermining the culture and heritage of HH?dnc said:DDY and PGOS both used it for anyone they disagreed with and they were on opposite ends of most arguments so pretty much lost all meaning after that.
Far overused term.

Of course the derivative is coog, and the first meaning was, as said, being more concerned with another (better) program losing than they are about their program winning. This thought process is rooted in the fact that their program is so fucking hopeless that they know winning is unrealistic, they resort to all they have: enjoying the other program doing badly.
As time went on, it made its way west and became a description of a pollyanna DWAG fan, who is not only naively and excessively optimistic, but is so fucking biased that they can't see past their purple nose. Washington is great all the time, and when they're not they still are.
Then it morphed again to describe the DWAG who applies that same bias, but focuses it against against Cuog! and, more often, Oregon. This is the fan who would say Joe Montana is overrated if he played for the Ducks. This is the guy who truly delights in hearing that Marcus Mariota really wanted to be a Dawg!
They're all related. The term does get used too liberally.

Doog in the sense of posi/nega? Of course, that's part of the joke, we are all doogs to some degree at heart. Hopium to once again return to the peak heights we? have reached before.
Doog in the sense of pollyanna? Not me, find where I've dooged over our MWC hire. I'm firmly in the he sucks until he doesn't and LIPO camp. I will say this place has shifted tone a bit with the influx of doogman new fish idiots looking to pay for insider information.
Doog in the sense of Oregon losing more than I care about winning? Take a quick look in the mirror qook. You spend most of your tim on this board talking about shameless doogs and spend very little tim talking about Oregon football "that you don't care about". The rest of us can spend five posts laughing about Oregon's downfall. Run along little brother.
