I should add that I ask because I'm new to UW Doogpound. Went there for the first time a couple of months ago and have only visited 3-4 times.

I don't waste my time with those jokers. They are shit tier version of Doogman and Akita. They are lowest of the Doogs.

Edit: Just read this bullshit article. Holy fuck is he trying to be like Kim. Love how he rags on Petersen then quickly says I'm not ragging on Petersen I think he's doing a good job.

Love how the fuck is questioning how Petersen handles discipline and praises Sark for how he handled ASJ and Kasen. When in reality Sark did nothing to Kasen and didn't announce ASJ until two days before the game when he was probably ruled out due to injury.

I can sort of understand Kim's agenda which is access but what fucks like these clowns or Akita's agenda? To be like Kim? Talk about living a miserable and pathetic life.

What a piece of shit article. I can't believe I even wasted my time skimming it. I love how media bitches think they deserve to know exactly what the fuck and how the fuck Peterman will do things. Peterman will continue to do things his way and won't give into these fucks and in turn, will continue to keep doogs at arms length.

The problem is there are no positive adult media role models in their lives.

Monkey see monkey do.

I'm late to the game and just read the recent Twitter fiasco by Kim. He's reached a new low and is desperate for some attention.

Not since Bob C. left, anyways. Bob was the consummate professional. As for the article, I agree with others. Mind-numbingly stupid. I guess I just don't understand the doog endgame. Juxtapose this: (A) A decidedly mediocre, middle-of-the-road coach. A coach who went 0-5 vs his rival with 5 blowouts. A coach who went 25-24 against D1 opponents. A coach who made excuses every step of the way. A coach bereft of championship-level work ethic. (B) A coach who went a staggering 92-12 at his past job. A coach who was coveted by every program in the nation. A coach who won national coach of the year honors twice. A coach who won two BCS bowls.

(A) Left the program as soon as he could for what he viewed as a better job.
(B) Came to the program after rebuffing USC, Auburn, etc., and effectively said it was time to restore order to the P12 universe.

(A) Receives an almost cult-like status from Doogs. Doogs whom, if called out, cannot point to one specific aspect of coaching (A) does well. They'll spew unquantifiable bullshit like 'he's a program builder' or something similar.

(B) Has been questioned from the very start by Doogs. Despite universal praise from outsiders and non-Doog UW fans, Doogs have been apathetic towards (B) at best and openly hostile at worst.

Why? Is this passive-aggressive douchbaggery rooted not only in their innate knowledge that their fat Armenian cult leader not only failed to deliver on any of the goods they championed him for, but also that he betrayed them by leaving for a conference rival? If so, why keep up with the slavish defense of him? Because they know, deep down, that every excuse they spat at us was bullshit. Petersen's inevitable success will sting them and shatter every doog FS defense point. Coaching is everything. Same as it ever was. Everything else is a bunch of pollyanna excuse-making.

Doogs are placing their butthurt egos over the wellbeing of the program. "The early missteps of Chris Petersen" get the fuck out of here. We can be genuinely excited for the first time since 2000 at the earliest. 1 doog is more FS than 1,000 redneck quooks and 1,000 underachieving coogs.

What a transparent piece of shit ... nothing there but bitching about not getting the access they had under Sark.

It's personal with the Doogs. They know us Nega's support the Petersen hire. They also know like we've all stated that when Petersen wins it will blow up every Doog excuse out there.

If they try to credit Sark I'll point out how Sark's wins over USC shouldn't count then since they were Ty's players.

Like you said the guy was a loser coach and he wasn't loyal at all. First opportunity to leave the program he did just that. Another thing we all said about him was he lacked character which Doogs would argue with us about yet Sark showed his lack of character by the way he left.

Noticed the players quotes about Petersen when he left vs the quotes about Sark when he left? You can't make that up.

Doogs hate facts so I don't expect them to get it. They'll always be on Petersen's ass then in 2016 when he has us established a top 15 program they'll distanced themselves from Sark and claim they loved the hire the whole time. Lather, Rinse, Repeat.

They want Petersen to fail so they can be right.

so Kim's alter-ego's now include Hoss94 and Chris Landon

That's what I gathered. They're really reaching. I had seen that side a couple of times before and it didn't seem that bad but...wow....very bush league. I like how this clown cites Dave Mahler... Hey jackass we know it's the loud mouth KJR afternoon guy with two quarters of community college education. You're not gonna fool anyone.

Meek

read the comments section and you'll gain an even deeper understanding of how stupid Chris Landon is... his readers call him out for this fucktarded hatchet job piece and yet his defense centers around how insane the fanbase will go if Petersen trends at 8-4.... yes, we'll go INSANE if the new coach is at worst 1 win better than the fat armenian co-ed chasing philanderer (allegedly) who says whatever he thinks makes people like him versus acting like a fucking D1 coach with a serious job to do that doesn't include appeasing the "bloggers" who have no credentials (although press passes oddly)... fucking chris landon needs to find the gas can and matches for his pathetic website.

What a fuckwad. Just win some fucking football games. These dipshits act like it is their right to know every little detail so they can be twisters. If Peetamus doesn't want to tell some skinny jeans wearing little rat what his plan is on a personal matter between player discipline, he has every right to do so.

I don't even think these morons actually like Sark all that much. They just can't stand the thought of Petersen succeeding because it'll prove we were right.

Lear Pilot is ok but the rest of them are John. Minions - enough said.

For those idiots that don't understand the difference between Timu, String/Miles, and Enewally, let's go back to rudimentary understanding of what each did and how it applies to the football team:

1) John Timu basically was trying to make an extra buck by running a scheme centered around parking passes. College kids are always trying to find a way to make a quick buck. Add that to a college athlete that is normally short on money and you get a pretty easy case to understand. My guess is that Timu pretty much admitted to what he did to Petersen, realized that he was wrong, explained why he did it, took his punishment, didn't complain about it, and worked his way back onto the team per Petersen's guidelines - which included missing the first half of Spring Ball.

2) Miles and String were involved in an incident that involved an assault by String that he pled guilty for. While Miles wasn't ultimately charged, it's hard not to view his actions throughout this as being fucktarded. Both were hit with significant penalties by Petersen of missing Spring Practice - which is particularly painful for Miles who could have used the reps. Both seem to realize their mistakes and have accepted the punishments and conditions set forth by Petersen. How can we say this? Neither have left the program at this point. If the plan was to dismiss either or that the plan to bring back into the program was so substantial to be difficult to achieve, then you'd expect a transfer. And for what it is worth, Petersen has noted that the status of each will be updated heading into Fall practice (which I expect to be that both are once again members of the team).

3) Enewally punched a teammate. If anybody has read anything about Petersen, what you realize is that he's all about TEAM TEAM TEAM. You can't be a successful team if you aren't ALL pulling on the same rope and going in the same direction. When you punch a teammate, you are essentially punching a family member. I'd be willing to bet that such an action is one of the more untolerated actions that you can do on a Petersen coached team.

It's pretty fucking simple when you look at things in this viewpoint.

The Army of Doogs banned my Rick Johnson account for saying that word. Doogs really are sensitive about the truth.

Next time I won't be so nice I'll just refer to them as dumb cunts.

Not going to waste anymore time at that site. It's just an article to get hits. You think the propaganda is bad w/ that article you should have seen those fucking doogs after the ASU game.

dhdawg

Similarly, Petersen's tendency towards muted and cliched interactions with the media have served to slightly dampen fan enthusiasm relative to what may have been possible given the initial buzz that accompanied his arrival on campus.

Petersen doesn't give kick ass pressers? Boo fucking hoo

Sarkingham

The comment section in that "article" is hilarious. Even a lot of the doogs on that site are calling out the bullshit. The only people supporting Chris "Gekko Mojo" Landon are the other writers on the blog. And even some of them can't get behind it. However, they remain united in their unwavering support of Sark.

When are Doogs going to realize a coach's personality is of very little to no importance? In all the interviews I've seen, Petersen is pretty nice and pleasant to the media anyways. He's not the prickly guy many have tried to portray him as.

Your problem is, you're letting logic and evidence get in the way. Doogs have no such issues.

So I finally got around to reading Landon's shitty column. Of course, I agree it's a thinly veiled jeremiad about lack of "media" access. But one paragraph in particular caught my eye:

I wouldn't argue that Petersen has mishandled the actual disciplining of players in any of these matters. In fact, that would be hard to do given that we don't really have full visibility to all of facts surrounding the individual incidents nor the full terms of recompense that Petersen has levied on the offenders. It is the opaqueness of these matters that constitute the greatest misstep so far in the Petersen era. Pac 12 football fans expect a certain level of transparency in how coaches manage discipline for their favorite teams. Mike Leach is famous for his "three unforgivable sins" philosophy. Sonny Dykes hasn't done everything right at Cal, but he has applied discipline in a consistent manner that has satisfied a very demanding Golden Bears fanbase. Even Steve Sarkisian applied standards during his time at UW that gave fans a sense that offenders like Kasen Williams and Austin Seferian-Jenkins were on specific programs to regain full-rights status as players on the team. It is the coaches who have been the least transparent about their methods, guys like Chip Kelly and Jeff Tedford, who have garnered the most criticism over the last few years regardless of how effective or non-effective the actual discipline really was for their teams.

This is a breathtaking display of stupidity. Landon's literally arguing that Petersen should act more like three chronic underperformers (Leach lifetime P12 record 5-13, Dykes 0-9, and Sarkisian 24-21), and less like Kelly and Tedford (each indisputably the greatest coach in the history of his program).

By all means, Coach Petersen, run the program however you see fit. Your predecessors have been cowing to the access demands of the internet "media" for close to 20 years. And look what it's bought them. I have no idea who this Landon is. But if people like Ruth and Softy and Kim are unhappy, it probably means you're doing something right.

Meek

no offense because I awesomed your poast but as of 2014 if anyone needs a primer to know that Grenolds, Ektard, Fatters, Ruth & Cook, JohnB, the UWDoogPound, Softy or Hugh are always 180 degrees from right with their pathetic agenda then you need matches and a quick trip to Chevron.
