Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

    Hey @CallMeBigErn go fuck yourself.

    I downvote melodrama. It's something my grandpa instilled in me. Blame him. RIP Gramps.
    If we can't have melodramatic freakouts then I'll kill myself (lulz).

    Please do not read a game thread. Your finger will get tired just giving me downvotes. And if Passion is in it, your laptop will explode.

    And we all thought that the magic formula was just win. Turns out it's a little more involved than that. Big boys win AND have an attention grabbing pitch. Guess we're halfway there.

    Disagree on the halfway part. UW has lost every meaningful bowl and non-conference game since Pete has arrived, starting with BSU.

    Trending in the right direction, gotta win something meaningful AND cord wood the P12.

    I stand with Swaye. I want bleach drinkin' melodramatic freakouts. We've barely even started and what was once a penciled-in who's who of possibilities has turned into a list of blank spaces and question marks, guys we haven't even heard of yet or guys who will likely not even take an OV to Washington before they commit to OU or TCU, or Illinois of course.

    My only real hopes at this point lie at WR and OL. I mean, RB would take a dream scenario, though I suppose technically still possible. DL? Bad. OLB/DE? Already committed elsewhere before we got our first cup of coffee ready to start looking through these recruiting lists. CB? See OLB/DE. Now we're combing the West Texas desert and the Central Valley to find 3-star guys who might be decent. S? See CB. TE: We accidentally set our search filter to "220-lb. white guy".

    This.

    To be fair though, for TE we did get Redman, who in addition to having the best name in the history of best names, is a complete beast.

    If we had beaten Pedo or Urbs our? brand would be immensely skronger. Whether we like it or not, Oree-gon's (pre flood) 2010- 14 run is still better than our? 2016- 18 one and the kidz are old enuff to remember.
