What fucking difference is #turnoversalmon going to make? We will lose to Cal. We always lose to Cal.Doog_de_Jour said:I hate to be like the Greek prophetess Cassandra here, but if #turnoversalmon catches on we’re? DEFINITELY losing to Cal.
And I’ll fucking put all the blame on Dennis! -
Found out yesterday that the ‘turnover salmon’ shit is real. Haha. While I like the idea of having something, that’s pretty fucking lame, even by campy Seattle standards. Maybe huskie fans can learn something from our robo duck disaster.

Technically gifted writing.creepycoug said:I think Washington's brand is the no-brand brand. The reason for this is that the culture of this place is too aloof and insecure for a brand. Brands are earned, and they are either flattering or goofy. Washington fans are too realistic for a faux flattering brand, and way too proud for a goofy one.
The program is supported by a sour puss and resentful fan base of pasty white sun dodgers who as a group are insanely yet quietly covetous of the attention received by other programs. "We're just as prestigious as they are," is the standard self-talk of this band of malcontents. Convinced they have all the goods to be among the most popular girls in school, the world tells them they're "not too bad". In the face of this disappointment, their northern European-influenced sense of dignity will not allow them to complain too loudly lest they make a spectacle.
Somewhat counterintuitively, this psychological pathos of delicate and wounded pride is the derivation of the odd deference this group shows to other programs whose numbers overwhelm their own and from whom they long for respect. If Washington has a brand, it's "USC really respects us!" Or, "Did you know you can come to our games by boat!!!??!!!"
The Promethean plight of the Washington fan is his own identity and self-image.
