You've seen me. How much hiking and kayaking do you think I do?PurpleBaze said:
If we're bashing hiking & kayaking, I'm fucking out!TommySQC said:
There's the built in excuse for not going. Next would be "My family has hiking and kayaking to do with only a few months to do it. Can't waste it on a cold weather sport like football"louism2wash said:Not sure why they don't push the start of spring practice back a month so that the weather is nicer for practices and the spring game. It's hard enough to get people to come to the actual games let along a spring game when it's windy as hell and pissing rain. Also, play the game at Memorial Stadium under the Space Needle. If you are only going to pull 10K people then play the game at a stadium that doesn't look empty. Bar options are way better around Memorial as well.
Fucking Christ. These fanbase deserves POwen
The answer may surprise you. -

I went to every Spring game under Sark and Ty, because it was an actual game. Walking around Montlake cut on a crisp spring morning with my 2 dads, we typically caught the boys in the boat first thing in the morning stomp Cal for the Windermere Cup. Nice cup of high end coffee to keep us warm (no Folgers shit). Mini tailgate, Spring game, which even got nice and sunny a few times. That was a good family Husky tradition for a while.
I tried the preview thing with Pete and it fucking sucked. My time is valuable and watching players run through drills is boring. His stubborn no fun BS killed a long running tradition that connected multiple generations of family to UW.
Guess that makes me a bad fan.
Or maybe Pete was a boring ass bitch that was scared he’d get his players hurt AND was afraid of giving away the recipe to his super secret offense too early.
This is a good decision by Coach Lake...until one of our stars snaps an ACL, and then it was a sizzle showcase that ruined the season.

IIRC they started moving towards the "Spring Preview" format towards the end of the Sark era. The last real spring game I remember was the Teeth vs Montana battle in 2011.

Don James killed the Varsity Alumni game and replaced it with an inter sqwad spring game. That wasn't popular either but the winds were blowing that way anywayThomasFremont said:I went to every Spring game under Sark and Ty, because it was an actual game.

Best ever Varsity Alumni game was the one where Sixkiller was the only healthy QB and won the job bigly -
I'm hearing that Lake is considering bringing in the current UW alumni team or an exhibition gayme...
