    The best part of that article is how casual Todd acts about kicking it with Stevens and Hope Solo.

    He must not believe in gun control.

    The only thing more cocked and loaded than me in the stevens/solo residence would be Solo herself.

    An annual message board post is invariably somebody saying how the 2000 Huskies were all due to Tui. Neuheisel had nothing to do with it. It's a gross oversimplification, and a good example of why serious discussions of cause and effect have no place in the modern football message board.

    He always reminded me of Wes Welker.

    Heady player. A real "gym rat" and "bring your lunch pail" kinda guy.

    So much 2000-2001 nostalgia these days (or maybe just because I read the Dawgs of War last week).

    "A group of guys that would do anything it took to win games."

    That's the truth

    Todd Elstrom. played high school football with Luke Huard at Puyallup. I remember attending a game when they were ranked either #1 or 2 in 4A football. I was upset Luke Huard wasn't going to UW and made a comment to my two dads about it. A Puyallup fan in front of me told me UW got the better player in Elstrom. That turned out accurate.

    Elstrom became one of my favorites off the 2000 team. I liked the WR's on that team. They weren't great, but Elstrom, Robbins, and Hooks all made some big, clutch plays that year. Elstrom went from being the leading receiver off the 2000 team to the 3rd in 2001 because of Reggie Williams and Paul Arnold. He was what many wished Cody Bruns was. Tough, dependable, a team player, and a real lunch pail kind of guy.
