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

Vorel does it again

That the Mariners are now everything we're not is a hysterical role reversal. No pulled punches from Mike.

    Jimmy is delusional

    “That’s the goal. We’re trying to score points. So the last three weeks we scored more points than the first two weeks. So mission accomplished there"


    "You see the spurts of what our offense can do. If we just keep executing and doing what we know how to do, I don’t think anyone can stop us.”

    Sounds like Jerry Pettibone
    Great call back

    Vorel really doesn't pull any punches. I know that virtually everyone liked Newnham, and he was a good beat writer, but I don't remember him being as willing to take aim the staff so quickly and directly when it was called for Maybe he was and I just don't remember.

    He was famously used by Ty to say that Ty was quietly shocked at how bad the talent was when he came

    Quietly as in the lead column of the Seattle Times

    Newnham was a Seattle sports enabler.

    Not defending Jimmy but to be fair the "You see the spurts of what our offense can do. If we just keep executing and doing what we know how to do, I don’t think anyone can stop us.”
    Was Mcgrew. But Jimmy was bullshittting himself and us if he thinks things are "Mission Accomplished."

    Did he see the tweet about his first half offense that went something like this?

    TD; 3 & out, fumble, 3 & out, INT, FG

    I’m guessing he wasn’t paying attention to that part of the game.
    Probably was listening to the Mariners broadcast on the headset

    Well I inexplicably fucked up and dropped the wrong name. I meant Condotta.

    That post was from before golf and evening weed. My head is clear now.

    "Through five games, the Diet Coke of UW Death Row defenses ranks 101st nationally in opponent yards per carry (4.56) and 102nd in rushing defense (182.2 yards per game)."

    Lake's supposed calling card is Defense yet he lost Pete Kwat to Texas (PK couldn't stand working for Lake) and now the Husky D is bad. Exactly what does this d-bag bring to the table now?

    He is 2-3 this season with losses to Oregon State and Montana! What a disaster.

    They could just use tackling dummies and get about the same results

    The defense is not great, at all. But it’s not the the difference in winning & loosing right now.
