    One of my dads played football with him at WSU. They would talk recruiting on the phone….he would have him go to various Portland area games and report back.

    He lined up stone cold foxes for recruits on their trips.

    He knew stats of every kid that walked through the door to pick up their gameday tickets.

    You all can DIAFF

    I’m sorry for your loss. Ts & Ps.

    Baird was disgraceful as a Gilby and Ty apologist Gutless I'd say, as I know he knew that what he was saying was wrong. I've been relatively impressed with some of his writing on doogpound this season though. His Xs and Os are always pretty strong and when he uses them to make the right point he's a pretty solid guy.

    I've never listened to him speak. Maybe he'd bug me worse than he does.

    The guy has a ton of heart and you can feel how much he cares. Thanks for being you coach. Your lightness made me feel better even when I was pissed off.

    Is this a whoosh? It has to be. Baird is a goddamn enemy of all that is good and holy.
    He is also part of what "we" hold to be good and holy, historically. I parrot what DJ (ILTCHDJ, IWILTD) said earlier. Spent some time around him, much different than what he was saying Honk-wise. He is (was) media, and good media has access...Speak the truth, lose access, lose gig..."not in the middle of the store"...
    He took it to an extreme level with the delusional dooging, but no hate from me for assuring he kept his job.

    He took it farther than was needed. We all get that they have to play the stupid media games for access, but his stupid pom pom shit made for bad radio. Now does he drink himself into a coma? I kid...

    He lost all credibility at the beginning of 2008 when he said he was “happy Dr Emmert kept Coach Willingham because he is a great sports educator”. Then at the beginning of 2009 he said he would’ve fired Willingham after the 2007 season.

    He basically admitted that he had outright lied to everyone a year earlier.

    And why? Probably so he could go to practice and jerk off with Chris Tormey - the guy who had the pictures before Johnny Nansen.

    Good riddance.

    Hate the dementia, not the demented.

    That’s not either. That’s just flat out lying so he can have access to the program.

    Same bullshit with the LP3.

    Everything you hear him say on the radio, he says the opposite when talking face-to-face with his guard down.

    This feels somehow worse to me than just being a moron like he comes off.
    I stopped listening to the Honks years ago, and so I have nothing against Baird at all.

    But one example I can remember is how he used to defend Neuheisel's recruiting on the show when critics called in. And then I was talking with him on the phone, and he went off on a mini-rant on how dumb Neu's recruiting had been. I remember him saying, "I mean c'mon, seven fucking wide receivers!"

    I was driving around Seattle once on business and the subject was Neu’s recruiting. Baird took it for awhile then went on a 5 minute, apoplectic rant about Oregon’s yellow Hummer that they used to pick up recruits at the airport. The Hummer had just been banned by the NCAA and drunk old Dick was pretty sure its use rated severe sanctions. It was the first time I’d heard the guy and I couldn’t tell if he was senile or merely shit faced.
