Derek did call that out from the beginning, and the TSIO daWgs didn't accept that (Hi @Tequilla )RoadDawg55 said:
Jacob Sirmon sucked and it was obvious from his days at Bothell.creepycoug said:This thread would be much more interesting if we could fold in a little Bothell Couger football chat.
There's even a juicy @Dennis_DeYoung post where he rips Derek for devaluating Sirmon because of a high school rivalry. (I still love DDY/FuckRobot for what it's worth).
But when @BendDawg24 confirms it you know it's true. -
Confirmed it with my own eyes. I watched him throw six picks against the mighty Woodinville Falcons. 6!!! On that day, and maybe a few Saturday's watching the 2019 UW offense, a drunk fan like myself felt smarter than Petersen and several other big name college coaches who offered Sirmon a full ride based on height and arm strength alone.haie said:

Stubborn arrogance. I can’t imagine thinking a Hudl film validates my opinion against a guy that had seen Sirmon play in person multiple times.haie said:

I love all the episodes and I’m also jonesing for another Race throwback episode at some point.

This is mostly for me and @JoeEDangerously but here's what the other teams in Locker's league were like, at least when he was there with a Pac-12 comparison.haie said:
I got my fucking ass kicked by one of those Jake Locker Ferndale teams when he was an underclassman. He just handed it off to the rb for 6 yards a carry while I watched at corner, but still.WoolleyDoog said:This is wonderful but I'm still waiting on doing our extended pod on the sociodemographic of the former WIAA 3A Northwest League.
They viewed us as the pussy rich kid school with artificial turf and soft players, and they were right. I always wondered what the rest of their league was like, because we always played Olympia teams in the playoffs.
So even the OL brothers are a great get because of that school's rep. Well, hopefully we get the younger brother.
Lynden - Large, Dutch farm kids who punished you but weren't mean. Hot blonde girls. Stanford, when they were good.
Bellingham - White gangsters with a few minorities sprinkled in. Oregon.
Squalicum - Soft rich kids terrible at football. Stanford, when they're bad.
Sehome - Pre-Rapp was actually tough. Never remarkable but always had one really big kid and one really fast kid. Cal.
Sedro-Woolley - Inbreds. Almost never good. Wait till wrestling season. Wait...no one cares. Oregon State.
Burlington - Farm kids but also kind of preppy and weirdly standoffish and arrogant, but were always sneaky good, but never made sense given they weren't big, fast, or tough. Utah, when they're good.
Anacortes - Disinterested semi-rich kids with old parents. A few old fishing family tough kids. Washington.
Mount Vernon (they went 4A during Locker's years but still) - Most kind of down the line Americana down the middle and big. Should have been pretty good but were always kind of soft. UCLA.
Ferndale - Hard ass factory, refinery and farming kids whose families I assume couldn't afford to live in Bellingham and weren't clean cut enough for Lynden. Ohio State. -

You could 1:1 map those roles with Greater St Helens during that time.
Except Ferndale. Like 1 year of Kelso was kind of on their level, but not really.
Probay could with most leagues outside of Seattle. -
Love the pod.

“Hardcore Husky doesn't have the best of reputations amongst the general UW fan base. But one comment I hear pretty regularly is that we (most of us here) hold UW football to a high standard and call a spade a spade. Many people out there do find it refreshing.”
Couldn’t agree more. Probably the best thing uw related to come out in the last 20 years. Those that don’t like HH are just pussies that can’t handle the truth. There are some dicks (hi haie!), some shitty links that no one should read (SI.com), but overall a solid site that any true football fan should enjoy. Thank you Derek! -
Could see that being the South of Seattle parallel to the Northwest League.haie said:

All I've ever heard about Kelso is WoolleyDoog's dad saying he knew a guy from there who did two tours of duty in Vietnam and never got shot but has been shot in Kelso on two separate occasions.
