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

Fan or cynic

Fans go to games. Cynics complain.

For regular posters here, seems like a cynic to fan ratio of about 5 to 1.

Oh but I've been sooo burned by PETERMAN, Jen is the WORST, DOOGS SUCK, the Athletic Department is SOO INCOMPETENT.

Get over yourself and go to the game. I swear the old guard here acts like a bunch of too cool adolescents. I'm sure there are some here so jaded that they actually want UW to LOSE on Saturday, but I'm not sure that's many. How about admit that you'd like us to win and get your lazy ass to the game. And quit with the "I've been so heartbroken I just can't care anymore". Seriously, that's your mental toughness level? GET to the GAME.

And yeah, this isn't Softy, isn't Jen, isn't anyone other than a fan whose hung around on this board long enough to feel the need to call your BS. Yes, you.

    I was a fan of college football.

    I am a cynic of the current shit sandwich.

    Driving over on Saturday morning. UW has shit on me for over 20 years but yet I can’t completely leave.

    I’m not paying money for games that have no business being scheduled

    “Fans” have no importance other than to the bottom line of the program.

    The fans when we went 0-12 in 2008 were mostly the same fans we had in 2016.

    I was thinking about this watching the game on Sat.

    Me watching the stupid game on TV matters more to the finances of the program than my having been a season ticket holder.

    How fucked up is that?

    My first Husky game in person was San Jose State in 1994 and the stadium was more rocking that day 90% of the games I've been to since 2013.

    Quite easily one of the worst fucking takes and posts on this board. And that’s saying a lot.

    I’m going to the game in Bay Area this year, as I did every year before Covid. I think the last time I was in Berkeley, Haner threw a pick six to lose the game. I have never been so pissed after a game.

    He knows what this site's about. There are tons of rainbow and unicorn pages and sites. They like to ban and sometimes completely block Bill

    You should lurk around a bit and get a feel for the boards. If you have any questions feel free to shoot @IrishDawg22 a PM because he has this place dialed in.

    I was at that game in 94. Kaufman took one 91 yards for a touchdown on Huskies first offensive play. South side upper deck with my two dads. I was 9. You don’t forget that.
