Also, I'm pretty sure our stroke - she's an insanely fit Ausie chick - is on the juice.
Most gunned out female rower I've every seen at UW. -

If we're being truly objective in our row boat hawt talk, we have to accept the CAL is very much on the Mt Rushmore of College Rowing in the US. We are slightly ahead of them in Natties, but just barely (it's like 1 or 2). Some years they are just going to be faster than an us and we're in one of those cycles right now.JoeEDangerously said:
Disappointed in such loser talk from youYellowSnow said:I'm guessing CAL wins the V8+ race by a length or more. They are the #1 ranked team in the country at present.
I will be heading down on May 14th to Pac 12's at Dexter Lake to watch the rematch.
Fuck Mother's Day.
There's no shame in losing to a GOOD California crew. Shit, I've lost to them 3 times and beat them 3 times in my illustrious row peter puffer career. -
Rowboat doesn't have as many up sets as football @JoeEDangerously . This CAL team is stacked.JoeEDangerously said:

Also Yale is the clear #2 all time at Eastern Sprints.whlinder said:
Men’s rowing Mt Rushmore is very clearly Washington, Cal and Harvard. I would have to consult the record books to decide between Yale and Princeton.YellowSnow said:

ETA: well fuck me, I forgot Princeton sucked for a long time and that Cornell was good at rowing in the early 1900s. I’m giving #4 to Yale over Cornell since Cornell hasn’t done shit in 40 years.

Washington
Harvard
Yale
Cal
That’s the official Mt Rushmore

We’ll I was right and Cal won. But only by a few seconds so I’m saying there’s still a chance to catch them later this season.

We’re still losing to Cal, but at least it’s close?
What’s Sark’s stupid quote, the scoreboard wasn’t indicative of the team performance?
Like Yella said, these things happen, Cal is a really good progrum too. But it would have been nice to Natty the same year that the Boys in the Boat movie is released.
