Ultra DoogPapa Yella was out visiting last week. Said that he was going to quit watching Husky Football if we? leave the PAC. Also thinks adding SDSU to the conference is a great move.
I tried to explain to him that USC gave us a fait accompli and we have no choice but to leave.
He's also fond of saying that each coach should get 4 years to get their own guys in there, and that fans on the internet are generally idiots. -
Nega DawgDaddy doesn't live anymore, but he stopped rooting for UW when they hired Neuheisel. He had an over the top dislike for him. He later said UW got what it deserved with Gilbertson and Ty due to the stupidity and arrogance displayed when they hired RN
-
Moderately DoogishHe doogs it up every year before the season starts, and then even more so if we start off hot. But he's the first one cussing out the players when they start to lose.

Nega DawgMy Dad has been nega ever since Hedges sold the program out.

Ultra DoogMy dad passed on his love of UW and hatred of Oregon. He would be proud to know his grandkids have inherited these sentiments.

Has little or no interest in Husky FootballMy old man gave up after DJ left. Only has mild interest now that his son is a Jack Husky who does a podunk podcast. I do laugh every time he says “hows the crootin’ goin’”
-
Nega DawgMy Pops was initially interested in the dawgs because of Darrell Royal, who he watched play at Oklahoma, and Jim Owens, who had the same pedigree. Dad moved to Warshington in about 1950, IIRC…He hated the Sooners (as a Longhorn alum), but respected Bud Wilkinson…
He was a classic Nega, with all teams he rooted for…even the slightest failure brought on “Fire the coach / get rid of players” rantings… -

My old man arrived to UW just in time for the 1964 season and the decline of Jim Owens football. He came of age in an era of shitty football for us.RaceBannon said:Fire Jim Owens

Moderately DoogishAfter ‘91 thought UW would be a 1000 year reich. Rinse and repeat after 2000. Frustrated both times, harbors abiding hatred for “PAC 9”.
Disgusted by ‘97 season, cancelled season tickets thereafter.
Like any good Husky his expectations were forged by the’78-‘91 era when would could clearly see an upward trajectory.
No longer really interested. -

Has little or no interest in Husky FootballI’d take my dad to Husky games and he’d forget who I was or where we were. Not out of senility or dementia, just didn’t pay close attention and when Notre Dame or USC or WSU or whatever team would do something g good, he’d start cheering and have to catch himself.
He’d rather be sitting at home watching an old John Wayne movie, so I stopped bringing him. -
Which dad?

Has little or no interest in Husky FootballMy Dad was/is a hater. Grew up Mormon, hated UW because we? refused to play BYU. Which was really probably the most Mormon thing about him.
Plus he grew up in Eastern Washington and always had a soft spot for the fucking coogs.
Thankfully he didn't really GAF about college football so my burgeoning doogdom slipped under his radar until it was too late.
I suppose he really just needed more tim. -
Nega DawgHardy har har. Dad was no section 8. I think that, while he didn't come out and say it, he thought RN was a fag and that doomed him.

Ultra DoogDad started mid 70's ultra Doog and has since drifted into moderate territory. Hates Oregon with a passion, mild dislike for Coog. He taught me everything I know about being a loyal Doog. Section 7
-
Moderately DoogishDoogs before the season and before games but gets super real when things go bad. I kept expecting things to turn around against Montana but for him TSWO after the first quarter. Smart.
-
Moderately DoogishMy dad CARES and is pretty positive. His eyes tend to glaze over when I go into an autistic rant about the state of the progrum.

Nega DawgMy dad was OG Tyee with 4 seats on the 50 yard line that his Husky fan son got to sit in once. He took clients. Husky football was one of the very few things we talked about so most of my being a fan is his fault
He wanted to beat USC and UCLA and hate the northwest schools for being losers. He wanted the Rose Bowl every year. He wanted to fire the coach. He was pissed when Donnie Moore got booted. Win. Its not a morality play
The game I went to as a youth was a 7-7 tie with Cal and the big shot Tyee guys were dropping F bombs all over the place. The kids got booed along with the coaches.
Without him I wouldn't have been a half brain. -
Ultra DoogDad was a massive Gators fan up until moving out from Florida to work at Trojan in 1989.
Silly story (CSB), but UW beating the Gators followed later by a bench workout with Bill Gillespie spring football weekend of 1994, gave birth to a Doog to rival any Doog that could ever exist.
Almost nothing can get him to not trust the coaches (Ty did for a while).
This would have been a solid fathers day poll. -
Ultra DoogMy dad at least says he thinks UW is going to win the national championship going into every season. Including 2008. He's suffered through all the bullshit since DJ and stayed strong.
His hatred and level of suspected conspiracies around Oregon are truly insane. -
Nega DawgDad grew up in a farming community in northern Snohomish County in a time of Seattle Rainiers baseball, Husky athletics and Seattle U. basketball. Nothing else in town. I grew up with stories of Bob Houbregs, Elgin Baylor, Jim Owens, back to back Rose Bowls, Bob Schloredts one eye, Warren Moon and being the best team in college football in 1960 and 1984 even if we we’re screwed out of the trophies both years. My dad and his cousins hated Wazzu with a passion. They ruined many a Rose bowl run and I heard all the stories. Oregon was an afterthought in our home. USC was the benchmark. Beat them, play in the grand daddy. UCLA was always a worry. Athletes and speed. Gotta be tougher than them because they are better athletes man for man. I came late in his life. Wished I’d come earlier, missed some good football. I got to share an Independence Bowl win over Mack Brown, a Don James is never gonna play real offense GODDAMNIT!!! season, a dominant Freedom Bowl and three straight Rose Bowls and a natty with my dad before he passed in spring 1993. He passed onto me that we were never “winning”, we were only ahead. Meaning, we could blow this at any moment kid, don’t get your hopes up. He never, ever went into any game thinking we would win. Never. That rubbed off on me to an extent. DJ retired a couple months after his death and it was like the cherry topping to a shitty year. I strangely tripled down on my fandom after that. I think to be close to his memory. It’s what sustained me through some frustrating, tantalizing and then down right poor football. Eventually found my way here. A community of Husky fanatics that can think critically about a program that has a decades long track record for fucking things up. Thanks dad.
