    I actually went to law school at University of Oregon after UW…I fucking hated it, lasted a semester, then dropped out. I tried to register for some interesting classes at UW a year after graduating (to pad my GPA for another grad school run attempt) and for some reason I was allowed into those classes even after graduating, so I was at UW for my last semester in early 2000.
    I used to wear my UW cap almost everyday while at UO…old men numerous times used to always roughly tell me, "We don't really like that hat in these parts." I was walking my dog behind the UO library one day (I wasn't wearing my UW cap at that moment) and A.J. Feeley, the QB for UO came up to me and asked to pet my dog and told me how nice my weimaraner was. He had lost his QB starting job by then. There's a South Park episode that mentions A.J. Feeley, that makes me chuckle about my 5 mins of fame with him every time I see it.
    There's a cemetery at UO, right next to the main library - pretty odd to have that right up against the school. That cemetery helped urge me to leave law school there…as I felt dead there.

    C’mon Stalin, they played 7 ranked teams in a row. They went 1-6 with every game relatively competitive late into the contest and one ass blasting at MSU. I’d quantify the stretch as ruthless, vicious, inhuman or barbarous. UW has never had a run like that before as the P12 hadn’t had 7 ranked teams for decades, if ever. They have a shot to go on a little three game run, gain some confidence. Jump on board, there’s very few of us on the train.

    You're taking me literally when I'm not arguing against your point at all. 100% pure malarkey in saying INSANE

    I know, I was making my case for some extra folks on the train. It’s pretty empty on here!

    Team lacks consistent shooters. If Zoom could should shoot what he does inside 15 feet he'd be pretty tough to stop. That said, the team as a whole lacks the dudes to consistently score. Osobor is a good player and pads the stats. Unfortunately one of those stats is turnovers, the pastry and throwing the ball away variety. That said without him this team isn't even close in games. Some definite glimmers of hope. LIPO.

    Interesting story because the 7 years through me off too. Back when I was at UW Oregon sucked so I can see the law school but with your time frame I would never consider going to school and I actually don’t like the state, I’m petty

    Thumbs up on wearing UW gear though. Leaving that shit school and state, wise move so you aren’t dumb obviously ha.

    I was in grad school in SoCal after UW and a gal in one of my classes at UCLA mentioned her youngest brother was beginning to play at Oregon. I thought to myself and? because that wasn’t impressive to me because they were dogshit in football. I was polite to her because Oregan football was like Oregan State equaling a mild speed bump on our yearly schedule most years.
