This validates everything we've been saying for twenty years. But holy fuck, seeing it like this is a pretty rude awakening. 1991 might as well be 1891. Story.

    Verizon's coverage map is really looking solid.

    Taking a quick look at all of the big teams in major cities on the west coast, UW is no different than USC, UCLA, Stanford, or Cal. The NYTimes methodology used the social internet to measure % of posts about the local team compared to other interests... people in big cities have a lot of other interested to post about. People in Lincoln Neb or Alabama or Eugene... not so much.

    Wow, you're telling me that winning causes fan interest? Holy shit man! Nebraska the outlier, but then they are fucking classy. Iowans and Arkansans must lead miserable and pathetic lives.

    There are about 1,000,000 more things to do in Washington than Alabama, especially if you like the outdoors.

    Your team is located in Seattle. That is about as bad as it gets. I saw more O stickers than W stickers (none) in that city. Aside from that, the state of Washington as a whole deserves the 2 shitty teams that they have, because obviously not enough of you give a fuck. Washington State is fast approaching its own duckade. Oregon gives a fuck. And Oregon owns both your asses. What are you going to do about it? Probably nothing....

    People would give a fuck if the university gave a fuck.

    Turns out that for over a decade, they didn't.

    HTH.

    And you can do the same 1,000,000 things in Oregon that you can do in Washington, except pump your own gas. How does that explain the discrepancy between teams and fucks given?

    There is a lot of measurement bias in the methodology of the study. Look at how far down California is in that list... because it is a state with a very large population, which makes the denominator very large in the % equation. Alabama's population is small... like Oregon's.

    Seattle has lots of towelheads, japs, Mexicans, junkies, liberals, pussies and gays. Maybe that's it. Not exactly a football loving demographic.

    I know a liberal gay towelheaded junkie and he loves football. You can't stereotype an entire demographic just because a few extremists hate football.

    That's because you cover your whole fucking back window with it. The reason whOregon has 3,865 uniform combinations is because they know that all you fuckers will spend your government checks to get your official gameday Beige and Giraffe print Mariota jersey to support Tethered Spinal cord syndrome, instead of paying off your lease on your river van.

    Ducks are like vegans... how do you know a person is an whOregon Duck, they tell you.

    I saw more O stickers than W stickers (none) in that city.

    You're going to fit in well here. Wellcum.

    Dr. Reverend ML King Jr. Co. is eight percent. That's pathetic. If it were only pussy faggot hipster Seattle I could see it, but the entire county? All the Eastside yuppies and South County bubbas can't bring that up?

    I'm so glad I ditched that place, because it ditched me first. Fucking overweight hipster women in skinny jeans leading cheers at Sounder gaymes counts as sports cheering now.
