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

Mitch Levy says...

After being asked via text why his show spent 3.5 hours talking about the Seahawks (who didn't have a game over the weekend) and only 15 minutes on the Huskies Apple Cup victory/season, Mitch said that only 1 in 10 people that listen to his show care about the Huskies and that there are many "like Slickhawk" who root for the Ducks and the Seahawks. His sample size (Slickhawk) agreed and said he turns the radio when there is Husky talk.

On a slightly related note, this morning all 3 of them (including Fain) were under the impression that USC would be playing Oregon tonight "if not for Chris Petersen" because USC beat UCLA this year.

P.S. yes I know I'm gay for listening to Mitch

    They talk about 1/4 the amount of Huskies they did last year...when they broadcast them.

    Slickhawk sounds like a creepy fuck, btw

    Admitting it is usually the first step towards and type of healing.

    Simple truth is they can't and they know it.

    The duck/seahawk fan is the worst of the worst. How can anyone do that and maintain a shred of dignity or self respect.

    Duck/Stealer fan

    I think Atomic nailed it. There isn't much interest in a college football team that hasn't been good in 14 years. By good, I mean playing games that matter in November. When that happens, interest will rise and the Huskies will get talked about. Right now, it's basically a niche market.

    And one well serviced by you, Little Jimmy, and Chest.

    You can bet the house that when we're good again, marketing will come up with some bullshit and we'll be dealing with our own version of the 12s. Doogs will be legacy at that point.

    Two mornings ago mitch and dick pain had an argument about which conference TCU was in... Neither had any clue and dick pains internet wasn't working so he couldn't look it up.

    3 minutes later dick offered up his take that fsu should be on upset alert vs georgia tech. I tried to call in and ask what conference those two schools were in but they wouldn't let me on the air.

    That is a fan who just discovered/started caring about football 4-5 years ago.

    Its not just the lack of coverage but the quality. Hugh is basically the go to guy for everyone. He sucks ass not because he can't convey shit and doesn't talk about shit that actually matters.

    Salk is an east coast guy with a pro sports superiority complex. We touched on 710s UW coverage in the last cast. Its a total abomination. Salk actually thinks UW fans should be more myopic like Mariners fans. He also said a few years ago that UWs expectations were too high and couldn't be a great program anymore. Fuck that guy.

    Fans take cues from these clowns. Some here say Softy,Kim,Dawgman, etc don't matter but they do. They have a huge audience and play a role and help to shape local opinion of UW.

    Since summer we've been averaging 450 listeners per podcast with it topping out over 550 a few times. We have a good audience because fans are starved for entertaining and informed husky talk that they don't care that its 3 clowns with boners in their sweatpants with low production value. And we've had a tiny role in shaping opinions. Not every listener who started with us was a huge anti-Sark guy but they eventually came around because we provided them with better info and analysis that led them to making their own judgements. When we professionalize our cast, are able to have some legitimate guests and UW takes the next step I'm sure we can have well over 1000 listeners per podcast.

    You had me at "Fuck that guy"

    Keep on keepin on Chest!!

    the fuck is a podcast? I don't listen to sports radio, and I don't podcast. I prefer not having to be told what to think. I used to like listening to mitch, but when sandy got fired, I quit listening. Fain is horrific and uninformed, I tried brock and salk..... un-listenable inho.

    When Matt Rogers, Kyle Benn and I had our podcast, we topped out at 5,500 downloads per show, and as I've said before, I did a mediocre job as host. Partially because my heart wasn't in it due to my belief Sark would be here for 20 years and the program was doomed.

    Your Husky Fan Podcast is superior to the one we did IMO, and I do believe you can go to 1,000 listeners and beyond that even.

    I tried to give Salk a fair shot, but he is truly unlistenable.
