I'm done guys. 2001 Washington was 7-1 and headed to Miami to get ass blasted 65-7 on a game delayed by terrorists.

We've never been relevant since. The next year I watch us give up 729 yards to Cal and Gilby was finished.

It's not that we haven't won a title in 15 years. It's that we haven't had the opportunity to feel excited about maybe winning a title in 15 years.

Every year the season is over by Late october. Every fucking year. There is no joy in this shit. What if i get hit by a car crossing the street tonight? Good riddance, this shit is beyond pathetic. Beyond my family connection with the team, being a husky has brought nothing to the table.

I'm fucking close to pulling the plug.

    It's just become a back drop for a vacation here and there. This is the first year that I did not attend and home game in September since 1989. I'm going to three away games and only one home game this year.

    Any time you can spend your vacations in such vacation hotbeds as Norman, Oklahoma and South Bend, Indiana to watch anal rapings it's special

    This season is the first in a long time that I've pulled away and done other things on Saturdays. I enjoy watching day games, but I have better stuff to do than watch shitty football at 8 pm on a Saturday night.

    And that's fucking sad because it's guys like you and me that are breathing the last life into this program.

    I wish I had more clout, Washington Football has been one of the biggest parts of my life. It's sad I'm being pushed away by incompetence.

    It's fucking shameful.

    I was 6 years old when we won beat Purdue in the Rose Bowl. I vaguely remember it. I don't even go to UW (read: was rejected by UW). I've witnessed the worst era in Husky Football history, been told by the school I wasn't good enough, and for some fucking reason still give enough of a shit to spend time and money on the shit product they put out there year in and year out.

    Fuck... I think that says more about me than it does them.

    Edit: yet Cougs will say "you don't even go there" like it's been some fucking joyride for the last 15 years. The high point of Husky football for me has been....??? the USC win in 09? Holiday Bowl win over Nebraska to go 7-6? And both meant nothing. Fuck you, fuck me, fuck everybody.

    I don't know what's worse....having seen success and then falling down into the cellar, or having never seen it at all.

    Deep thoughts from a drunk...

    I remember thinking after owen12 that "when" Husky football is back, it'll be so sweet because I sat through all the losing. 7 years later and I'm wondering if I'll ever see a dominant UW team in my lifetime. Or if I'll still care by the time they get there.

    And I change my answer, Locker lighting Syracuse up in his first game was probably the peak. He was gonna take us to a Rose Bowl, I was fucking sure of it.

    It's not even the end of October when we fall out of contention. We usually play Oregon in early October and lose 3 straight. Depending on who you lose to you can't have 2 losses and win the North and we always lose early to the wrong teams.

    We can't beat ASU or Oregon. Have a gameday championship over Stanford but then all losses. Beat USC three times but all meaningless. Can't beat UCLA anymore. (never could)

    The poor coogs never get a chance to ruin our season anymore. This year we find a way to lose to Cal. We're 1-2 and out of it by early October

    This is a really good point I never considered. We don't just lose a lot of games the last decade +, we always lose to the wrong teams to ensure we are not in any contention for anything by late October. I just restated what you said and I don't know why. But good point. I'm done here.

    Semi OT rant/comment:

    Went down to the IMA to play hoops on Friday (shell of its former self) and this midget Asian kid thought that he was playing on my team because he asked me who had next and after saying that I had game he said who else do we have (you'd think that he'd know better) assuming that I had picked him up when I hadn't (and in fact told him to talk to my other buddy who was responsible for the pickups. Get on the court with our 5 (+ him) and when he realizes that he's the odd man out he drops into a "I can't believe you'd do me like that and YOU DON'T EVEN GO HERE" pissing match.

    But that pretty much sums up the current attitude around the entire school where winning is not valued and participation and inclusion is.

    I'm always gonna be a fan. I grew up a few miles away and walked to school on Chatch's st with other kids back when moron helicopter parents were the weirdos.

    I wondered why everyone gushed over DJ when the Dawgs went 6-4-1 and played Tulane in a shit pre Xmas bowl, then realized why a few years later.

    All the enthusiasm is gone until -we- do something meaningful though. I guess it's hard but I'm told by Doogs to stop bitching about 4-5 and see the big picture. Unfortunately small incremental progress, while good, needs to lead to winning the division. Its hard to be patient and enjoy the ride when we're on coach 4 since Rick and we've been told that for 12 years.

    Those are literally just "day side trips" for me. I do so much more on those trips. It's the people that fly in and out for that one game are the fucktards.
