I didn't put this together last night but it's likely that he heard the rumor about Don James during the game.
I don't like him or his general outlook on Husky football. But his losing it after BeatMyPete called might deserve a pass.

Think about it. . .when given sad news do most people go on a tirade directed at others?
Go on a tirade on a platform with thousands of people listening?
My guess is that Baird is frustrated with the program like everyone else.
He's just too stupid to figure where the real problem lies.
The Honks aren't helping bring football excellence to Washington.
They're enabling mediocrity.
Real reason.
He has been a coach on the hot seat ... He knows Pete was right.
Also this game was a blowout so something tells me Baird probably started to hit the bottle earlier than usual.
He also knew Chest was right. You don't get that pissed off at someone if you actually think they are an idiot. You are that upset when deep down inside you know they are right.
Baird was a coach. That's all anyone needs to know. The only people dumber than Baird are people who call in expecting anything else from him. Softy may have made the only good point he's made in his life at the end of the segment when he said, and I paraphrase, "this is Baird. this is who he is. what else did you expect? if you don't know him by now you never will."
it was great that at least 4 other people called in to point out that he gets paid millions to do his job. that's why it's not a normal job. that's why you can't expect normal patience for results. it's an odd job that pays an odd salary relative to its importance in society and it therefore comes with odd expectations and success criteria.
why is everything so fucking complicated to people? Baird is a Husky homer and a coach homer. and on top of that he's a old man who reportedly drinks too much.
you're not listening to Charlie Rose when you're listening to the honks.
What's Baseball's greatest gambler have to do with this?
I think it's pretty common for people to be upset about one thing and to take it out on something or someone else. That's like human fucking nature shit.
Of course they're not helping. They should all die in a fire. I'm just saying maybe Baird deserves a break for what he said to HereToBeatMyPete. Fired for every other dumb ass thing he's said. A break for that.
In fact I want to thank him....as it will help HuskyFanPodcast gain momentum when we kick off our Fire Sark campaign this week.
