To be blunt and transparent (as I almost always am with you guys), this season was fun and I enjoyed it. But I never did regain the passion I had before. I was over the Alabama loss within 3-4 hours after the game. Prior to the Willingham/Sark/Emmert stuff, it would have taken me 5-7 days to recover.
My lack of passion is reflected in some of my writing here. I know it. One of my goals for 2017 is to regain that feeling or at least find a way to inject more energy into my writing on this site. It can only help Hardcore Husky to have me writing entertaining articles on a regular basis. But when it feels more like an obligation and chore instead of something that gets me excited, that's not an optimal place to be in terms of production.
I've got high hopes for this site to grow but I/we need to make sure it grows in the right way.
Maybe you need @swaye to put on his aviator whites Orkin overalls and serenade you to get it back.
I was over the Alabama loss within 3-4 hours after the game.
Same here, but I don't think it's because I've lost passion. I think it's because our team exceeded expectations this year and gave us all kinds of hope for the future.
In other words, losing to Alabama was like asking for a Nintendo Switch for Christmas, getting a Nintendo Switch and an Xbox One, and then hoping that last big present was a PS4, but finding out that it's really just a pair of pajama pants that your parents wrapped in a big box with rocks in it. Disappointing? Absolutely...we all have plenty of pairs of pajama pants, so it's kind of bullshit that family members keep buying us more pairs because they couldn't think of anything else to buy us. But it's okay, because I got more than I asked for. But every Christmas from here on out that I don't get that PS4 is going to hurt me more and more. That's because the PS4 is the best console out right now.
Voted down for the use of "Super Elite". I mean WTF. The Huskies have a very good football team, but they are "elite" nowhere, let alone "Super Elite". "Super Elite" teams come along maybe once in a generation or two, they don't lose football games and they aren't truly tested by even the best of their contemporaries. It would even be a stretch to put the '91 Dawgs in that group based on their performance against Cal alone. The participation trophy generation has apparently bled over to prior generations, can we please stop it's progress and halt the hyperbole already.
The fact is this Husky team just played a team with an elite defense and head coach (but lacking an elite offense), and they lost the game soundly. Penn State just hung 49 on USC. UW managed a mere 13 points against them. The problem with the Huskies right now is a lack of "physicality" (physically and mentally) on the offensive side of the ball, plain and fucking simple, with Brownshorts leading the lack thereof. That side of the ball has to man the fuck up or this team will be no better than Oregon has been, never winning the big one against the kind of physical teams UW used to measure up against. UW needs to be USC north again, and they're not there yet. The defense is close, but the offense is behind by a country fucking mile, a bunch of front running candy asses.
At this point, I'm on the Petersen bandwagon, only because his three year progress has shown he can build a winning program, and because it appears he has the defense headed in the right direction, but this team is not going to break through until it starts recruiting and developing the kind of nasty assed O-line and big game ready quarterbacks James used to field. It's that "simple". Do that and they may become "elite". Super elite? Christ on a crutch.

Welcome to the process called aging.
THIS
17-18 ppg is not elite. They are very good but not elite.
Bama has an elite defense. UW '91 had an elite defense (9 ppg).
Like I said before the game, the trenches would be the deciding factor. Because Bama has so much depth, they were able to line up the best Dlineman in the country against an under sized guard. The Washington could have had Brady at QB and Rice and Megatron on the outside and it wouldn't have mattered because he wouldn't have had time consistently. Because Bama was getting pressure with 4 and occasionally 5, they had 5 DBS and a LB or two covering 3 or 4 depending on who stayed in to block. The numbers were in Bama's favor

This reply, had it been serious, would have been nominated for the krisvashon retard of the year award, which you've won in the past I might add.
Fortunately, the hackneyed 80s cut-down reference to wife/girlfriend/etc. gave you away and reaffirmed my optimism that even a fucking retard can have a purposeful sense of humor.
Well done junior.
And, come on: droning on and on with that run-on pajama analogy was like licking the rim of a shitty asshole. Just stop already. You're fucking terrible at writing. Move on.

When people talk shit about me, I don't get mad. I get even. And when the gloves are off, you'll know. What does that mean? Well, that's for me to know and for you to find out.

Who the fuck wears pajamas?
No wonder you can't get laid. Jesus.
That analogy just sucks ass.
Bama has an elite defense. UW '91 had an elite defense (9 ppg).
Learn the difference.
People who have a little thing called class.
Just because I'm not fucking your wife/girlfriend/mom/daughter anymore, doesn't mean I'm not getting laid.
No it doesn't.

Really? No shit? And they didn't invite you on TV to share that brilliant prediction?

Are we OK?
