My bigger issue is that I don't care very much about Husky Football anymore. I would rather have root canal surgery than write an article about Jake Browning's surgically repaired shoulder (or whatever the fuck).ApostleofGrief said:
Derek seems like a nice guy but I have a feeling that the "Later Guys" might be from him. The tone of his announcements don't paint a picture of reaping money hand over fist. In fact it sounds exactly like exactly what is depicted in the article.allpurpleallgold said:

As someone who made a significant contribution to this site when it started, I never looked at it as an investment. I looked it as a way to help build something that I'd enjoy and 4+ years later, I'm still enjoying it.ApostleofGrief said:

You act like those of us who contributed expected some financial returns. I don't think any of us expected that. If it comes to that at some point in the future, great. If not, that's great too. -

Let me tell you what will happen for 2017. These cheap fucks will pony up or I will find them and set their houses on fire. Then this place will either break even or run a slight surplus, or a bunch of basement dwelling losers will be homeless. That's what will happen.DerekJohnson said:

Nice!!!! The old man followed me back. Rush to tweet him how great UW is but remembered he already knows

Derek says he has lost interest in Husky football. It is probably just a phase. So, I have a great idea for his next book: The History of Small College Football in Washington. There actually is such a thing, especially if we include Eastern in the "small" category with their championship in I-AA. CWU has won NAIA and Linfield is a national powerhouse. I think PLU has won national championships.
Western was bad and folded up the tent and left. It just occurred to me that you don't need to write a book since that is all the history you need to know.... anyway it wouldn't sell. Never mind. -

Otherwise it would be: "How can you talk about putting the HIV virus in blow up dolls when we are discussing who will be the backup long snapper in 2019 ?"
Long Snapper ? Is it still succulent and tight ?
