Wow. Summertime in Seattle, weather should be beautiful, some of the greatest views in all of sports, $250 million stadium renovation, on and on... and they set game time for 7 PM PST, on some random new channel called Fox Sports 1.

Not only that, but we're competing against two other, possibly three Pac-12 games on TV in Nevada at UCLA, 7 p.m., Pac-12 Networks; Northwestern at Cal, 7:30 p.m., ESPN2; and Washington State at Auburn TBD. Yet 0regon has the 1 PM slot versus fucking Nicholls State on Fox Sports 1, with no other Pac-12 games on @ that time. UNFUCKINGBELEIVABLE.

Either UW football has truly become this irrelevant and the TV stations didn't think it'd be that big of a draw, or Scott Woodward totally dropped the ball, or a combination of the two. Either way, the whole thing blows.

Christ on a cracker, I can't take much more of this shit. I really can't. I'm about to give up on the whole damn program. Talk me off the ledge or push me off. After the previous 13 years of Husky football, I really don't care anymore. Fuck it all.

    I hope Comcast will have Fox Sports 1. After last season we can't assume anything when it comes to TV coverage.

    FS1 (I like to call Fox Sports 1 FS1, it's what I like to do) is supposed to take the Versus network and should be available on Comcast and DirecTV. First year without tickets so it's either watching games at home drinking beer or going to a bar to watch games and drink beer.

    meeting too Nacho. So much easier. 30 years of season tickets, dating back to my childhood and I dumped them thanks to TyTurner-.

    Joe, enough was enough and I'm glad I did. Another reason I'd rather watch agame at home. What a slap in the face to Washington fans, and a great recruiting open! We'll find out who dropped the ball and why.

    What a fucking cock-slap to the face of the old schoolers who deserve the right to see the new stadium in all her glory. This is a bad deal if its final. Football isn't even Fun around Montlake. Night games suck for EVERYBODY involved except the university who pockets the paycheck, that will go to purchase more softball gear and womens' soccer cleats

    you misspelled drinking beer, saying "oh screw this team" in the 2nd quarter, and changing to watch college gameday.

    I'm hearing that FS1 is replacing the Speed Channel. I'm hearing this could be good news for satellite and cable subscribers, but we'll have to wait until the PSA's mom approves of the coaching staff and school.

    It will still be light out at kick off. There is plenty of time before kick off to see the stadium.

    I understand some people's frustration with the 7 pm start (I prefer day games as well), but seeing the stadium shouldn't be a problem. If I still lived in Seattle, I would be there.

    What does not living in Seattle have to do with you missing the game?

    I live in LA and would rather watch it at home than take a quick trip to Seattle to watch Sark ball.

    If we are any good this year, I will take a trip later in the year. I will be going to a couple road games as well.

    Real men quit on this loser program the day it hired Ty.
