Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

It is unfair ...

Dick,

5-4, 5-4, 5-4, 5-4 in conference play .... Holiday Bowl win > Alamo Bowl loss > Las Vegas Bowl loss > Kraft Fight Hunger/New Mexico Bowl ...

Why can everyone outside of Seattle see what you refuse to acknowledge?

What does an Arizona win have to do with beating Oregon? Oregon boat raced Washington, at home, for the 10th consecutive year. That's what I care about.

Enjoy the higher attendance, enjoy the improved stats, enjoy the improved talent ... and accept a coach who is 5-4 in conference play ... and enjoy your annual trip to the local charity bowl ... it's the Seattle way.

....

Dick says:

Completely unfair comparison since the pac 12 is far superior now than has been the last three or four years. Plus Washington is playing great ball now and Oregon is an unmitigated disaster

    Go easy on Dick - I very much doubt he has any idea what "unmitigated" means...

    The "unmitigated disaster" phrase is on the back of his scotch bottle.

    The bowl stuff doesn't prove anything. The holiday bowl happened because there were 2 BCS teams and USC was on probation. Alamo was 3 spots ahead of where we normally should have been. Extra BCS, USC probation and they picked UW over Arizona.

    The argument is Sark will never be a championship coach or field a consistent contender. That doesn't change if he wins the bowl game or wins 10 next year.

    Sark is not the guy for the job. Uw needs to move on from him. Sark is not a nice guy to people he should be nice to.

    Owes Sankey at least half his salary.

    PAC 13 is highly overrated

    The Pac-12 is worse now than it has at any point since 2008. #fuckingdreckfest

    10-2 is an unmitigated disaster? I wonder what Dick Fain would call my life of heavy cocaine addiction and killing hookers.

    WASHINGTON has been below the unmitigated disaster line 22 out of 23 seasons since 1991.

    Don James was only above the unmitigated disaster line what 2 or 3 times?

    He's Dick FainFS for a reason.

    Washington is really 10-2 if you take out 3 quarters of bad play.

    you'd think sports radio producers would put people on air who actually knew shit about sports. Not the case.

    I remember when 10-2 was an "unmitigated" disaster for UW what is now too long ago. But I guess the PAC 10 was a complete joke then right DickFS?

    What evidence is there that the PAC-12 is a better conference now than the last few years? Besides, you know, the premier program in conference being an unmitigated disaster.

    It's only perceived as better by these idiots so they can convince themselves that there's legitimate reasoning why we continue to suck or stay mediocre.

    There's the Sagarin ratings...and not much else.

    The conference is a fucking dreckfest. Notre Dame almost won the whole damn thing and they aren't good at all.

    It's also unfair that UW can't replace Oregon, Stanford, UCLA and trips to Arizona on their schedule with big sky teams.

    Give Woody some time. 2015 we have Hawaii, Boise State and Sacramento State. Woody is working on replacing Oregon with Portland State. There is some resistance from Eugene who consider Washington a Mountain West type game on their schedule..
