DEAR STEVE: HERE'S A LAMP AND SOME OXYGEN

If it hurts you to write it, think about how much it sucks to follow it? Last year was the worst. Ty had completely given up, and the players followed along. To top it off, I went to the game in Pullman, and had to watch the Huskies give away a game they played well enough to win. It was brutal to say the least. I expect to get a couple of wins next year, but Ty didn’t exactly bust his ass recruiting the past few years. It will take a few years to get the ball rolling again. I like Sarkisian’s enthusiasm, but it remains to be seen how well he will do. He is saying and doing all the right things, so he at least learned how to suck up to the boosters.

f Sarkisian can show up for work every day during the season without bursting into tears and chomping Zoloft like rolls of Smarties

He’d be one step ahead of me, but that’s not setting the bar very high.

My Gator logic/emotion wants me to root for Sarkisian. It will prove 2 things when Kiffykins is simultaneously getting killed in the SEC: That Sarkisian was the smart one at USC and Kiffykins rode on his coattails.

I wonder how many Miami dumbfucks took their helmet off after that hit. I’m talking to you Sapp. Make a tackle fifteen yards down field and take your fucking helmet off. Damn I hate that school.

The hit on that video took place in 1994, not 2000. The 2000 UW victory over Miami took place in Seattle. That was Jammi German getting lit up, whose greatest accomplishment at Miami after being one of the most highly touted recruits ever was getting kicked off the team after that season for breaking into the room of a member of the track team and beating him senseless after said track guy spread rumors he was gay.

Hey! I’m on the West Coast! I take exception to this opening paragraph!

::hides behind red sportscar full of numerous swimsuit models::

We’ll know he’s made it if the Washington student body starts drafting resolutions against the Armenian Genocide and calls for Turkish reparations.

Unfortunately for Husky fans (take that as you will) having the program return to the glory days will include probation.

Hopefully Sarkisian can bring some of the U$C teflon with him…

Hey, who cares! UW softball is #1 in the nation!

[quietly sobs]

I was going to root for Sarkisian because I always liked his work with System of a Down and Empty Walls is a great song, but then you reminded me that Washington destroyed the U back in 2000, so now I am having second thoughts.

/I had an Armenian roommate in college, that should qualify as a pass for this one

“consider the magnificent descent of their program, and the tremendous shitpile their new headcoach is buried under.”

They still managed to beat Gerg by 30…at Syracuse.

SU fans laugh at what you call a “shitpile.”

Washington is in a recession. I think they have found the bottom, but I dont think even if Tim Tebow in a moment of grace, decided to transfer to UW to see if he could help, would even put a dent in the FAIL of that program. They should just just break all the rules they can and hope the NCAA doesnt remotely pay attention to get anywhere close to .500 in the next 5 yrs.
The first indicator of soon to be success of any program is there standing in the Fulmer Cup, with the 2007-2008 Alabama team being Exhibit A……….
This is kinda the theory I used when sizing up my chances on dates when I was a “playa”…
If a chick had tattoos, owned a cat, lived alone, and smoked weed occasionally, and liked to drink til 3am, I was in like Flynn. If any of the above wasnt in sync, it didnt work.
This theory has worked with Miami, Florida State, etc…..so once we see some arrest, there will be light for the Sark…., or better yet, more recruiting violations, cause he’s trying, dammit.

“Washington’s had the worst kind of three-way one could possibly imagine”

Mike Archer, Curley Hallman and Gerry DiNardo laugh at your foolish words.

@1: “Ty didn’t exactly bust his ass recruiting the past few years”

That assumes that Willingham has ever busted his ass recruiting, which history shows to be an awfully large assumption. Lack of effort on the recruiting trail is what really turned the boosters against him at Notre Dame. There were plenty of jokes about how a kid had to be a caddy at a nice country club to get recruited at ND under Willingham.

Jahvid Best is still running through UW’s “defense”. As a Cal Golden Bear, I hope UW stays as dead.

i wept when don james left, ever since i haven’t been able to know weather to laugh or cry at whats happened up there. never EVER did i think I’d see the day my service academy alma mater would have been a double digit favorite against ol UW.

Mike Dubose, Dennis Franchione, Mike Price* and Mike Shula scoff .

*Buy three get one free

West Coast football fans are genetically incapable of caring about football like most other college fans
I prefer to think of it as “keeping things in perspective.” But then again, when one’s favorite team is the Arizona Wildcats, treating football as 2nd only to Jesus can be detrimental to one’s health.

Sarkisian was never more than a decent OC, but I think he’s gonna be okay as The Man. Dude totally raided Carroll’s staff and knows how Pete built his kingdom. He ain’t Pete, no, but he’s a good recruiter and smart enough not to shit in his crib. And hell, he could easily win four games next year. Carroll’s gonna pound him, though.

@seth

shut the fuck up you fucking ty willingham apologist

In the interest of celebrating violence, which is the reason most of us watch football, I thought in your offseason you might appreciate this. I fled the USA for Australia in the time of the great evil of Nixon – a time you might have heard about in ancient myths. Since the arrival of the “W”, all previous histories and modes of thinking were expunged from the public consciousness and when I return to the US occasionally, people look at me with looks of faint and glad remembrance, aware that they met me sometime, but are not really sure when. The great black redeemer will restore order, prosperity, eliminate global warming and get rid of the BCS. What a guy.

But this is all by the by. Living in Australia, the only thing I really miss is college football. Our season is about to begin here, and we have our own version of big, fit, fast, dumb guys whacking the shit out of one another and getting angry about it.

Enjoy.

Just to clarify, UW is 2-1 vs. the canes since the teams split the 1991 MNC

1994 – Whammy in Miami, 38-20 domination ends the canes 58 game home win streak

2000- Dawgs win 34-29, it was the canes only loss that year…
Final BCS Standings
   1. Oklahoma
   2. Florida State
   3. Miami (10-1)
   4. Washington (10-1)

fuck the BCS. The Huskies won the Rose Bowl, Canes won the Sugar, and the Huskies finished #3 behind the #2 Canes in the final polls

2001- 65-7 Miami win at the orange bowl. 65 to fucking 7. The beginning of the end for Husky football
