At least you all didn't get screwed out of participating in it.

Had I known you were going to be back so soon, I would have given you all the dogs and required them to win outright. (Probably would have had to give you losses for the teasers though)

It's how we do it in my NFL pay for league when someone misses getting their picks in before the deadline.

I addressed WM about it but he was actually pretty tormented by the way things escalated and didn't seem to have good hope of your return.

For what it's worth, I'm glad you're back!

It's all good. Wouldn't have been the same anyway. Next year is a long long way away, but that's how it goes.

Again, it's not about the quality of athlete he had left, it's how they fit in with his very unique offense. Also, as often happens, some of those kids didn't buy in. You need a TEAM to win.

Sark had to clean house to some degree and Petersen has had a ton of turnover. Explain to me how UW's defense is better this year with only a name or two anyone has heard of over a unit that put 4 guys into the NFL last year in the first round? There was more seasoned talent last year. No one argues that, but this unit plays as a team and every kid is on board. That matters greatly.

You prove my point. Peterson is a great coach. Guys didn't buy in because Leach's retarded Napoleaonic ego.

Hopefully by then, we will have all the wrinkles out and everyone will be on the same page for the most part.

Negative. Petersen threw several guys off the team and didn't have a great record last year, despite having great kids, because there were issues with kids not buying in.

They might not make a bowl this year and it's because of how young they are playing because of the kids they dumped and those that left. It was a massive turnover. They are starting a true freshman QB for the first time in school history because of it.

Every program goes through this.

A. Peterson threw kids off for being idiots, Leach kicked kids off cause he is a racist asshole. And humiliated players to the press just because he was bigger than all Americans another coach created.

B. Peterson didn't have a horrible year compared to your talent level. UW was a bowl team but not a significant bowl game team.

A. The kids he threw off were idiots out of rebellion. They weren't buying in. There were problems in that locker room last year and it was well reported on.

B. If you look at their trajectory many had 2014 as their break out year. The defense was well down despite having 4 first round draft worthy players and a very seasoned group all over that field and the offense dropped off substantially.

Neither was about not having talent, it was about someone else's kids in a new system. Petersen is a lot like Leach in needing his kids to run their system. Coaches like Harbaugh can go in and adapt their schemes to the talent they actually have. That's a rare coach at this level. Rich rod has his own way, Graham too, Dykes took several years to get kids into his system. This is the norm.

If Stanford can win today they will even the all time record against UW at 41-41-1. UW has led the series overall since 1992. A few years ago, Washington led the series 39-32-4. But Stanford has won 8 of the last 10 to draw within a game of the Huskies. Hoping to even it up tonight.

Good luck Dawgs. I hope the team is ready for this game against your D.

Our center has single handedly killed more drives and more momentum than any player in CFB history. How hard is it to snap a fucking ball to the QB without launching it 20 yards over his head?

He's blinded by the greatness that is Leach. Just ask the Ducks who were also in awe of his magnificence.

This is Leach's conference and we are all just living in it.

Is Rich Rod seat getting warm? Gotta be disappointing after such a hot start vs UTEP, UTSA, Northern Arizona, Community College for the Blind.

Dude this is Arizona football.. You have to be winless in a season before your seat is warm. Quit trolling.

We've been decimated by injuries and our whole roster is gassed.
