The object of football is winning the Natty. We have MASSIVELY underachieved the past 25 years. And Oregon has overachieved.
The only difference between them and us is that they want to win and we want to tell ourselves whatever outcome we get is okay and we are nice.
It is maddening. We should be a top 10 team every year with the resources and fanbase we have.
But Doogs will make excuses for every failure.
Recruiting? Oh we don’t pay recruits (lol yeah right) so we can’t get our dudes!!
Coaches? Maybe their wives don’t want to be here!
Marketing? We don’t want to be Oregon!!! (How about being Ohio State??)
GameDay? Why do you guys care so much??
It all boils down to what you want. If you want to win Natties and think that UW is underachieving every year we aren’t in the top 10, then you are my kind of fan.
If you see that and think “that’s unrealistic” then you are a Doog.
lol – look at fucking Oregon. In 91 if you had to bet on who would have the best 30 years (THIRTY) from that point between us and them NO ONE would’ve thought it was realistic for them to even be close to us. You would’ve heard all the excuses Doogs make plus a million…
But guess what, they stopped feeling sorry for themselves and made it happen and we STILL have everything better than they do.
FOH if you want to make excuses why we shouldn’t ON AVERAGE be in the top 10 at EVERYTHING.
