Everyone has a weakness (even Chuck Norris). LSU is no different. Quarterback is the one and only position where the Huskies have an edge.

Let's talk about what can happen when a national title contender (like LSU) plays an early season game 2,000 miles from home in a loud, hostile stadium against an unranked power conference team (like Washington). One thing that can happen is that the national title contender will get stomped. Ask the 1983 Washington Huskies.

The Lingerie Football League's Seattle Mist--twelve nubile, busty, hard-bodied, long-legged...sorry, what were we talking about? Oh, yeah, the Mist are holding a public practice Wednesday from noon to 2 p.m. at Starfire Sports Complex in Tukwila. If you are more into dudes, the UW football team has an open practice Wednesday at 4 p.m. at Husky Stadium. You'll have to use a little more imagination, though, as the Dawgs won't be in their skivvies. Also, high school soccer practice schedules can be found here.

A former Husky linebacker is among the football players missing off Florida's Gulf Coast after a weekend fishing trip. Someone was shining lasers at planes at SeaTac last night, and the pilots are all, "Gah! Get that thing outta my eye!" There's no quick fix for the economy, but there's a free fix for your pet. Today is the last day to get your dog or cat spayed for free at Seattle Animal Shelter and it also happens to be the day that Jason the Bachelor hands out the final rose. Here's hoping the loser goes out like a lamb.

This fall we are combining our love of the football and our dream of learning to cook by preparing a meal from the city of the Seahawks' opponent.

Way back in May, we wrote about The University of Washington looking for a new school anthem. We are pleased to report the waiting is over for our purple and gold brethren: an anthem has been chosen. The song "Rise Up With Pride for Washington" was penned by UW senior, Catherine Henderson. The anthem debuted last Friday at a UW fundraising gala, but for those of us who aren't big UW donors the song will be introduced to the purple public at the UW vs. ASU football game on November 8th. Since no one will be going to Husky games in November in hopes of seeing a Husky win, we might as well all go to hear the new tune. You gotta take little victories and enjoyments in a season like this.

Last week we were taking Husky football with a friend who was upset that the University hadn't fired coach Ty Willingham. We mentioned that, though he hadn't won many games, Willingham had restored integrity to the football program.

The Seattle Times breaks the story of just how diseased college sports fans have become. The newspaper got about 1,000 emails that Husky fans sent to University of Washington president Mark Emmert, athletic director Todd Turner, and coach Ty Willingham through a public records request.

For the second year in a row, a legendary coach has ended his career with a loss at Qwest Field.

Husky quarterback Isaiah Stanback is out for the rest of his Husky career after his foot imploded during Saturday's loss to the Beavers.
