Jim Moore of the P-I reports this shocking news today: The Wazzu Cougars have passed the UW Huskies in apparel sales, according to a company that keeps track of such things.

Which is why we are clearing our schedule to watch the purple and gold get absolutely stomped in Norman tomorrow when they face the number 10 ranked Oklahoma Sooners.

The 1985 Orange Bowl between UW and Oklahoma is one of Seattlest's earliest memories. After Dad told us to stop fidgeting (we were real nervous) we sat our 8-year-old butt in a chair, by the 17-inch Sony Trinitron, and watched the flickering images of a titanic Husky upset beam back from Miami.

With its portrayal of a tour gone awry and a band's refusal to admit it, we think Spinal Tap is one of the best rock-n-roll movies ever made. Come see the real-life version of the movie when the Ashlee Simpson World Tour stops by the Paramount on Thursday. From the Saturday Night Live Acid Reflux debacle to the booing at the Orange Bowl, this has been a tour for the ages. This is definitely a show high in comedic value. After the concert, you might want to sign the 'Stop Ashlee Simpson' petition, since in this world there are very few issues that Republicans and Democrats can agree on. As of this morning, there are still plenty of tickets available on Ticketmaster.
