C'mon Huskies. Seriously. We know what you are thinking.

We Saw Neuheisel's Return Going Differently
Back in April when our Husky tickets arrived in the mail, we carefully removed the UCLA ones and placed them in a safe place. The return of Rick Neuheisel was to be the game of the year, and we were looking to take out some program-in-free-fall frustration on Slick Rick.
Football Friday: What's Your "Hardest Hit" Memory? Edition
Say "New York Giants" to most Seahawk fans, and the conversation will turn to the 2005 OT game at Qwest Field, where the Giants missed three field goals, including two in overtime, and the Hawks prevailed 24-21. Kicker Jay Feely had an epic fail that day, and his holder, punter Jeff Feagles, had the best seat in the house as the trainwreck unfolded.
Football Friday: Save Tyrone Edition
In the 11th grade, we busted our Mom's lava lamp playing soccer in the house. (Yeah, she had a lava lamp. Whatever.) Our seemed-like-a-good-idea solution was to vacuum the two quarts of red oily goo with the family's shiny new Electrolux. About a week later, an odd smell started emanating from the storage closet where the vacuum was kept and we were grounded for two weeks. On Day 9 of the Great Grounding, we had a chance to see Lollapalooza. We begged to get a reprieve. We pleaded. We begged some more. We succeeded. That night we rocked out with Les Claypool and then didn't bother coming home until noon the next day, when there were more groundings.

The brackets are set for the men's NCAA Tournament--expect productivity at work to continue on a downward spiral as the week goes on. Carve out a couple hours in your schedule in the next three days to research and fill out your brackets for your office pool. Rick Neuheisel knows what we’re talking about. Or, you could select your winners based on mascots, school colors, or blind guessing. Those always seem to work for some lucky S.O.B. in the office pool.
Seahawks (9-5) vs. Cooking (A Pizza-and-Beer Gathering)
This fall we are combining our love of the football and our dream of learning to cook. On Sunday morning, following a trip to a local farmer’s market/major supermarket chain, we will be preparing a meal from the city of the Seahawks opponent. Then at halftime we will throw our badly burned hands in the air and make hot dogs.
