The Huskies weren't among the 64 teams picked for the NCAA tournament, then neither were they among the 32 teams picked for the NIT. Down here at Seattlest HQ, stunned silence.

Even Karl Rove Isn't As Surely Screwed As the Dawgs

To demonstrate what the USC Trojans will do to the Huskies during Saturday's football game we have taken this ordinary cantaloupe and let our good friend Tusky here stomp all over it. You see Tusky is an 5,000 pound Indian elephant, and is turning the cantaloupe into a flat pile of mush. more ›
