The Cougar Is A Brave And Noble Ceature - WSU Hoops Preview

November 12th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Well, quasi-preview. Since the team has already played one exhibition and one preseason game, you’ve already had a chance to “view” them. That’s my bad… kept putting off the preview edition of my men’s hoops coverage until all the rankings were in and then got steamrolled by work and school. That being […]

The Cougar Is A Brave And Noble Creature - WSU Fooball

November 1st, 2007 · 2 Comments

Yes, yes, yes. That was a good win last week… but I’m not entirely certain why it was such a surprise. I’m almost offended for the players that many of the fans stormed the field after the game; that’s a pretty bad indictment about how low their expectations were coming into Martin Stadium […]

Coug Fans - Don’t Hate The Big Doba

October 28th, 2007 · 1 Comment

Yesterday’s game against UCLA was a great one; one that saw the Cougars lead almost all game long; one that saw the Cougars fail to capitalize on a lot of opportunities. From my perspective, there were a few questionable decisions by the head coach, but what was funny to me was how often, and […]

Well, sadly the bye week last week was the Cougs best Saturday in a while: they got some much needed rest, extra planning for UCLA, and for the first time in four weeks the Saturday did not result in a Pac-10 loss. I really think that this team is better than their record, and […]

Boy, What A Crappy System

October 16th, 2007 · 1 Comment

I love parity. There, I’ve said it. I love it and the BCS does not, because once again it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas controversy.
Right now, Jason King at Yahoo! Sports predicted that the BCS title game will see Ohio State losing to Oklahoma. That was a nice try and […]

The Cougar Is A Brave And Noble Creature

October 12th, 2007 · 3 Comments

It’s been a really long week at school this week; thus the lack of posts. But it’s Friday… which means I get to procrastinate for the next 36 hours. Blog on!
So here’s what’s going on here in Pullman: the Cougs’ season is not living up to the expectations. Given the fact that […]

I’ve Got A Few Beers In Me And A Few New Theories About Mike Gundy

September 28th, 2007 · No Comments

You know, the sports world has taken a few days off to rip Mike Gundy about how “unprofessional” his tirade was last weekend. Well, first of all, isn’t it a head coach’s job to protect his players… and make sure that any potential recruits know that he will back them? By that standard, […]

The Cougar Is A Brave And Noble Creature

September 26th, 2007 · No Comments

Well, we’re 2-2 and lost to two of the best 10 teams in the country; so I’m not exactly worried. I wasn’t all that enthused by the performance against USC, but it’s important to remember just how good this Trojan team is supposed to be and honestly they were just way too physically superior […]

[Each week during the football season I will be breaking down the WSU Cougar’s weekend match up and then predicting the outcome; let’s see if I can get one right!]
So to recap the season - briefly - the Cougs went into Madison and lost to the #7 Badgers by 21 points (42-21), beat SDSU […]

Ummm, I Think This Dude Is Sending Mixed Messages

September 13th, 2007 · 1 Comment

Keeping with the whole Michigan - Notre Dame game which is certainly going to be a debacle, here’s a story that just makes me ask a few questions.
Pastor Chad McCallum is a former season ticket holder at the Big House and his wife is Michigan alumni and the two have been Michigan fans… up until […]
