Since it is rivalry week this needs to be posted. It is long so I will hide it under spoiler tags.

Why We Hate The University of Washington, by GoCougsBaby



Virtually every major sports team has a rival. Most of the time, the basis for these rivalries are mere geometric proximity or a particular historical event. For some fans on both sides of the Apple Cup line, the rivalry starts and ends there: it’s just a game between cross-state rivals with a long history.



But for some WSU fans it goes a little deeper than that. They hate the University of Washington. They hate their coaches. They hate their administrators. They hate their fight song. They hate their colors. They hate their admissions department. They hate their budget office. They even hate their museum if you can believe it. They loathe the basic premise, philosophy, and modus operandi of the institution.



In a different situation, such disdain might be misplaced. But in the case of the University of Washington, the school seems to do everything possible to earn this ire.



THE HISTORY



The origins of the diametric differences between WSU and UW can be traced the to the shear bipolar makeup of the State of Washington itself. Whether you are talking political, economic, ecological, or geological composition; eastern and western Washington could not be more contrary. In that light, it was surely inevitable that the two halves would go on to house rival academic institutions.



But the differences have grown well beyond that original framework.



Washington State University, a landgrant institution built in the middle of nowhere (even by Eastern Washington standards) was charged with educating the masses. It has functioned ever since out of an emphasis on necessity.



The University of Washington, which exists today on one of the most expensive pieces of property in the state, was founded in order to boost the prestige of the city of Seattle and educate the sons of the local elite. It has functioned from the very beginning on an emphasis of prestige.



The UW bears no geographic relationship to the original grammar school campus that founded in 1861, which closed its doors three times without graduating a single student through 1876, and had only grade school aged students. But the university still clings to this older date for the sole purpose boosting its legacy as being “the oldest public institution of higher learning west of the Mississippi.” The original school which had students a young as seven years old, issued its first official “bachelor's degree” to a seventeen year old girl who promptly went on to attend actual college at the University of California at Berkley which was founded decades earlier.



THE ARISTOCRACY



Few public institutions encompass a greater air of aristocracy than the UW. In that light, it is no accident that in 1892, when the students faced with the choice of its school colors being red, white and blue (the colors of George Washington's flag); or purple and gold (the colors of royalty), they overwhelmingly voted in favor of the latter, citing a poem by Lord Byron as their inspiration. Likewise it is entirely appropriate that the school song would later become, "Bow Down to Washington." From the earliest days, the UW clung to a blue-blood mentality and little has changed.



THE GREED



Today University of Washington is the largest recipient of federal subsidy for its research of any public university, a distinction it has held since 1974. The school wears this distinction with pride as a symbol of the quality of researchers it has, but the academic community grumbles that it is more sign of a school who has learned how to exploit the system and is more concerned with the grant writing potential of its professors than their teaching ability.



THE FRAUD



The UW’s tendency towards entitlement and greed has been on display more clearly over the past few years.



In 2004, the UW medical school spent $25 million in legal fees to defend hundreds of members of its staff in the largest Medicare fraud case in U.S. history. It paid the federal government a settlement of $35 million for running a “criminal enterprise,” of overbilling, with a “conscious and deliberate decision to ignore the facts before them.”



One medical school professor, who was previously been brought on sanctions for allowing his students to see tightly guarded test booklets for national medical exams, was found guilty of obstruction of justice during the investigation, and for creating an “atmosphere of fear and intimidation” within his department. Rather than terminating this professor with ample cause, the university paid him $3.7 million before he was sent to prison.



THE THEFT



In 2005, a peer-conducted investigation of prestigious paleontology collections at the UW’s Burke Museum of Natural History, concluded nearly all of the fossil specimens had been collected illegally from federal lands without permits. Of greater concern was the fact that no field research notes were kept by UW professors or students, with the exception of a few “torn pieces of brown paper bags.” The only maps kept were little more than pencil dots on road maps, of “unusable scale, outdated, or unrelated to any known collecting areas,“ and unusable for any research purposes. What data was collected was found to have “errors not within a reasonable margin of error.” With suggested recorded collection points were many miles off from any probable locations. One particular fossil, which “if its presumed stratigraphic occurrence is correct,” is the “last fossil primate known in North America, placed the locality on a highway in Oregon.” The study concluded that “fossil collection in the Burke Museum cannot be relied upon for its accuracy or its precision,” was collected and recorded with “a disregard for completeness and accuracy, either though carelessness or deliberate falsification,” and that “their significance to modern paleontology may have been drastically and perhaps irretrievably reduced.” In other words, the UW has an ill-gotten multi-million dollar dinosaur trophy room, and destroyed it academic value in the acquisition of it.



THE DISLOYALTY



In 2012 the UW announced that in order to boost revenues, it will be admitting fewer in-state students. The UW desires the higher out-of-state tuition rates (even at reduced academic admittance requirements) over educating the more qualified Washington residents. WSU announced it would admit more in-state freshmen to help cover the gap.



In Olympia, UW student lobbyists argued with legislators to raise their tuition rates to boost revenues for their school. WSU student lobbyists (along with the other 4 public universities) argued strenuously for lower tuition rates to help financially struggling students.



In 1917 the UW got a law passed outlawing any other medical schools from being opened in the State of Washington. Faced with criticism for the tremendous shortage of physicians in Washington, particularly in rural areas, UW argues it only has the resources to train the 140 students they currently admit. WSU under the leadership of Elson Floyd, convinced the legislature to revoke UW's monopoly, and with heavy opposition from the UW Medical, won approval to pursue funding for its own medical school in Spokane. The school will open in 2017 and projects to be able to accommodate 120 students by 2021.



THE DISHONESTY



Top leaders at UW Medicine appeared to use the tragic shooting at Pilchuck high school for a PR stunt, when it issued sharply worded criticisms of the competence of Providence Regional Medical Center and their use of local ambulance services and EMTs for the shooting victims. UW Medicine, which owns and operates Airlift Northwest, claimed that they had helicopters hovering over the high school and local paramedics waived them off. These helicopters did not exist, and when local firefighters and medical personnel wrote UW Medical and begged them to set the record straight, they were responded with ridicule. UW committed to this fallacy for for five months until freedom of information act requests acquired the flight logs which proved no helicopters were anywhere near the high school, and any trips to Harborview Medical Center would have involved a full 30 minute trip, rather than the 12 minute ambulance ride to Providence. UW Medicine issued an apology for the error, but no explanation why they released misleading information about helicopters being turned away, nor failed to correct it when Providence was under heavy criticism from families and the media. The letter of apology states that UW Medicine had been trying set the record straight for months, but email chains from administrators directly contradict this claim, and show administrators were very pleased with the level of criticism Providence was receiving in the media.



THE CHEATING AND CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR



Then there is the athletic department, who’s ethical track record is almost beyond belief. Issues revolving cheating, recruiting violations, and protecting felonious behavior of players goes back generations. For the purposes of maintaining some degree of brevity, we will focus primarily on the last 30 years.



October 1985: Former UW player Michael Kay Green is arrested after a two-month spree in which he attacked nine women and children. He is convicted of several robbery charges, rape at knife point, abduction, and murder charges. He blames addiction to steroids from his time at UW for his violence.



May 1987: UW runningback Trevin Moore is arrested in connection with the knifing and robbery of a Seattle woman, and is also convicted in three other attacks on Seattle women. He is given an “exceptionally light sentence of one year,” according to the Seattle Times.

UW football player Doug Barnes and basketball player Prentiss Perkins are also charged. The charges are later reduced to third degree sexual abuse, a misdemeanor.



1996: Police respond on five separate occasions to calls of domestic violence at the home of UW football player Curtis Williams. One of those times Williams is charged with misdemeanor assault. The final time he is arrested again for misdemeanor assault the police note a puddle of blood in the bedroom and his wife was badly beaten.

Four days later the wife calls the police again saying he had choked her and cut her face.



September 1997: Williams is convicted of 3rd degree assault and sentenced to time served.

October 2000: King County prosecutor Maleng drops rape charges against Jerramy Stevens despite victim testimony, eyewitness testimony, and DNA match to semen in her anus and vagina. The victim was determined not to be a credible witness because she was either drugged or drunk at the time.



October 2000: Stevens is cited for speeding in the hit and run case and receives a $119 ticket.



December 2000: Jeremiah Pharms’ neighbor contacts police about concerns over the pitbulls he is raising in his back yard, the bloody rags everywhere, and the lack of food and water for them. Police take some of the dogs to a shelter where they are described as “all bony” and with heavy chains and padlocks around their necks and having been drinking from a gutter drain. He is written up for having unlicensed dogs and more dogs than allowed. Pharms never returns for the dogs after the Rose Bowl.



April 2001: His football eligibility now gone, UW linebacker Jeremiah Pharms is finally arrested for shooting and robbing his drug dealer 14 months earlier (now 3 months after UW’s trip to the Rose Bowl). 14 months prior, UW police collect Pharms bloody fingerprint and football glove from the crime scene and take interviews from the victim who personally knows Pharms and identifies him as the shooter.

January 2015: Jerramy Stevens is arrested (and later convicted) for DUI while driving the US Women's National Soccer team van with the headlights off. Hope Solo who was also drunk and in the van, became belligerent with police and was suspended by US Soccer.



THE CONCLUSION



This is not just another rivalry. Washington State University, its alumni, its administrators, and athletic fans have legitimate beefs with the University of Washington that go beyond the traditional rivalry metrics. They don’t like their philosophy, and they don’t like the way they do business. To the degree that our rivalry is lopsided is that regard is of little concern to them.



This is not another example of the poor school envying the rich school. It’s a loathing of a rich school’s refusal to live within its rather ample means, and furthermore, often seeking out supplemental ill-gotten loot from the public.



This is not another example of the remedial school resenting the smart kid school. It’s a loathing of an academic institution who values its prestige over its duty to educate its own citizens.



This is not another small football program bitter at getting beat by the bigger one. It’s a loathing of an athletic department endowed with every single economic, numerical, and regulatory advantage still opting to cheat to get an edge.



This is not an alumni admonishing the warts and troublemakers of its rival, while blatantly ignoring their own. It’s a loathing of an institution which has repeatedly breached serious ethical boundaries; and beyond merely covering them up, has excused and even encouraged major federal crimes of its teachers, players, and students while keeping themselves above the law.



This is why, if our small, slow, weak, under-trained, and under-equipped army of courageous young football players manages to kick the snot out of the University of Washington this Saturday, it will be with a personal level of satisfaction the likes of which Husky fans will never know.



For we bow down to Washington....but only so we can spit on their shoes.

He was fucked up.


For a while

[Bob Dole]

So a Nebraska offensive lineman just flopped on an Iowa player on the ground, but it wasn't flagged because he didn't have an arrowhead on his helmet.

[BWillie]

Hhhahaa Mike Riley and Nebraska threw a deep fade route out of the shotgun, no play action, on 4th and 1 on the 28 yard line. Im not makin this up

[displacedinMN]

HAWKEYES WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CaliforniaChief]

Niiiiiiiiice job Hawkeyes.

[jspchief]

Good to see the Hawkeyes win that one. Probably the worst their offense has looked all year.

They just tried to run up the middle too much. Once they started hitem on the corners it was easy pickens. Thought Nebraska would have more speed since they always are supposed to recruit well

0 for 9 on 3rd down, but Iowa still controlled the game from start to finish. Because of their tempo and pace of play Iowa is never going to wow people like those system gimmick offenses do. Theyve now had the lead in 7+ hours of game play. Thats a sign of a solid squad IMO

Solid? NO doubt.
Next-level good? We're going to find out.

[NewChief]

Jesus I hope we don't draw a Big 12 team for our bowl. The torching of our secondary would be epic.

[displacedinMN]

TCU/Baylor proving that southern teams hate bad weather

Pretending to be a defensive battle

[lewdog]

TCU and Baylor going into OT

[NewChief]

I know it's suboptimal conditions, but still:

The amount of heaving up and hoping that you get a PI call in this game (and the Big 12 in general) is a little annoying.

[notorious]

Is that referee fucking blind?

[lewdog]

They said the ball was out of bounds even though the runner was in.

[lewdog]

Well that was easy anyway.

[notorious]

The fans were probably praying for a 2 point attempt just to end this game.


I noticed the cheerleaders were still in their tights........

Ou vs. OSU is for the Big 12 title.

[Toby Waller]

enjoy the Michigan and Penn State wins today !

[DaKCMan AP]

So if OK State wins the Big XII will need help to make the playoff.

[displacedinMN]

Best comment of the night

Turns out the best defense in the Big XII was rain.

[displacedinMN]

Interesting Iowa story lines.

1. IF MSU loses and Michigan wins. Iowa would be playing their old QB-Jake Rudock. The person that was much aligned last year. The one who needed special permission to play at Michigan. That proves that almost anyone looks good when surrounded by top tier players.

2. IF Iowa wins the BIG title, they could play Oklahoma in the play off. Depending on how seeds fall. Iowa interviewed Ferentz and Stoops-they coached together for Fry. Stoops took the OU job one day early after Iowa was going to offer to him. Ferentz was by no way the second choice, but OU got to Stoops first. Its really worked out for both of them.


If you want a good story about coaching. Look up info on the Fry coaching tree. It is better than most other football coaches and rivals Henry Iba in basketball.

[rockymtnchief]

GO BLUE!

[displacedinMN]

Anyone interested.

Northwest Missouri has a playoff game today, and it sounds like video will be free.

http://portal.stretchinternet.com/nwms/

[CaliforniaChief]

I'm rooting for a Michigan State win today. If that happens, Iowa's in a great position going into the Conference Title game. Win and go to the playoff. Lose and in all likelihood they're coming to Pasadena.

Go Hawks!

[MotherfuckerJones]

Lee Corso is awesome ROFL

Isn't that the exact definition of second choice?

Not really, more undecided at that point.

As a big Wisconsin fan, nice to see Iowa back. Miss those matchups.

People are dogging on Iowa, but I have yet to see them play.

I am looking forward to watching them next week.

My cousin goes to CMU. Works with the players and said he heard they pay like shit too. It's honestly soured me on them coupling that with Meyer and Harbaugh in the Big Ten.

There should be a replay of the NU game later this week or sunday.
Check your local listings.:)
NU game isn't very representative of Iowa's season. Worst their pass offense had looked all year.

Iowa's pretty blue collar. Good line play, balanced offense, limit mistakes. They aren't sexy but they play good all around football.

From what I've seen, this.

NU played a tough game. QB was crap. If you get to see a replay of the Iowa/NW game or Iowa/Wisc game-watch it. even the short replay versions.

I wonder what Bo ryan has on him. Although Bo looks like a mob boss.

Bo is a badass. He's untouchable. He's brought that basketball program back.


Wisconsin needs to do all it can to get a guy like Les Miles.

One was a screen pass in which the runner trucked a guy then bounced it outside to the end zone.

Unc slinging it

I was worried about this game 2-8 in the last 10 vs those flea infested muts. Apparently the Heels are looking to Clemson!

Lookin good bud!

[Sassy Squatch]

2 15 yards back to back. Jesus.

[Prison Bitch]

Is there any credible argument bs Henry winning the Heisman?

[Toby Waller]

kind of gross actually

Notre Dame/Stanford turning into a shootout.

[GloucesterChief]

Notre Dame/Stanford turning into a shootout.

Stanford's D isn't that great and Notre Dame's isn't either.

[ohiobronco2]

Brian Kelly seems like such an insufferable d-bag.

[SPchief]

If you're not already switched over to Fox, you need to be

[GloucesterChief]

Shaw showing his clock management is worse than Reid's.

[kstater]

He's clearly down. How the fuck do you even originally call it a TD?

[58-4ever]

WOW. Notre Dame!

[kstater]

I mean jesus, the line judge is right fucking there

[kstater]

The fuck?

[O.city]

Now they'll miss and be tied because Kelly's dumbass chased points in the 3rd

[SPchief]

I guess they wanted to make sure Stanford still had time on the clock?

[ohiobronco2]

Shaw showing his clock management is worse than Reid's.

It's unbelievable that he didn't use any of them and that Notre Dame was given that touchdown.

[tk13]

Hogan with the bullet. Stanford into FG range.

[kstater]

Why the fuck are you running it there? It's still a 40+ fg.

[LiveSteam]

Boom!

[SPchief]

Hell of a game

[tk13]

Money. Notre Dame is toast.

[GloucesterChief]

It's unbelievable that he didn't use any of them and that Notre Dame was given that touchdown.

Worked in the end but he got damn lucky.

[kstater]

At least ND wasn't gifted that

[58-4ever]

Holy Shit. What and ending!! That's the best end to a game that I've seen all year.

[The Franchise]

Fuck.

[58-4ever]

Hogan looks a bit like Drew Brees.

[ohiobronco2]

Worked in the end but he got damn lucky.

ROFL I guess that is why he is a head coach and I'm not. Helluva game.

[Sassy Squatch]

Probably would've been better for ND to have it at the one instead or being gifted the touchdown.

[DaneMcCloud]

Altar boys everywhere cower in fear

[lewdog]

And now all the ND "fans" who have never been to Indiana, let alone a student at ND, weep in unison.

[ohiobronco2]

Don't throw it to stone hands!!!!

[Pablo]

Watching notre dame lose never gets old. Fun game.

[Al Bundy]

Notre Dame rightfully not in the mix for the playoff.

In other news... after all the rumors and craziness of the last week, nothing happening at LSU:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Les Miles said he found out after the game that he&#39;d continue to be <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/LSU?src=hash">#LSU</a>&#39;s head coach.</p>&mdash; Ross Dellenger (@DellengerAdv) <a href="https://twitter.com/DellengerAdv/status/670823920623333376">November 29, 2015</a></blockquote>

[Coach]

Looks like Miles got an stay of execution.

[Great Expectations]

IfLes is fired it won't happen until,1/2/16.

Also, Norte Dame and Stanford have looked average all year. It's great that only teams with a shot at winning two games in a row will be allowed in the CFB.

Looking at some of the final scores today, I have to ask: does anyone in college football play any fucking defense?

Bama, OU, and Michigan State would be the teams that plays some kind of defense.

What the heck was up with Desmond King this weekend? Late to a meeting, fumbled a punt, generally played with his head up his butt except for jumping on the fumbled kickoff. He's been awesome all year but wow...
