UW Columnists Channel Shawn Miller’s Ex-Girlfriend
Going to tomorrow’s Ducks/Huskies football game? Need a bit of material to get psyched up for cheering your damn head off? Look no further than the noisemakers being exercised over at the Yew-Dub student newspaper‘s sports section:
Oregon’s defeat of Washington in ’94 was punctuated by Kenny Wheaton intercepting a pass from UW quarterback Damon Huard and waddling it back for a score. Since then, the Ducks have clung to that one play much like the Mariners cling to Edgar’s double. It is the one shining moment in their otherwise dismal existence.
This is coming from a school that’s lost its past ten conference games. But is that not enough forgetful trash talk to convince you to sacrifice your vocal chords for a few days? How about this:
