Lately I’m thinking…

Well the Cat game was obviously a sham, but at least we got to tailgate on a beautiful sunny day next to this little guy.  The game definitely wouldn’t have made the this list of the top 5 Cat-griz games of the last 50 years, although the game we went to in Missoula in 2002 was #1 and features a healthy dose of Maddie McCullough celebrating at the end.  Please note that the audio, video and especially interview locations in this video aren’t fantastic…

Shout out to…

Matty Miller!  Last week there was a Pagliaci pizza eating contest (sponsored by the Seattle Pizza Club) where going into the challenge it was thought eating a whole large pizza would win it.  Turns out Scott, Gee, Kellen, Reed and Miller all finished a large (which is ridiculous), and then Miller won in overtime with 14.75 pieces!  14.75 large pieces of pagliaci pizza!

This is really interesting…

UW doesn’t have a coach.  Or really a coaching staff at all.  And they’re losing recruits.  Coooool.  I’ve been saying for the last 2 months that what Sark did to get UW out of the basement has been awesome.  He helped get a new stadium, recruited well, connecting with the fan base etc.  But when I thought of the things I really liked about Sark, none of it really had to do with coaching on the field.  So I’ve been thinking UW needed a new coach to start competing for conference championships, specifically Pinkel or Mora.   Well fast forward 1 week later and Sark went to usc & Mora has turned the UW job down.  So now we have no coach.  Shoot.

This is really interesting…

We got our Christmas decorations and tree up.  The tree may be it’s last leg as it has 12 strands of lights on it and a couple full strands are out because 1 bulb must be out.  I didn’t even know where to start so we just added more strands to it.  For the record the tree has individually remote controlled color and white lights and I bought it for $60 dollars in 2005 with free super saver shipping from Amazon so it’s had a really good run.  The shipping was so super saver that it arrived the day after Christmas, on December 26th…

The soapbox…

I have a belly button UPDATE!!  It was brought to our attention that we initially left Kellen and Reed off the list of full pizza eaters.  Pardon the pun on ‘full’!  classic.   Anyway, as Kellen puts there were 3 levels.  1.  the people who ate a large pizza and wanted more (Gee, Miller).  2.  The people who ate a large pizza and wanted to kill themsevles (Kellen, Reed, Scott).  3.  The group that couldn’t eat a large ( Blazey, Shoe and Ahern).   Did those guys eat right before they came over or something!?!?  (also my max would probably be 6 so I shouldn’t talk, but instead I’m posting about it in a blog)
