4. Does anyone see/appreciate the fallout of FUGLY games such as this? Specifically, during the game (per OSU game thread), you had die-hard Stanford fans tuning out (which I did - why would I subject myself to that?). Also during the game, I had a friend from Sacto advise me that he was canceling his plans to come to the UW game because he was so upset with what he was watching (I hope he reconsiders). Other posters said they were "emotionally detached" from the game - almost as a defense mechanism to the horror they were watching. These impacts are real - hard to quantify, but real. I think a safe conclusion is that games such as this - even with the escape W - do not help (and actually hurt) the program by undermining strength of fan support.
Agree.
Who would want to be associated with Shaw as a COACH?
How embarrassing!
