November 7, 20214 yr No. The Meltdown At Montlake By Jimmy Lake Not quite the pick, nor the end zone lay down, but definitely defines the game. I predicted the dawgs would do something stupid, and we have another stupid coaching move. The lay down was embarrassing, this one goes a bit beyond embarrassing, stay tuned how much beyond. The dawgs seem to always make losing even more entertaining, and for that we are grateful.
November 7, 20214 yr No. In this day and age that kind of behavior is a big no no. When your Head Coaching career is on thin ice, definitely a no no. Perhaps what Husky football represents was on full display. It's all rear view mirror stuff now. Go Ducks. Beat the Cougars Go 1-0 this week. Let's be 2 games clear in the North with 2 to go.
November 7, 20214 yr No. Man do I feel old. The player is being stupid. The coach barely glances the face mask -- the face mask, not his face. More coaches should get after player's for unacceptable behavior, such as Pittman's in 2 games now.

This used to be a much more physical game here jimmy and Joe were not little kids whose self esteem must be protected. And where the game wasn't frequently stopped for completed unnecessary reviews.

November 7, 20214 yr No. I'm NOT a coach Lake fan. But I would bet a great deal he would never do that to a player that was not in football armor. I thought it was ironic that Lake was losing his cool while the announcers were telling tales of Lake forcing the team to watch video of past emotional outbursts...so poetic.
November 8, 20214 yr No. Sure, hit and push your kids, players, employees to demonstrate how to keep emotions in check.
