Husky defensive tackle Jordan Reffett kicks it off. Reporters asked him what he'd do if his daughter wanted to go to Wazzu.
"That wouldn't be allowed ... None of my kids--and I plan on having more--are going to be at WSU, because I want them to be able to get a job someday."
I'd imagine we'll get a response from a Coug pretty soon.

i forget the exact quote, but i'm pretty sure it was chris chandler that said it. it was something like, "i feel bad for them, because no matter what happens in the game, they still have to go back to pullman"
All I can say is that when you look at the top non-sporting Huskies in history you will see names like this:
Patrick Duffy
Dawn Wells(Mary Ann on Gilligan)
Ivar Hagland
Ted Bundy
Notable Cougs:
Sherman Alexie
Keith Jackson
Edward R. Murrow
Gary Larson(Far Side)
Paul Allen
What is really shocking is how mediocre the UW is in basketball and football. Name one other metropolitan area of four million people that is the only Division 1 school in town. Go Cougs!
Chris, I'm not really sure what your point is...Ivar Haglund is far cooler than all of the Coug alums listed, combined.
C'mon, Chris...
You missed:
Pappy Boyington (WWII Medal of Honor winner)
Bruce Lee
Kyle MacLachlan
Joel McHale
Rainn Wilson
Julia Sweeney
Bonnie Dunbar (astronaut)
Dale Chihuly
Beverly Cleary
Richard Karn
I suppose next you'd like to compare world-class institutions, research budgets, Nobel laureates, Pulitzer Prize winners, "US News and World Report" rankings or endowments too? I didn't think so.
Why, on Earth, do Cougs even try to compare non-athletic achievement? It's just sad.
How did I forget Steve Pool?! Put Steve Pool on our list too! :P
At least our fans are actually unemployed GRADUATES of the school, unlike the vast majority of "Husky" fans who so awesomely stumble through the words to their pathetic excuse for a fight song since the only times they've stepped foot on campus in their lifetimes is to cheer on their pathetic excuse of a football team.
To be heard all over Montlake on Saturday: "Bow down to Washington! (Da na na na!) Bow down to Washington (Da na na na!) ... Uh, da da da da da da da da daaaaa, da da da da da da da da daaaaa, daaa daaa daa daa daa daa daa daa ..."
What you'll hear from the Cougs, on the other hand, is a spirited rendition in which every fan actually went to the school and knows the words to the fight song. We will prove that, if nothing else, our awesome education has taught us how to flawlessly spell Washington State Cougs.
I mean, what the hell are Dardenelles anyway?*
Oh, and we'll be more drunk than you by the end of the game, too. You can't beat that. Ever.
* I know what they are, by the way. I'm making a point. Do you, Husky fan?
Hey Nuss, that was quite the rant. But, I could swear I remember you wearing Husky stuff in your formative years.
Just admit that what Reffet said was funny. We all know it isn't actually true.
Who are you and how do you know that? That secret is more closely guarded than what happened to the WMDs!
Yes, it was funny. I love the Apple Cup banter, as long as it's good-natured.
And, for the record, my child will never go to the University of Washington.
Jesus also went to the UW, as personified by Jim Caveizel.
Why would you try to compare academics to the UW? Your school is set up, and maintained, on purpose to be inferior to ours academically in everything non cow-feces related. Admissions are set up so if you can't get into the UW, you can still (kinda) get a college education on the state's dime.
Chris- your 5th guy on your "alumni" list didn't even stick around to graduate--sounds like you're doing some great things over there.
Nuss- I don't understand why it's a knock on the UW that people that went to neither school root for ours. People naturally like our school better than yours...so we suck?
thank you
