Kind of late, but better late than never.

Ha! Let 'em protest! The airport is in Idaho, not Washington. By
the way, we are sending our Boise State Broncos to UW in September to

The UW's attitude has severely tested my Husky loyalty. Nevertheless,
your Broncos will return home in shameful defeat.



I smell a wager.


I would not be caught dead betting in favor of the UW for anything.
However, the Broncos were lucky last year. They should not even think
about playing against *real* football teams.
