For those of us that live here in Washington state the Apple Cup is approaching and this year it’s looking like a real doozy. There is nothing like watching two rivals duke it out for last place in the Pac-10.
For anyone unfamiliar with the Apple Cup it’s the big rivalry football game between the University of Washington Huskies and my own Washington State Cougars. While it might not get the national media coverage for those of us that attended one of the two schools the rivalry is along the lines of Michigan v. Ohio State, Texas v. Oklahoma, Auburn v. Alabama, Florida v. Georgia, etc.
So for this season the Huskies have posted a stellar record of 0-6 and they have to face Notre Dame next week so I think we can safely chalk up 0-7. In all fairness my own Cougars haven’t exactly been lighting the world on fire. They’ve posted a 1-8 record and have allowed 4 teams to score 60-plus points. This last Saturday USC played their second and third string players the entire second half and the Cougars couldn’t even get a fucking field goal.
I think it’s time for both sides to put aside their differences and embrace the shittiness of our teams. In that spirit a friend of a friend designed this potential Apple Cup shirt and it was just to good not to post. I think we need to get a batch of these made up. Who’s in?
Thanks to Thompson for letting us post his design.

“They’ve posted a 1-8 record”
Just a reminder that that lone win was against a Division I-AA school…

Duly noted.
Actually, Esteban made those designs. And we are selling those t-shirts. I’m not sure who told you otherwise: http://myspace.com/ferocioustees
Genius! I once called Pullman home, too, and can say with some authority that a shit-pie would only be made tastier with the addition of apples.
Fuckin’ Cougs.
