Why you bringin' up old shi t?

and whats a couple of weeks compared to all the non-stop talk of the past 20 years that we have to hear over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over again. on a side note, i can't believe that dude actually said that the field cost you a national championship. it takes balls to make comments like that. don't get me wrong, the field was the worst i think i have ever seen at any level of play! but ballsy comment none-the-less.

I'm sorry, I've just gotten so used to Griz fans living in the past that I've started to do it as well.

Each November and December, that turf would deteriorate into a muddy mess that was almost unplayable — especially for the visiting team."

From the article, last paragraph.

I thought the last five words of the article (bolded above) were the most telling in terms of the author's bias.

The whole point of the rest of the article is that bad field conditions affect both teams equally, and then he ends the article by stating that the conditions in WA-Griz pre-2001 made the field almost unplayable "especially for the visiting team." Well George, tell us, which is it -- does it affect both teams the same, or does it affect the visiting team more?

(Or does it only affect the visiting team more if the stadium in question is WA-Griz??)
