Interesting that the interjection of football happens on this 'political talk' thread, when in was politics interjected in football that's dominated so much controversy.

There's a story at American Thinker today about the Don James coached Washington Huskies of the 70's that dominated everybody. Outspoken conservative James was lauded by Reagan which caught the ire of the liberal UW president and led to the downfall of the coach and the entire UW football program. As bray knows, the northwest is crazy with liberalism.

Never heard that story. He did get bounced for pretty minor offenses. Right now with the downfall of the NFL and all the entertainment avenues we are seeing politics in everything.

Hope it doesn’t hit college FB but it will and is. Our coach wants to be the first black National Championship coach which is as political as it gets.

Thanks, Chiller! Great AT article. Good ol’ UW dirty dealing, and hypocrisy. The Seattle-area’s veneration of Don James’s statue at Husky Stadium says it all.
