Petersen's right. Husky Nation sounds boring and uninspiring.
So many other schools have similar sounding nicknames for their fanbases and they all suck. So during his chat at the Seattle Times, he (probably the Times, eager to replace all the traffic that left after Condotta left because I doubt Petersen cares what we call ourselves) asked some fans to give out some other names for us to toy around with.
You can tell from the results that no one at UW graduated in marketing and that we're all still stroking our dicks from the Seahawks SB. The unfortunate finalists are:
Legion of Dawg
Dawg Pack
Planet Husky
Legion by the Lake
The 12th Dawg
Purple Reign
Yeah, you can already cross off anyone with Legion or 12th. Fuck those.
Legion of Dawg
Dawg Pack
Planet Husky
Legion by the Lake
The 12th Dawg
Purple Reign
Purple Reign reminds me too much of Prince and it's also the name of a female superhero in Seattle who married Phoenix Jones. She looks like Mileena from Mortal Kombat. And Planet Husky sounds idiotic.
Legion of Dawg
Dawg Pack
Planet Husky
Legion by the Lake
The 12th Dawg
Purple Reign
So is the Dawg Pack okay with you guys? Seems to be the one everyone's voting for at the ST.
So Doogs from Renton/Kent/Auburn/Puyallup were smart enough to come up with Legion of Dawg/12th Dawg/Legion by the Lake but not smart enough to cast a vote?
