Old Buzz: Giant ego, bad grades, big gut. And that’s the positive stuff.
New Buzz: Tells Seattle Times he was better than Brink and Rogers. Paper fails to note he was referring to poker and PlayStation2. |

Finally, the kid with a nose for trouble catches a break, albeit in the PR wars rather than the legal ones. Sure, he was nailed for a suspended license after doing his time. But the court of public opinion is shaking its head at the Boss Hogg-like trap set up for him by Colfax's finest. |

Somehow, “Our team’s drunk and disorderly problems pale next to the deviant crap your dudes have been doing over the years,” doesn’t seem like it will catch on with the crimson faithful.

They’re not just for food prep anymore. The new Mattingly45 is so versatile you can cook up a rasher of bacon in the a.m. and then crack heads with it in the p.m. Great against butterknife-wielding girly men in soccer shorts. |

Sure, he was so low on the depth chart he had to look up to tie his shoes. And yep, his two run-ins with the law in the span of 10 days looks bad when toying with the notion of a transfer to an Ivy League school. But hells bells, the mere thought of him being so blotto as to lose his lunch in the back seat of a police cruiser has to put a smile on your face in an Animal House sort of way. |

Old Buzz: Crusty old warhorse with lots of insight.
New Buzz: A bitter old warhorse with a selective memory. Matt Eichelberger, Andy Roof, Kenny Alfred and others during Burtnett's time in Pullman, as well as Cory Mackay this year, all chose Washington State over an offer from Washington.

Talk about dodging a bullet. The Cougar grid team’s pizza-boy-punching miscreant of the early 80s is just lucky the Seattle Times hadn't yet discovered that Pullman was in Washington. Combine his misdeeds with Craig Ehlo's chewing tobacco heist and it would have been STOP THE PRESSES! time. |

The KJR Radio sidekick has a voice and delivery that make fingernails on a chalkboard sound like Pavarotti. Combine that with juvenile excitement over the Seattle Times' critical report on the Cougs and it's like listening to a cross between Squiggy and Danny Bonaduce.

This frequent message board poster consistently displays knowledge and context in his missives, plus a biting wit when responding to the entitlement crowd over at Montlake. |
