I'm trying ... I'm trying real hard to be mature

I'm trying ... I'm trying real hard to be mature

The Huskies are headed to the college football playoff, and it's taking everything in my power not to be absolutely insufferable in this moment.

I do not have children. If I did have children, however, I believe it’s likely that my happiness on Friday night would be close to – without exceeding – the happiness I would have felt at their birth. I also suspect that if I had children, I’d think that anyone who made a statement similar to the one I just typed had their priorities askew.

Enough about entirely hypothetical kids because there’s some very real happiness to discuss.

Washington only won the Pac-12 Championship they did so by beating Oregon for the second time this season, the third time in 15 months.

I’m now going to attempt something very much out of character for me. I’m going to try and be an adult about this.
