A guy in a bar leans over to the guy next to him and says, "Wanna hear a Cougar joke?"
The guy next to him replies, "Well before you tell that joke, you should know something. I'm 6' tall, 200 lbs., and I am a WSU alumni. The guy sitting next to me is 6'2 tall, weighs 225, and he's a WSU alumni. The fella next to him is 6'5 tall, weighs 250, and he's a WSU alumni.
"Now, you still wanna tell that joke?""
The first guy says, "Nah, not if I'm gonna have to explain it 3 times."

PULLMAN -- In midafternoon of a hazy day on the Palouse, it got to 93. No, that's not how many points Washington State ran up against Nevada-Las Vegas in the second football game of the season, it's a weather reference.

Nothing, from the blunt, early assessment that the Cougars were pitifully undersized, to the unfathomable blowouts, to the erosion of alumni belief that this thing is going to work someday.
