Even though the two major college football teams in WA state will have no influence at the national championship level, both teams are doing better than what I (and probably most people) thought going into the season. There's a lot of football left in this season but so far, it looks like the Apple Cup might be competitive this year. Even though I'm a UW grad, I root for the Cougars most of the time and have no dislike for them like some Cougar fans have for the UW. And the opposite is quite true as well. Expressing anger, hatred, or booing of another player goes against how I was brought up and in my opinion shows a lack of good sportsmanship. Good natured ribbing between rival schools/teams is one thing, but sometimes fans, players, coaches go too far...it's just a game.
