Thanks for sharing, Dove. Remember when you started the whole Mojo thing because you picked Duke to beat us in 1999?
The Yard never forgets.
There were 5 of them, labeled The Dukie 5. Dogfather was one of them and sleazy Dove was also one of them.I thought that was dogfather.
Whatever happened to Dogfather?There were 5 of them, labeled The Dukie 5. Dogfather was one of them and sleazy Dove was also one of them.
I remember a guy named Tartan was another.There were 5 of them, labeled The Dukie 5. Dogfather was one of them and sleazy Dove was also one of them.
I haven’t felt the touch of a woman since 1999, please add that.I'm not sure if anyone is noticing (which may be better in the long run) but there are some little signs out there, that if they begin connecting, could become the mojo sources that we will need to complete this run.
Iowa is in the sweet sixteen for the first time since.... 1999.
St John's is in the sweet sixteen for the first time since.... 1999.
The women opened their tournament playing sixteen seed UTSA. As a one seed the men's seed faced sixteen seed UTSA in.... 1999.
In a tournament where we have to be steadily building momentum to reach the promised land, we have a sweet sixteen game against Michigan St. That one tournament where we needed to steadily build momentum and win a title, who happened to be our sweet sixteen opponent? Michigan St.
We are aligned (if seeds progress as they should) to face Duke in the regional final. The last time we were aligned (if seeds would have progressed as they should have) to face Duke in a regional final was.... 2011.
I'm sure there are a couple more, and even more will materialize. Mojo doesn't always appear as a tsunami. It can begin as a trickle and build, into a stream, then a river. Before you know it, mojo is carving out a canyon.
He's still friends with a bunch of original Yarders on Facebook. Hasn't changed one bit.Whatever happened to Dogfather?
You’re correct, he was WashingtonHusky. Those years fans of the next opponent used to come to the board for some pre-game discussion and backing of their team. Before the “Hamilton! Hamilton!!” Game in 1998 it was the West Coast Husky fans over here. There was a lot of confusion on their part because WashingtonHusky’s (future-Dogfather) comments were supporting UConn. At least seemingly they were most of the time because it wasn’t always easy to read his posts and they could be ambiguous. Especially in a thread with Washington fans. he never straight out said he was for UConn so the misunderstandings of the Washington fans kept occurring. It was hilarious to read.He's still friends with a bunch of original Yarders on Facebook. Hasn't changed one bit.
Funny story. When he first came on, he was WashingtonHusky (or something similar) because he lived in Washington state at the time. He asked for my number and, this was back in like 1997? For some reason I gave it to him and he'd call me at like 11 pm EST and talk to me for like an hour like we were best friends.
There was another time, he had to cut a conversation short because his son had gotten under the kitchen sink and was sitting in his diaper in a puddle of bleach.
