A few years back, I uncovered an old VHS copy of the 1992 WSU Football highlight video. Since it's now officially Game Week, I'm sharing it here it in all its grainy, cheesy, mint green OmniTurf glory. (Doing it in five parts, starting with the intro, which is all footage from the 1991 season.)

Like all Idaho games, this Idaho-Cal Poly game would be better if they were playing it at the Kibbie Dome. And if Paul Wulff was still on the Cal Poly sideline, picking his nose.

Oh man, this hurts. Coach Doba wasn't just one of the nicest guys you could meet in football, he was one of the nicest guys you could ever meet, period. The fun, funny grandpa that everybody wished they had -- if your fun, funny grandpa could also design a blitz like nobody's business.

Doing a military flyover for the Field of Dreams Game seems gross. (Like, 25% more gross than it already is for other games in stadiums.)

Good afternoon. Here is Mets pitcher Jefry Yan's leaping strikeout celebration featuring Howard Dean's ill-fated 2004 election trail scream, because sometimes you can't rest until you've scratched that brain itch.

Baseball: Stats are sacred, none of the home run records in the steroid era are real Also baseball: Yeah, sure, you get an RBI for scoring this guy who was automatically placed on a base. Whatever, it's fine.
