Well, the weekend's again arrived, and we'll therefore take a well-earned breather from the Totally Screwed up Emerald City 2011 Municipal Election Race, (and also broach a subject quite a bit less distasteful) and ineluctably zero in on another subject that's quite a bit more soothing and near and dear to our hearts... What else... WSU Wildcats Football!
Accordingly we' ll note that The WSU Wildcats are back home this evening, where they'll face Big Sky Conference peer Sacramento State U. at 6:00 p.m. (MT) at the newly re-turfed Stewart Stewart Stadium. On the heels of last week's Utah State ass-thrashing (USU 54, WSU 17), it'll definitely be fascinating to see what Coach Mac pulls out of his magic bag of tricks this week, wethinks.
Just so's we can help get WSU Wildcat Fans' minds right pre-game, the Standard-Examiner offers a little useful pre-game hype this morning...
And the Sacramento Bee has a few weak words on the topic, too, written apparently by a free-lance sports writer hack, who probably earned a few shekels for this lightweight (and weakly-researched writeup), in spite of the fact that this guy has the chronological sequence of WSU's Wyoming and Utah State games inexplicably and entirely reversed. Okay. Here's the lame Sac Bee story anyway, for what it's worth:
And here's the KZNS internet broadcast link, by the way, for streaming game audio:
For our readers' convenience we'll continue to expend endless time trying to link this evening's other obscure possible game broadcast audio and video links. (Remember the game doesn't start until 6:00 p.m.)
It'll definitely be fascinating to see what (if anything) Coach Mac pulls out of his bag of magic tricks tonight, No?
Whatever happens from here on out, however, let's not let WSU Wildcats fans (ironically) let "the cat" get your tongues, heheheh.

Band of brothers fuels heated Holy War rivalry
Oh, yes, that's right. That little religious college --- down there by Orem someplace, isn't it? --- has a home game tonight too. That's nice.

The WSU/Sac State game is now in progress. No scoring yet.
But whatever you do though, don't watch the Utah/BYU game, which will be broadcast on Comcast Channel 36 @ 7:15 p.m.
Well... then again... maybe you can watch and listen at the same time.
I have nowe doubt that Rudi won't mind.

(It's about time that WSU put together a game like this.)
Whoa. The hornets finally score. WSU still up 28-11
Tanner Hinds adds another TD. With the point after, we're now looking at a 35-10 WSU lead. Whew! First win of the season, BTW, if all goes well...

Well here goes another WSU TD, just as I was typing up the last...
WSU, 42, Sac State 10
Hey! Wake me up if the score gets close. I'm now going over to my TV, to watch the Utah/?BYU game, which is still quite a bit more interesting.
I'm calluing it for the Wildcats. Any hornets fans wan to disagree with me?
I didn't think so.
