  1. Yeah maybe you are right. We're no fun at beer parties.
  2. You're right. Pac won't add BYU because of their intolerance and snobbery (even though many of BYU's grad schools outrank most of the Pac's and BYU incoming GPA and test scores are equal to or higher than most of the Pac). But most of the Pac schools are happy to schedule us because we load their stadiums up with fans and they happy to cash those checks. We play 4 of the Pac teams this year.
  3. BYU should be invited to a power conference, just for the Boney Fuller memes / vids: https://www.instagram.com/p/BocZlh3gx8K/
  4. Thanks for bringing back happy memories. Watched this from my hotel room on day two of the honeymoon.
  5. Been waiting almost 20 years for this. Ucla apparel with UA and adidas has been trash. Finally will be able to get some decent gear.
  6. Glad we could help you hit rock bottom so you could rise again. We got Manny Diaz fired for you.
  7. Congrats UW on the win. You guys played lights out. QB seems pretty legit and was throwin darts. That TD toss to the corner of the endzone was crazy. Defense is super stout. OL is beastly. Great coach. Enjoy.
  8. What are you talking about pops? Who thinks that? Do you have an example? We just like watching our main rival lose and even better that it's to a team we beat. Schadenfreude. I don't think that's a foreign concept.
  9. Oxford University Press, the publisher, didn't think it's a joke.
  10. I'm not wasting my time in a sports board arguing with a misinformed know-it-all. You can read this book if you want an unflinching, fair look at the matter.
  11. Haha Bernard just got trucked for that TD
  12. I've done nothing but be respectful and talk sports in here, champ. So easily triggered. Wow.
  13. To paraphrase Kissinger, it's a pity that they both can't lose.
  14. Horrible tragedy that should not have happened. But Brigham Young didn't order it; locals did. The historical evidence suggesting the possibility that BY ordered it is very weak and there is lots of evidence that he didn't. But you already hate Mormons, so you believe the worst. Why is religious history even in a sports forum? Still traumatized by the Taysom Hill Massacres? Focus on the thread topic, dude.
  15. UCLA was also set to be the next Jordan branded school after the adidas contract expired. Deal was near final and then Under Armour offered more money and UCLA opted for UA. Just another example of dumb decision-making at UCLA. I say this as someone who went to UCLA for grad school, so I care. I'm stilled vexed about it.
  16. It's not as bad as you think. The colored section is cropped from that photo.
  17. And Leach was heavily influenced by LaVell Edwards and BYU. Leach acknowledges that a lot of the Air Raid elements came from his time at BYU. "We had quite a few people come and visit, and hang around and observe, and that's how a lot of that got started with ... Mike Leach and other guys," Edwards said. "We shared a lot of information in those days." Leach said Edwards is "easily one of the greatest coaches that has ever coached. And I think that's indisputable." He said he would hang out at BYU spring practices with offensive line coach Roger French, Norm Chow and Edwards and soak up all the knowledge he could get. "They were throwing the ball all over the place," Leach said. "It influenced me directly, specifically. It is the core of a lot of things we do offensively, the philosophy of attacking the whole field, and then you take it a step further..."
