      Rock has an article telling BYU fans not to overreact to the win. Act like you've been there.

      Where do these guys come up with this stuff. We shouldn't have scheduled Oklahoma. They will crush us. Don't act like it is a big deal when we win.

        My favorite example of idiocy in journalism is still when Gordon Monson wrote a column discouraging Urban Meyer to use Alex Smith to run the Utah offense because it was a risk to Smith's health. Monson was certain that running as much as he did, Smith would suffer a season ending injury.

          Still my favorite Monson one is saying Michelle Wie was not only going to make a PGA cut, she would win a PGA event.

            Who gives a flying crap if Robinson said scheduling Oklahoma was a mistake???? So what? He doesn't have any pull in the BYU athletic department. Why must the fanbase be a bunch of a-holes and spam Robinson about it, now that we somehow managed to win the game?

                We get to be a-holes to those who are a-holes to us. Hammurabi's Code of a-holes.
                Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                      Let me guess like Dick Harmon, Robinson is a big fan of Pass efficiency Differential?

                        Tit for tat. It isn't like you don't know anything about that.

                          I'm not sure Dick Harmon is a fan of PED and I didn't know Robinson still wrote sports columns. Back in the day when Robinson did write sports columns, he never struck me as a provocateur like Monson is.

                            Yep. Robinson is boring as hell.

                              What. Nobody liked my email to him??

                              I thought it was somewhat clever and he would get a good chuckle out of it...
