    I'd be worried for your team this Friday: you are dealing with people that have nothing to lose!
    But, they are also stupid, so there's that.
    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

    • My wife who is not much of a sports fan or fan of BYU in general (thank goodness she's not a utah fan though) was even taken aback a few years ago when the ESPN camera for a few seconds caught a glimpse of those sweet little Aggie students wearing the F-you BYU shirts, or whatever it was. I have no idea how many of those sweet kids were wearing them, relatively speaking because the camera angle was pretty tight, but it sure looked like it was quite a few rows. It was kind of fun making my cynical comments about how they are undoubtedly super good LDS kids who will get up early to go to church tomorrow along with their BYU fan friends. It's a real talent to hate BYU with a passion and still feel like you're a much holier Mormon than anyone who cheers for the Cougars at the same time. Other than LAUte, Utah fans don't even attempt that feat. As a whole fanbase only USU can pull that off.

      • Robert Francis O'Rourke doesn't want Obama's endorsement...

        Beto O'Rourke on possible endorsement from Obama: "I don't think we're interested."

        Former President Barack Obama has endorsed 11 Texas Democrats leading up to next month’s midterm elections. But none go by the popular four-letter moniker “Beto”.


        On Thursday, the three-term Democratic congressman looking to unseat incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, had a simple response to being left off the list: We’re doing fine on our own.


        “I don’t think we’re interested [in an endorsement],” Beto O’Rourke said after a town hall at a local high school.

        Robert seems like a reasonable dude.

          Cruz is a jerk. The country will be no worse off if he loses. he'll probably still win though.

                The debate on TV this week should be fun.

                      Yeah, I have yet to see a Cruz sign. I’m beginning to wonder if he just didn’t bother.

                          My Ted loving neighbors kept complaining on social media that the local far left keeps taking their signs. They need to stick a finger in their chest and give them a few choice words...



                          Ted supporters need to stop being a bunch of wimps!

                          • Why not help your neighbors hook up their sign to line voltage?

                                His enunciation of that final "Come on.... Ted" at the 0:27 mark is brutally condescending. I approve.
