    • Oh dear Solon, you're spending way too much time over there.

      Sounding more and more like LA predicting BYU's ultimate demise.

      I'm pretty sure that the Native-American Lamanites win out by the end of the story, their rivals killed by the hundreds-of-thousands, the cities of their rivals conquered, the civilization of their rivals ground into dust, with only an obscure, unprovenanced record written in an otherwise unattested language to remind a mostly indifferent world that the Nephites once contended for & won Heisman Trophies & National Championships.

      Like the Junkers, the Etruscans, the Blefuscudians, Roy Hobbs, and Army Football, the true tragedy emerges when only the historians and the elderly remember how great you used to be.

      As in all Tragedies, the byu's Destiny is inescapable and ineluctable and horrifying to the audience (with a cathartic relief that we onlookers won't suffer a similar fate).

      The march to antiquarian obscurity is cruel indeed.

      For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

      Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                Unfortunately that is well done.

                Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

                    Sorry fellas. It's Rivalry Week.

                    Unsurprisingly, MBN didn't offer any context. That is my interpretation of the Jim McMahon-as-Nephi Photoshop job. I am just taking the idea to its logical conclusion.

                    I'm not two-faced, CJ. I am respectful.
