When I was looking at the point spread this morning it was P/K. Is that pic em. Anyway, now it is 11. Big boys aren't as worried about Davies being gone as I.

I'd consider you a completely shitty parent if I didn't think you were lying.Originally posted by jay santos View PostMy two oldest boys were fighting last night over who got to go this game. This morning I said screw it and sold my tickets. Maybe I'll recover by the Wyoming game. I don't even know if i can watch on TV. I seriously want to cry.

Jay, this is where we diverge.Originally posted by jay santos View PostMy two oldest boys were fighting last night over who got to go this game. This morning I said screw it and sold my tickets. Maybe I'll recover by the Wyoming game. I don't even know if i can watch on TV. I seriously want to cry.

I wore my BYU blazer to work today. I put the flags on my car. I'm leaving early and going to support the players that are able to play. I may not like the Honor Code and sometimes I don't even like the University but I love the student athletes at BYU and they deserve my support now more than ever.

Honest and passionate folks can strongly disagree regarding spiritual matters, so it's imperative that we not allow such considerations to infringe on the real happiness of real people.

I believe religion has much inherent good and has born many good fruits.

This is very interesting. I felt very much like Jay last night, even waking in the middle of the night with a sick feeling in the pit of my gut, wishing it was all a bad dream. But after 24 hours of reflection, I'm once again all in. For better or worse (and certainly mostly better), this is BYU. I'm all in.Originally posted by KillerDog View PostJay, this is where we diverge.

Why should we mourn or think our lot is hard?
'Tis not so; all is right.
Why should we think to earn a great reward
If we now shun the fight?
Gird up your loins; fresh courage take.
Our backcourt will never us forsake;
And soon we'll have this tale to tell-
Mountain West Conference Champs.

I am still stuck in anger mode. I skipped over denial."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

I'm a die hard. I doubt there are more than a 100 people who have attended more home FB and BB games the last ten years. I've missed maybe one BB game every other year and no home FB games.Originally posted by KillerDog View PostJay, this is where we diverge.

I very nearly threw in the towel on the 2010 FB season over the Harvey incident. I vowed to sell my tickets and boycott the season, but then I gave in. These things really affect me.
I'll be back Saturday. But I'm pissed and I'm in mourning today and this is the only way I can protest.

Props to you for your support, thick and thin, of the cougars. However, as a father I can honestly tell you, the only one who will remember your "mourning" in years to come is your boys. Wear black, yell at Cecil, heck stay on the concourse, but let your son witness the once in a generation gift that is Jimmer Fredette.Originally posted by jay santos View PostI'm a die hard.

Here's the thing Jay, if you stand by the monkey cage at the zoo and the moneys throw monkey-poo at you, can you be angry at the monkey? I don't think so. It is in the monkey's nature to throw poo and there is a sign saying "Monkeys may throw feces." Don't be angry at the monkey because you know it will be a monkey. At the same time, if you like to see the monkeys, don't avoid the monkeys because they throw poo. It is the nature of monkeys to throw poo. Just stand by the cage, watch the effin' monkeys, and dodge the poo as best as you can.Originally posted by jay santos View PostI'm a die hard.

If it were Utah basketball, would the metaphor be dogs eating their feces?

Is there a link for the game?
I admit that aside from Jimmer, Davies was the least dispensable, but I still think with this team there is hope.
That being said, I would like to ask for a link to watch the mtn., please.
