Actually, I think you have to see the clip, examine Hall's body language to really appreciate what is going on there. He was not emotional. He was shit eatin' grinning like a seventeen year old kid. he puked out the words all stilted and clipped like he didn't mean them. He did it on a dare and the thrown beer comment is your first clue he was making stuff up.
It's sad and undignified, really; here's a guy who won more games than any other BYU quarterback in history, but lost all his biggest games (unless you still hold out for Oklahoma, and even then OK's Heisman quarterback was hurt and it was an weak offensive game for both sides). Those who said give him a break he's a child probably have a point. He doesn't disrespect Utah or Kyle Whittingham; on the contrary, he wishes he were where they are. He was just goofing off. Poor sad child. The saddest thing is it took this for so many BYU fans to really express admiration for him.
Yeah, that's the problem with the radio guys' take--they couldn't see the "body language".
I'm pretty sure Hall is over his intense self-loathing. SU, on the other hand...well, he's still replaying tape.
At least the Big Ten went after a big-time addition in Nebraska; the Pac-10 wanted a game so badly, it added Utah

Dan Patrick just picked up this story and lit up BYU for making Hall apologize for expressing how he really felt.
It's a proven fact those guys don't have the same mission as a university ought to have vis-a-vis these kids. A university cares about other dimensions of their character than their ability to entertain. If Max Hall were staking his whole future on his ability to do that he'd wind up outside LES toothless and begging for alms with a sign, "help out a Cougar qb vet and Ute hater."
When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

Everything I put down is at least half in jest, demonstrably. On the other hand, you are clearly the angriest fan here. For a year now you have been muttering like a deranged old man about how "lucky" Utah was last season.

It must be nice having the "I was obviously just trolling" fallback line every time you say something stupid in here.
Oh, and that's a funny way to count time. My first "Utah was lucky" comment came when we were talking about Utah-TCU.
Oh wait--my bad. You were just trolling again.

I am proposing some mitigation for Max Hall. You are so angry you can't even accept that with any grace.
You're projecting your self-loathing anger again.
I would describe my current emotion as bemusement. I'm enjoying this. You hyperanalyze a statement made after an emotional win by an immature twentysomething kid as reflective of some deeper self-loathing and envy. kc points out an uncanny resemblance to your coaching idol who can do no wrong.
Why would I be angry?

When steve young was single barbieri used to complain about him being picky, he was confused that steve couldn't find a beautiful utah woman to settle down with. He liked the salt lake city hotties.
I miss knbr bob fitzgerald was my favorite
Fitz and Brooks at noon. KNBR.com streams. You should listen to their white man nazi rage (dont tell SU, but Brooks is AA, but who's paying attention?)
