      So the BYU grad got the school he was running into the PAC 10. How's the U graduate doing?

        Not too well! I love to see an evil plan coming together.

          Lol. Judas priest, you're pathological. So you are unsurprisingly if not predictably saying that thousands more UCLA fans stayed home for the BYU game? Man, you need counseling.

            Sir, you're flailing away here unnecessarily, as my post was in response to SU's incessant shots at BYU, its sponsoring institution, etc. I have considerable respect for Utah's output and alumni.

            If I had taken as many shots at Utah's alumni in my lifetime as SU does at BYU or the Church during a single lunch break, your riposte might have been apt. I urge you to focus instead on defending why you have chosen to create an axis with a person who has such disdain for the institution to which you have consecrated your life.

              I am now consigning the post mortem on why Utah and not BYU to the Pac 10 to dead issue status. It's in the bin with historicity of the Book of Mormon. Nothing left to mull over or debate. Pretty cut and dried.

              Who will join me?

              Please, though, continue to add to this no. 1 all-time best selling Pac 10 Expansion Groundswell thread, but let's try to do so in a forward looking direction.

                  Ouch!!!! PAC pulls no punches and LAU will be s.m.a.r.t.ing for a while after that one.

                              I am wounded
                              but I am not dead
                              I will lay me down and bleed awhile
                              then I will rise up and fight again.

                              Seriously, I am not offended in the least. This is all tomfoolery as far as I am concerned.
