      Same. But the problem is half these "news sources" are RTing this garbage.

        Right. Which is why I think the Big East will backfill with the best teams they can find to continue the BCS gravy train as long as they can. Like I said above the only thing I think threatens the survival of Big East football is the ACC going to 16.

              Viking of course. He is a big deal down in Tejas and pulled some strings.

                    Their website says they're headquartered at the SLC airport, and they're an aircraft charter & management company. Can't tell much beyond that. After the stop in Provo, they're making the 8 minute hop back to SLC tonight.

                      I am guessing viking was referring to Jesus.

                        Second thing BYU needs to do after getting that big paycheck from Big 12 membership is buy its own private jet. The first thing? Tithing, of course.

                        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."

                          Yes, well, I believe Viking has made several promises in connection to BYU to the Big 12 that he will need to make good on.

                            I thought he didn't believe in Jesus anymore. I guess the big man up stairs will do anything to find the lost sheep.

                              Anybody with enough money can charter one of their aircraft and crews.

                              They have nice stuff though. Always well taken care of. First class hangar too.

                              Could mean something relevant to the discussion, but just as likely... not.
