      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."

        Around here if I wanted to make everyone think I was I was a Very Important Person I could just use my brain and lie about "sources".

          Easy there. You are the last person here that should be mocking someone's sports-related predictions.

            I have plenty of accurate sports predictions, including the Sug. Regardless, my conference alignment predicitons have been aces. The easy ones to predict are Texas and BYU not to the Pac 12.

            I think that if you review my exchanges with the Fabulous Freak Brothers you will see that I have not been the agressor and I have been the one showing self-restraint. They go nuts every time I say Jesus will come on the clouds of heaven before the Pac 12 ever admits BYU (whether because of rataional self-interest or on bare principle). As you know, I was probably the first person in the world to say this, many years ago, around the dawn of the Internet (again, I had no sources other than my brain).

                  We have already covered this. Your predictions are so predictable we could write a ten-line Python script to do the same job. There is nothing insightful or analytical about it. You blithely ignore your misses and crow about your hits ad nauseum. Hell, you don't even watch your team most of the time. You aren't fooling anybody.

                      It never ceases to surprise me as to how completely classless you are especially given your family, who are some of the finest people I know

                      You're the Billy Carter of your family, for sure

                            Yeah, SU is loved here for what he is, not who he is. Pretty much everyone who's been around for awhile likes him once they learn when he's being serious and when he's kidding.

                            Viking, take some cues from people on the site that you do esteem. SU is good people, in spite of his poor tastes in classical music.

                                look, you can see much of what happens here as like fencing, but instead of foils we have words. it's a wonderful meritocracy that way. you win or lose strictly based on your wits and ability to artfully express yourself. no one cares how much money you make, how pretty or ugly you are, etc. it's about how well you express yourself and how well you think. Viking is not very adroit with the foil, so he picks up a rock and throws it. he can call me billy carter all he wants, but as soon as he picks up the rock he loses, never mind that he sends it sailing into the trees. the irony is i expose him as the foolish windbag that he is and he calls me billy carter (he doesn't know what the Trojan Horse was, so he probably doesn't get irony either).
