"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

Writing like Dick Harmon seems to be the natural evolution of internet expansion gurus.

Looks like Mhvers account is private. Here's what they said:Originally posted by Moliere View Post
A school that doesn't get much discussion but actually is a dark horse to get in B12 if BYU and UH don't happen: Temple.My source tells me Temple has been quietly climbing the ranks and has plead a great case.Expands footprint greatly. Bridges gap between WVU and Uconn. Offers everything Pitt has plus a football team!"Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

Interesting article
Don't underestimate what happened here, ESPN and Fox both chose the Sports Business Journal, a widely respected high end publication for industry sources, to fire a shot across the Big 12's bow on Monday morning, a time perfectly designed to attract wide media attention. This wasn't just private disagreement, this was a public threat of war designed to send a clear message to the Big 12: expand at your own risk."Be a philosopher. A man can compromise to gain a point. It has become apparent that a man can, within limits, follow his inclinations within the arms of the Church if he does so discreetly." - The Walking Drum
"And here’s what life comes down to—not how many years you live, but how many of those years are filled with bullshit that doesn’t amount to anything to satisfy the requirements of some dickhead you’ll never get the pleasure of punching in the face." – Adam Carolla

From that article..
Somebody help me out here-- how much does BYU make per game w its current ESPN deal?What would these four schools, Houston, Cincinnati, Memphis, and BYU -- sell their TV rights for on the open market right now if they were a standalone conference? Maybe $5 million total? At the absolute peak, they'd be worth $10 million a year, and that's honestly way too much given present market conditions."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch! I'll make his whole brand go under,"
