    Yes: "We here at BYU are excited to announce that we will accept a invitation for full athletic membership into the Big 12 Conference. Press conference tomorrow. Good day".


    Oh wait, that's what I wanted, not expected.

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

              Mormons are great at this: they could have ended up in San Francisco but decided somehow that Salt Lake was "the place". Whoops. Oh yeah, a little thing called the gold rush happened a short two years later!

              I hate BYU

              Of course, this is the greatest bluff ever.

                And they want people to stop calling until they make a decision.
                One of the grandest benefits of the enlightenment was the realization that our moral sense must be based on the welfare of living individuals, not on their immortal souls. Honest and passionate folks can strongly disagree regarding spiritual matters, so it's imperative that we not allow such considerations to infringe on the real happiness of real people.

                  Bah. I was more referencing the fact that when actual changes are made, they are known in advance of the press conference/statement.

                      The press will have press availability to the coaches and players - just as previously posted. Where did you get the idea this was related to any statement?

                        Very good statement. The statement is absolutely correct, this has been a real distraction for the football team and BYU. This statement should rectify that and everyone can now focus on the games at hand. Everyone should feel much better now.

                          We're going to release a distracting statement saying we're not going to comment because doing so would be too distracting. Got it

                              The statement should have just said "To all LDS men: go back to work and quit endangering your jobs by spending all day on stupid message boards and twitter."
