What? You camp in cabin watching The Wire. That's how I roll, too!

I get to do that because people pay $16-20 a night to sleep in a tent.

BYU Cougar Club seats are not guaranteed year to year. Your donation only buys you a guaranteed slot in the draw - not a guaranteed seat location. If more people donate at a higher level than you, you get bumped down.

In order for me to move to the next club level, I would have to cough up a $10K one-time donation

Yikes, that would make it hard to continue donating. I guess it helps keep things cheaper. There isn't such a thing as a one time donation getting seats up here.

I'm digging Bronco's comments on Ziggy - i.e. that he will be used in pass rushing situations and that he's made huge progress over the summer.

There was a lot of justifiable skepticism about whether Ziggy wld amount to anything (and he still hasn't) but the facts are (a) he has the size, speed and raw physical ability (b) he's evidently shown Bronco enough improvement in terms of technique and assignments that he's ready to let him into the rotation.

He's gonna be a crowd favorite.

Yep and you have to send them $1,000 a year in addition to the price of your seats to get your seats.

I think I am justified in getting pissed off when some punk BYU student tells me to shut up when I say the home schedule needs to improve. He goes to the games subsidized by others. No wonder college students are liberals. They don't know how the real world works.

punks or not every student should go to the games for free, that's how you ensure donations from future alumni like byu71.

That is a good point. Alums like '71 donate though because they win. I was an Aggie fan, even while going to BYU. However, Lavell got it going and I jumped on the bandwaggon.

Alums like Jacob don't donate and never will.
But they deeply appreciate the subsidy.

KWhitt on Ziggy:

"When you're 6'6" and you have wingspan of 7'1" and you weigh 265 lbs and you run a 4.5 (40)...you've gotta find a place for him."

Hans Olsen on Riley nelson this morning:

"You just can't let Riley throw the ball".

Lamont Morgan has some solid voice over skills.

KWhitt on Ziggy:

Who is Ziggy? If he is a BYU football player, why is KWhitt commenting on him right now?

Even people who don't know anything about football can see that.
