      Utah picked up a lot of points for skiing. Congrats to them on that.

        I'm sure once men's volleyball finishes up that BYU's ranking will improve.

          That's a great sport.

              And no, that is not a great sport. Let's be honest JL.

                I was just reading this morning that BYU mens volleyball averages 3600 fans per game. They pack the Smith Fieldhouse. Students wait in line to get good seats.

                How many people do you suppose go watch a ski meet? Maybe 50?

                  If this is what you are going to use to justify Men's Volleyball as a "great" sport I will just stop right now.

                      Volleyball is quite possibly a top 5 sport worldwide. I doubt skiing places anywhere near the top 20.
                      "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

                        Soccer > American football. Good point.

                          Anyone who ever talks about anything other than basketball, baseball, or football losses all right to mock Utah gymnastics fans.

                            Disagree. You're not including the creepy factor when mocking Utah gymnastics.
