    What always amazes me about that scene is that if you watch the whole scene, it is all taken in one single shot.

    I wonder how many times it took for them to get it right without someone busting up laughing in the background.

      The problem with Whits quotes is that he was stating them as fact and it was way to easy to poke holes in his argument.
      See, I told you BYU fans held on to things said by KW and had a problem with them.

        They're obsessed. So sad.

          And to bring things full circle, Bronco's goal of a NC was also listed as third on his list.

            It was the "quest" slogan and the associated t-shirts that will be dogging him for a while. Those weren't about the conference championship.

              You are right, you can't win eternal life with a conference championship. It takes enduring to the end of an entire life. I have some friends that could stop by your house and teach you about this wonderful plan. PM me your address!

                I saw a "Quest" shirt while I was at Sprinkler World on Saturday getting some parts to fix a sprinkler pipe. I chuckled as I was walking past the guy. He gave me an odd look probably wondering what I was laughing at but I just went along my way.

                  I've seen that shirt, too. Agreed, it looked stupid

                    That wasn't the one I was talking about. I will agree that it looks stupid but since the red version actually speaks the truth of what actually took place that year, you have to give that one the benefit of the doubt.

                      That guy in the sprinkler store sounds like a major asshole. Thanks from all of us for putting him in his place.
                      Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                        What if he was wearing it ironically and thereby made the joke be on you?

                            It could have been. Boy do I feel sheepish now.

                              Man, when you fall, you fall hard. It's all part of being a Ute fan I suppose.
