BYU Football - A slow death

[Guest]

Unless you are TNT from cougarboard you really shouldn't use the 3rd person, that shtick has been claimed and in use for years, and you aren't particularly good at it, nor is it funny.

Karl Malone is the one that owns the shtick of talking in third person. You don't want Karl Malone to have to come to your house and fix your thinking, do you?

Exactly. Not surprising it take another Oregonian, to be the voice of reason.

When has BYU ever been talked about more, without being in the top 10, let alone top 25? I have come to dislike Independence, much more than I anticipated. However, to act like BYU has ever been more than an occasional blip on the national radar, is revisionist history. The only difference I see, is our old dance partner (Utah) got invited to the prom, while we are still home waiting for someone to heart-attack us - granted our old honey is still fat, ugly, and has a nasty case of acne, but that is beside the point.

To my knowledge, BYU has played in exactly one semi-big bowl (1996), and had two basketball runs, 30 years apart, that were headline news. Otherwise, we usually beat bad teams, play competitive against similar competition, and generally lose to better teams. We are no more or less relevant than we were a decade ago, and likely will be about the same a decade from now. We are who we are, why is that so hard for most to accept?

This is a heretical view in many quarters.
