      See, that's what I'm getting at. But nevermind, I'm just going to drop this.
      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

          Don't you think most folks in the NCAA have a good giggle over what gets BYU folks in a big uproar. My heck, these kids were having a beer. Maybe we ought to do a all out investigation into BYU.

            I understand what you are saying. It takes more than one person to run the program, but when the shit hits the fan, it typically lands on the head coach.

              No doubt, but responsibility rests with the man at the top. As Harry Truman said, "The buck stops here."

              Gen. Burkhalter: "Klink, I am a staff officer."

                They are contractually obligated to lack a sense of humor. They are recruited from IRS auditors IIRC.

                    That is the brilliance of Bronco's firesides and his religion talk in the media. The only shit that would hit the fan would come from the "mullah's" and "aluf's". It is pretty much "mullah" understanding that if you are one of them, you are never responsible for anything that happens.

                    Bronco is brilliant.

                      I know. That doesn't make sense in every situation, however. But I know that is how it is applied and understood in our culture.

                        Given your love of all things mullah or aluf, Bronco must be some sort of minor diety for you.

                          I don't think Bronco has uttered a genuine word publically (may he has to family and friends, I don't know). I also think he manufactures his smiles.
                          When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

                            I flat out guarantee you Bronco is not a "mullah". He plays one for the benefit of those who are "mullahs" and possibly as a "troll" for Ute fans. A "troll" whose ability to incite is only on a level that SU and ex-ute have obtained.

                              This IS one area wherein Bronco excels.

                              Little Brother is obsessed with Bronco. Yes, they play it off as "I don't care, I just find it amusing...." But it is an obsession.

                              Bronco is a great troll, I will give him that much. He knows how to push (nay...mash) buttons.
                              Fitter. Happier. More Productive.
