Which means he's a moron. Remove the fans and what do you have left?

Mike, I think if you had a coach who loved his team and the people who put him in his privileged place and was a true professional and took your team to dizzying heights you wouldn't disdain the game so much either.

how can you possibly call such an obvious lazy charlatan a wize soul?

I don't but it's usually something festive for football fans to congregate around. It shows how much disdain Bronco has for fans.

I can see him on his lofty pillar, "Friends, Romans, Fans, get the hell away from me."

I still say it's better than returning to the Gary Crowton era of BYU football.

We have people who don't even care about the spring game complaining it won't be held this year. What a fan base.

It's fans like you that make it easy to disdain.

I agree. BYU should discourage its fanbase, ignore it, condescend to it, and drive it into oblivion. That way, when the Church disbands altheltics, nobody will be around to care. It's a brilliant strategy.

If the fanbase is a bunch of whiny-ass pansies, then maybe it's for the best.

So fans, who by definition are somewhat fanatical, else why would they contribute, should only behave as on their Sunday best?

Indy, I can see why actuaries are such passionate people. I can see them going hysterical over reduced risk factors. Pass me the Nodoze.

By my count, we disbanded Ricks, church athletics beyond the stake, and now you advocate disbanding BYU athletics because you find fans not to your liking.

Is there too much variety in Church hymns? Should we do away with music? Members don't sing very well, so let's start there.
