That's a good approach. It's similar to my approach - that it's 3-4 hours of relief from my dismal existence.

Whoa. How can a life that includes Bob and Doug be dismal?

Kyle has made some PR missteps, especially the first couple of years, but Bronco comes out with some odd quotes, like the "blessed to have been humbled", remark, to go along with Max Hall's quote before the season started, "We're a great team, all we have to do is be humble". But whoever came up with the "Quest for Perfection" slogan & line of apparel wasn't thinking rationally, had to be on [insert your painkiller of choice here]. |

My life is not what it seems.
Bob and Doug offer me hope.

Counting chickens . . .
is a very bad idea with this rivalry game, especially when the teams are so evenly matched. I think Utah has the edge, but I am not allowing myself to get very confident about this one. If we win I'll have plenty of time to enjoy the victory (and I will, big-time!).
OTOH, if we lose, that will be painful enough without making it worse by bragging up a storm even before the kickoff. Anyone who's followed this rivalry for even the last 10 years knows that there's no sure thing. BYU is a good team and will be motivated. I'll start enjoying a win when the clock runs out and Utah is still ahead. Not until then!
