Default Bronco and booing

Indy and Tex, please see this thread.

Bronco's complaining about this louder and more frequently. See the responses in this thread. I'm not the only one that thinks Bronco's being over-the-top on this issue.

I agree with you. Booing a 4th down decision to punt etc. is absolutely NOT the same thing as "booing the head coach who has won 15 home games in a row."

Bronco needs to lighten up on this issue. A few boos about certain decisions in the game just shows the fans are into the game, not that they want him fired.

There's room enough for everyone to be wrong. Booing is not something you do for any little disagreement with a coach, especially when he has won 30 out of the last 35 games.

Having said that, Bronco is obviously a little thin-skinned about this, and would be better off just keeping it to himself.

Yeah, booing is part of sports. Fans are a rabid band of non-rational people in the middle of a high emotion game, what do you expect them to do? Golf clap?

Be prepared to hear more about it, lots of boo birds today when he elected to kick a field goal on 4th down inside the 2.

"I wasn't booing the man; only the decision"? A distinction only an attorney could love.

Remind me again, how much did we lose to SDSU by?

One thing is for sure, and that is that Jay Santos is waaaayyyyy too thin-skinned about what Bronco does or doesn't think about booing.

Every fanbase boos when coaches don't go for it on 4th around midfield or near the goal line. Bronco and some self righteous BYU fans need some perspective on the matter.
