Sports, like politics, is one of those frustrating jobs for those that have the

job.

Everyone thinks that they know sports, and everyone thinks that they know politics. The reality is that until you are on the inside, you simply don't know all that goes into it. Everyone thinks that they'd be ok in the job and that it wouldn't bug/affect them, but it grinds on you.

Not a knock on Dr. Anae in any way but those who know him

4/7/14 4:53pm

Straight forward person you will most likely meet.

in that case, maybe he was really trying to pay the BYU fanbase a compliment?

Michael Skarn

No, Robert was just telling it like it is.

Heinz57

OK, I understand ... not sure it answers the question, but I'll

To answer that question

I've heard Anae described recently

kccougar

to the contrary, it appears to me that he cares significantly about what others

Michael Skarn

Heightened sensitivity is perhaps the last thing I would label Anae with

'dweller

4/7/14 5:54pm

Well, given the comments about how critical he thinks BYU fans are

Michael Skarn

4/7/14 5:59pm

I think Bronco is more apathetic to the fan base than Anae

donnerstag

4/7/14 6:13pm

I agree with this

donnerstag

4/7/14 6:11pm

Well, I guess I disagree.

'dweller

This is true.

What I keep reading on CB is that Anae is extremely stubborn, and not...

Why are we so thin-skinned ?

ManicBlue

Yep, good summary of the question

Michael Skarn

Just making an observation about the OP .. sorry that it

ManicBlue

got under my skin? I was agreeing with you

Michael Skarn

"Dr. Anae"? Nobody refers to him as that unless they want to be antagonistic

darkcoug

I don't ever recall posting about Dr. Anae before

I think it's more that he just doesn't like whining and ignorance, combined.

'dweller

4/7/14 5:26pm

Don't get me wrong. I like to ignorantly criticize every play that doesn't

'dweller

4/7/14 5:40pm

Being critical and over-analytical makes the game more tolerable?

StantonMac

4/7/14 7:03pm

Well, what I mean is... yelling at the television can be therapeutic

Icon either is a flipping finger or a "crown" drink

Heinz57

4/7/14 5:44pm

My icon? It's a BYU football helmet facing forward.

Those stripes is what threw me off with the white background

Mostly that you are ignorant, you criticize no matter what

binghammer

of course the numerous coaching changes had no effect on his thoughts.

monsterdave

this is interesting then ... if *some* coaches were moving in the wrong directio

Michael Skarn

RE: Yep- you're right again. But if you call this an actual topic (LOL)

so, it's the position coaches who were determining the direction of the program?

Michael Skarn

4/8/14 5:58pm

Except that's not why he left

4/8/14 7:10am

say what? so he was lying?

Michael Skarn

4/8/14 8:48am

No, you are mischaracterizing why he left
