Not sure I am outraged by his point. So we learn more from our loses than from a win. The losses hurt more, but can be better to grow from going forward.

Bronco: "To me, any loss has more value than a win."

Bronoc

That is not a winning quote in my opinion.

Maybe good for fine young men but that's not what the fan base wants to hear

He's stating the obvious. He just left out a word.

You have to point it out to people who intentionally act dumber than they are

I have to disagree with you.

I love hearing about how the 1-2 starts "shaped" the team.

3-6 in first road game of the season...

I bet players are less humble after a victory then a loss

So let's lose the fall scrimmage and learn from that from now on

applies in business as well

Can you at least put in the entire paragraph so people can see context.

BarraCouga

8/28/14 1:21pm

can you at least avoid whining about light mocking of bronco in one thread?

El Joffrey

8/28/14 1:26pm

maybe that's why he considered last season a success

We lost enough the last 4 years to be brilliant now

1-2 to start the season sounds familiar

Bluedomination

8/28/14 1:36pm

I sure hope that if his favorite color is green that he never lets us know.

Belboz

8/28/14 1:47pm

Well, it explains a lot of his coaching moves against Utah.

lilpenny

8/28/14 2:16pm

ya. like when he turned the ball over 7 times in one game. bad move.

monetary value? TH needs to redo that bonus structure

Yakov

Bronco is still a weird duck

SaintGeorgeYFan

8/28/14 3:32pm

This. I love Bronco but he says and does the weirdest crap!

pistol12

8/28/14 10:22pm

Why would anyone but a politician

Oldguy

8/28/14 4:39pm

It's true. I'd take a loss over a win any day.

Jkampana

8/28/14 4:45pm

And he wonders why they lose to the tougher teams.

TheDean

8/28/14 5:12pm

Yah....

PolarisPrime

8/28/14 5:16pm

Most of them have? Provide links.

messi

8/28/14 5:22pm

I've never heard a coach say that.

SaintGeorgeYFan

8/28/14 7:08pm

You've never heard a coach say that losses are great teaching opportunities?

newey-west

8/28/14 7:10pm

I don't think anybody disagrees with that.

messi

8/28/14 7:24pm

I guess I don't understand the problem then...

newey-west

8/28/14 7:26pm

Well, that's the problem. You are guessing that he meant

messi

8/28/14 7:29pm

I'm not guessing. This is what he meant. He simply dropped a word.

newey-west

8/28/14 7:33pm

Is that you, Bronco? Don't you have a game to prepare for?

messi

8/28/14 8:26pm

Read the article or listen to the audio. The message is clear.

newey-west

8/28/14 9:40pm

that's not what the quote reads. huge diff. imo

SaintGeorgeYFan

8/28/14 11:29pm

Really?

PolarisPrime

8/28/14 11:32pm

did I stttutter?

SaintGeorgeYFan

8/29/14 6:00pm

No.

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 10:15pm

I gave my opinion but you just berated me.

seanyc17

8/29/14 10:21pm

I just re-read your posts.

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 10:31pm

I states multiple opinions more than once.

seanyc17

8/29/14 10:39pm

My bad - I thought you were St George Fan

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 10:45pm

I've never heard any other coach say that either. Source?

eddog

8/28/14 7:16pm

I am not going to bother finding a source for something

PolarisPrime

8/28/14 9:28pm

You're a funny guy.

eddog

8/28/14 9:42pm

UhHu.....

PolarisPrime

8/28/14 10:18pm

You know, forget what I said. You obviously need help.

PolarisPrime

8/28/14 10:43pm

The self proclaimed victory! Well done! The guy who "won" the argument about

seanyc17

8/29/14 1:05am

You sarcasm aside you are replying to the wrong post

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 1:14am

Weak doubling down. At this point, you're not even making an argument

macaroni

8/29/14 7:24am

You sure like to insult people when they don't agree with you don't you?

eddog

8/29/14 4:34pm

Sometimes my sarcasm gets the best of me...

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 4:42pm

I don't think he was saying that he prefers to lose.

eddog

8/29/14 4:49pm

Personally I loved Crowtons interviews

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 4:55pm

Another crazy Broncoism. He needs a press secretary desperately

icecougar

8/28/14 6:38pm

That's why he's been losing more than he ought to the last several years

byutx

8/28/14 9:33pm

Why does everyone freak out over coach speak?

macaroni

8/28/14 10:01pm

Because bronco has his own idiosyncrasies

run26

8/28/14 10:26pm

Again...why do people care about coach speak? It's COACH SPEAK! It's BS.

macaroni

8/28/14 10:38pm

Maybe it's because other coaches don't say the same weird crap as our coach?

seanyc17

8/28/14 11:49pm

Right.....

PolarisPrime

8/28/14 11:51pm

You're totally right, Bronco isn't odd at all. He's totally normal.

seanyc17

8/29/14 12:04am

You have a keen eye for the near obvious.

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 12:22am

For the record

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 12:39am

I'm guessing that you don't watch much football or listen to what coaches say?

macaroni

8/28/14 11:57pm

You got me. Legendary coaches giving inspirational quotes is totally the same

seanyc17

8/29/14 12:18am

Yes, I did get you.

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 12:25am

And what point is that? That I think Bronco said something weird?

seanyc17

8/29/14 12:39am

No, but you are wrong in that.

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 12:41am

Yep. You're right. You can't have it both ways

macaroni

8/29/14 7:22am

They really don't freak about the coach speak...

BarraCouga

8/29/14 8:04am

Great quotes. You must have searched all night for them

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 12:37pm

Nah...Google makes things easy.

BarraCouga

8/29/14 12:42pm

There are certain posters that after they realize they have lost the point

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 1:56pm

Did he say that? Come on Bronco

Harrison0Yfan

8/28/14 10:52pm

Then why does it seem like he doesn't learn from losses?

CarolinaCoug

8/28/14 11:38pm

Mezmerizing.

PolarisPrime

8/28/14 11:51pm

Clearly you're going to support Bronco no matter what he says or does.

seanyc17

8/29/14 12:06am

If he actually said something strange I would comment on it.

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 12:24am

You're Christlike example is inspiring. I'll call everyone I disagree with

seanyc17

8/29/14 12:44am

I didn't call you incredibly stupid - you took that label yourself

PolarisPrime

8/29/14 12:53am

kind of like how CC, messi and a few other whiners will whine no matter what?
