BYU fans have gotten a great education on Bronco in the last decade.

He made a deliberate, backhanded jab at the fans who left. He said it on purpose and he said it for a reason.

Bronco is prideful and arrogant. It is what it is

Bronco has his issues. I don't think arrogance is one.

Okay, I'll agree with you that the emphasized phrase does not mean

Are people really trying to defend this?

I am (and I ain't "people"! ). I think you're making WAY too much out of

ByuMba90

10/20/14 10:14am

You give Bronco far too little credit for his media skills.

shoganai

10/20/14 10:16am

And the majority of CB have constantly complained about his crappy PR

It was a passive/aggressive way of saying 'those fans who left early stink'

Why the thumbs down? Do those two think Bronco is above criticism?

I can only guess for them, but I think the criticism of the fans is overblown...
