I have histrionics aversion. Whether I supported troops in

Vietnam or Iraq, I never could condone burning the flag as appropriate, let alone patriotic. Like it or not, some of you effectively burn the BYU flag after the games we lose as you rend your clothes. Overwrought and under thought, in my opinion. Best let it settle first...

It's funny that they don't want to argue with the fellow fans?

Kind of a funny post, you're usually more hostile to the "new coach" crowd

"Homers" like BYU no matter what. True fans. Fair weather fans are volatile.

Liking BYU =/= Liking the Coach

Liking "the Coach" =/= Loving "Bronco", I support BYU's coach, who at the moment

There are lots of older fans like you that will settle for less and that's ok.

Settle for less? Haha! BYU has been one of the great programs over the last 40

Yup, so I'm curious why byutx thinks it's funny? Wait, no I'm not...I understand

You don't have to like Bronco, but show a little faith in the team.

Oh I'll watch the game. And then after we lose I'll post about how ticked I am
