subset that you felt you could hit it; but, once again, please elaborate how what you provided "shattered the lie"

You said "One verifiable fact is that Bronco goes out of his way to welcome former players back (you didn't prove that, please provide some verifiable link; how far does he go out of his way? what does that even mean?) and has a alumni meeting every year before the season starts (how many attend? is this the only outreach?). He also has a former player lead the team and carry the game flag onto the field every game (which player(s)? how many former players participate relative to the total number of former players?)."

See what happens when you confidently assert you've proven somethng, don't prove it, and THEN at the same time belittle those who do the same thing as being arrogant?

That's what you call ironic.

Whether Buck is full of it and just has an ax to grind or is actually spot on, I know not; I do know, however, for certain that you certainly have shed no light on the answer to that question.
