Someone else had to approve it. Sounds arrogant to me. Why give the competition

No they didn't. It's just a twitter thing he does. And...

Nobody approved anything. It's a hashtag on twitter. Mountains out of mole hills

Here is the slogan Coastcat would approve us:

No, I am for the world knowing BYU is not like other universities and doesn't

When ever you say you are "different" its going to imply that one

Bostonblue

1/31/15 10:07pm

My perspective was merely from a LDS player vs a Non-LDS player recruitment

coastcat

Interestingly, I think it was Martzen that started using the "chosenones"

Bostonblue

It's just you.

We believe in a God that cares about every fallen sparrow.

Oh then how much more will He pick us up and Dust us Off and Put us back into

That's because the poor sparrow dies

Axel, you are just making it up as you go my friend.

Bostonblue

1/31/15 1:33pm

You are implying that you aren't?

AxelDC

Like I said, we believe in a God that cares for every sparrow.

He cares about football because we care about football

Yes, what an incredibly dumb thing to worry about

It does sound a little pretentious and self-righteous, I agree

"2015 Chosen Ones" has to be religious or spiritual? uh...no. it doesn't have to

i thought Harry Potter was the Chosen One or was it Anakin Skywalker?

SpiffCoug

1/31/15 9:35am

I thought it was Neo

LonePeakCoug

1/31/15 11:43am

this is not a big deal but..... they should use different language

HarlemCoug

1/31/15 9:42am

Complete over-reaction. Why does this have to be religious to you? It's funny

I guess BYU should expand the stadium now to 144,000

I think it sounds a little weird.

You're probably only bothered because you're Mormon. Not every figure of speech
