Fans are being frontrunners. And i get it.

I have basically tapped out on pro sports myself. Used to go to Jazz games, and haven't been in about 10 years. Its not a priority.

BYU Football is my sports fan priority. I tapped out on everything else but it, and hoops a little. That's it.

For guys quitting, I wonder what they quit to because there has to be something. We're dudes. We love competitive sports. We just do.

We're very similar. I started being a fan my freshman year at BYU in 1985

I think TH is doing everything he can at getting BYU into the P5.

We got blown out by USU at home, lost to UNR at home, and got beat by a lousy

2 or 3 plays and an unfortunate injury from likely 11-2 is not hopeless...

Nothing like a little revisionist history to "prove" your point.

What the crap is revisionist? Those results are facts.

For the record, I'm in no way even considering switching. Not ever going to

Loving BYU is like being in an abusive relationship.

BYU is fighting. Like crazy.

Why don't you like Bronco?

You go first.

How is BYU fighting beyond any other college football program?

No need to be inflammatory.

It's called perspective, maybe a little wisdom with age. Nobody to blame, it's

For me, it's 100% Bronco.

I'm with P-townCoug = I just can't do Bronco anymore! The Howell/Nelson lovefest

For me it's Bronco and not being able to beat Utah.
