They seriously asked for prayers? Sports isn't really on the eternal agenda

Just TNT's negative opinion, but 50-50 is not encouraging
TNT
8/23/16 9:56am
And yet, it is not discouraging either.

Depends on how you look at it.
Bubba Gravity

For TNT it is
TNT
8/23/16 9:58am
Or it is 50-50 whether they expand at all, and that is still the issue.

Good point

This is just what they are told the should say when asked IMO

I'm guessing that's just a standard way of saying "no comment" It doesn't mean

Wasn't there a receiver several years ago with the "50-50" nickname?

Don't matter if the cup is 1/2 empty or full. Both are heavy if you hold it long

well Jimmy, since their answer obviously means nothing, don't worry about it

My guess is that most AD employees have no idea what's going on.

U shoulda said, "I'm compliance director and thank you for complying with the 50/50 rule.

If you are under NDA, 50-50 is the ONLY answer

Totally. The fact they all were in unison makes me think that is the party line
StalwartBraveTrue
8/23/16 10:40am
Indeed
ZooBlue
8/23/16 2:41pm
Sounds like that's the party line, just say "50-50!"
mellomike
8/23/16 9:58am
It's actually the only answer that is neither negative nor positive.

They were prepped, which is why they all answered simeutaneously

This sounds made up, and that last sentence....SMH.

yes indeed, it does.

We should all put BYU to the big12 on the prayer rolls.

uhhhh, about that....
GJcougar
8/23/16 1:05pm
Did they all chuckle together after they said "50-50"?
Bubba Gravity
8/23/16 9:59am
It's gotta be at least 55-45

How can you randomly have breakfast with 4 people?

8/23/16 10:00am
Big Breakfast Menu at Denny's
TNT
8/23/16 10:02am
The university has a campus breakfast every August for all employees
Yurdue
8/23/16 10:03am
So it was planned and not random?
blueaussie
8/23/16 10:10am
He probably means he randomly sat next to them at the planned breakfast.

The faculty networking event from 9am to 12pm at the Benson Building?
kimdaddy35
8/23/16 10:11am
So they're not fasting and praying....just praying?

Now we know why we aren't in yet. Step it up, AD employees!
JackStack
8/23/16 10:07am
Did they all say "JYNX! You owe me a soda!" at the same time?

Has anyone ever simply asked, "Are you under NDA?"
Hoosier Cougar
8/23/16 10:16am
There might be a separate NDA covering the NDA though.

Oooo...NDA-ception!

When is university conference? When do they vote on changes to the HC?

Your best shot at a real answer is to take only one of them to lunch

How would you put that down on the prayer roll?

I'll put this in my prayers, right after I pray for the Broncos to win another..

Bad excuse not to pray. Sports prayers make up 62.1% of prayers on Sat/Sun.

Never met a bad excuse I couldn't get behind.

"50-50" especially in unison, sounds like a pre-planned, NDA, company line. BUT...
mvtoro
8/23/16 2:07pm
Did y'all go to BYU? They pray about everything up there. Why would this
StalwartBraveTrue
8/23/16 2:12pm
I did, and I'm even still adjunct faculty there every few semesters. And yes, you're encouraged to pray over...
