No where in my original post was I trying to equate money to happiness. Earlier, when I posted the figures, I was primarily trying to show the discrepancy between the haves and the have nots in college football.

The one thing Boise fans always have to answer to is that no one knows if they would have been as successful as they were if they had to play a full regular season against tough competition. If you ever talk to a Boise fan, this drives them nuts. They hate that discussion with a passion. That doubt will always remain as long as they play that schedule.
