any examples?

That statement is 100% factual and not really a dig at BYU.

The comparison to Utah is dumb

and even after their expansion, they'll still have a smaller stadium

Why let little things like "facts" and "reality" get in the way?....

No kiddings. Makes it sound like it's the same size.

Tell me how it is pertinent to the story, especially as a lead in.

jdub

My only regret in your highlighting this

cougarmanguy

7/16/19 7:48am

True, but at least I didn't link it.

jdub

7/16/19 7:51am

Good job on that indeed

Pretorian

Read the whole article. The first two paragraphs were digs at BYU.

I'm gonna just take you at your word.

whirl

It is? I’m on CB more than I should be and I don’t recall expansion being a hot

gwalker

7/16/19 8:03am

That is exactly what Drew said. BYU fans are not clamoring for expansion.

Tokolosh

7/16/19 8:16am

But was Jay's intro was relevant to the story about BYU?

jdub

7/16/19 8:18am

As a hook to draw in more readers? Maybe.

Tokolosh

7/16/19 8:22am

You might feel different if it were an article about the RES expansion and it

SwampyCoug

7/16/19 8:31am

I likely wouldn't feel differently. And I'd expect a comparison to other stadiums in the state, it is meaningful.

Tokolosh

7/16/19 8:33am

Not in the intro. That's not what you lead with.

jdub

7/16/19 8:36am

Ah. I missed the word “few.”

gwalker

7/16/19 8:59am

Go back a decade or more and LES expansion was a popular

lightmann

7/16/19 9:01am

The majority of yewt fans are classless band-wagoners who are happy to cheer for

Santos L. Halper

The only thing worse than Jay’s articles are his talks in sacrament meeting!

Odysseus

7/16/19 7:24am

The rest of the article is positive and complimentary.

Everyman

7/16/19 7:41am

Doesn't fit the narrative.

ag4cougs

7/16/19 7:42am

that misses the point.

jdub

7/16/19 7:56am

Do you read all BYU content produced by the Trib?

ag4cougs

7/16/19 8:09am

No, I don't. I've read too much garbage from them in the past that it's not

jdub

7/16/19 8:15am

You seemed pretty confident EVERY article had digs in it.

ag4cougs

7/16/19 8:20am

Nah, but too many do, and that's the point.

jdub

7/16/19 8:26am

Drew failed to provide the context behind the comparison. That I agree with.

ag4cougs

7/16/19 8:42am

It's not "part of a larger story". That's bullcrap.

jdub

7/16/19 8:56am

Don't let the irony escape you.

ag4cougs

7/16/19 9:07am

False statement? That's funny. Unless you can prove my OPINION

jdub

7/16/19 9:18am

Guy, you proved yourself wrong.

ag4cougs

7/16/19 9:25am

You keep using that word...

jdub

7/16/19 9:40am

Who disputed #3? The Trib is failing.

ag4cougs

7/16/19 9:50am

I assumed, when above you claimed I made false statements, that you must be

jdub

7/16/19 10:02am

The Trib is not a good paper. The Trib's BYU sports content is fine.

ag4cougs

7/16/19 10:28am

I wasn't referring to op-eds written by crazies. I was referring to staff.

jdub

7/16/19 10:51am

I like Fletcher Stack. Drew and Monson are church-going guys
