But go ahead ... feel free to explain to me how you are contributing to his salary, so I can tell you again to stop and show him who's boss. I don't put much stock in comments, but just for kicks, the first comment after the Bright blog entry is a perfect example of a complete jerk for a fan: Quote:

Coaches Circle is the fund set up by the AD to pay our coaches as close to market value as possible, but with the directive to never pay excessively....that is determined on a case by case. BYU wants to stay competitive with its salaries, but will never pay coaches on par with the top BCS counterparts. The Church will not allow that.
Bronco received a raise at the beginning of last season, as well as an extension. Rose also received a raise. Bronco makes somewhere around $800-850K now. Rose, I have no idea what he makes. Coaches Circle is funded by direct donations from fans and private donors. It was originally launched by a direct buy-in from a tiny pool of well-heeled donors and there was a minimum contribution to a member of Coaches Circle, but has expanded to accept contributions from all sides (you just are not a "member" of the Circle unless you meet minimum contribution requirements. Bronco's salary is derived 100% from Coaches Circle, not from BYU football ticket or TV revenue. The fact that you know none of this means you are not a very big fan. in which case, Bronco says good riddance to you. Also, again, staying on point to the original post, what exactly is your point? You seem to be fixated on me showing Bronco who is Boss. Why? The issue of who is Boss was never AT issue. The original post was Bronco wanting fans to prove that they are invested, not Bronco wanting fans to not boss him around. Sometimes you are very sloppy with your approach. This is one of those times. how much have you donated to Coaches Circle, btw? |

You appear to have Entitled Fan and Condescending Fan syndrome rolled into one, making you very intolerable. Quote:
EDIT: I just realized you're referring to the entire "Fully Invested" campaign, and not some recent quote. What exactly do you find wrong with a coach asking fans to step up their commitment to the program? |

I don't get Bronco's or Bright's comments at all in regards to this matter. It seems as though they are saying the opposite of what you are. We're not fully invested so we're not entitled to booing I think. But what I think they really mean is that if we were fully invested then we wouldn't boo at all. |

Bronco shouldn't be questioning the investment of commitment of the fans when his very job is paid by the fans. Since you are relatively clueless as to how D-1 football programs operate financially, I can tell you that a 100% fan subsidy for a coaches salary is almost unheard of. Of all the things Bronco can complain about, fans being "invested" in the program is the worst one. |

But I don't think that grants someone the right to be a jerk, especially when in truth, your contribution is very small and only indirectly relates to said performance. |
So you say some things yes, some things no.
What things do you think are entitled and what things are proscribed? Note that there is no right or wrong answer here, just curious as to what glasses you are wearing when you say these things. |
Here is where I get my right to boo:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. Seriously, what is the big deal about booing? If there is a better way of immediately expressing my desire for the coach to reconsider his decision to be a pussy and kick a field goal instead of going for the win against B.C., I am open to it. What is it? |
BYU fans are a bunch of pussies, and this thread proves it.
