The day that the supposed announcement was coming, there were several board members who had skipped vacations, taken long lunches, etc so they could be online when the announcement came. That link I gave was the post making the announcement (it gave what is now a dead link to bernard4heisman.com) on a site that had tons of photoshopped pictures of bernard, fake quotes from famous athletes/coaches , etc. It all started out as a way to just mess with bernard, but it really ballooned and there were a lot of pissed off people that had been speculating what the announcement would be for the previous week.

i was a teller at the time... i took a long lunch and got in big trouble.. after i explained everything to my boss and how important BYU football she understood. sort of. I know Tim felt really bad.
