BTW, my PED stat was developed after those particular wars were being waged.
I don't know. I just remember I was kicking your ass for a while and then all of a sudden I was kicked off Cougarboard.

*joking* it's all good, indy.

Those passionate fans are the ones that enable you to make $1M coaching a SPORT. You are living the dream, and it's because of those passionate fans. Embrace them. Validate them for being passionate.
Yeah! Embrace those jerks!

I really don't know where you come up with crap like this.

You're getting paid 20 times the median income for the area. You talk about Hawaii surf vacations in the same talk you complain about booing. He can handle it. If you take out all the fans that boo or voice displeasure or complain on internet boards or piss and moan at the water cooler, you'd be left with La Tech if that. If he can't handle those fans, go back to little time sports.

Admit it, you love it when Bronco talks about worthiness.

P.S. Tex, Bronco called out "58,000" fans who "booed me my first game". Are you really calling every BYU season ticket holder and student that was at that game jerks? Are you calling the 10,000 fans who collectively groaned when Reed was called for his third penalty in a half, who Bronco interpeted as booing, jerks? Did you groan to yourself when you saw Reed do that? Are you calling yourself a jerk?

The HC is an important part of the BYU experience, but it doesn't supercede wins except in extreme cases.

I doubt Bronco thought each and every fan was booing, but I'm just reaching here. I think he was trying to make a point, which you are valiantly trying to pretend you don't get.

Crapping on someone <> 10K fans collectively groaning when Reed gets called for third penalty in a half.

Fine. We'll make a "collective groan" exception clause in the General Handbook of Good Manners.

There are ample enough examples of fans actually actively booing their own players and/or their own coach, and plenty of them proud to pronounce their "right" to do so. And it's stupid.

Jay, what's your problem with a coach that sticks up for a player that gets booed? Does Bronco's complaint strike too close to home for you or something?
