Exactly. Many of your fellow BYU fans have mastered it. Even after wins.

Then again, perhaps the NCAA is out to get BYU.

There are some who are still convinced that BYU would have beaten UCLA but for the Pac 10 refs.

Unfortunately, those same Pac 10 refs didnt help much when Notre Dame came into town...

I'm not sure which conference hires more inept officials - PAC 10 or MWC.

There are a few over on Jefe's board who still complain about a PI call in the Cotton Bowl win against KSU.

You could probably start a riot there if you started a thread that it was a good call.

No doubt about it. We're human too.

Yep. It seems that it's human nature to whine.
