@d_stevensonBYU 100. Persecution complex is real and way too prevalent. The agony for these people of hoping someone says something nice about BYU and that the world is after us is they don't must be profound.
I can't remember how many times I have asked myself why the backups aren't in and wondering if it would take a major injury to get them in sooner. Nothing prepares the backups more than playing.
The whole run up the score thing is ridiculous. The BIG 12 is getting no love regardless of margin of victory. Win the dang conference.
BYU dominated ... Really dominated ... And all the major players left healthy. Boom!
During my address this week at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., I shared that living together in peace requires goodwill among those who differ.
Knowing that we are all children of God gives us a divine vision of the worth of all others.
I pray to our Heavenly Father for His blessings upon us that we will all seek to be peacemakers.
People keep saying Trump term II is the most corrupt administration ever, so I built a model to find out if it was true.
I took the UN's definition of corruption, turned it into eight criteria and 100 points, and scored the leaders history remembers for looting their countries: Marcos, Suharto, Mobutu, Abacha, Obiang, Putin.
Then I put every president since Eisenhower on the same scale, both parties, with every exoneration counted right alongside the convictions.
Nixon scored 41 and no other American President scored over a 25.
Trump's second term scored a 91, which ties him with Suharto and Mobutu and puts him above Marcos and Abacha.
So he is not only the most corrupt president in American history. At this pace he finishes his term level with the most corrupt rulers of the last hundred years.
PSA: don't come in my comments arguing about the results if you haven't read the full article, because ignorance is a choice.

@schadjoe WNBA officiating is the worst of any 'major' professional sport. Their officials also walk around like they own the place. Their arrogance is profitable unearned. I think if you run the best high school refs and inserted them into the W the game would be much better
Cougs making more money than ever, with a full share and you got administrators being dumb, like administrators often are. AJ proved BYU can be an everyday news team, which is what the COUGS want from both a sports and church perspective.
Kalani got to see behind the curtain at a legit national contender. Big time program. Can't hide that genie. Ride or die folks. Kalani is what BYU needs, there is no one who fits better. Staff is fantastic. Administration is suspect.
Do your job!
