I’m certainly trying to

So you ignore someone…then start a thread to ask what they’re saying?

That seems odd.

Doubt it. Even 54-10 didn’t keep them from claiming they were the better team.

Wilner has always been wonky on his AP ballots. It’s one of the things that drives me nuts about him.

As a fan, I can certainly enjoy his vote of confidence. As a neutral observer, however, I think Utah has a lot to prove before anyone can claim we’re in the Top 10.

being a liberal in a Utah market probably didn’t help his job security

Uh…what? Gunther was a very outspoken conservative.

While I didn’t personally like listening to him, getting fired is just a standard part of working in radio.

I wouldn’t hold it against him, as that’s a pretty volatile industry.

Best of luck to your son on finding a new gig, Gunther’s mom.

I couldn’t stand Gunther’s tough guy, “Real ‘Murican” shtick, but thought Ben was great. Sad to see him go.

Personal shortcomings aside (his multiple DUI’s), I actually kinda like Checketts as a radio guy. Would have liked to see him paired with Ben.

For a second, I thought you meant that Gunther had only been wrong once. LOL

He’s basically wrong about pretty much everything, every day, forever.

TDS fans claim a lot of things.

And we don’t have a kicker.

Same when I saw it last weekend. The kid (maybe 4 or 5) wasn’t crying, but literally would NOT SHUT UP through the entire 3 hours. Makes those quiet, impactful moments a bit less so when you have a kid yelling “MOM, IS THAT THOR? LOOK AT BADGUY GO BOOM!” at the top of his lungs. Mom never even gave the kid so much as a “shhh” the entire time.…[Read more]

Who is the backup – er, starting – kicker?

Rob Liefeld apparently now does portraits in gyms. Who knew?

(too obscure?)

Yup. He could barely hold the ball at all in that hand. Also said the break was severely aggravated multiple times during the season, but he played through it.

They did mention that the rehab is going pretty well and he’s doing everything he can to be ready for fall camp, which is encouraging.

Spence Checketts.

I always liked him, but maybe that was just because he was a counterbalance to Monson the Uber-Douche. Not opposed to giving him another listen.

I’ve always liked Herm. He seems very genuine, he’s positive, he’s funny, and he just seems like an all-around good dude. Which is difficult, because I absolutely despise ASU.

I highly doubt he’s using the tactics Trolly McTrollerson indicated above, but even if he does, I don’t really know that I’d hold it against him much. College football…[Read more]
