Wow

I intended to come here and post about the BYU Utah game and how I thought BYU played a good game, etc.

Then I heard the following comments from Max Hall. What an idiot, I'm sorry, but what an idiot.

Sportscaster: "Personal redemption Max because you didn’t play as well against these guys last year?"

Maxie: "Um, a little bit, yeah. I don’t like Utah. In fact, I hate ‘em. I hate everything about ‘em. I hate their program. I hate their fans. I hate everything, so it felt really good to send those guys home.

"Um, they didn’t deserve it. It was our time. It was our time to win, we deserved it. We played as hard as we could tonight. And it felt really good, again, to send ‘em home, to get ‘em out of here. So, um, you know, a game I will always remember."

Sportscaster: "Any particular reason they are not your favorite team?"

Maxie: "Uh, you really want me to go into it? I mean, I think, I think, I think the whole University, their fans and the organization is classless. They threw beer on my family and stuff last year and did a whole bunch of nasty things. I don’t respect ‘em, and they deserved to lose."

Wow. That's all I can say. Wow.

Thankful Indeed

I imagine the folks in Utah heard about this story - but for those of you out of the State, read the following link.

And, if you can spare 5 bucks, donate to the Emily Jones fund. She is left widowed with her 18-month-old daughter and another on the way. God bless her and the rest of the extended family.

Halloween 2009 (new and improved)

Thanks to my sister and sister-in-law, this Halloween post is now new and improved. Below you will see pictures (including of the forgotten child Kimball) of the festivities. We carved pumpkins, dressed the boys as bengals, visited family, and had a good old time.
