Final: BYU 34 Utah 31 in the most exciting game I have ever seen live. BYU won by scoring a touchdown, they were down 31-27, with no time left on the clock. As my toughest coach used to say, "Gentlemen, we play the game because it's fun. Now, I don't know about you, but I have more fun when I win." My wife always tells me blowouts are boring. I respond by telling her that she's never played. However, today's game was one for the ages.
I'm hoarse, but I am glad I saw that game live. A big thank you to Brian and Jennifer for the tickets! I truly relish watching really great football. No sour grapes. Congrats to the Cougs and their fans. I hope we return the favor in Provo next year. I will add one bit of commentary, if my Utes had been able to put any pressure at all on BYU quarterback, John Beck, we would've won. So, good job BYU o-line. Keep your heads up Utah!
Blogito ergo sum! Actually, as N.T. Wright averred, "'Amor, ergo sum:' I am loved, therefore I am." Among other things, I am a Roman Catholic deacon. This is a public cyberspace in which I seek to foster Christian discipleship in the late modern milieu in the diakonia of koinonia and in the recognition that "the Eucharist is the only place of resistance to annihilation of the human subject."
