Hi Baylor fans. Looking forward to the game tonight in Provo. Just some thoughts.

As a BYU fan I obviously hope we win, but I'm expecting a close loss, which is fine because Baylor fans have always been classy and we have a lot of respect for you guys.

Rumor has it there will be some signs in the student section about how awesome RGIII is. Super classy guy who deserved the Heisman and has always been fair when calling a BYU game.

Hopefully those who made the trip are treated with class. We've enjoyed being in the Big 12 and while we want to win we also don't want to come off as pompous entitled jerks. Like I said before, Baylor fans have been especially welcoming and that's something we value and need to reward.

Definitely respect what you guys have done this season and I'm glad you are in the top 10. Good luck tonight!

Welcome. I think you'll find most Baylor fans are thrilled to have you guys in the Big 12.

While I'm hoping for a Baylor win tonight, obviously, I wish you guys nothing but luck and success the rest of the way. This BYU team is a fun one to watch.

I just hope the game is well officiated. I'm not holding out much hope for that.

I think this is something that everyone in the conference can agree on.

Unfortunately I will be on an airplane watching it on my iPad. Bad time for a business trip. Otherwise I would invite you over to our BBQ potluck for some brisket, baby back ribs, and of course, BYU Creamery ice cream, before the game. Anytime we play someone in the top 15 a bunch of us get together for kind of a mini tailgate. That may sound crazy, but try spending time in the WCC and only getting excited for 2 games against Gonzaga every year. Next time you are in town for basketball or football let me know and we'll hook you up...I mean, as long as you don't mind spending time with people who are so nice to opposing fans that it's borderline creepy.

Thanks for the kind words and cordiality. Good luck, win the rest of your games but I hope we win this one by 1.
I have found theres only two ways to go:
Living fast or dying slow.
I dont want to live forever.
But I will live while I'm here.

I don't think so. I think we are past that at this point. It kind of hurt at the time because we weren't exactly doing well at the time, and everyone was strangely silent about the situation. But now we are more competitive and we have had time to get over it. Then again, that's just me.

I was actually hoping that the starting five for Baylor, or maybe Coach Drew, would give the BYU coach a bottle of water during introductions.

Two points

1. Sakhr sounds like soccer. A freakin communist sport with lots of fake injuries and no fat people. (One of those things I don't like and one is a fitting description of me)

2. BYU folks make it tough to hate them but, I'm really, really trying. Wish me luck.

The coaches of all the best teams have been ejected this year. Get your coach to do that before the under 16 timeout in the first half and we will know y'all are serious about being good at hoops.

Wishing you average to slightly better than average luck starting tomorrow.

BYU has a HUGE arena. 19,000 capacity I believe; that dwarfs our tiny arena.

Try picturing them in Tech shirts. See if that helps draw out some hate

That would just make him hungry and wonder why none of them have given him his large pepperoni and sausage.

I studied Arabic at the Defense Language Institute in Monterey when I was in the Army. Sakhr was the Arabic name I was given there. Due to that I can look past the fact that its approximate English pronunciation sounds like soccer.

I'm glad we make it hard to hate us. Personally, we wish you the best.

I personally like your new arena, even if it is smaller than ours. The student section behind the visiting bench is genius.

I'm glad we were nice and friendly. Hopefully it takes some of the sting off the loss.

Oh, thank goodness it's Arabic.

I've now moved from trying to hate y'all to aiming for apathy.

I appreciate your bench getting the tech last night. An ejection would have been much nicer but, the T is a start.

Apathetically yours,
LIB
