You really look foolish. Don't comment anymore if that is really how bad your reading comprehension is. Dick did his homework and put it in the story. You are not telling us anything we didn't read in the story. Go back to your mother's basement and quit acting like a BYU student.

Saying its too expensive to have the channel is a joke dude.

LOOOOOOOL!!!!!!

Your school spends millions on athletics and can't afford a few bucks for espn looooool!

I don't think cable packages to the dorms come out of the athletic budget. Just a guess. And yes BYU spend millons on athletics; and so does Utah and Utah State. Way to state the obvious there genius.

"Provo should count their blessings. Who knows what they would do if they had to deal with what goes on at Texas A&M or WSU or any other party school."

From one born and raised in Provo I have never counted BYU as a blessing, more so I have looked at the lame school as a curse. I would rather have a party school in Provo. Yeah there would be drinking and an enjoyment of college life but at least all the students wouldn't walk around with their religion on their shirtsleeve constantly judging and policing everyone but themselves. This big brother culture that BYU engenders is a hideous joke.

Is that no matter who points out how lame the Y is, typical Zoobs and loser Mormons will still think its the best University in the world. Keep dreaming... btw I didn't attend the Y or U but both of your graduates now work for me so shut up about how special your educations are.

ESPN is such an idiotic network anyways. You can watch it on the internet for free anyways. I'm proud BYU holds true to its standards, something few other places in this world do! Thanks for the comments all...it's great to see so many comments on BYU sports pages, more than any other Utah school! Love 'em or hate 'em, most who come here can't resist to write a comment, and that means they're obsessed in some form!

Sports is nuts | 3:48 p.m. May 11, 2009

Who cares about sports? All you crazy sports fans need to get a life and stop camping around the TV all day every day.

Whoa there, Dick. Here's a question: does a Mountain West team really make any noise if ESPN isn't there to hear it? Good luck making the ongoing argument you deserve to be in the BSC discussion while thumbing your nose at the network that has all the rights to those games. Besides, that national exposure thing really is overrated. Enjoy the CSTV Bowl!
