Pics from the scrimmage are coming

I stuck around to see the hysteria with the press and Kellen Moore. Kellen was being questioned about 15 minutes after everyone else was finished being interviewed ( besides Coach Harsin) and the rest of the players headed off to do their own thing.
While waiting I saw several big time players sign autographs near the locker room, all with smiles on their faces. They did not have to do this and could have walked on by. It made me think that those smiles that the kids (asking for autographs) show off, make it all worth it.
Coach Pete was one of the last few staff/players to leave the BLUE and he said Hello to those waiting near the locker room and told one recruit to keep lifting. Told another player's parent that their son was doing great. It was a side of the players and the coaching staff that most people don't get to see unless they look for it. I was happy to see it and the pics coming up over the next few days ( why rush, we have a million days until Fall practice), will be displayed with nothing but positive comments. No more negative comments.....we will see how long that remains.
Enjoy the weekend!

A small amount of Paul J ringtones that will give a quick blast down memory avenue...

On a much more postive note

Yonder Mountain String Band rambles back through town, wreaking havoc in only a alt-bluegrass kinda way.....If you are within 30 miles of Boise at this late date...stop on down at the BIG EASY and watch me get thrown out as I try to bootleg ( video) some songs.......make sure to wear your overalls

Vandals Overalls..........
Broncos Overalls.................

Disgusting this still goes on......

Interview/thoughts on Lance Allred, former Idaho Stampeder player (now up riding the pine with the Cav's and massaging Lebron's bad back), who was raised in a polygamous family until 13 yrs of age, were recently brought up due to the alleged pedophiles in El Doradao, TX......This is very much a sidestep from the usual Boise State flow but this story of taking 400 people ( women and children) out of a compound, makes me want to puke.....That compound did not sound like all was lovey dovey like BIG LOVE.......where is Bill Henrickson when you need him? This is sad that there has not been a big raid like this since 1953...I pity these kids! Are pedophiles using their religion to break the law? I am glad I was not raised in a FLDS community!

I can see Caves and Prater having this conversation....
