Re: Boise fans tears
That’s hilarious. I studied journalism at USU for a few years and I’d have to check my old notes but I don’t think they were even mentioned once. We talked about most of the other big ones though and even many of the not so big ones.Dwigt wrote: ↑February 12th, 2024, 6:59 pmHoot wrote: ↑February 12th, 2024, 9:30 amIf it sounds like a website where SLB gets his news I’m not interested.Dwigt wrote: ↑February 12th, 2024, 8:30 amI’m okay not taking anyone about Boise, I’m more interested in how you have never heard of US News.Hoot wrote: ↑February 11th, 2024, 11:32 am
A publication so prestigious that I’ve never heard of it!
Look man, I appreciate that you are for some reason expending effort to change my opinion on Boise Idaho but it’s not gonna happen. I’ve lived there, I have to go there all the time, to me it’s an absolute dump and the “benefits” of living there are very mediocre. If you like it then good for you!
Let’s move on with the day now
US News are World Report has been around for decades. They are most known for the university rankings every year. They are in the middle on the Ad Fontes Media Bias chart so probably are hyper-left according to SLB.

Re: Boise fans tears
I used to think that too until I stood there and listened to Dave Hall recount about 10 different ways he threw calls against USU because we wouldn't remove fans who were bothersome to him, causing us to lose a close game to SDSU. They do change games and sometimes they do it on purpose.Madmartigan wrote: ↑February 12th, 2024, 1:58 pmBlaming the refs for losses is and always has been one of the lamest things a fanbase can do. In a close second to that is saying that a higher power (conference, league, etc) hates and is conspiring against you.ratofallaggies wrote: ↑February 12th, 2024, 10:10 amAgreed, and that's kind of my point as well. Never a good look to complain about refs when you were beat.

Re: Boise fans tears
I was a Journalism Major, but long before you. Purely print and legacy media. US News has been around for about 80 years or so and used to have a print publication similar to Time and Newsweek.Hoot wrote: ↑February 12th, 2024, 7:53 pmThat’s hilarious.

I’m sure it happens- just not as often as some of our fans think it does.Ahbye wrote: ↑February 12th, 2024, 10:37 pmI used to think that too until I stood there and listened to Dave Hall recount about 10 different ways he threw calls against USU because we wouldn't remove fans who were bothersome to him, causing us to lose a close game to SDSU.

Why would you think that's necessary?

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
