tough to be a fan




tonight we watched the cougs play the horned frogs with some friends. after religiously following them for the past 5+ years, i've decided that it's a tough job being a cougar fan. until tonight, they held the longest winning streak in the nation and had hopes of being a major BCS buster. the hype of the "three undefeated" BYU, UofU, and BSU teams was enough to keep chris from studying and get me more interested than usual. as a fan, you generally want and hope the best for your team, and usually, if you're lucky, they don't disappoint. i've learned however, that with BYU, this is not the case. they raise your hopes, only to shoot them down quicker than you can say Rose Bowl. chris wanted nothing more than for bronco to yell at his players and chew some booty. i just wanted max to make a play without getting sacked. after the pathetic loss to TCU tonight, let's just hope that they stay in the top 25.
