How pro sports explain what's wrong with politics

By Universe Contributor

The last two games of the NFL play-offs were held this weekend, and the tactlessness of some of the players was astonishing. Richard Sherman's emotional rant, Michael Crabtree’s refusal to shake hands and Wes Welker’s takeout of Aqib Talib were all classless acts that shame professional football. I'm from Colorado, and most of my friends are Broncos fans, though I know people who like each of the four teams. It shocked me how quick Broncos fans were to criticize the Seahawks' Sherman while defending the illegal play of their own wide receiver, Welker. Only two out of hundreds of posts about the topic on Facebook from Broncos fans admitted that Welker had ignored the ball and gone right for Talib, an illegal play per Rule 8, Section 5, Article 2.

BYU looks for different outcome against Boise State this time around

October 23, 2013 12:00 AM
In last year's contest against Boise State, BYU quarterback Taysom Hill came off the bench to help ignite a Cougar offense that couldn't gain any traction. A failed two-point conversion following the only offensive touchdown of the game proved to be costly, as BYU lost 7–6.
