So far this World Cup has been a great reminder that we make too many assumptions about one another, and that the vast majority of humanity is awesome.
It's been pretty damn refreshing, honestly.

No joke: one of the other guys in that group that I lifted the rope for so they could get to the bathroom?
Aaron Rai.
So basically, if I lifted the rope so you could take a leak during the Monday practice round at Augusta, you’re guaranteed to win a major this year.

Tyler Allgeier left a birdied franchise to escape the shadow of a top 10 draft pick only to land at another birded franchise to be cast under the shadow of a top 10 draft pick.

Went to the Masters for the first time yesterday. (Shouts to the great @BYUAllBlue for making it happen.) Watching players skip balls across the water at 16 was an unexpected highlight.

No golf hole is better suited for TV than No. 16 at Augusta National.
Between legendary shots and the calls that accompanied them, there’s nothing better than the famous par-3 at the Masters, writes @MMcCarthyREV ⬇️

BYU spent big on football and basketball and never got close to the biggest stage in either sport. Examining the ROI and what's next for the Cougars -->

Most LDS missionaries are serving right out of high school but we still see a good number of football players leave after playing a year or two (like recent transfer Jake Clifton).
This "5 consecutive years" rule would unfairly constrain those who don't leave at 18.
It’s absolutely ridiculous that we have 25-year-old “students” who graduated 3 years ago still playing college football.
My bill is simple: you get 5 consecutive years to play 5 seasons. After that, you’re done.
No more of this “COVID free year of eligibility” crap.

I understand BYU fans are disappointed. We all are. But you also need to grasp that this was never supposed to be the team. This team was supposed to have Richie, Dawson and Nate. Got a bunch of bad injury luck and could never fully overcome it. It’s frustrating, but it happens.

That Moo Davis dunk looked cathartic. Been a tough slog for him and it’s looking like he’s starting to turn a corner.

There’s a BYU student in the ROC wearing a 49ers jersey. Dude summoned the darkness of the electrical substation to the Marriott Center. The curse is real.

It’s ok to admit that Darren Peterson is better than AJ.
He’s got so much more polish to his offensive game right now. AJ could very well develop into a better player but right now it’s pretty clear who would be the #1 pick.

Elder Fernando Mendoza having the same "eventually I'm going to have to talk to a girl" conversation that so many of us had after two years of being married to the game.

Looking forward to the jersey retirement ceremony at halftime. Heard they’re putting both 10 and 2 up there for the most legendary BYU Legend.
