I think that the image of a donkey is a good one, stalwart, hard-working, dedicated, maybe just a bit stubborn at times and unwilling to be forced into working harder than it should, but, overall, a respected animal of high intelligence.

Unlike many who use the word to disparage others. Maybe if Dr. Kustra could check with a few of his scholars at the Metropolitan Research University of Distinction – or a collegiate dictionary he could get a handle on these complex rabble-rousing jibs ‘n jabs. What is it – a slow news day or something?

Akey really shouldn’t have called BSU the donkeys.

Now I can’t get this image of the Vandals getting donkey-f$#%ed out of my head.

Open containers are allowed in New Orleans? If so, that would make it one of the few civilized places in this country. Our society needs to de-regulate alcoholic beverages. A government that treats its citizens like children will someday put some of them in concentration camps.

Let’s be real about ‘name calling’ and the propensity for personal attacks.

Personal attacks are used to incite emotion based decision making rather than the rational decision making process. This tactic is typified by the originator being in the vulnerable position.

Dictionary Definition:
name–call•ing
Pronunciation: \ˈnām-ˌkȯ-liŋ\
Function: noun
Date: 1853
: the use of offensive names especially to win an argument or to induce rejection or condemnation (as of a person or project) without objective consideration of the facts
(Source: Merriam-Webster, http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/name%20calling)

So, now that we are straight on that issue, lets just wait till the game starts to see if the ‘donkeys’ just poke-along or play “Donkey-Kong” with the University of Idaho.

I too heard Dr. Bob this morning and thought he was going to “nut up” and die due to an apopolectic seizure. His rant was unreal!

This is all good fun for everyone in the State of Idaho. My daughter, who attends BSU can’t wait for her younger brother to get home from the U of I so that she can have someone from the “ememy” with her when she is tailgating.

Note to Dr. Bob, take a Vallium with a “boiler maker” and enjoy this weekend.
