As one of the 17 KTVB folks in Phoenix over the last few weeks – I can honestly say it was one of the most exciting news events I’ve covered over the past decade. I was in PHX for Fiesta Bowl ’07 as well – but this one had an energy all its own. As of today I’m no longer in news, but am proud of the effort of my team – and proud to be a Bronco.

Mr. Guardian…

As our conquering heroes returned from the Desert, I’ve gotta confess my eyebrows raised a bit when Mayor Dave, stealing a bit of their limelight, announced there would be a big party for them, but it hadn’t yet been planned because first we needed to confirm the Fiesta Bowl win.

So… if they’d lost, Team Dave woulda let ’em slink back into town unheralded?

C’mon, Dave! Sure, you’re a Vandal, and it must’ve really pained you to wear that blue jacket… but our boys deserve some props win or lose, just for getting invited to the dance!

Everybody bust out the hats and hooters!

(Oh… and that’s an awesome reminiscence of your dad. Flying in Michigan in early January, most likely in a treetop flyer… that’s some heady stuff!)

Boise State football made the New York Times today. Pretty neat.

Meanwhile I am still trying to understand what a “scrimmage” is.

Nice story about your dad. And a hearty LOL this morning for Dee Sarton’s goosebumps.

Here’s to hoping that however many millions of dollars and a whole bunch o’ grandeur buy some @#$%^&* inspiration!

No Quarter when, at 100+ years of Statehood – and with fewer people than some neighborhoods I’ve lived in (literally) – things like proper infrastructure and K-12 education still prove elusive to them.

No political will.. at all.

The State Legislature has a unique opportunity to do some surgical repair of big government if they can summon the collective political will.

The game will go down as one of the all time great defensive battles. It may have been a low scoring game but it sure was exciting begining to end.

Coach Petersen looked like the Zen Master of the game. His composure as well as his ackmowlegement of the TCU coaching staff and team were a model we could all learn from. He is one of a kind.

Well, the win WAS nice. Still, you have to wonder if anyone noticed outside this valley. Actually, I wonder how many, other than the die hard Pony Fans, noticed inside the valley. Listening to the radio on my drive to work this morning I tuned into KBSU, thinking they would provide the score. Nothing. Not on the national news, not on KBSU’s local news.

Oh Well! We’re Number 3. We’re Number 3!

I want a big expensive new stadium and I want all the cool new progressive taxes to pay for it. It must have a trollie stop though or it’s a no go.

After such a negative article I am going to write something positive about the Guardian…….
GOODNIGHT MRS. KALABASH, WHERE EVER YOU ARE!
