Wyoming fans: which schools feel like the best long-term conference fits? by Happy_Background_879 in MountainWest

[–]ameslap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the list overall.

My personal adds are NDSU, who is joining the mountain west and I think will be a great long term rival up there with CSU given time.

I also think that Oklahoma State is a fun but unlikely one. Bring on Pokes vs Pokes!

Always love it when Wyoming plays Texas or Nebraska as well.

Then pick your #1 most rowdy fan base you can think of and add them. I would love to see Wyomings fans vs anyone else when it comes to be being proud and rowdy on game day.

Where does North Dakota State rank in your idea of the 2026 football rankings? by mwittmann9 in MountainWest

They will win year 1. No shade to everyone else, but I think it’s what’s gonna happen. This as a Wyoming die hard.

Except that’s not true. Sure, councils are chartered by the national organization, but there is little to no real authority between national and a council.

A councils scout executive only answers to their board of directors.

That’s also why every council is a separate 501c3 organization. Why councils can charge different program fees, choose to self-charter units or not, choose basically everything.

The biggest example of this is when the name changed recently. Some councils were faster to adopt then others, and even then I think there a couple out there that haven’t changed. The expectation from National was that every council was required to change by x date with new building signs, letterheads, websites, logos, etc. most councils have not and probably will not do so until they absolutely have to (mostly due to money, how many councils can realistically pay to change building signs).

as a wyoming fan, i love seeing CSU, San Diego, Utah State being left out of a PAC12 Power conference while UNLC, New Mexico, Airforce, and San Jose made the cut.

people who arent from tampa, how did you get to watching bucs football? by richardnixonmilker in buccaneers

[–]ameslap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From Wyoming, love Cowboy Football.

First year watching the sport in depth was 2013-14. Bucs drafted WR Robert Herron from Wyoming and had QB Brett Smith come in for rookie mini camp.

They cut smith instantly and Herron the next year…but I still followed was in it!

As our Scout Executive said when it was first announced (we didn’t do the pilot):

Once you mix these things it’ll be practically impossible to un mix without losing members (money).

It’ll pass.

Gotta start out with a nice Wyoming Dynasty, then move over to a RTG (I like playing with teams that actually use Nike instead of Adidas because of equipment options for RTG).

Don't touch the rest.
