I know I’ve poked fun, but the Prime effect does have its upside. Colorado-Oregon beat Ohio State-Notre Dame on Saturday. Unthinkable in any non-Prime scenario.

I think I might vomit if I see the phrase "Coach Prime" one more time.  The dude's name is Deion Sanders, for fuck's sake.  Every time the announcers said "Coach Prime' my eye twitch got worse.  So obnoxious.

Coach Prime insisted on everyone calling him "Coach Prime".

So now you can call him Coach Prime and there might be a Coach Prime branded paper bag for you somewhere.  Remember He Ain't Hard 2 Find.

You need to show some god damned respect for the guy that invented football.  This is your last warning. Jalapeno has signed "Coach Prime" underwear.

I actually have a soft spot for the man, once being an impressionable young kid who loved watching his highlights on SportsCenter. I remember having his action figure and for a brief time even being an Atlanta Falcon fan. He’s always been Prime Time to me, so I don’t mind extending that to Coach Prime.

Finally you get it!  
 

Jokes aside, I get why cfb fans are annoyed with some of the coverage.  That said, you can’t deny the impact.  10mm watched that train wreck of a game?  More than osu/nd?  New fans are coming to the sport.

I've never denied the impact. The numbers speak for themselves. I've also said this hype train only stays on track if he wins. It will be interesting to see how many of these new "fans" jump off the train when CU has 5-6 losses.

While the hype will die down, I hope the fans stay.  The product is so much better than the nfl (imo anyway), there isn’t any reason the sport shouldn’t grow.  They may jump off of the cu wagon, heck I bet a handful became duck fans this weekend.

It looks like "Prime" was serious about teaching his whole team to fight to solve problems as we suggested in the summer. All class up there in Boulder.

 

Wanting to fight coaches now too. Amazing.  Where did this team learn to act and talk like this? Hmmmmm. Big mystery. 

 

"Among those doing the talking was one of Sanders’s sons, Shilo, who was caught on video saying, “I’ll beat the f— out of every one of y’all and your coach. Why y’all so little? We finna run through y’all a--.”

 

“I’d like to report a crime, to the murder to these Ducks,” assistant strength and conditioning coach Stephen Houston said."

This is the bad of everything being available via social media.  Players talk shit.  When you get your ass kicked everyone sees it and writes/posts about it.  
 

I am not sure what the rest of the point is.

I love how you just blindly support and have your coach's back with all this. Everyone is doing it I guess, so no big deal. LOL. Sorry, this is not the message to teach 20 year olds about life.

 

The other Sander's kid was up in the grill of the CSU coach.. But I guess everyone does that too. All good.

I’m curious what you think happens at Utah?  No trash talk?  Or do they suspend kids who trash talk.  Or do Utes never trash talk?  I’m afraid there may more than one blind man here.

I've never heard Utah players say they want to beat the fuck out of the other coach. Nor have I ever seen a Utah player up in the grill of an opposing coach at mid field with his father.

Has there been trash talk. Sure..

That’s the point.  For good and bad cu shows everything.  There is access to so much.  I don’t love all of it, but I’m also trying to not be hyperbolic about it all.
