Welcome Sportsfans!!!

This is the first entry on what will be a weekly blog. Once a week we will post upcoming events and give feedback and analysis of recent games. We encourage all true BYU fans to come back regularly to check on what's going on and to post comments.

The first rule of being a good BYU sportsfan is to follow the NCAA sportsmanship guidelines. Obeying the rules is the best way to make sure that the event is fun for everyone. This blog is also dedicated to telling the stories of individuals who have shown exemplary sportsmanship.

The NCAA code of conduct identifies the following as actions that may result in sanctions:

- Behavior that is reckless, dangerous, disruptive, or illegal in nature.
- Demonstrating signs of impairment from alcohol or other substances.
- Foul or abusive language or obscene gestures.
- Interference with the progress of the game (including entering the field of play or throwing objects onto the field).
- Failing to follow instructions of stadium personnel or law enforcement officers.
- Verbal or physical harassment of the opposing team's players or fans, field officials, or stadium personnel.
