Rob Birrell

@geoffjBYU Ok. Then I pick this. I change the station for any other David Bowie song. youtu.be/lCpXMy5GalI?is…

@BirrellRob I don’t love Bowie either. But you don’t have to love an artist to pick a favorite song.

Next artist up: David Bowie This one is hard. Too big of a catalog and really hard to choose a top three. I decided to include three eras for him. My three might not include your top choice. But that's what "Other" is for. #gjbestsongs Poll: Best Bowie song?

@gwowls The OJ car chase. But that didn't really make news in Spain. The craziest thing for me was seeing news of Courtney Love pushing Kurt Cobain to commit suicide.

What’s the craziest world event or personal thing that you missed out on during your LDS mission?

@ArtDirectorBYU I don't think anyone beats Texas Tech. And I said this earlier today, and need to stop saying it, but I don't see anyone beating Utah (including BYU). Their schedule is favorable and I'm afraid they're going to be good really good.

I don't think Texas Tech loses to Houston, but if they do, you could have a massive tiebreaker mess by December. Say one team goes 8-1 and then four teams who don't all play each other go 7-2. These big conferences are such a mess.

@geoffjBYU Or we just don't really like Bowie. A lot of my favorite music comes from the new wave/80's alternative era. But I don't like Bowie, The Police, Sting, Pretenders, B-52s, Eurythmics, Dexys Midnight Runners, or a bunch of other more poppy "alternative" groups.

Haha. David Bowie is evidently not well known enough anymore to garner votes.

@UteFanIvan @x_hems I can be a bit pessimistic about BYU. At the same time I can be overly optimistic about Utah. Hopefully I'm being overly optimistic about Utah this year. I don't know who will beat Utah this year. Their schedule is very favorable. So, yes, I see Utah vs. Texas Tech for the Big 12

See you in Arlington Brother Hammond

@Elijah_Bryant3 I love that you come back to workout. I hope BYU maintains a good connection with former players and they want to come back and play and workout in the summers. I know it's good for BYU. I would like to believe a BYU network could benefit players too.

Every time I walk out of the BYU facility after a summer workout I ask myself the same thing. Is there a better place in this country to get ready to play professional basketball? NBA front office personnel. NBA level facilities. NIL funding. I’ve played all over the world and I don’t think there is. Convince me otherwise

@TTU_Ty Losing weight made you a 76ers fan?

@dryflyelk I don't think my selfie output has increased at all. Maybe I should get on that. Also, why do celebrities on GLP-1s look terrible, but GLP-1s don't seem to have the same negative impact on normal people's looks?

GLP-1s do a remarkable job of helping people lose weight while simultaneously skyrocketing the number of selfies they post

@CougarStats @yeahyeahchris I'm worried AJ won't get to touch the ball. Young loves to shoot. Davis will demand his shots too. By the time the 2 of them squabble over who gets to shoot, how many shots will be left? Even though AJ is the #1 pick, will the coach have the guts to push Young and Davis to pass?

@yeahyeahchris If Trae Young and Anthony Davis are both healthy, you're likely hoping that the #3 scorer on a team can get at least 18 ppg. That might be a stretch goal.

The highest season scoring average in the NBA by a BYU player was Danny Ainge's 17.9 ppg for Sacramento during the 1989-90 season. Will Egor or AJ break that record this season?

@ToddLlewellyn Coaches, players, and potential recruits. It's not a great look when recruits see BYU fans trashing coaches, players, or former players.

BYU fans. My unsolicited advice is to be smart about what you post about the team/coaches. You would be surprised who sees your tweets.

@Brett_McMurphy The SEC, and the media, talk like this is a fact, but results on the field don't back it up. Even if you remove the Pac12 (which isn't a power conference anymore), the Big 12 had the best record against other conferences. The Big 10 had the 2nd best. topdan.com/college-footba…

@MenInBlazers And the next World Cup is in Spain. 🏆🏆🏆

How fans in Madrid reacted to Ferran Torres' World Cup-winning goal 🇪🇸 Even after 105 dire minutes, plus a halftime show, there's nothing like football ❤️‍🔥

How do you not have Iniesta bringing out the trophy?!?

@JakeHatch The longer that game went on the more important it was for Spain to win. I love Messi. Hopefully the Vargentina thing will end with him. The refs and var don't need to help them anymore.

Congrats Spain. Worthy World Cup champions.

@DJJazzyJody You can thank Dave Checketts for that one. He named RSL after Real Madrid, which is stupid. Of all the dumb names in MLS, RSL definitely has the worst name.

Spain's uniforms kinda remind me of Real Salt Lake, so that's something.

I really want Spain to win but I also love Messi so before the game I thought I would be happy for Messi if Argentina won. Not now. Argentina is obnoxious. Fouls, flops, dirty play. Argentina needs to lose!

@rhancoug17 You may have spoken too soon. Sorry kids but this Muppet/kids/kumbaya thing isn't going great.

World Cup 2026 halftime show >>> Super Bowl LX Bad Bunny halftime show. And it’s not even close kids.

@iiTzz_Tyrell Same. Vacation or medical needs. If I happen to need to work then I might stop at Holiday for a refill. I try (and fail too often) to not judge. I try to hope that people are just doing their best to be good people and do what's right for them.

Question for my LDS friends.. Do you shop on Sundays? Any stores? Or even like Maverik? No judgments here. Just want to understand people’s opinions on it. I personally don’t. Unless we need medicine or we are on vacation and need something.

@MenInBlazers Spain really need a Villa or Torres. Or Raul 🤮. It's kind of weird to talk about a weakness for the best team in the world but they would probably score more if they had real 9. The problem is Barcelona and Madrid usually have foreign 9s. Spain develops midfielders, not forwards

Zero shots, nine fouls committed from Argentina... 😐

@For3JT I get your feelings for Argentina as a Brazilian. But what did Spain do? Spain is an awesome place. Especially Barcelona.

I’d rather a meteor hits earth than cheering for Argentina or Spain. Yes, as a Brazilian, I am that bitter. 😭😭
