Friday Nite Pep Rally set

Rah, rah, rah ... sis, boom, bah!

I actually don' know what that means. My guess is something to do with cheerleading. So, with that said, The Mtn.’s Friday Nite Pep Rally will be televised live from War Memorial Stadium on Friday.

The show is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m. and run until 8 p.m.

The event, which is free to the public, will be in the southwest corner of War Memorial Stadium. In case of inclement weather, the event will move to War Memorial Fieldhouse.

Qdoba Mexican Grill will be serving free food to the first 400 Wyoming fans in attendance, beginning at 7 p.m, and the The Mtn. will be giving away promotional items throughout the telecast.

Wyoming head coach football Joe Glenn and Wyoming seniors Ward Dobbs, Devin Moore and Quincy Rogers will be taking part in the pep rally. The Homecoming Sing winners will also participate in the program.

The show will be hosted by The Mtn.’s Rich Cellini, Jon Berger and Andrea Lloyd, who will also be the announcers for Saturday’s 81st meeting between the Cowboys and Utah Utes.

A year ago, Wyoming’s Pep Rally was among the best attended in the Mountain West Conference. The Mtn.’s “Friday Nite Pep Rally” travels around the Mountain West Conference during the college football season making a stop at each MWC institution. The show features players, coaches and other notable personalities from the host school in a live half hour telecast, sharing stories and insight on the host school’s program, while previewing the upcoming game. Fans, students, band members and cheerleaders also participate in the evening’s events.

Rah, rah, rass, kick 'em in the .... I better stop before I get into trouble.

Mr. Thompson goes to Washington

No, this is not a remake of Jimmy Stewart's 1939 classic movie, "Mr. Smith goes to Washington." Mr. Thompson is Mountain West Conference commissioner Craig Thompson, who spent Thursday and Friday pleading his case that the current BCS football playoff system ... well, kind of sucks. The only problem is Congress is not in session. Evidently, they are on the President Obama World Tour drumming up support for the porkulus bill ... uh, I mean stimulus bill that was signed earlier in the week. Thompson is spreading the word to people who will spread the word to Congress when their travel expenses run out and they have to return to Washington. You have to give Thompson an A for effort. At least he is trying to get something done. Unfortunately, he's probably barking up the wrong tree. Putting the BCS in the hands of Congress is like having your alcoholic friend watch a six-pack of Bud Lite for you that you are anxiously looking forward to at the end of the day. I'd

More "I hate Brett Favre" ranting

I probably should see somebody about this, but I can't stop dumping on Brett Favre . Well, this seems to be normal for most Packers' fans these days. I caught a blog by Green Bay Press-Gazette assistant online editor Jeff Ash that I found amusing. Ash blog I kind of fell off my ESPN and NFL Network boycott last night and this morning. I admit, I did check out both networks. Well, at least until the latest Favre love-fest . Of course, it was just a warm-up for tonight's Vikings-Chiefs preseason game. More loving to come.

Thanks for the memories

As I put my watch up to my ear, I expect to hear click, click, click, as each second moves forward. Kind of like my current days as a sportswriter ... click, click, click. For some reason, though, the watch is silent as it continues time. Again, kind of like my current days of operating Wyoming Sports.org. Yikes, cliche' overload here. The simple fact is my sports website is probably on its last leg. I say probably because in two weeks I will begin a new job as news copy editor/designer for the Wyoming Tribune Eagle in Cheyenne. Not only will I not have the time to cover local sporting events in Laramie, I can see my new employers likely not wanting me to compete against the WTE's fine sports staff. It makes perfect sense and I totally understand. When the position opened a while back, with my wife's blessing and encouragement, I decided to apply for the job. Friday night I was offered the position and I accepted. I do admit it will be a little strange not being a sportswr
