Very classy comments....

"drove east with his third wife" :lol:

Tracy is actually on his FOURTH (4th) wife. While the statement I just typed in is factual -- I hardly find anything amusing about it.

 

[whyoh]

why are people surprised that a sports radio host has a big ego?

don't change dino.....you are an entertaining dude

 

[wyocowboy2014]

Can someone please explain to me why Dino has any sort of affiliation to Wyoming? I may be mistaken but if memory serves me right, he showed up a year or two ago, setup shop in Cheyenne, and jumped on the Wyoming wagon. Something seems strange. Big time sports radio hosts don't usually setup in Wyoming. Either his wife's job brought him here or someone was sent to pasture. No disrespect, just curious why the sudden interest in the Pokes?

Did your mommy and daddy not teach you any manners?

While your question is a good one - can you explain to me how anyone else could possibly answer your inquiry in any kind of a definitive way other than with the answer coming from me?

Firstly a question for you: Am I not permitted to be a Wyoming fan?

A second question: Would you not hope that as the days, months, and years go by, that there are not more Wyoming fans?

Now as to your specific question...my interest in Wyoming football/basketball, right?

Below please find the Readers Digest condensed version.

Well, it seems that a pretty long time ago, circa 2002, a man came out to the Rocky Mountain West from the east actually...a man who had worked at various radio stations in various towns (much like a former newspaperman here who might have set a record for most newspapers worked at in a career) over the course of his career up to that point...and this man landed in Denver, Colorado.

It was to be the most unexpected and welcomed sojourn of this mans life - for he took to the cool and clean, crisp, Rocky Mountain air, almost as soon as he stepped off the Amtrak train at Union Station on that early fall day.

Perhaps this man was a match for the west right from the jump?

A man who reveled in western cowboy culture and history for a very long time prior to his arrival in Denver...the match it would seem, was made in proverbial heaven.

To make a long story short, this man, although a college football junkie ( in addition to a universal sports junkie), had never identified with any specific college football team over the course of the then 39 years of his life.

His first foray into the college football game out here in the mountain west, was a tip to Ft. Collins and a Colorado State Rams game.

His second was a trip to Boulder for a game with the Buffs of Colorado.

his third trip to a game happened to be in Laramie with a game against the zoomies from the Air Force Academy.

This man was captured by the scenery, he was taken in by the underdog status of this team with a jumping and bucking bronc on their helmets...and so, he decided that wonderful day, to 'adopt' the Wyoming Cowboys as his favorite college football team.

Now that was some time ago, skippy.

And although this man lived in Denver (actually Longmont at first) he would routinely travel up to 3-4 Cowboys games every year after he became a fan of the teams.

Often times, this man would travel to Laramie on a Friday evening (many times in bad weather and hating route 80 in the process) and stay at a motel overnight, eat a hearty breakfast the next morning, then head to the stadium where he'd buy a ticket (most times - although a few times I requested a credential) and root-root-root for the home team.

Through the years this man rooted on the likes of, Jovon Bouknight, Casey Bramlet, Derrick Martin, Mike Neuhaus, Luke Chase, Wynel Seldon, Chris Prosinski, Josh Biezuns...do I have to keep going? This mans affinity for Wyoming football turned into a minny obsession of sorts. Soon walls in his den, his office, were filled with Wyoming photographs and other Pokes related stuff. He began collecting any kind of Wyoming Cowboys artifacts he could run across (just last season for example this guy ran across a 1987 Wyoming Cowboys Pepsi promotional poster featuring Paul Roach, Dabby Dawson, and Mitch Donahue. Through the office of the very classy Tim Harkins this guy was able to get the poster which is now framed autographed by Coach Roach) and it turned into a full blown love affair.

His appearance at a Cowboys game a few years ago (against New Mexico) was the result of him being in town to do a few remote broadcasts for SXM in downtown Denver during Tebow-mania...he had relocated back east for a brief 2 year run before coming back out to his beloved mountain west.

Speaking of that, this man, once he got to know the state of Wyoming a bit (while still living in Colorado) always endeavored to move to the Cowboy state when and if the opportunity ever presented itself.

It did.

This man is now here.

Living in Cheyenne.

The rest is history.

Go Pokes.

What a wonderful and heartwarming story...eh?

Please feel free to share this with your children.

Can you read? I started my question with can someone please tell me. Someone refers to anyone on this board including yourself. Unfortunately, you cannot make a post without attitude issues. I find it ironic you ask me about manners since you have exemplified your outstanding manners on this board. Did I ever say you were not permitted to be a Wyoming fan? Go ahead and point out in my post where I said that. I guess reading comprehension isn't your strong point.

Indeed, my attitude, right...MY attitude, I see.

Lets see, I simply ask a question about a possible financial donor to the University, Ringolsby comes after me with a wise-ass remark, I answer him, and we're talking about my attitude?

I see, so take shit all day long - but don't dare answer back?

Sorry, The Sports Doctor doesn't play that way.

Lastly, how in the hell would anyone here except myself know of my Wyoming fan origins?

However, I'm happy to know that you now have the rest of the story.

Did I just hear Paul Harvey calling out to me?

Tracy is actually on his FOURTH (4th) wife. While the statement I just typed in is factual -- I hardly find anything amusing about it.

Knowing your desire to be accurate I am married to my third wife, and we have been together more than 20 years.
Sorry you are so touchy on every issue.
Also please don't bother the people in my seats at the next home game. I will be working at that time, and won't be able to make that game.
Will be nice to see you again, though. If you remember when you said you were moving to Cheyenne told you I'd be happy to have coffee with you at any time.
Always happy when somebody likes my hometown. Have a lot of pride in an area that was originally settled by my grandmother's famiy, and where my dad (Pine Bluffs) and I (Cheyenne) were born. My mom migrated west from the other side of the state, having grown up in Superior, Wy., where her father worked in the coal mines when he wasn't organizing the miners in SW Wyoming and NE Utah as a Vice President for John L Lewis. They were latecomers, not coming to the state until around 1920, more than 60 years after my father's family.

Matt Dillon: All right now, just a minute here. You two keep this up your going to have a stroke and if you do I'll throw you both in jail.
Doc: That's a great remedy for a stroke.
Matt Dillon: Yes, I might add another charge too. Disturbing MY peace.

Seriously fellas, shut it down or take it somewhere else

I'd be happy to WyoAlum, your request has been fulfilled.

I am done with this here thread.

I promise.

 

[Aaron]

In my opinion Tracy is the man. Even if I can't see through your cowboy hat when you stand at basketball games :lol:

 

[WyoAlum1987]

They are both good guys. Leave it at that..

 

[Cornpoke]

Dino I think it's great the national attention you bring to Wyo but coming on here and attacking Tracy? That's below the belt man. Tracy is a stand up guy who bleeds brown and gold. I've had the pleasure of meeting him on multiple occasions.

Us Wyo fans should stick together and take out our frustration on Air Force and other fan bases :thumb:

 

[stymeman]

boys, boys, I don't see any issues, I like the fact that Dino has a nationwide platform and talks about it on many occassions, I am glad to have him live in Cheyenne for the fact that success can be achieved anywhere with hard work and dedication. I think some of us in Wyoming always have a persona of East Coast people and that they are all bad. I was born and raised in Wyoming(Buffalo), have moved away on many occassions, Denver, Phoenix and Salt Lake City, only to find myself missing what is important, and that's quality of life, sure I won't get rich here but I love where I am etc.....I don't need to defend him by any stretch, and I like Tracy as well, any pub we can get by the media and national sportswriters to me is a good thing. It's gets tiring of tirades and attacks, like it was said many many years ago, can't we all just get along.....???
That's my 2 cents worth, if it matters worth anything? the big key point is Wyoming is having a good year with a good QB and vastly improved Defense and an offense worth watching and hopefully we will contend for the MWC Mountain Division and wouldn't it be cool to have a game at War Memorial Stadium on Dec 7, we'll see how many people would support something like that, no excuses Pokes fans if it does happen. GO POKES!!! Go Brett!!!!
