What BBN said about it

  1. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA Colorado staff member allegedly left the team's offensive script at the hotel bar where Texas Tech fans were staying before the game in Boulder.

  2. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorIt's not a mistake, it's a decoy.

  3. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorNobody leaves forty pages of plays by the pretzels unless they want them found, and I respect the nerve.

  4. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThink about it, though.

  5. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSomewhere there's a fan in a red jersey holding the best souvenir in college football, and it came with a free basket of wings!

  6. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorWings.

  7. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorAnd the bartender is now the best-informed man in the state. He'll know the fourth-down call before the quarterback does, and he'll sell it.

  8. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorLet me finish, because Deion's response has been called bizarre, and I think he's just a man who trusts his team and his tip jar!

  9. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe question nobody is asking is whether the visiting fans actually read it.

  10. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIf a stranger reads your plan and thinks it's boring, that's the real leak.

  11. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorOr they read it and thought it was brilliant, which is worse, because then they have to root for us.

  12. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorOkay, okay, so the plan is on the bar, the fans are at the bar, and everybody wins!

  13. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorEverybody except whoever left it. At least they know the one person who definitely didn't read the script.
