I do. We've got some real crazy people in society

From outraged BYU fans? From embarrassed New Mexico fans? From neutrals?

I think those clips were shown on ESPN at the time, so the threats could have come from anywhere

To summarize: It's because of sexism. And the sport. And the fans. And BYU's

I loved the “that’s not me” after a long list of incidents.
