We all know if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it, it doesn't make a sound. What I didn't know is that if I was in the forest and tried to send Cougar Clicks and there was no internet, nobody would receive it. I didn't start any forest fires and I didn't/couldn't send Cougar Clicks. I apologize profusely and politely, but it was actually pleasant to have no connection to the outside world for a while. I'm back and sending this double Clicks.good for the 7th and 8th. I will be sending out the July issue of Cougar Sportsline later this week. I always thought BYU needed a shot in the arm to rejuvenate the football program, but I'm not sure the shot in the arm which you will read about below is what they had in mind. Remember, only you can prevent forest fires and me from going out of business.Keep those renewals coming and those trees standing. hb HB Arnett's BYU Sports related links To subscribe to this service Click Here <http://www.cougarclicks.com/product/Order-Cougar-Clicks?ID=2641> Tuesday/Wednesday, July 7/8, 2015 hbarnett@fiber.net <mailto:hbarnett@fiber.net> . 801 372 0819 HB's Hurry Up Headlines.if you don't have time to read all of today's stories, here are my top picks of the day. <https://www.google.com/url?rct=j&sa=t&url=http://crimeblog.dallasnews.com/2 015/07/coppell-police-byu-football-recruit-charles-west-was-shot-after-argum ent-over-money.html/&ct=ga&cd=CAEYACoUMTAwNDIwMDkzOTg5MjA3NTkwNDIyGjM2OWQwMT BiODRmZDkxYzA6Y29tOmVuOlVT&usg=AFQjCNGtG7qnOFP9H5wJWFipmxQmGhKDOQ> Coppell police: BYU football recruit Charles West was shot after argument over money Dallas Morning News (blog) According to the affidavit provided by police Tuesday afternoon, the 18-year-old West, who has committed to play football for Brigham Young ... <https://www.google.com/url?rct=j&sa=t&url=http://usatodayhss.com/2015/byu-r b-recruit-charles-west-shot-in-walk-by-shooting-charges-against-west-may-be- motive&ct=ga&cd=CAEYACoSNTMyODE3ODc4MDA0NDQ2Mzc4MhozNjlkMDEwYjg0ZmQ5MWMwOmNv bTplbjpVUw&usg=AFQjCNEZ9t5MYXuj_k3ZBwDh_BWgEHZ6Sw> BYU RB recruit Charles West shot in run-by shooting, charges against West may be motive USA TODAY High School Sports These are troubling times in the life of BYU football recruit Charles West.
