Yes, I am one of those Mormons, but rather than run away like a pussy, I let them know just what kind of jackasses they are and continue to support the Utes.

You don't run away? That's the friggin problem. It's people like you that feed that monster. You are enabling them. That's the worst thing you can do. Enable bad behavior.

So, running away is better than defending my religion?

I never thought about it that way. Thanks for the lesson about cowardice.

And you wonder why BYU doesn't come out on fire at times in the rivalry game? I think Utah is 6-1 at LES. Because they have more talent or better coaches?
What is BYU's record since starting the firesides? And not just in the rivalry game?

I am by now wins saying that BYU is winning because of the firesides, but they sure as hell aren't losing because of them either. So in the case Ex, take your warm glass of shut the hell up and go park outside Whit's house and change your oil.

I guess the fireside explains why BYU only started the game last year 14-0 and Beck threw for 150 yards in the first quarter. It just sucked the life out of them. If they hadn't had the fireside, it probably would've been 21-0 or 28-0 in the first quarter.

CB where you are taught what to think. I like the inquiring and open minds here, with an emphasis on 'minds'. It's why this board was set up.

Since you had no grounds to refute my point, you resort to a complete nonresponse. Point, Indy Coug.

They do firesides night before all games, home or away. The Laramie fireside worked OK, I don't know why you'd be too upset over this one.
