Ok, Suspender boy was one example of one who hates. I also stated that
there are those who still do but that there are fewer and less of it from Utah.

I have never seen an FBYU shirt and never even heard of Sacrament Jello-shots - which is a cultural slam if it happened and not necessarily hate based, more like bad taste or bad form. I am Mormon and don't find it funny but also don't find it really offensive to BYU specifically. More to Mormons everywhere.

Screen names are fun and interacitng with a rival is more fun than singing the same song, with like minded fans.

CB has so many Utah based posts it isn't funny but that is not necessarily an indicator that they hate Utah. There are plenty of fun things that don't mean hate. Like replacing swear words with Yewt all over CB, or icons with Utah being smashed, or never using he word Ute or never calling Kyle Whittingham by his actual name. etc, etc, etc,

The hate is manifest in other ways.

Like a BYU fan running onto the field and physically attacking a Utah cheerleader,

like Max Hall's comments, that Bronco or the school never really appologized for.

Like so many board mails that I have received - you wouldn't even believe how over the top unfreindly and down right hateful they are.

Like a recruit burning a letter from Utah on Twitter, etc.

All I am saying is that the tide has changed. There is still hate on both sides - although not from me - but there is less on the Utah side and more on the BYU side than there ever has been. IMO.
