Thug Mormons Walk-on

Ever heard of the 12th man in Seattle or A&M? Fan investment (not necessarily monetary) in the success of the team pumps up the players.

And yes, it is intimidating to opposing players.

I see no correlation between the two. You can be a fan and not donate to CB.

Blue Ghost

I know, it's just funny... but there is definitely correlation and it's strong.

How much Cougarboard subscriber money goes to BYU athletics?

kcca

8/23/17 9:38am

Only the amount Jefe pays for his CC membership and tickets...

Blue Ghost

8/23/17 9:39am

That's true... And I guess you gotta figure that jefe pays tithing on his

kcca

8/23/17 9:43am

Zero tithing dollars go to byu sports. But you probably already knew that

ryebrye

8/23/17 7:39pm

zero but my point is still valid and you know it.there is 1000's of byu fan dono

Mayor of Cougartown

8/23/17 9:42am

Haha I think you don't have a point

travispj772

8/23/17 9:44am

I have no idea what you mean. you should reread my posts.

Mayor of Cougartown

I like you Mayor, but with this you're wrong. But I'm a non-donor to CB...

I don't think you have a point without data. How many donors actually contribute

Mayor of Cougartown

im a BYU fan, not a CB fan. BYU wouldnt get that subscriber money

coltonbyu

8/23/17 10:48am

You do realize that non-donors make fun of donors for their "elitist" remarks

zerome4sooners

8/23/17 11:04am

No they don't. They don't have any FO to do so.

crazY

8/23/17 11:16am

NO SUCH THING EXISTS

coltonbyu

8/23/17 11:58am

dude, it's just 10$. and the perks make it worth it. You really should contribut

Mayor of Cougartown

8/23/17 3:14pm

$10 bucks? it says $14.95 for 3 months for me.

travispj772

8/23/17 3:24pm

Maybe there was once a $10/life thing? I hear that "it's only $10" a lot

ryebrye

8/23/17 7:41pm

yeah it change a little over a year ago

ColonelMustard

8/24/17 2:58pm

But you get the donor perks for life after paying $14.95.

crazY

8/24/17 3:04pm

That's a one time fee FWIW

I really don't understand CBers that try to pressure others into donating.

What does donating money to use a chat forum have to do with being a big fan?

Dissenter

8/23/17 4:46pm

just seems like if you spend a lot of time on here you'd want the benefits.

White would have been better for Aug. 26th.

bluegato

I agree.. but I'm still gonna wear navy to support the team

travispj772

Utah has 1 red color and one black game a year..

out with the casual fans Diehards only.

travispj772

8/23/17 9:47am

lol, I would think that 95% of game-attending fans have one of each

Dissenter

8/23/17 4:42pm

I'm a season ticket holder on CB and on TBS and I don't have all 3. I'm buying them this year

Is it really that hard not to complain about what people wear to games?

WJCougar

8/23/17 9:49am

It helps when your schools doesn't change the shade of blue on a regular basis

mudpupper

8/23/17 9:52am

I'm going to wear navy, doesn't mean I have to like it. Navy is

I think he means we will be playing the football team from Portland State

ferris euler

8/23/17 10:04am

your point? Less of an opponent means you can be less of a fan?

travispj772

travispj772

the right color thing is a cash grab

v1k0u6

8/23/17 9:59am

This doesnt move the needle for BYU at all in terms of a "cash grab"

travispj772

8/23/17 10:06am

More fans would wear the right color if the BYU stuck with one color

tyrwhite

8/23/17 11:01am

We tried that. For 40 years. It didn't work

Dissenter

8/23/17 4:42pm

GeauxCougs

penn state whiteouts are pretty intimidating

doubled1981

8/23/17 11:47am

To who? Other fans. I'm pretty sure to the players it's a non factor

GeauxCougs

I don't want to be told what color to wear. I wear BYU Football.

coastcat

8/23/17 11:14am

right, I went out and bought my entire family BYU gear Some wanted royal, some

GeauxCougs

8/23/17 11:30am

The players are turned on by the roar of the crowd and not by coordinated color

coastcat

8/23/17 4:38pm

I'll adjust for a white-out game, but otherwise I'll wear the blue shirt shade

TailgateU

8/23/17 11:37am

I've never noticed a difference of color of shirt vs how hot I get.

8/23/17 12:23pm

Too bad BYU doesn't allow fans to bring their own water. At Texas A&M I've seen

Uhhhh No.Navy is more tradition than Royal for BYU. It came first.

Utah has one color. We try to coordinate 5 or 6. This is a Bookstore $ promotion

Utah will wear as many colors as BYU this year. Red/White/Blk and Wht/Navy/Royal
