Just a quick question, what are your thoughts on chives?

Exactly what I was thinking.

1/23/12 7:23pm

Another point: These guys are probably used to F-bombs

ocmyhome

1/23/12 8:35pm

I bet those guys cared that someone actually paid attention

Iman23

1/23/12 7:29pm

Yes but my point is you can still show up,

cougfan_on9th

1/23/12 7:38pm

wow did we really have 5 million fans there?

invisible sman

1/24/12 2:41pm

I saw on tv the BYU fans wore school colors

cougarstolz

where were these guys last year when BYU lost to UCSB?

icecougar

I agree with you

runnincoug

1/23/12 7:47pm

Thanks. You hit it on the nail.

cougfan_on9th

1/23/12 8:07pm

All of those were harmless non personal taunts

Xamius

1/23/12 8:08pm

Those were about as personal as you could get,

cougfan_on9th

1/23/12 8:23pm

talking about a guy's Mom is about as personal as u can get

icecougar

1/24/12 11:37am

me too, sports should not be a manners free zone at byu

charles

Thanks for the laugh, these are all harmless.

Why didn't you stand up for what was right at the game and

QuinneyCoug

1/23/12 8:23pm

You'd be surprised how many people read CB.

cougfan_on9th

1/23/12 8:28pm

You still didn't answer my question as to why you stood on

QuinneyCoug

1/23/12 8:30pm

Never implied that

cougfan_on9th

1/23/12 8:36pm

Why do you think that everyone on CB shares your faith?

QuinneyCoug

1/23/12 8:38pm

Point taken, but the principle still remains.

cougfan_on9th

1/23/12 8:42pm

None of these were anywhere close to indecent

Xamius

1/23/12 8:55pm

I suppose that's what Capt Moroni would do today...

icecougar

No, they don't.

cougfan_on9th

aren't you being Close Minded by not considering other POVs?

icecougar

Wait, this is a serious post?

mncougar

1/23/12 8:10pm

You're right.

quikandskinny

cougfan_on9th

Did you?

quikandskinny

1/23/12 8:33pm

Losing and winning are part of the game,

cougfan_on9th

1/23/12 8:39pm

Rowdy crowds are also part of the game.

QuinneyCoug

1/23/12 8:42pm

When did I say to calm the crowd?

cougfan_on9th

1/23/12 8:48pm

Removing the taunts will calm the crowd.

QuinneyCoug

1/23/12 8:51pm

When did I say not to taunt?

cougfan_on9th

1/23/12 8:53pm

The examples you cited save maybe the nose one

QuinneyCoug

Many have speculated that the BOT may feel that way

ToasterChive

ToasterChive

QuinneyCoug

1/23/12 9:10pm

ToasterChive

Then we should shut down the V-ball program.
