1. Congratulations on having a son/daughter playing for BYU. I am sure you are a proud parent!
2. This is a message board for fans. You do know what "fan" is short for, right? It's unfortunate that some ignorant/insensitive comments are made by some fans but this board is leaps and bounds cleaner than most other college fan boards. If you want to see a truly disgusting fan board go check out utefans.net.
3. Racism is a little too strong a word to use here. We throw that word around much too easily these days. Have there been some ignorant/insensitive comments made about certain racial or cultural groups on this board? Yes, unfortunately. But I have not seen anything that I would call outright racist, and if there has been I am sure that it was quickly deleted by mods, and would be denounced by 99.9% of the rest of the board.
4. By saying that TFD "spent more time hunting then in the office at the end of his employment" aren't you guilty of spreading the same kind of "hearsay" that you are objecting to from others?
