There used to be two teams in the CFL called the Rough Riders at the same time.

Yeti gets polar opposite reactions. May win but with high unfavorable as well.

Tygger

Yeti seems to get by far the best reaction outside of CB and from national media

YIsForBrigham

10:52pm

Are they going to necessarily go with what the polling says? Or will they just

eysikal

10:41pm

Probably just using fan feedback as one data point.

BlooCoug

Let’s hope.

eysikal

This is first round of long process. They’re going to winnow down to 4-5.

Tygger

10:43pm

Yeti, Mammoth, Swarm, Canyons in no order.

Yetis sounds dumb. One of the positives for Yeti is how nice Utah Yeti sounds with the two words being such a close pair

Compared to Ice, Squall, Blast, Venom, Caribou, Fury, Canyons, Powder, Glacier…?

You conveniently left out the better, more popular options from the list.

Your Royal Blueness

Yeah. Said it was very far along in the process. Made it sound like an offered was eminent when BYU called.

I’m actually for not having a retractable roof.

Once we would get to June, Utah would have arguably the best baseball
