It's great that national writers see Ute fans for what they are:

So much so that the same writer who started The Athletic...

DocPimp

8/13/19 12:45pm

I don't understand

YIsForBrigham

8/13/19 12:47pm

Stuart Mendel thinks so lowly of Ute fans

DocPimp

8/13/19 12:49pm

Once again has nothing to do with how pathetic your fanbase is

No BYU has a much bigger national fan base.

DocPimp

sadly agree with everything but your last sentence. and even that is true for

ColonelMustard

8/13/19 1:06pm

We have similar Ute fans unfortunately...

DocPimp

8/13/19 2:44pm

The obvious response to your last sentence: you are here.

First time I've ever heard UU compared to a 10/10 36-on-ACT person...

DraperCoug22

8/13/19 2:47pm

Funny you say 36 on Act because many Utah athletes in the past haven't qualified

BlueForLife

8/13/19 3:45pm

Non-Utahns don’t care about Utah. This is truth.

demon_llama

8/13/19 8:43pm

In P12 country they do. Conference affiliation and all.

DocPimp

8/13/19 11:21pm

haha ok.

I guess non-LDS people in the Independent conference

Why is the 10/10 36 ACT big brother on his 6 year old brothers board group?

JohnnyComeLately

8/13/19 11:51pm

No he is inferring that because Stu hired someone to cover the Ute beat and not

You had a good point until, "such as BYU." Come on, man. You're really calling

kos

one BYU as an athletic program is nationally relevant. Many top 25 rankings.

DJROSS

Me too 🙂

8/13/19 5:15pm

Prime example of my last sentence.

DocPimp

8/13/19 2:45pm

What does that have to do with your fanbase being pathetic??

TBabyCougs

8/13/19 12:50pm

See above.

DocPimp

8/13/19 12:59pm

Yeah, Utah has a .625 winning percentage over the last 3 years, not sure that's domination.

chago04

8/13/19 1:13pm

"National domination": Only in the minds of yewts.

BleedCougarBlue2

8/13/19 3:47pm

Well now you're just using hyperbole. 36 ACT at Utah? Not a chance

YIsForBrigham

8/13/19 1:15pm

He meant 3.6, Utes aren't good with numbers.

True. 35 ACT. We are too busy doing adult things with

This is absolutely one of the cringiest, most pathetic comments I've seen.

Naw bro we are forever rivals in the best rivalry in sports.

8/13/19 1:01pm

All Utah fans are “dumb Utah fans”

Does the Atlantic's Ute writer mention BYU in every article???

Richbyu

8/13/19 3:33pm

Ditto BYU. As evidenced by the gazillion Utah posts on here.

DocPimp

8/13/19 4:06pm

Pretty sure you don't see a lot of BYU fans on their board. Wait ...

Really don't care if they have a board or not. Wouldn't post there if they do.

ManicBlue

8/13/19 11:43pm

Where are all these BYU fans posting in the Ute board?

Richbyu

8/13/19 5:46pm

The vocal BYU-obsessed Ute fans on Twitter are giving their fanbase a bad name.

It’s all good. You were just honest enough to admit a missed post rather than double and triple down on it. To be fair,
