I disagree. I'm not saying we should all hold hands and sing "Love at Home"

But the personal nature of some of our comments about Utah and their fans are disgusting and annoying. I just don't stand up for people making fun of others, regardless of what team they root for. I'm all about discussing the rivalry and SOME lighthearted, good natured ribbing perhaps. But many of our comments are out of line and just not funny at all. When you "toss it back" it just breeds it all and makes it worse.

I don't live in Utah. Portland, Oregon.

What a surprise! how are your ANTIFA buddies doing?

LDTemplar

Fighting the good fight I suppose. Suburbs don't see any of that action.

LiquidUte

Yeah, if you think antifa is fighting the good fight

I don't know much about them, but not a big fan of facisim.

Me too, that's why I don't like antifa - a rose (or turd) by any other name...

It was a comment made with a shrug. I'm not very familiar with the situation.

Go Blazers! At least I hope we can agree on one team

Nope, go Jazz 🙂 I'm sure I'll adopt them as a second team in time.

You should make this same post on a Ute fan site, that might care.

Richbyu

8/22/19 10:21am

So it is ok for Utes to stereotype a small sample - but not for Cougars. Gotcha.

crack

I was thinking the same thing. What an unintentionally ironic post.

Unintentional irony describes this guy’s whole presence here

Be careful on this point. We may look better than the U on income but..

8/22/19 11:05am

Are their fans on here talking a bunch of crap?

If you're referring to me, it's not talking crap,

Thank you for policing our fanbase. I suggest policing the west concourse

Let's hear more from enlighted Utah fans about those Zoobs, MLMs, repressed fans, and the Provo soak.

kccougar

“Swear.” “Watch Game of thrones?”

lilpenny

Read the linked threads.

You wouldn’t have to if you just left.

Natedog916

8/22/19 10:56am

Which people? All yewt fans?

Preppy

8/22/19 10:59am

The 95% of them that don't fit this stereotype that was linked.

LiquidUte

8/22/19 11:05am

So the other 51 weeks of the year when you are among your own fans you don't get triggered?

kccougar

8/22/19 11:07am

Yes.

LiquidUte

8/22/19 11:09am

Then you, Sir, are a hypocrite.

kccougar

If you go 51 weeks of the year without ever being triggered by mocking of BYU fans

kccougar

Dude, "love thy neighbor" does not mean "love ALL thy neighbor's behavior."

BleedCougarBlue2

8/22/19 11:17am

Not sure what measurements you're using, but the yewt fanbase is not 95%

cob

8/22/19 10:36am

I appreciate the broader perspective here.

LiquidUte

8/22/19 10:59am

I know I appreciate it that he is here policing BYU fans rather than posting something similar on Utah boards.

kccougar

8/22/19 11:03am

The Utah board I read doesn't have stuff like this about BYU fans. Utezone.

LiquidUte

8/22/19 11:09am

Maybe you should start a Ute board for Ute “fans”

Natedog916

I call BS on that one. I'm willing to bet that "every" legitimate Utah site...

"Talking Smack" and essentially calling another group filth are different levels

BYU I Bleed Blue

8/22/19 11:17am

Utezone is fantastic. It's a lot of analysis; won't appeal to the fan-hate crowd

LiquidUte

8/22/19 11:22am

It UteZone is so "fantastic" then why are you here?

BleedCougarBlue2

8/22/19 11:25am

Yea you're a regular Mother Theresa...

CoachSpeak

Wasn’t it a Utezone guy that started a rumor that ZW was with Pau’u?

puntersarepeople

8/22/19 3:07pm

Yes but apparently staring rumors to ruin guys careers is just “strategy”.

CoachSpeak

8/22/19 3:27pm

Nope it was the rivals board. Utezone is the 24/7 Sports community

BigT801

8/22/19 5:49pm

Ok that’s right

puntersarepeople

8/22/19 8:23pm

I’d absolutely say that in elder’s quorum. Especially with Utes.

8/22/19 11:18am

Here's the thing. Most BYU fans don't care if you drink alcohol, swear, etc.

HONOMO

8/22/19 12:24pm
