Throughout this season I have had to defend my team at my place of work because I am surrounded by zoobie lovers. One most outspoken young man was Bradley, who even when things looked bad, claimed that BYU was going to beat Utah this year in the Holy War. So in the spirit of good humiliating fun, we made a bet that whoever's team lost must wear some apparel from the opposing team to work. We we all know who won so here is a pic of innocent little Bradley in his U of U beanie.
Oh how sweet. In keeping with the same theme, Wade found this great little Diddy in the SL Tribune yesterday. It is a fun little article poking fun at how lame the Bowl game is that BYU gets the privilege to attend (once again). And I quote...Location: Las Vegas; Expected opponent:
UCLA; Tickets: Still available
What makes game fun: Knowing Utah is still on quest for perfection
What makes location fun: For free, you can watch the Pirate of the Caribbean boat rise out of the water
Besides the game: You get to travel on Christmas Eve
Travel package: Stay at a friend's 3rd cousin once removed's house and sleep on air mattress for free. Bring a cooler full of peanut butter and jam. Don't forget your oversized man bag and faded blue blanket to sneak licorice into the stadium.
Getting there: Rent a 16-passenger van and split the cost between 20 people.
Total cost: $78.00."
HA HA. That is all so true. BYU fans come with $100 dollar bill in their pocket and they leave with it still there! Sorry to all my friends and family who happen to like BYU but ninner ninner suckas.

All I can say is YOU'RE SOOOO LAME!! I hope Alabama creamates the utes!!! Cremation is the process of reducing human remains to basic elements in the form
of bone fragments through flame, heat, and vaporization. ...
just in case you didn't know :)

Responding to your comment. I am quite familiar with what a cremation is since I have witnessed several. I believe that obliteration would be a good term to describe what Utah did to BYU. Can you say 5 interceptions??? Has the lord reincarnated your team yet or did they forget to pay their tithing? (bring on the trash talk sista, I can dish it right back)
You may be right that Utah will not have their MVP playing (Max Hall) in the Sugar Bowl. They won't get off that easy. But since you have a blog post specific to the Utes....I couldn't resist. So here's a post from your favorite neighbor to you and all the loyal fans.
Let me use a strong parallel between the “running Ute fans” and their “running bar tab”. They have have been flying high in their drunken stupor defying that the bar is closing and the tab is due. The bouncer (Alabama) waits impatiently to provide a much needed reality check to a slurring falling Ute. And as the brutal tide crashes in on Jan 2nd, the only thing left the next morning will be a washed up Ute with a bleeding hangover and a pounding headache. They will have the thoughts running like a broken record of, “what were we thinking?” But as most alcoholics this will wear off and denial will kick in. Because the Utes will never take the first step and realize they have a problem. They lack a team that has any chance to play against a giant like Alabama. But hey, at least the Utes can go back to the bar with the Hawaii fans. As the old adage goes "Misery loves company". It will be like a rerun from last year’s Sugar bowl. The Salt Lake Tribune puts the Utes in check the best….. “With every wish, there comes a curse.”
Enjoy the game ~ Ryan
I realize I'm not part of this family or neighborhood however I can't resist.
Ryan you are the typical ignorant BYU fan that can't give credit where credit is due. You're still living in 1984 like all BYU fans and can't except that the Utes are now going to the BCS for the second time in five years. Trust me you can only replace that 1984 banner so many times. You blame your own QB (the QB you were pumping up for Heisman) for the loss and refuse to except that the Utes defense caused those INT's and should have had 3 more.
Also please for the love of god quit trying to bash the Ute fan for drinking it's just so typical for a BYU fan and really makes you all look so ignorant. Do I really need to remind you of the number of Prophets that graduated from Utah?
Now admit it your just jealous and can't stand that those pathetic Cougars will never return to those so called glory years. Why don't you just head back down to Vegas for what is it the 15th straight year and enjoy a BIG ICY CAFFEINE FREE COKE for all of us.
One last thing I can't wait to see what you have to say after the Utes win the Sugar Bowl, let me guess Alabama stayed out all night on New Years drinking and were to hung over to play.
Jason...so weak. Not even noteworthy to rebuttal.
I beg to differ. The only thing that would stun you into silence is something so earth shattering that you could not possibly come up with a rebuttal. That's what an education at BYU does to you. Too many religion classes, not enough academic ones. I'm proud to have Jason, whoever he is, on my side!
Well it is difficult for me to relate to to any of your posts for several reasons. First, I didn't graduate from BYU and have never taken a religion class in my life. Judging and ignorance seems to drive the UTE's prideful insecurities. As my favorite neighbor knows that I am NOTHING of the stereo typical BYU fan as Jason desperately wants to depict. My analogy was simply to portray that the Utes and their fans are in a drunken stupor. Sorry to burst your "ignorant" balloon, although I do appreciate you representing your narrow-minded UTE fan base. When I am in Vegas watching my team win, I can guarantee the last thing I will be driving is a 15 passenger van drinking my "BIG ICY CAFFEINE FREE COKE". I haven't heard of any Ute fans going to the Sugar Bowl? Way to support your team from your couch and TV. If you are going, good for you, they will need all the support they can get after being mutilated.
Secondly, I really don't care how many prophets graduated from Utah. I thought we were talking football? How about how many Quarterbacks went Pro, won the Heisman, and went to the Hall of Fame? There are stunning success stories from BYU's extremely powerful Alumni.
It was nice of Urban Myer to bring his talent to Utah and create a decent team for the first time in it's entire pathetic football history. Interesting how quickly he ran away to coach a real team that happens to be going to the national championship game this year.
The true test will be next year when we see Kyle Wittingham is unable to ride on Urban Myer's coat tails of recruits anymore. They should go back to the same old Utah team that didn't go to a bowl game for 28 straight years. Normalcy will be back in 2009 starting on Jan 2nd. So we can all agree that Urban Myer's short run is the only reason the Utes have had ANY success. This will be the last year of the Utes. Alabama will be a terrifying reminder to all Ute fans defining who their team really is.
Ouch! Anger management issues. By the way, we are supporting our team as we did in 2004 when 7 of us wend to AZ. Due to harsh times, we can only afford to send 2 family members this year, as airfare to New Orleans is $500 a pop and tickets are $150+. Have fun at you're game, and we'll have fun at ours. We'll compare notes afterwards!
Not angry at all! This is just fun! I get a little passionate about football. And LOVE trash talking the Utes. Enjoy your game! (Between you and I, I secretly hope they do win, it will be great for our conference. But don't tell anyone) But don't expect the trash talk to go weak...like Jason! LOL
OUCH!! My ass hurts so bad from kicking it so hard after last night's game!! "Hall" has became a new four letter word in my vocabulary.
Trash talk away "sista"...I won't even rebuttal you. (this time) LOL.
Eating crow is an acquired taste that I am becoming accustomed too. Congrats to your team! WOW!
