    That's witty. I'm not drunk. Enjoy the board, and that wonderful, original, scintillating new name, sans SU, Senioritis, LA, Landpoke, UtahDay, DU, HotLunch, et al.

      I'm sorry you feel that way. And I mean that sincerely. But I find it hard to believe that the only reason you have stayed here is because the word 'ute' was slipped into the URL.

      The drunk post thing was because I thought "Disneyland abider" wouldn't be something you would likely say while sober. Guess I was wrong.
      PLesa excuse the tpyos.

        You are correct. It is not about the name. I've said the old name was inartful. I think no account Venkman summed it up with the notion that this board belongs to Lebowski,which is ridiculous. Too bad that the least of them here have now defined the board (after all, three out of every four even BYU fans don't approve of the name change). Why don't you just call it NeoCougarboard? And the EC can call itself the 12 for all I care.

          • I put the over/under at 5 days for someone dismissively pointing out that this is cougarstadium.com and if we don't like it we should go someplace else.

              • Maybe the new nickname for the board can be "Off the CUF"

                • To me, the name change is just another, albeit large, step in the direction that the board has been shifting ever since I found it, right before the Utes jumped to the P12.

                  Someone else called it and I agree: Cougarboard 2.0.

                  There really isn't anything to distinguish you from it now. The acceptance of Ute fans and progressive thinking is what kept the CB dregs away.

                  I'll still check in from time to time, but once nice thing about the internet, is that there is always some other site.

                    LOL. If you think this place is CB 2.0 then you probably should find someplace else to post.

                    Speaking of which I am not sure anybody here would begrudge you for starting up UteStadium.com. In fact, I am not sure why you guys feel like it has to be done through PMs. Unless you want to keep the launch from UF.N. I doubt I would visit such a site for reasons I have already articulated here, but I wish you guys the best in your venture and hope that some of my Ute friends still find time to visit here now and again. Best of luck.

                      Not yet. But it is trending that direction.

                      Your approval means so much to us. Thanks.

                      • The problem with the Board is that it's mindcrushingly boring, which is why the numbers are dwindling. Among the myriad problems are the endless threads about barely related subjects, leaving any newcomer completely in the dark.

                          This is silly talk. The only reason this board might change is if the people posting here change their posting habits. A simple name change doesn't change anything. Behavior changes things.

                          • And of course SU was and has been the best thing about the Board. With his posts dwindling, the writing is on the wall.

                            You really should just rename it: cougarmayonaise.com

                                You're not the first Ute to throw that jab since the name change. I think CB is the last thing anyone here wants this place to be. Frankly, I don't see it and it seems like nothing more than a cheap parting shot. But if you truly do feel that way, I'd appreciate it to know why so the EC could possibly address those things.
