If JL wants to over time transition this to a BYU site that is fine, it is his site and he has every right. However, I'm definitely disappointed in this move. It won't change the site now, but it will over time.
    Gotta agree with mpfunk, especially the bolded part. The new URL makes it look like an imitation of, well, you know. But verily The Dude Abides and in him have I placed my trust.

      This post reminds me of all the Radiohead fans that were waiting for more music after the release of TKoL. They looked for clues in the album artwork, in the lyrics, in the music, convincing themselves that there had to be more than 8 tracks (some of them a bit mediocre for Radiohead).

      In the end, TKoL was all there was.

        I don't get the claims that the TKoL was a mediocre Radiohead album. I actually really liked it. I'd rather listen to TKoL than OK Computer.

          This post makes me glad for the board name change. Blasphemy!

            Maybe that was a reason for the change.

              I love all the whining about a board name like somehow this will drastically change lives.

              Not surprised about the bitching it seems the majority on here are not happy unless they have something to complain about. This just adds fuel to the fire, maybe it will take the heat off JS for awhile. Lebowski is doing a good thing for the church.

                    Not sure I like the slight to Ute fans, but the name in general is better than CougarUteForum. My .02.

                      Can we change the name to CougarLonghornForum.com now?

                        A neutral field may have made more sense and everyday would feel like a bowl game. How about SamBoydStadium.com.

                          Clearly we should settle on an acronym, then find a name that fits the acronym.

                              So how am I going to refer to this community now? Before, I just told my wife about things I read on 'the forum'. Now what? The stadium? The site formerly known as the forum???

                              Eh, whatevs.
