Utah vs. Boise State - Back To The Mtn.

[TripletDaddy]

How about a BYU loss thread where I show up at all?

Why does it have to be a thread about a loss?

Also, when did you change your sig line? What was the quote that used to be there until recently? I believe it was one of your own, no?

[Flattop]

Actually, I don't think Krystko tried his best in this one.

Wait . . . what?

Sorry, I will add the next time.

Why should it be a thread about a win when I am talking about schadenfreude, which is about joy in the misfortunes of others? What have you noticed about my sig line? Why do you pay attention to such minutiae? Why do you care?

I try not to gloat or tease or do anything obnoxious here on CUF when BYU fans are justifiably feeling rotten because something has gone badly for them. If you guys think I am not doing that well enough, I'll try harder.

I use the same approach. If, in my own personal opinion and judgment, someone else might have reason to feel bad, then I reserve the right to exhibit restraint. That is a case-by-case basis and entirely up to me, however. And I think I have a pretty good track record in those specific instances. Most will attest to this.

I agree. That's what I've observed in you, anyway. I hope you didn't think I was saying anything about you. I was talking about my own plans to try harder.

I seem to recall a Utah State thread recently....a win...in which many people must have misinterpreted your fun-loving post.

I pay attention to everything. The devil is in the details. What did your sig line say before you deleted it? What was the quote? And whom were you quoting?

I made up a self-deprecating quote from myself, something about promising not to be a jerk about the rivalry. I really liked the "Man for All Seasons" bit that I added, and it was long, so I decided to drop the other quote so my signature section did not go on forever. This is not the first time I have edited my signature line, but I am glad you pay attention.

[Edit: If you take a look at that USU thread you'll see lots of highly esteemed BYU fans saying that those who were offended by my post were over-sensitive. No jury would ever convict me of being out of line with that one.]

If you want anything more out of me on this you're going to have to ask DHole to subpoena me to a deposition.

I'm not sure that would have helped.

I guess you guys can enjoy this while it lasts. I would be enjoying it, if the tables were turned. I'd probably do that privately, but that's just me.

Sooner or later (I'm hoping sooner) Utah basketball will arise from the ashes.

I don't enjoy it when Utah loses or is sucky.

I do enjoy it when BYU wins - so I guess I have to add that little caveat for when BYU plays Utah.

Mostly I like the fact that when Utah loses, the dickhead Utah fans I know tend to leave me alone. But I want it to be clear that it is being left alone by dickhead fans that I enjoy, not the fact that Utah lost. (I suppose I should also clarify that not all Utah fans are dickheads. It is only the dickhead fans I am referring to.)

Honestly I'm not sure how they keep coming up with the players they do but I don't see a huge drop off after Moore. They have a bunch of skill players that are good and young. The biggest difference I see this year compared to last year is in their D line. An LSU or Alabama could run all day on them but I also think they could put more than 6 or 9 points on each one of them. It's a small miracle what they have accomplished this past seven or eight years.

It seems like Boise State fans want to tout their QB recuit Nick Patti as the next Kellen Moore.

I think Joe Southwick takes over next year.

Patti is being compared to Moore because he is tiny and fast. 5'11 180 runs a 4.5.

I actually think Laughrea and Hedrick are better prospects.

I've seen Joe Southwick play in garbage time, doesn't strike as being that impressive. I've heard that Hedrick has a better chance of starting than Southwick.

I'm sure that we can all appreciate being left alone by dickheads.

Over hype (Heaps) is not limited to BSU fans. They do have a lot of talent around whoever starts next year.
