Utah cancelling series vs BYU thread

[creekster]

This reminds me of when Stanford rugby cancelled its match with Cal rugby writing that they did so for fear of injury to the Stanford players. Yes, this happened. Yes, it was in writing. and, yes, everyone still remembers.

Stanford has a rugby team?

Hill said they will look at revisiting the rivalry sometime in the future.

I like what Rose said, to paraphrase, it will be in Provo and the buyout will be much larger since Coach K is a pussy and the Utes have no integrity.

Oh, so he thinks we're just waiting around at his beckon call? I can't stand Chris Hill. What a bitch.

The news was one of three or four bullet points on the ESPN radio national feed coming out/going into the commercial break. Right after the news about Sean Payton staying in New Orleans and the HoF voting. It's a regular season college basketball game, but it still is a noteworthy story because it's so unusual, stupid and craven.

I'll take clueless and bad at everything over being a misogynistic, bigoted, and elitist asshole.

Haha.

So, you're happy with simply being an elitist asshole? Still an asshole.

if there's one thing funk is not, it's elitist.

When the powers that be find a way to match up Utah and BYU in the tournament next year, we will beat you just like we did in football. I'm guessing that BYU will be in the 11 play-in game and and playing the 6-seed Utes if they win.

We still get scoreboard. You still haven't beat us and won't beat us.

Unlike the fake "Doctor" on the hill, Tom H has some integrity and won't use his position on the committee to take it out on U come selection time.

Coach K is such a opportunistic pussy.

I almost feel bad for Ute fans who really have no history of backing down from a fight but now having to suffer from such an ignominious excuse for cancelling. Their coach just handed BYU fans beautiful smack fuel wrapped up in a bow. We havent won for years in football? At least we're not pussies. We haven't won for years in basketball? At least we're not pussies. We haven't won for years in volleyball? No, wait a minute. But we're still not pussies.

krystko has openly talked a bunch of shit and taunted emery during the game. utes, is it really going to take whitt bouncing to get rid of chris hill? what a smug turd.

I think Krystko's behavior during and after that game is as much behind this as Utah just being opportunistic. He didn't handle himself well and he knows it.

Bill Walton weighs in on the Utes turning tail and running away. It appears the national media has consensus that the Utes are cowards.

Guys, I just got off the phone with Larry and Chris. I took it on myself to undertake to represent you all and to try to change their minds because my progressive Mormon friends are so upset about this. I think we have a deal you guys can support. Utah will reinstate the series on two conditions: 1) BYU has to apologize to the aforediscussed peoples it has oppressed in a mutually agreeable form; and 2) the game must be played annually on Sundays. Not much to ask, is it. No need to thank me. I look forward to BYU's reasoned response.
