I voted Riley Nelson. Watching the meltdown of the last three years has been epic. Throw in the advent of "The Riley Rule" which keeps well intentioned Mission President's at bay.
Pure gold.
Pure gold.

I voted the Pac 12 fiasco- it's been pretty shamefully gleeful watching the Utes squirm on the altar as they get filleted week after week."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch! I'll make his whole brand go under," -

Where is the option for the Runnin' Utes 5 year debacle?Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

On the BYU side, gotta say watching Utah football fall on its face in the P12 or Utah basketball fall on its face against any conference. I decided we'll know when Utah football is up on its feet in its new conference -- when the school becomes its identity again instead of the conference. I was in the UW bookstore the other day and you know how many pieces of UW gear I saw with a P12 logo sprayed all over it? Not a single one. Utes will start acting like they belong when they actually belong, and this will be the sign, you watch.
On the Utah side, yeah, quite a few to choose from. Riley Nelson is a good option. What a disaster that whole thing has been.Last edited by MarkGrace; 11-27-2012, 05:20 PM.So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.Comment

I voted for the Riley Nelson Saga, mainly becasue the wound is so fresh. But I am literally LOL'ing at how many good options there are (both in the poll and left out). Maybe we should name this board fansofmisfitsforum.com"It's true that everything happens for a reason. Just remember that sometimes that reason is that you did something really, really, stupid."Comment

You nailed the identity thing cold. We had the PAC 12 logo on the front doors of Olpin in a faux frosted glass look ... this summer, or 24 months after the initial announcement.Originally posted by MarkGrace View PostComment

I voted for Heaps, but only because November Scheduling wasn't an option, although I suppose that could fall under Independence. Anyway, it appears that will be less of a schadenfreude giving thing in the years to come anywayOriginally posted by Jarid in Cedar View PostComment

Playing Wisconsin, Notre Dame, and Boise State in November will provide you plenty of Shadenfreude opportunities, I assure you.Originally posted by Top Ute View Postτὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσινComment

This thread sucks. The poll sucks. Everything about it sucks. Ute fans can gloat all they want. The truth is they can throw darts blindfolded and find something to laugh about. Even after Jaime Hill, Robert Anae, and Patrick Higgins our coaching staff is still having problems. Independence has turned out to be a mess, largely due to our inability to win any game of consequence. The rivalry is dead and BYU is the one who has to beg to keep it alive. Our QB situation has been a mess since Max Hall made his famous declaration. BYU isn't a natural fit for any conference of consequence that would have them. The world has turned and left us here.

agreed, there just aren't really many options for BYU fans there. The only one that could be pro-BYU is the PAC-12 option, but even that falls short because any BYU fan would trade places with them in a heartbeat.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostWho know JIC could be so cold-hearted?Dio perdona tante cose per un’opera di misericordia
