Ute fans are dumb

I challenge you to produce at least one person who can personally attest to that result. JUST ONE PERSON!

You all do! ME!

The best part is that it demonstrates how stupid they are about football.

Damn, this really hurts. I really wanted to be smart about football, but apparently, I am on the side that is dumb about it. Hard pill to swallow.

Wally, I love you man. I am so sorry that so many of your fellow fans are idiots. Hang in there.

You don't need to sugar-coat it bro. I researched it, and it turns out that sometimes dumb people like me can actually live fulfilling lives. I am choosing to look at the positives in this difficult time.

On a much more serious note, I want to be sensitive to the needs of by BYU friends, and need advice. I see the tremendous hurt that the "Fu__ the Mormons" chant at Cincinnati has caused. I assume that a more appropriate chant would be "Fu__ BYU" and keep it specifically targeted at the institution not the Religion. Is the latter okay? Alternately, I would appreciate guidance on what specifically we can chant about Fu__ing when playing you guys?

Also, what other topics are off-limits? I will get the word out about this to other Ute faithful.

Lol, Wally is a mormon.

FTR, this is not a new chant and doesn't bother me. I think its dumb, yes, but . This is the current equivalent of jokes about mormons having multiple wives.

Also, it is hilarious to see Wally ask what he "can chant about Fu__ing" next time the Cougs beat the Utes. You can't even use the fuck word right now, what makes you think you'll be able to chant it when you need it?

Yeah, Eff BYU is fine. Still a dumb, no-class thing to chant, but at least it isn't religious bigotry.

I had a sideline pass when BYU played at Utah in '76 and U students were yelling that during the game. They're simply continuing a rich tradition.

Yell what you want. I don't care. It's all dumb and shows very little ingenuity. But this woman has some ideas.

Wally, if you have any more questions like this that could be handled with a basic level of common sense, feel free to reach out again.

For the record, I am a "turn the other cheek" guy when it comes to stuff like this. But considering that the church donated 27000 lbs of food to the University of Cincinatti on-campus food bank last week and given the recent history of violence against an LDS church not too far from Cinci, this is a horrible look for the university.

If I ever find myself at Rice-Eccles for a Utes game, I'll be sure to chant 'Fu__ the __% of Utes who are Mormon!'

Hey bud, I know that you are one of the cool and 'edgy' BYU fans who don't care about this stuff and aren't even afraid to swear in semi-public settings. I will make a mental note that from this point forward, multiple wives are OFF the table. (I will admit, this one is gonna be hard for me to stop on the Utah side)
