Colorado Fined for bWHYu Chants...

[McPeachy]

I call bullshit on this, and it pisses me off. The week prior, they chanted "FUCK WYOMING" all game, and nothing but crickets from the UW AD, Big 12, CU AD, etc.

But of course, then then momo's get their Jesus-Jammies in a bunch over the same chants basically, and now there are fines and public reprimands? Double standard, fuck you CU, fuck you Big 12, and a huge FUCK YOU to bWHYu.

Colorado fined over fans' anti-Mormon chants

The Big 12 Conference has fined Colorado $50,000 and publicly reprimanded the school after a derogatory chant from Buffaloes fans targeted The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints during Saturday's game against BYU.

I actually fell over laughing when I read about this the other day. My guess is that they (CU Admin & Big 12) were worried about any repercussions after what happened in Michigan when a guy rammed his truck into a Mormon Church killing 4 people I believe and setting fire to the building. The turd was killed by the cops btw.

This reminds me of something a little "off-color" I heard the other day that I thought was funny. I never heard it before but I am usually the last. Anyway, here goes...."you can't spell C***SUcker without CSU". Sorry.

You need to get out more. That saying is as old as dirt.

I sadly have to agree.

 

[Midwest Cowboy]

I definitely need to get out more. But most people in Wisconsin have no idea what CSU even stands for. None of my UW law school buds had heard the saying, so we are a sheltered bunch. Nonetheless, I still think its funny and I enjoy watching CSU go down the tubes.

What babies

Maybe my memory is faulty....I seem to remember this happening before but can't recall the specifics.

Ultimately this is unsurprising....I don't think admin or whomever likes it, but they aren't giving out fines for F-U CSU or BYU or whatever but if it's aimed at a religious groups or some broader identity group it's going to tighten some sphincters.

Predictable and unsurprising.

It's not the chants they are worried about. What they are worried about is any eventual acts of violence against a religion which I get but still...

I agree with the fine. Chanting against religions is wrong and hopefully at least a few of the offenders will think it through and understand.

But CU probably chants FU every school.

FU Byu would have passed without notice.... That's not what the fine was for

The fans at LES in Provo do NOT live by the code and they do everything to get under ur skin, trust I went once and I will never go back to a game at that cess pool and their phony p.o.s. fans!!! Provokistan sux!!!!

What did they say

 

[307bball]

What did they say

It was reported as "F___ the Mormons".

I wouldn't be sad if the "F - U ____" chants were just done away with personally. I love a good sports chant...particularly clever ones, but the FU chants are just crass and un-original. Then you stray into the targeting of identity groups and your going to upset folks.

I will be real curious to know what the BYU fans chant when and if Notre Dame ever plays in Provo. Given my experience as UW fan at some away BB games it won't be "welcome" or "nice to see you"

I can agree to an extent. The F-U CSU will never get old tho.

Insensitive chants at a college game? Hmm, never heard of that. Youth are just out of hand nowadays.
