Cougar Board...

I may be the minority on this but I appreciate the effort to not over generalize and keep it to football.

Religious bigotry is not a sports topic and should not be in a sports forum. It's disrespectful to our own fan base who are members of a given faith.

Also I think it's fair for them to not over generalize our entire fan base as a bunch of degenerates.

Cougar Board sucks. I am a Cougar fan and I am excited to play Wyoming. I miss the rivalries with UW, CSU, SDSU, and Air Force. I have had season tickets to the Y for the past 25 years. I know most Wyoming fans would prefer not to play BYU but I would love to see Wyoming on the schedule. Anyways, Good Luck and hopefully BYU wins.

Faith is a choice.
 
I don't know sometimes I feel that Mormon fans at Wyoming pull their religion into the fandom. While I was a student, byu was a conference member. I saw plenty of fans wear lds cowboys gear. Maybe this was caused by being a vocal minority in the state and wanting to show something. I don't recall a catholic or Protestant cowboy group that organized fan gear to wear to games. I regret bashing Mormons per se but I always felt ( and still do) that it is fair to poke fun at the Idiosyncratic and often gonzo beliefs, much in the same as it is funny to poke fun at the partying habits of the typical despicable Wyoming fan. Not to mention that byu had racist beliefs for much of their history, they should feel lucky that magic underwear and the 26 year old freshmen players draw much of the attention of opposing fandoms. Should all be in good fun, PC beliefs make the world worse sometimes.

You're probably right. ALL religions looks pretty stupid to those who aren't adherents, and it's easy to find ridiculous beliefs in every religion.

And if you can't stand being taunted about your beliefs, maybe you should ask yourself if your beliefs are worth having and if your faith is strong enough.

Its easy to find ridiculous beliefs in just about anything. Hell, when I played football, I refused to wash the tshirt underneath my shoulder pads during the season.

It's everywhere. Religion. Politics. Charities. Health. Technology. It's human nature.

Malice towards a person or group of people shouldn't be tolerated, period. I don't consider a taunting malice though. I'm sure it crosses a line somewhere - but that line is really up to the individuals involved.
 
I almost think the MWCBoard has gone Cougar. I just got banned from the MWC Board for linking Goatse when some Borg dickhead kept going on about The Project.
It's good to be here. I should have migrated here a long time ago.
 
And the fact that they think we're proud of him proves they know nothing about us. Can't the CJC just write him a check or something and tell him to go away? Or maybe we could give his address to a frat in Fort Collins and have them steal the barrel.

Yeah. That toolshed ECA didn't even give me a warning. I got a 1 day ban for that.

I'm done over there I think.

He also doesnt stay impartial like a mod should. If you want to talk trash to other posters all the time then don't be a mod.

Yeah exactly. I was pretty shocked to see I had a ban. That dude isn't as bad as Andre or something, but he's up there. If he'd asked me to take down Goatse or something, I would have. But a ban? Dude must be pissed over something else I said on there. Smells like a grudge.
Oh well. It's becoming more and more a BYU enclave anyway. I'd just as soon stay away from it.

They will leave after the bowl game.
 
There is several years of pent up angst, that is all coming out at once. This is why I didn't want to play BYU in a bowl game. They can wallow around in the obscurity of independence for all I care.

Yeah its nasty. They are as insecure as ever. I like playing CSU every year. Its a fun rivalry. They are jackasses. We probably are too.

BYU though - you can call it a rivalry if you like - but I prefer to think of them as a bunch of back stabbing wannabe whiners. Nobody should play them. They break the rules frequently in football. They like tripping, clipping, holding, and they do it pretty well. Sometimes they will literally punch you in the nuts (I need to look up the link and show it).

They have players go on missions and come back. They have 2-3 years on any team out there. Its stupid.
