I cant believe we are late on our SMACK talk on the big game this weekend. How bad are the kitties going to beat the UTES? Does Utah even have a chance. Break out the coed jokes.
And put your score predictions here...
I will start with my wild guess. Utah 31 TDS 27 |

We're having a steak fry today for the employees, kind of a tailgate party.
I've got no predictions though. |

| Why do people call this a "Holy War" ? Yes, BYU is affiliated with the church..but the U isn't. Infact a large percentage of the U is LDS people. I can see if it was BYU vs Notre Dame..then you would have two religions facing off. :utes7: Anyway go Utes! |

I've had the same thought, I get tired of them calling it a holy war |

That's true about most of the students at the U are LDS, but all of the students are LDS at BYU. (I know there are exceptions, but they are less than one percent) So the holy war being raged is the same holy war that the LDS church has been raging from its inception... them verses the rest of the world. Though I don't think this is truly practiced by every LDS person out there, but to some degree it is and this dumbass game only fuels the stupid ass emotions.
I don't care less, I am with Jamis (never thought I would say that seriously) and won't be watching.

Actually, I think that the U, Weber State, and Utah State were all initiated by Brigham Young. Although there are different people that "directly" headed up the institutions, I think I read somewhere that they were under the direction of Brigham Young.
I don't think BYU was though, it may have just been named after him. I may be wrong on that one though.
This may be why it is called the Holy War. |

I'm still really steamed I can't drop the F word any time I want. Here are my list of grievances against this board:
1) My triple-deluxe avatar was fudged with, its size was a metaphor, if some of you couldn't see the humor then I dub you a Humorless F***
2) I got bitched out for saying f***, I mean hell, the little blond kid said f*** on Jerry McGuire its meant only as emphasis not as slang or as a sexual act
3) As related to point number two I feel my freedoms have been limited and in Internet space I truly believe there are no boundaries, its the spoils of the Internet, I'd like to be here, I'll make this place a 1000 times better but I come as a package, I need my freedoms, I won't post porn, filth, or anything which could be construed as evil but I will say f*** once in awhile |
