Yes. BYU football is part of my family culture, even if the theology were excised.

There's 117 other teams besides Utah I would root for first if for whatever reason I decided that I couldn't root for BYU anymore.

A couple of months ago, a lawsuit for false imprisonment, as a passenger is forced to stow away in the toilet while a flight attendant sits in the passenger's seat.

Now, allegations of sexual harassment? Passengers brawling mid-flight?

I am almost afraid to fly on their airplane this Thursday evening.

even worse, the eldest son is a divorced apostate.

I'm the only one here who regularly rattles YOhio and 3D.

Good question... I have too much money invested in BYU gear to ever switch to another team.

that's a start.

Why stop at 117? I'd become a Wofford Boston Terrier fan long before I'd become a byu fan.

Football doesn't exist below Div 1-A.

you are not a true fan.
would you drink a beverage with just a little whiskey in it?

Other than having attended BYU, and other than the LDS Church, I have no natural affiliation with the State of Utah. It's a beautiful state, mind you, but no reason to select another football program.

If BYU disbanded, my passion for college ball would be lessened. After that, I have no natural selection thereby probably selecting a team whose style of play appealed to me in any particular year, or to select the teams I liked in my youth before BYU.

But I would not ever be passionate about any other team, excepting somebody else ever connected me to another team.
