There are a few teams that don't have dorky fans, but they don't win very much. There is a correlation between winning % and dickheads in fan base. BYU's winning is bringing more and more dickheads out of the woodwork. The way to deal with it is to visit Utefans as frequently as you visit cougarboard. Cougarboard has more and the manner in which it drives sensible people away it is getting a higher percentage, but if you to Utefans there is a core group of assholeye there as well.

So if you really want a dickheadless fanbase you could root for Army. We did beat Rhode Island this year! WOOOOOOOOO!

Even with the "dumming down" (my opinion) that has occured on CB, it still on a percentage basis has far fewer knotheads. "That knothead" was a term my Dad always used when I was a kid. I knew what he meant, he was calling the person an asshole.

One suggestion would be to stop reading those websites. That way they won't bother you. I know this concept is very alien to many here, but give it a try.

Now come in off the ledge. I just made some nice warm churros.

Why on earth do you continue to read the blather on CB and TBS?

Stay away from campus. Seeing BYU students in person might push you off the edge. Calling them dorks would be kind. They need to relax the admission standards so some normal people can go there.

Maybe it's me but I have started to notice an uglying of the female student body slowly over the past decade. Is this accurate?

TBS has some really good stuff and interviews. They had an interview with Pittman and Brooks that I enjoyed quite a bit. I don't know what is going on, but there are actually some posters on there that challenge the lala land posters now and then.

If you have the time and I do, CB can be entertaining.

I agree with this. Winning brings out the idiots. I have a hard time dealing with far too many of the zoots on utefans. To be honest, that board was a lot more fun when McBride was coach, as the true Ute fans were there and just had fun with what would happen, win or lose.

The % of idiots fans of both BYU and Utah are equal. BYU just has more fans so they have a larger number of idiots.

That said, anytime you want to join us on the good side, you'd be more than welcome.

LOL. I've felt the same way about Ute fans.
