Okay I pretty much live and die by it. Most who know me are aware that I am a huge Utah fan. I was born and raised that way, and it has stuck with me. I do like to think of myself as an educated Ute fan. I am not homer. If <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">BYU</span> is better, etc... I am not afraid to say it. On that note my morning starts with a little routine of <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Internet</span> sites. I go to the same sites, in the same order pretty much every day. One of those sites is the Tribune. A nice thing about the digital age is peoples ability to post comments instantly. In the past couple of weeks I have come across two comments that have really made me think, did you really think that and then post it. They just so both happen to be about the Utah/<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">BYU</span> ongoing football debates. Here they are:<br /><br /><span style="color:#cc0000;">1. " Come on Ute Fans, be <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">positive</span>! It's like your setting yourself (AND YOUR TEAM) up for a loss! Get on the stick, be proud, and have some confidence! David slew Goliath, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">TCU</span> beat <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">BYU</span>, Boise State beat Oklahoma why can't Utah beat Alabama? Be Proud!"</span><br /><br />Did this man actually just compare <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">TCU</span> beating <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">BYU</span> to Boise State beating Oklahoma. Even worse did this moron just compare <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">TCU</span> beating <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">BYU</span> to David defeating Goliath. Enough said, I can't comment on this anymore.<br /><br /><span style="color:#cc0000;">2. "Well, as we say in the church, many are called but few are chosen. So the missionaries (football recruits who plan to go on a mission) who know what they are doing and make the RIGHT decision choose to play for <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">BYU</span>. "</span><br /><br />This comment has to do with football recruiting. I could break this down in so many ways. Comments like these are what piss the opposite fans of each team off (yea Utah has some <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">numb nut</span> fans too). Last time I checked 10% is 10% regardless of which team you cheer for. Furthermore, serving a mission (honorably) has nothing to do with which school you are going to play football at.

Tyler and Dylans blogs have convinced me otherwise. I always caught myself looking at others blogs but didnt laugh or enjoy them until Tyler and Dylan joined the vast unknown of blogging.<br /><br />I am opinionated and not afraid to state those opionions. I am dedicating this spot to my opinions and thoughts of others opinions, comments, and actions. Enjoy!!!Brian Williamshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08592937835362785334noreply@blogger.com3
