Today at work and the things I am reading on the internet reminds me why so many BYU fans irritate me so much. You would think that BYU had just cracked the top 5 in the polls after beating UNLV by 2 points last night. One BYU fan told me today that Cleveland will never lose to Utah again as long as he is the BYU coach. The sad thing is that he was not kidding. He was very serious.

A note to BYU fans.

1. BYU has NOT proven anything yet in basketball. Be careful what you say.

2. Remember what you were saying threen months ago before the Virginia football game, "BYU is a shoe in BCS team." What was the eventual outcome? We they even rated when the season was over? How good were they really?

3. If Lyday is the MVP of the MWC then I guess Ahltof is an All MWC player based of his game last night. Can't beat 8 for 8 form the field and 4 for 4 from the line. I guess this compares with Feterik and the Heisman. Shoot, I can't remember - how many votes did he get?

4. BYU fans remember the old saying "Don't count your chickens before they are hatched."

Many (not all) BYU fans are talking smack without having done anything. This is why BYU fans get under my skin. When BYU wins the conference and gets a top 4 seed in the NCAA - then talk.

Bytheway, Greg Wrubel from KSL: BYU is not in the top 25 because they do not deserve to be there. Stop crying and wait until your team has done something. Louisville deserves to be a top 25 team and they ar not.

Who knows - BYU may end up beating the Utes this week and winning the conference. Why can't you wait until that happens before you talk!!!!

I hope BYU loses every game from this point on in the season!!!

Yew know why I hate Yootz, for the same reason Yew hate Cougs.

Yesterday a Yewt came up to me and said Majoras was the best coach ever to coach...ever! Also another thought they could beat the Jazz this year...AND HE WAS SERIOUS!

This is why Yew can't take any Yewties seriously! I guess when Yew count Vegas as "traveling the world" you get a sense of Myopia that exists on the hill.

You have a common disease that runs all through Yewtdum. Hypocritical Myopia!

When Yewtah wins the conference and gets a top 4 seed in the NCAA - then talk. If I am not mistaken, Yewtah only did that one time and that was a few years ago. I don't think this team has earned that kind of smack any more that this years BYU squad.

I invite all of you Yewties to go to Cougartalk and show me smack that even compares to this board! I have yet to see a post that mindlessly guarntees a huge victory for BYU. Sure you may find one idiot out there, but I could choose several on this board alone.

For your information UNLV is not North Carolina, nor did BYU claim they were! It was a big win for BYU on the road against a good team. I think even the mighty Yoots will be grateful for a win there. Even if you aren't, it is still a big win for BYU.

I only hope your team looks at BYU the same way many of you do. We are much improved and could beat you this year. Am I predicting a win, no. We are not deep or consistant enough. In fact a blowout is possible.

But, many of Yew Yoots have a lot of smack to back up over this next season! I guarantee, if you don't win like Yew talk, you deserve all the facials you will undoubtedly get.

Yew don't look nearly as impressive as in years past, and Yew will be exposed this year. I only hope you can take as much as you dish out!

Well, actually the offical record shows the Utes have never had less than a #4 seed in *any* of the last 6 years. The official record is...

1995
-----
* WAC League Champions
* WAC Tournament Champions
* NCAA seed of #4 - out in second round

1996
-----
* WAC League Champions
* WAC Tournament Finals (lost to New Mexico in the Pit)
* NCAA seed of #4 - Run to sweet 16

1997
-----
* WAC Mtn. Division Champions
* WAC Tournament/League Champions
* NCAA seed of #2 - Run to final 8

1998
-----
* WAC Mtn. Division Champions
* WAC Tournament loss in first round (to host UNLV)
* NCAA seed of #3 - Run to NCAA Finals

Last Year
---------
* WAC Pac. Division Champions (undefeated)
* WAC Tournament/League Champions
* NCAA seed of #2 - out in second round (year of many upsets)

So, according to your definition, I guess we have "room to talk," eh? But all I'll say is...

-- GO UTES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
