SkinyUte replied to the topic I'm troubled by a lot of the responses I'm seeing to the Scalley situation in the forum Football 4 years, 5 months ago
The amazing thing to me is the number of people who are willing to defend Scslley with “as if you’ve never said anything like this before”.
Look, I’ve said lots of stupid things before, things that I wish I could immediately take back the moment I said them. But the N-word? I can very confidently say that word has never once passed my lips.…[Read more]

It not a good look for our majority white fan base to react by telling the African American community and players there is an expiration date to the pain they can feel or a certain number of instances needed to clear some make-believe bar to become problematic.
Well said.
I really hope that minority recruits aren’t keeping too close an eye on…[Read more]

SkinyUte replied to the topic Morgan Scalley suspended for supposedly racist tweet from 2013. in the forum Football 4 years, 5 months ago
I’ll wait to judge or defend until more info comes out (I.e. pattern of behavior, what was actually said, etc). I’d like to think that this was an isolated incident that was a simple monumental lapse of judgement, but I have no idea at this point…and neither do you.
I fear the damage may already be done though. If you’re a minority recru…[Read more]

SkinyUte replied to the topic Any other post-grunge melodic rock fans in here besides me? in the forum Misc 4 years, 6 months ago
The thing that’s hilarious is watching them live… they headbang, wear the whole spikes, etc. thing as if they were a death metal band.
Huh? I’ve seen Katatonia twice (at metal festivals) and didn’t notice any spikes, corpse paint, fake blood, or any of the other usual death metal accouterments. I just kinda thought they were boring, tbh. Tha…[Read more]

SkinyUte replied to the topic Any other post-grunge melodic rock fans in here besides me? in the forum Misc 4 years, 6 months ago
I loved Opeth back when the were an actual metal band. In fact, I’d put “Ghost Reveries” in my personal top 10 albums of all time. Their recent shift to prog…not so much.
Never cared much for Katatonia.
I typically skew more toward the heavier death metal end of the spectrum. Entombed, Behemoth, Death, Sigh, Obituary, Morbid Angel, Senti…[Read more]

SkinyUte replied to the topic Any other post-grunge melodic rock fans in here besides me? in the forum Misc 4 years, 6 months ago
All far too mellow for my tastes, but I did have a funny interaction yesterday that kinda relates.
A co-worker of mine knows that I listen to heavier music (she’s a country fan). She was so excited to forward me a YouTube clip, letting me know that she had “finally found a ‘death metal’ song that she liked”, and was wondering if I had heard of…[Read more]

Dollars and eyeballs, man.
Sucks, but that’s the way of the college football world.

SkinyUte replied to the topic Cotton Bowl Chances in the forum Football 4 years, 11 months ago
I’m guessing we drop a lot lower than 10. I’d be surprised if we were higher than 13.

SkinyUte replied to the topic I really thought Utes were going to comeback in the 3rd in the forum Football 4 years, 11 months ago
Going for it on 4th and 2 at midfield was the turning point. If we had gotten that and extended that drive, it could have been a different game.
Sadly, we didn’t and it wasn’t.

SkinyUte replied to the topic Bowl Game in the forum Football 4 years, 11 months ago
It’d be disappointing, but I wouldn’t blame the NFL-bound guys a bit. Why risk millions of dollars (in Moss, Anae, Jaylon, and Leki’s case) to play in a bowl game that means very little in the grand scheme of things?
I don’t see why Huntley would sit though. He still likely has something to prove to NFL scouts that he can play at the next level.

SkinyUte replied to the topic Recruiting difference in the forum Football 4 years, 11 months ago
The same can be said about all but around 15-20 programs in the country.
The reality is that there are a small handful of teams that will continue to get the best players, regardless of anything Utah does. We – and most other teams – need to develop lower star players into studs, something we have traditionally been very good at.
The idea…[Read more]

I ventured over to CB. 7 of the 10 topics on the front page are about Utah.

I tend to agree, especially given the likely weather conditions (soggy, rainy, and cold-ish)

SkinyUte started the topic Stupid Oregon in the forum Football 4 years, 11 months ago
I’m still pissed Oregon lost to ASU. If they hadn’t, the P12 title game this week would be a de facto CFP quarterfinal, and no one would even be talking about Oklahoma passing the winner.
I want to crush them by 30, just for that fact alone. -
SkinyUte replied to the topic These refs in the forum Football 4 years, 11 months ago
That double off-sides on the first quarter punt was pretty ridiculous as well.

Bummer, that’s what I was afraid of.
Thanks for the update OnlyU

What’s Thompson’s status today? He looked to be in bad shape last week, but I haven’t heard how that’s progressed.

Posted by that dude this morning.
I live in Utah. But the Yewniversity of Yewtah is different and we don’t claim it. If you spent any time around Yewt fans you’d know why. They show up drunk to the games and make fun of religion. Even the few decent Yewt fans that exist have written about how classless that fan base is. Trust me. They threw beer…

Agreed, that HAS to be a Utah fan doing some trolling. There’s no way that dude is for real.
Very funny either way though.
