24: RES is actually repurposed as a 9 hole golf course and most participants’ golf scores were higher than the cumulative point total of the football team’s scores.

Not trying to hijack the thread…Excellent summary and I agree with your assessment, but a Star for referencing Chop Suey Luey’s. I used to love getting hot and sour soup and fried wontons between classes on cold winter days in the ‘90’s. I also loved the short lived China Star that Gastronomy started for a few years.

Not many people remember that John Elway was subpoenaed in the OJ Simpson trial. Why? Because he was named as the “Slow Moving White Bronco”😀

Side note on Divac: I worked for the Jazz in the mid ‘90’s. Divac used to smoke cigarettes at halftime in the Delta Center. A unique player!

….While wearing his TDS shirt…and the police booking agent purposely pulled back the camera to include the TDS shirt in the mugshot because he hates TDS (and he wasn’t a Ute fan BTW).

I’ve softened my bitterness on how he left, but I’ve kept my moniker since December 2004. We knew him directly because our kids were friends. The “lying” part involves a series of statements and commitments he made regarding “if you do X, then I guarantee I’ll remain at Utah.” Those donors immediately stepped up to hold up their end of the deal, but he didn’t honor his end of the deal (we’re talking multimillion dollar commitments at the time which was huge back then). Plus, there were a slew of promotional sponsor events he signed up for and then completely abandoned them without a single word of apology. Over time I’m not as bitter and I’d welcome his involvement back on campus but his explicit statements of commitment created craters of resentment that were unnecessary if he would have been a little bit better at communicating.

Hence my Moniker…

I think there was a band in the ‘70’s called Boobie and the Blockers…but I may be mistaken 😀

Monfort’s classic line at the first Crimson Collective event was funny: he said as the Owner of the Rockies he’s supporting the Utes’ Collective because “he finally wants to help fund a winning team”.
