Wake up, it’s not 1984

How sweet it is. Those of us who have been Utah football fans since the dark days (read: pre-McBride era) are relishing just a bit more in the Utes' remarkable season. As a child, I was an unlucky acquaintance of a ton of annoying, die-hard BYU fans.

One would think there's nothing smokers could process that would leave them at all inclined to puff their lives away.

U have been warned

November 18, 2004

The competition between the two universities looms like a dark cloud overhead. Everyone has an opinion on his or her red or blue team of choice. The rivalry is up there with all the big ones-good vs. evil, Luke vs. Vader, GW vs. Terrorism. The rivalry between the two establishments goes back to 1896 when the two football teams first met on the playing field.

I say, ‘Screw football’

Saturday is the highest rite of devotion to what some call the "sacred lozenge." For those unaware of periodic commuter jams around the U on some Friday and Saturday nights, this will be our last and most prolific. Officials plan to monitor volume levels on behalf of local residents with the quaint notion that institutions of higher learning ought to obey the same noise ordinances as fraternities.
