Your vigor to defend UNLV is admirable though. Carry on.... I'm not defending UNLV lol. All I did was point out the facts. UNLV was garbage this year. There is no denying that. It's just cute how you have to resort to bringing up other programs failings' to make yourself feel better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rice was fired January 10, 2016--how long are UNLV fans going to blame him for their crappy season? That's what i typed. Some reading comprehension would be nice. It's cause and effect. You can deny it all you want. It seems like you are pretty good with the denial part in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, no defense, and guys throwing up wild three point shots. This is how BYU played all year coincidentally. I wouldn't be surprised if Mormon Church Basketball is popular throughout Wyoming. Wyoming people love playing basketball, from my experience. I'm surprised you guys never played Church Basketball at a Mormon Church before. It is probably popular among the Mormons, but not among the "Gentiles". It's probably the ingrained, sickly-sweet smell of Jello and Funeral Potatoes combined with old sweat... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fido Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 It's always funny to read the funeral potatoes and green jello comments--but I couldn't tell you the last time I've eaten either one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely. Harmon's makes a good one in their deli. Fry sauce? Yep--my favorite is made with bbq sauce instead of ketchup. Pastrami burgers and scones, you bet. Still can't say I've had funeral potatoes lately--if it is served at some function I'd grab something else since it is never the only choice. The green jello with fruit in it? Haven't seen that in a really, really long time. It might be a hit with kids, but I don't cook for them much these days since mine are grown and gone--but we never really made it when they were home either. In fact, here is an interesting read on the jello-Utah connection and it's origins in a marketing campaign to try and boost lagging sales. http://www.slate.com/articles/life/food/2012/08/jell_o_and_mormonism_the_stereotype_s_surprising_origins_.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grad transfer L.J. Rose had a meniscus tear in early February. Bryant had his knee injury right before the NIT. It left the team not very deep and they had to play the Lone Peak chuckers much more than any of us wanted. How are all those 5-star UNLV recruits working out for you? Let me know when your 5-star squad doesn't finish in last place in the MWC. It must really suck to suck at both football AND basketball, huh. Classless response as would be expected. I stand by what I said. When are you going to compliment the team that whooped your ass in your own house? Please give us more excuses. And, when you get a chance to tell us about 5 star recruits we have. I wasn't aware we had any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't aware we had any. Go read again. I didn't say they lost because of injuries. I said nobody is surprised to see the season end the way it did because the injuries left the LP chuckers on the floor more than anyone wanted, they take bad shots, and don't play defense--not a good combination. To help you wrap your brain around it--BYU isn't that good of a team--in spite of beating Gonzaga. The Gonzaga game is a fluke rather than the standard for this team. UNLV went from the "prepare thy anus" chest-thumpers to sweeping the floors and turning the lights out after the games and it pains you I can see. You were piling on BYU at halftime--but I'm the classless one in this scenario. Right.... 11 hours ago, CockyUNLVPoster said: I only call out classless acts. Carry on. Yeah, that's what you do.

It's just kind of odd how, wherever mainstream society brushes up against Mormonism, things get cattywampus.

If you would work out your "rage" on the Church Basketball Court, and save your "disgust" for the Refs, you'd be much happier. I don't know if I've ever seen a guy that needs Churchball more than you do. It would be great therapy for you. But you'd have to accept the rule---no cowboy boots on the wood floor. It marks the court up, and isn't safe for the other players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
