    Your arguments are a stretch, to say the least.
    If it's not getting any play then that's a huge indictment against the fanbase. It demonstrates just how fickle and fair-weather zoots— especially here on this board, obviously—are. Here's a good article to help catch you up:

    My argument is:
    Do you even know what you are arguing anymore? How does being aware of Alex's role in Rudy's developement have anything to do with Ute fans tie of the LDS religion to Utah sports? Ute fans would have to be talking about it for you to make that connection, and that ain't happening.

    To put my feelings in a way that LAUte would appreciate, you are the Fezzini of this board. Truly you have a dizzying intellect.

    What is it with this weird obsession with the Princess Bride ... lol ... it's cultural, no doubt. You citing it here only reinforces and further proves my point. ALUF Ute fans are the mirror image of BYU fans. Utah based Mormons love that movie more than any group I have ever encountered. That is just too funny chrisenrut—too funny.

There is little of all that we do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties; we relieve stress; we correct mistakes; we take up other men's burdens and by our efforts we make possible the peaceful life of men in a peaceful state.”
