    Yep. Don't like those strange names, especially those that need some kind of explanation as to what they mean.

    Which reminds me of a question I've always wanted to ask you....

    Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

    I'm still mulling this one over. It depends on which Travis Wilson shows up:

    Angry Giraffe: Utes win by 10
    Captain Pick: Utes lose by 21

    That's about as far as I have gotten so far.

    I'm not opposed to changing it, but will you satisfy my curiosity and give me your reasons. I have used this username on several other platforms and the only feedback I have received has been positive.

    Not saying you are thinking this way, but this is what I thought of first.

    Then considering the somewhat touchy relationship we have with the Ute Tribe, I'm inclined to avoid anything that might be considered mocking Native Americans.

    I said to a guy in a full headdress at the last home game that I wished he wouldn't wear that either. At first he was angry at me, but when I explained to him that I didn't think that he intended to offend, but there was the possibility to offend and lose the Utes support he agreed that he wouldn't wear it anymore.

    Again, I'm not saying that is your intent, those were just the two things I thought of when I saw your board name.
