OU-BYU Sign Ideas??

[jharkins]

Anyone have any ideas for signs inside Jerry-world? All I can think of is

"Cowboys Stadium, Home of The Screen Monster" - (credit The Ticket radio station, Dallas)

or

"Jerry, are you taking reservations for 12/5 yet?"

The Cowboy's Guest Info can be found at
http://stadium.dallascowboys.com/guests/guestInfo.cfm


Banners and Signs

Signs must be handheld, event-related, in good taste and cannot obstruct another guest's view. They may not contain commercial messages, logos or political endorsements and may not be hung on the stadium structure. Signs on poles or sticks, constructed of wood or metal material, are also not permitted. Management reserves the right to confiscate signs that are in violation of stadium policy.

Perhaps you're a descendant of the man who issued the extermination order?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extermination_order
And before you laugh--remember that many good Mormon folks had ancestors that were murdered by people in this region. This is not to say that Mormons never did anything bad. They did. But I don't think it's right to make this about beating Mormons. Why can't it be about beating Cougars? Next time OU recruits a Mormon kid, I hope they reference this board and remind the kid what kind of fans they'll be playing for.

Not trying to start a comparative religion class debate. It's just a sign, dude. Of all the foul things people have said you picked that out. And besides, there's no N in Cougars.

This isn't about comparative religion. It's about whether it should be acceptable to make this about beating the Mormons instead of beating the Cougars.

If you were playing TCU, would you make a sign about killing or pounding the Christians? What if you were playing a Jewish University (hypothetically speaking) or a historically black university?

Have you lived in both states? I have spent about 1/3rd of my life in Oklahoma and 2/3rds in Utah. If you want to just look at the data, Utah ranks well ahead of Oklahoma in every education category there is from literacy and high school graduation rate to college and advanced degrees. It's not even close.

Listen people--ever since I moved to Oklahoma 8 years ago, I have gotten constant grief from local people over the fact that I happen to be a Mormon, even though I'm not a very religious person.

Ignorance leads to fear and fear leads to hate. I would never claim that Mormonism is perfect or that Mormons haven't done bad things in the past. But generally Mormons are good, kind people. I think Okies are also generally good, kind people. Unfortunately, ignorance, misinformation, and fear of the unknown sometimes leads to hate. I think it would be wise to just keep the Mormon stuff off your signs.

If you're going to hate somebody this weekend--hate the Cougars. Don't make it about religion.

It's my heritage.

I have never heard one negative thing about another religion when I have attended Mormon Church.

If you were Mormon and almost every time you played a BCS school on the road they began chanting F!@# the Mormons, would you be sensitive to that? What if your ancestors had been shot and killed over their faith?

Like I said: ignorance leads to fear, and fear leads to hate. Keep the "Mormon" stuff off your signs. Not cool.

You're misunderstanding me here. Comparitive Religion is an entry level course taught at most universities that teach them about the different religions in the world.

Your assertion that I believe it's actually OK to "pound" Mormons is silly. Your assumption that it's because I come from an uneducated or backwards background is silly at best, and flat-ignorant at worst.

I'll restate: It's just a sign dude. It's just like all the others that make fun of the polygamy angle and everything else. Come on, man. They're just jokes.

It matters because it wasn't all that long ago. It also matters because to this day pastors at churches all over this state spew hateful lies about Mormons. It also matters because this board has consistently mocked Mormonism. I don't really believe in Mormonism myself, but I do sincerely believe in respecting all faiths and cultures.

My very first day as a graduate student at OU, I had medical and graduate students repeating the most laughable things about Mormons that they had "learned at church." A PhD student actually asked me if I was a descendant of Joseph Smith because he "saw a video about Mormons at church" and was told by his pastor that all Mormons are all direct descendants of Joseph Smith. This was a very smart guy, but even he had been misled.

Sorry to pick on you. I've just noticed that many OU fans seem to have a problem with grammar, spelling, capitalization, and punctuation. Maybe that will change now that Oklahoma has instituted the "Lottery for Education."

yes, sports message boards are such a bastion of fine grammar and men of letters.

get over yourself man.

[SoonerCoug]

I don't care what kind of board this is. How difficult is it to write at an 8th-grade level?

[starclassic tama]

yeah, it is REALLY important to capitalize your posts when talking about football on a message board. text messages also!

[picasso]

I don't care what kind of board this is. How difficult is it to write at an 8th-grade level?

I dunno, you tell me smart guy. I'm sure hoping the teams don't have a spelling contest.

[picasso]

If you stop now, I'll bring back the sun.

[Hot Rod]

We've went to games signs, to religion, and (now, if you're just joining us) proper grammar. Let's see what topic comes up next.

She affiliates herself with Mormonism and loves Mormon culture, but she does not actually believe in God.

so basically she wants all of the benefits of a community without having to adhere to any of the rules.

nice!

[Hot Rod]

If you stop now, I'll bring back the sun.

Do you have a picture of your sister? ;)

[SoonerCoug]

We've went to games signs, to religion, and (now, if you're just joining us) proper grammar. Let's see what topic comes up next.

Here's a summary:

1) The suggested signs were about religion.
2) I responded by calling people out and saying that making bigoted comments about religion is classless.
3) Sooner fans responded by saying that BYU is not known for anything except Mormonism. Many Sooner responses are written with poor grammar and multiple spelling and/or punctuation errors.
4) I pointed out that BYU has a much better academic reputation than OU. I would not exchange this for a better football team. I hope we win anyway, but I'm sure we won't.

[Hot Rod]

This coming from a guy whose team only has 1 letter on their helmet, from the school, B-Y-U.

[SoonerCoug]

nice!

No, she lives by the rules. She's never even tried alcohol. She just doesn't believe in God.

[JLEW1818]

"SoonerCoug sucks"

that's what mine will say, make sure u watch

[SoonerCoug]

This coming from a guy who's team only has 1 letter on their helmet, from the school, B-Y-U.

"The Y" is the school's nickname. It's a reference to the Y on the mountain next to BYU.

I'll bet you I'm the only person on this board to have degrees from both schools. I have two bachelor's degrees from BYU, and a PhD and professional degree from OU. Having attended both institutions, I choose to cheer for BYU. I'm pretty sure that I'm the only person here that can objectively compare the two schools as academic institutions.

[Crucifax Autumn]

I'm gonna objectively watch the Y get their collective *** kicked Saturday.

[starclassic tama]

so why didn't you get your PhD at an academically superior institute like BYU?

[Hot Rod]

Here's a summary:

1) The suggested signs were about religion.

Because BYU is named after the state or city it's in?

2) I responded by calling people out and saying that making bigoted comments about religion is classless.

Yeah, it can be but again, it's really all in good fun and truly not malicious. College football can do that to all fans.

3) Sooner fans responded by saying that BYU is not known for anything except Mormonism. Many Sooner responses are written with poor grammar and multiple spelling and/or punctuation errors.

See my response to #1, and who cares, this isn't a term paper.

4) I pointed out that BYU has a much better academic reputation than OU. I would not exchange this for a better football team. I hope we win anyway, but I'm sure we won't.

And finally, you changed the subject instead of leaving the boards, because you looked for an up against the State of Oklahoma and OU. I hope it's a good game regardless.

If you're going to hate somebody this weekend--hate the Cougars. Don't make it about religion.

I doubt you'll find anyone on campus that hates a cougar!

[SoonerCoug]

BYU does not have a medical school. I came here mostly because I was married to an Okie, and she wanted to live near her family. I have since divorced and married a different Okie. Only one wife at a time--it's been the rule since 1890.

And why did they only put a Y on the mountain? Perhaps they forgot the B and the U?

As to the grammar,etc - drop it! When people are typing, either on this type of board or texting, it is easy to make a typo. That does NOT mean that the person posting the message is ignorant or somehow inferior to you. Your references to your degrees and the assertion that you are somehow better qualified than anyone else to comment on a particular topic just makes you come across as an arrogant s.o.b.

Now, could we please just get back to FOOTBALL!!!!!

[SoonerCoug]

I doubt you'll find anyone on campus that hates a cougar!

Right, so they have to use religion to generate enough hatred to "get up" for the game.

[SoonerCoug]

Your references to your degrees and the assertion that you are somehow better qualified than anyone else to comment on a particular topic just makes you come across as an arrogant s.o.b.

My only point was that I have degrees from both schools and can compare the two.

The Y was placed in 1906 by high school students. They later abandoned their plans for a B and a U, and it has been "the Y" ever since.

[OKLA21FAN]

Not in America. And no other religion has actually had an extermination order issued against it in this country.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extermination_order

hmmmm, I'd say many of these peeps from the 'Trial of Tears' would disagree with your premise. You can cry foul all you like, however people from Oklahoma have had to deal with similar crimes against their ancestors. You are not unique.

Point taken. I would also imagine that bigoted signs and comments about Native Americans or their religion would be unacceptable here.

[Crucifax Autumn]

You have to marvel at how they made the Y so friggin' small. That's why BYU will never be for real. They just don't think big.

[redhawk49]

How about-"We're gonna spank the cougars and beat the"Y". At least thats what I heard some frat boys say at the club last weekend.

[SoonerCoug]

slackers :pop:

It is 380 feet high and 130 feet wide. No other university in the United States has a larger symbol. The Y is larger than the HOLLYWOOD sign in California.

I think it's horrible that they built the Y. I'm opposed to construction of any kind on mountains.

[SoonerAficionadOU]

A doctor flappin' jaws with these ruffians?! Something is amiss!

And you know it's like quicksand: the more you struggle, the deeper you go.

Yeah, I'm really just hoping that the BYU Haka isn't BYU's only highlight of the game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYFTbVI3sOA

I know that a lot of opposing teams take offense to the BYU Haka. It's a tradition that was started in honor of a BYU player's Maori father who passed away a couple of years ago.

[Blitzkrieg]

Y because "Polygamy" wont fit on the helmet.

so BYU is very okie lite like and steals traditions from other schools? in this case, Hawai? :pop:

You may not realize it, but a huge percentage of Polynesia is Mormon. Just look at the BYU roster and count the number of Polynesians.

#1, that's not very Mormon of you

1) One of the main reasons Mormons get picked on is because they're too damn nice. Well I'm a Mormon agnostic, and so I figured I'd come fight the good fight for the rest of them.

2) It's not a spelling error.

I LOL'd.

[instigator]

Listen people--ever since I moved to Oklahoma 8 years ago, I have gotten constant grief from local people over the fact that I happen to be a Mormon, even though I'm not a very religious person.

Ignorance leads to fear and fear leads to hate. I would never claim that Mormonism is perfect or that Mormons haven't done bad things in the past. But generally Mormons are good, kind people. I think Okies are also generally good, kind people. Unfortunately, ignorance, misinformation, and fear of the unknown sometimes leads to hate. I think it would be wise to just keep the Mormon stuff off your signs.

If you're going to hate somebody this weekend--hate the Cougars. Don't make it about religion.


This is a TERRIBLE sign idea!

Your sign will say two words:

FREE MIKE

It can include his picture and his number or if you want to be more specific, it can be "Free Mike Balogun," but this guy needs our support and the country needs to know that the NCAA is doing the WRONG thing.

Jokes against BYU and Mormons aside, a bunch of FREE MIKE signs in the crowd might have a better impact than sucking up to the network broadcasting the game or poking fun at a team that will be behind by 50 by halftime.

FREE MIKE!
