YBritute propaganda
So In Lubbock (same ward with recent BYU DB grad)my wife attended a bunko group at a ute "fans" home. In their kids bedroom was a large poster that said: "Max Hall Hates Me"
Why put that in a 2 year old's room? That's equivalent to some propaganda seen in North Korea, Germany, and Russia. As a BYU fan yes I dislike utah. But I'm smart and reasonable enough to know there are many great things that come from the hill. I know Max ranted on about how poorly he and his family were treated by ute fans, and that may not represent them as a whole.
But as a student of child development, I can promise you the best way to get your sons interested in certain teams is to enhance "positive experiences" and minimize negative experiences. My problem with this ute fan is he thinks the best way to garner his son to being a ute is filling him with hate of BYU. Filling him with hate is ridiculous, and supports the theory that ute "fans" are actually just Y haters.
ute "fans" should also realize they have bigger fish to fry in the pac10.2 don't they? My guess is that they aren't aware of the shift of attention.
In my home, my boys are BYU fans because they will grow up loving BYU, watching BYU, wearing BYU blue, and rather than being taught to hate a team, they'll be taught to love a team.
That's what real "fans" do.
