Annual Smack: Day III (and IV)


Harline poses as the human "Y" after a Cougar victory
the last time we played at Rice Eccles.

I was laid up in bed all day yesterday with something the kids gave me--but nothing that a few doses of NyQuil couldn't fix.

As a result, I have just an extra joke or two and also a bit of extra reading for you. Click here to read about the finale to the 2006 game as remembered by John Beck--a good read for yewts and Cougs alike (Beck has some good things to say about Eric Weddle).

A couple of jokes:

2 yewts walk into a bar after the BYU game against TCU and order a round for the house for TCU's "big win" over the Cougs. The bartender asks why they are ordering celebratory drinks if their team didn't even play that day. They say, "We're doing what any good fan would do to support our yewts." The bartender then says he wished they would have come in after the big win against Oregon St. to order a round for the house since business hadn't been that good as of late. The 2 yewts had a confused look on their face and looked at the bartender and ask, "We played Oregon State this year?"

Q. What's the difference between a litter of puppies and Ute fans?
A. Eventually the puppies grow up and quit whining.

Here is an interesting stat for you to ponder:

BYU and Utah also have a long history in football, however the two schools disagree on exactly when the series started. BYU asserts that the series began in 1922, but Utah claims that it actually began in 1896 when BYU was known as the Brigham Young Academy (BYA). From 1896-1899, BYA and Utah played each other six times, with each school winning three games. Either way, Utah leads the football series: 52-33-4 or 49-30-4, depending on the way you look at it."

Here are my rivalry jokes for today:


Q:What is the difference between BYU and a bowl of Cheerios?

A:The Cheerios belong in a bowl!

Q:Why is BYU considering fitting L.E. stadium with artificial turf instead of grass?

A:So the cheerleaders will stop grazing...

Q: What should you do if you find three Brigham Young University fans buried up to their neck in cement?

A: Get more cement.


A guy in a bar leans over to the guy next to him and says, "Wanna hear a good BYU joke?"

The guy next to him replies, "Well before you tell that joke, you should know something. I'm 6' tall, 200 lbs., and I am a BYU grad. The guy sitting next to me is 6' 2" tall, weighs 225, and he's a BYU grad. And the fella next to him is 6' 5" tall, weighs 250, and he's a BYU grad. Now, you still wanna tell that joke?"

The first guy says, "No, not if I'm gonna have to explain it three times."

Nice jokes. Nice stats too, but isn't the question always "what have you done for me lately?".

I think the real question is "How can we shorten the BYU game by two minutes?"
