Rock on Jimmy you are absolutely right! To the rest of you quit whining because you know you’re being pansies. Face it Utah, you lost!

I am a die hard Cougar fan. I found his comments hilarious!
I want every ute fan to honestly answer this…. Friday November 27 and all time before then, did you care one little bit what Max Hall thought? I am pretty confident in saying, no.
Suddenly 24 hours later the entire ute nation cares so much about Max Hall not loving them that the past 5 days have all been about the man they care about so much, that they can’t stop talking about him.
personally I think the utes are just ticked because Hall said it first(and actually got attention for it). The next time a ute says they hate BYU everybody will just say oh yea, it has already been said back in 2009 by Max Hall, so no originality.
So to all those people that hate me,I say… okay, well see ya later

I am a BYU fan and always will be. But, The worst offense Hall made with his speech was he took the attention away from his teammates and made Saturday’s game all about himself.

His teammates worked hard to get a win for his school and they deserved all the credit and glory that comes with beating your rival. Now, the game will be remembered as much for Hall’s comments as for the way it ended.

Hall has every right to his own opinions, but he should have shared them another time and allowed his teammates and school the joy of the win!

As a senior, Max Hall should have known better. Sure, everyone has the right to their own opinion, but his statement was out of line. The Ute fans who poured beer on his family last year, they were classless. However they’re not the only ones. I seem to recall a Cougar fan punching Kyle Whittingham’s wife after the game. They are “classless” as well. I, a Ute fan, am embarrassed that some of my fellow fans can be so idiotic. Does that still make me a classless fan worthy of Max Hall’s hate? Hall crossed a line on Saturday and embarrassed himself, his team, and his school. For being an LDS student at a school that prides themselves for their ethics, he sure knows how to use the word hate.

Yes, he has a right to say what he feels. However, his comments were not just directed to the “fans” that poured beer (allegedly) on his mother. He directed them at every single person at the U. I wasn’t even at the game last year, so I am lumped into the classless bunch that harassed his family? He directed them at the team, who wouldn’t have even been close to his family-he crossed the line. I have been to many games and never thought our fans were out of line, ever. Max Hall showed tremendous hate for every single person who attends/works/cheers the University of Utah. He is also a public figure, he had a year to say that he feels there are some fans that carried away, but he didn’t. He stewed about it a year and waited for an opportunity to bash the U. It is un-sportsman like, and he knew it.

I am a member of the LDS faith but definitely not a BYU fan. I follow their games and always give them kudos for a good game. That sucks some fans allegedly dumped beer on his family (which they had to have illegally brought because they do not sell beer at the UTE Stadium), but that was only few fans. I think it was wrong of him to lash out on the University like he did and I’m glad that he decided to make a public apology because if he didn’t it would have really showed he was even more classless. I don’t care if that is how he feels about Ute fans, but he should have said “I’m happy with this win!” and left it at that. I think many people are getting the wrong impression of the LDS faith because of his comments. So just to clear it up for Evan and others like you, we do not think we are better than you (although there are Mormons out there just like in every faith that think they are more self-righteous) and I’m sorry that people like Hall make you think that.

GO UTES!!!!

Ha ha you are all kind of idiots, including Max. What was he supposed to say, “I love them and feel bad that they lost and we won?” What did you want him to quote scriptures just because he goes to the Y? Hey morons, it’s rivalry – there is nothing friendly about it! He didn’t dog the prophet, he said he hated the fans – you know, the ones that are AHOLES. Don’t worry the Y has plenty of them just as any school. If this was a player from the other side he’d get just as much crap from the opposing team. Welcome to Sports you idiots – it’s always like that wether they publicly announce it or not.

It is better to sit silent and be thought of as a fool then it is to open your mouth and remove all doubt. Thanx max I no longer have any doubt.
