No need to act like a bunch of Baylor fans and no need to make fun of BYU or mormons for that matter.

Talk BB all you want, but show some class towards our new guests.

Sad what the internet has done to Aggie class.

Where are all the un-classy posts at. I'm not saying they aren't there, but I guess I haven't clicked on enough topics to see them.

Are we talking about 2 or 3 posters, or are we talking about a bunch?

I'm offended that you compared some of our fans to trashy Baylor fans. I didn't get hit by any bottles when I was reading this board today.

I married a mormon, other than that, all of the ones I've met were really nice.

I went to highschool with a Mormon girl. She was cool, but her dad was not.

I didn't like the "If you're not Mormon then you're not good enough to be friends with my daughter" attitude.

90% of these "non-classy" posts have been quotes from a very funny episode of South Park.

It's not about 'manning up', it's about representing MY university with class and integrity. I guess you'd be okay with the BYU folks ripping on something that you held near and dear? By all means, let's have them start up a Bonfire joke thread.....

Exactly, Dough.

Oh, and if y'all weren't aware, one of the guys that was on the stack when it fell was mormon. So why don't you guys act with some class and stop making asses out of A&M fans.

You're equating bonfire jokes with the jokes on this board about Mormons? You sir are clueless.

I worked with a bunch of byu grads when we destroyed them in the '90 Holiday Bowl. Before the game they were all arrogant and whiny about deserving a more "quality" opponent. After the game they were all up in my face about RC running the score up to make a point.

I say we treat them no different than we would any other opponent. BTHO byu!!!

Quotes from comedic cartoon pointing out some "interesting" quirks in their religion & lifestyle hardly equate to jokes about a tragic accident that resulted in multiple deaths.

If you want a comparison that has merit, you should probably try something like the Mountain Meadows Massacre. I haven't read that one on here yet.

SENSITIVITY OVERLOAD ALERT!!!!!!!!
Some of you just HAVE to get a life. Religion jokes (none of which were profane) = jokes about a tragedy resulting in multiple deaths...I think not.

Gun safety is no accident.

I work with a Mormon that went to BYU. He's not that different than I am. And if he was, there's no need to make fun of it.

I don't know what was said but if you are basing your moral compass on something said on South Park then you are pretty flipping twisted. That being said, religious jokes do not equal bonfire jokes but what mother or father raised you to think making fun of religion is ok? I've never found it fun to be ridiculed how about you? That's why as Aggies we yell for our team and not boo or put down the other team. Gig 'Em and b.t.h.o. BYU!

I'm not sure what's dumb about requesting that we conduct ourselves with class and dignity.

Besides, the religious stuff is neither clever nor original. Tired stereotypes and weak generalizations are the bread and butter of our friends from Lubbock and Waco.

Let's leave it to them.

No. The fact that you cannot grasp why someone would be offended by the fact that you're making fun of THE guiding principle of their life, the basis for the manner in which they try to lead their life, shows just how absolutely clueless YOU are.

Oh, and as for the PC comment.....I'm about as anti-PC as you can get. Having said that, eschewing the 'values' of PC doesn't mean that you have to shun the value of common courtesy.

I blame the internet for the horse poo incident at Kyle. Terrible, just terrible.
