Uhm, you mean cow-tipping jokes.
With csewe around, sheepsex jokes will continue to appear.

So what is with "Bear Down" being a slogan for UofA instead of for Cal? That would seem to be more logical. Anyone (pachoops?) know the origin of that? :huh:
They've got their own "Win one for the Gipper" cheese ball sob story or something from the days of leather helmets. I think. Either that or Pedo Bear originated at UA and they're really proud of their NAMBLA School of Law. I don't recall which it is.
Nik was really close with the Pedro Bear part. His name was actually Francisco Bear...semantics.
The story really is a leather topped sob tale of when John Button Salmon - the school's QB, star baseball player, etc. - was in a car wreck and was visited by legendary coach Pop McKale. Salmon, on his death bed, gave his coach some parting wisdom for the team, "Tell them...tell the team...to Bear Down." Read more!
Wow! That's two things I've learned about today. I love this board!
Thanks. :thumbsup:
GO BUFFS!
You didn't know that Nik was close with Pedo Bear?
Too close. But I've learned that it wasn't my fault. I was just a kid.
Surely you did something to create the situation.
I've been assured by my therapist that my coquettish flirting and enjoyment of tickle fights is irrelevant to what Pedo Bear did to me.
I would just like to say that i like the Buffs, but after reading this thread have decided that you are a very delusional fan base. You simply can not compare these 2 teams.
We have played 4 times-
The first game you beat us by 1 point @Colorado home.
Second game we won by 18 @Arizona
Third game you won by 2 @ neutral court
Fourth game we won by 9 @ Arizona
So the record is 2-2 for these teams. Comparing the history of these 2 schools isn't even fair so i wont go there. To top it off, lets look at the last 3 years and what actually matters in College Basketball, and that's the Tourney in March, we made it to the Elite 8, you made it to the round of 32. Congrats.
I look forward to playing you guys but to say its even a rivalry is laughable.

Look bellamatt,
nobody here is saying that Colorado - Arizona is now going to replace Duke - UNC as the premier rivalry in the nation. What we did is identified the program in the conference that we wanted to emulate and we nearly overwhelmingly choose Arizona. You should take that as a compliment, we revere the success your program has shown and recognize you as the team to beat in the PAC:12.
That being said, you are a total dumbass who can't understand saracasm and wit. You said we can't compare the programs and yet the records show 2-2 with a huge asterisk. That record seems pretty comparable to me and could have easily be swung in our favor handidly and you know it.
There are two years that matter to me in college basketball. This year by a landslide and last year (just barely). Stop living in the past and get ready for a hostile environment the likes you have never seen before.
The biggest thing that suggests Arizona isn't worthy to me is how they responded when they deservedly got shipped to the NIT last year. They showed their true colors, which is that they're weak and gutless. Their 'snub' last year was NOTHING compared to how badly we got ****ed over by the Committee in 2011. They weren't even snubbed last year, they deserved to be in the NIT. CU's snub in 2011 by the Committee was the biggest robbery ever seen in college basketball..that is, until Chen's winner at Arizona was stolen from us last month. However, our Buffaloes showed the heart and grit we have, and fought on, progressing all the way to Madison Square Garden despite the heartbreak. Arizona, meanwhile, acted like the gutless, heartless wimps they are and went out and lost to Bucknell in the First Round on their home court. It's a matter of toughness. We've got it. They don't.
I never once even hinted at that possibility, but the post's that i read on this board reference to it as a rivalry. And you cant honestly say that you guys are being sarcastic and witty. You have had 2 years of mediocre success, while U of A is in its worst 5 years out of the past 30 and this year tied for 1st in the conference and ranked top 10 pretty much all year is saying something.
Like i said i look forward to playing the Buffs and what you guys are bringing to the conference is a great thing.
You honestly cant question our toughness. We have played from behind quite a few times this year and have proven multiple times that we have what it takes to win. Our record could easily be 16-7 or worse, but our toughness as a group is obvious.
As of last year, our team was in shambles at that point and watching them play that last game it was obvious they were done with the season.
You might not be a good fit for this site. Have you considered Netbuffs?
I knew this thread was too good to last. Bellamatt (presumably the love child of Sylvia Plath and Matt Thompson) is just reminder that we're not allowed to have nice things.
so what you are saying is Zona has no chance without home cooking?
Haha, ok guys, i was trying to have a conversation with you all, and these are the responses that i get. So it looks like that is out of the question.
1. insult intelligence of board.
2. Get insulted back, albeit with actual humor involved.
3. Claim innocence, play the victim.
4. Pretend you are not a soulless, scummy, and humorless fan with limited intelligence.
Did I get that right?
