Rudeness at UO

Various news sources are reporting Oregon fans at Saturday's football game between UO and BYU chanted "F*** the Mormons." I am a UO alumnus and I am offended by their behavior.

I lived in Eugene for three years, and attended plenty of games in Autzen Stadium. I now live in a LDS majority area of western Wyoming. So I have known Oregonians and Mormons. Of the two, I prefer Mormons, hands down.

Incidentally, I am neither an Oregonian nor an adherent of the LDS faith. I have been a more-than-casual observer of both groups.
