A couple minutes later, I found a Woody Paige mailbag article, with this question asked:

“Woody, I understand that CU is in the Big 12, but when are the Colorado State Rams ever going to get any credit in this state? The Post is obsessed with CU and its lack of sporting achievements, yet every school well-deserving of publicity is overlooked. When CU lost to top-ranked Kansas (LOST being the key word), it was treated as though it won the game. Yet the Rams almost beat New Mexico (No. 10) and it was a small side note in the paper. Must you guys be reminded CSU has beaten CU in every sport this year? Not to mention the fact that the Mountain West Conference is becoming very relevant.”

Response (summarized):

“I’ve had this discussion with CSU fans since I arrived in Denver in 1974. “We don’t get any respect.”

Colorado State has an inferiority complex, and I get tired of alums who are my friends whining all the time, then won’t make the trip up to Fort Collins to fill the stadium or the arena, and don’t donate more than 12 bucks to the program.

Colorado is the No. 1 school in the state, like it or not. All polls show that. The Post reflects what people want to read."

Talk about getting sat down and shut up. Game ovaaaaa. I also thought it was hilarious that he said “LOST to Kansas” and “ALMOST BEAT New Mexico.”
