See thats the problem with some of the so-called football fans in EP, AKA chuco town. Everybody is always quick to complain and only roots for the team when they are winning. I am originally from EP and I gotta tell you vato, I dont want to see you at the next game after the miners upset the longhorns because you wont deserve to start rooting for them. Me I am a true fan all the way from up here in Wyoming, not only for the miners but for El Paso!! Everyone else but this Vato... Go Miners beat the horns and if you dont, I'll still be there for you the next game, which is what a true fan does, thick and thin Miners all the way!!!!

I just love it when an ElP original that lives somewhere else puts into perspective. It's losers like "vato" that are unfortutnately the majority in ELP. I get so tired of people bringing our city down all of the time. I believe my city, mi tierra querida, ElP has great potential. I would go back in a heartbeat if the right opportunity arises. People need to get out and support local businesses, vote the right people into office, stop leaving things for "tomorrow", and have some pride in their roots. If you dont like where you live....leave!!! If you stay stop whining like alittle girl. Offer some solutions!!

When I was a kid I saw the Miners beat BYU in the "Miner Miracle". Man that was cool! If fans would only get behind ALL the sports programs in EP. Look what it did for San Antonio. Professional sports thrives there and they are not even as big as EP. However, the problem is, is that no-one allows our elected officials to spend money on new sports complexes or other facilities. Everyone is always so quick to complain. Why do you think the Diablos left town for Corpus. I couldn't believe when I visited EP on Christmas last year and found that out.(I hadn't been to EP for years.) Man the one great, and yes El Pasoans "affordable" and fun sports figure in El Paso, and you guys run them out of town!!! Just before I left the tax payers wouldnt even allow the city or county to put up the tent domes on Cohen. NO wonder everybody leaves, no support for anything that would attract more commerce and yes entertainment condusive to tourism. C'mon El Pasoans at least get behind our Miners and really do it up for the game against the Long Horns. Dont listen to people like "Vato". He's the reason why we end up losing great things and great people and their organizations to forward looking cities. Go back to Boston VAto where you can latch back on to the cheating Patriots!! Go Miners! P.S. Remember how we even got rid of The Mouth (Paul Strelzin) at both the Miner games and the diablos, just because the no-fun tight wads in EP dont have any vision. I'll never forget "MINER BALL"!!! or "How bout a little SFD"!!! Those were the days people!!

Not even bigger than El Paso? Hahaha. Do some research. San Antonio is much bigger than El Paso.

[it figures]

hey el vato, are you sure the little mrs. isn't a big old cow with longhorns?

Sorry Bofo, your wrong! At any given time the amount of people in the El Paso area is much larger than San Antonio due to the fact that Fort Bliss is not counted on the Population data. Not to mention Juarez with over 1 million. If you want to laugh at someone, laugh at your ignorance. Oh and by the way, I was complimenting San Antonio, but once again I guess ignorance is bliss....hahahahahahahahahahah ahahahah..........

[BernDawg]

Born and raised in El Paso, Tx fan of the Miners (should of beaten the R. Raiders) currently reside in Oklahoma City. It should be a good day for the fans, city, and Chicos Tacos!!! But I must strive for a National Championship!!! HOOK EM' HORNS!!!

[Ti-Ti-Di]

San Antonio has 1.5 million plus. No way in hell El Paso has 1 million, even if you include Bliss. You cant be serious and count the people living in cardboard houses in Juarez into El Pasos population.

Idiot

You're forgeting the military bases in San Antonio and the fact that people actually live in the suburbs NOT just the city of San Antonio. Take a count and you'll find that more people live in the county of Bexar than in El Paso county!

old topic but time to revive it!

Miners pick off colt 3 times and win by 6!

Miners 38
"duh"horns-32- made 2 pt conversion...

just when ut thinks they have won by scoring late in the 4th the Miners come back down and score one more TD for the WIN!

Maybe if the UTEP fans wear crimson and cream colored clothing the Horns will be fooled into thinking they are playing the Sooners and...... "well" I digress.

Actually, the Horns are in rebuilding mode this year so anything can happen.
Horns - 48
Miners- 16
