    I will admit, Rose has a very guard friendly offense. He should get a lot of guards that way.

      Also, calling BYU PG U is classic goat. Remember when he used to say Bronco is a GREAT coach, and Whit is a Very Good coach?
      Fortunately for Ute B-Ball fans, there really isn't ever a "last laugh," for if there were, BYU fans would be enjoying a multi-year paroxysm of laughter at your expense. But unlike your haughty self, we are possessed of both humility and self-awareness.

      Utes believed they were enjoying last laughs during the Majerus/Ingle and Meyer/Crowton eras, but the guffaws were fleeting. Having witnessed those recoveries, I don't expect the hilarity currently being produced by the Runnin' Utes will long endure (I give it five years, tops). But if the prospect of a last laugh, however illusory, provides you with balm during these troubled times, I shall not deny it. Patients in hospice care should be given all the morphine they desire.

It'll inspire a lot of kids to work on their jump shot.
        We will yet have Miltons and Shakespeares of our own? I guess you haven't been paying attention to college basketball the last few years?

At one point I was discouraged, dirty, tired and utterly dismayed. I was in the prone on a miserable late afternoon on a cold drizzly day. Soaking wet, hungry and tired I could not recall the last time I had been warm. Suddenly at that point in time, nature called and I had to do a number 1. Temptation struck and I thought: "I could piss myself and at least for a few fleeting moments I will experience the joy of warmth. True, the coldness and dampness will return, but holy hell I am already nasty filthy, hungry, cold, wet and haven't slept more than 5 hours total the previous 3 days. At least for a few short momets I will bask in the warmth of my own piss in my wee-wee region." In short, I am not proud to admit this but I succumbed.

          I know the temptation you are succumbing to my brother. So with a clenched right fist, I pound my chest right above my heart and invite you to piss away...piss away! The one or two fleeting moments of warmth will sustain you before you return to your noseguard turned D1 pg. BABY GOT BACK AND I CANNOT LIE! God bless and Happy New Year!

            I guess I misunderstood what you meant by PG U. This thread is now beyond great.

              "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                  Back in about 1977-78 I was speaking to a BYU administrator. The Osmonds had just opened their studio (in Orem?) and Redford was getting his Sundance Institute underway. These two watershed events, occurring in the shadow of BYU, were seen as signs of tremendous things to come regarding the church's (and BYU's) role in the motion picture industry and in bringing the message of the gospel to the world. The BYU Motion Picture Studio was abuzz with excitement over the coming opportunities.

                  I think that as BYU becomes PG U, we'll see similar success in the world of sports as doors are flung open worldwide to missionaries wearing Jimmer's photo on their name badges. It is inspiring to see the labors of Dick Nemelka, Danny Ainge and Trent Whiting bearing fruit.

                    Danny Ainge was not a PG at BYU. That position was held by Sister Osmond's first and third husband!

                        Yes, another example of how the BYU-Osmond connection has brought glory to the university and the church.

                        BTW, I was just talking to a friend the other day who is a college hoops fan. The subject of BYU came up and he said, "Oh yes! That's the school with all the great point guards! How do they do that?"

                        (OK, I made that up. But it could happen.)

                            Maybee he was confusing 2 guards for point guards? Was this conversation with the older brother of the JetBlue dude? Perhaps you should elevate your company and stand in holier places wrt guys who know what the 5 positions are on a basketball team.

                            Trust me, the warmth is very fleeting but the long term embarassment will infest you forever. I got your back, babe!

                              I know of a guy who runs a blog about Mormons running for President. Similar kind of thinking.

                                Don't force me to tell you the story of the gal on the swimming team I saw with a tail one night through my night vision goggles as I was on guard at a perimeter forward listening post/observation post (LPOP). To be sure, it really wasn't a tail! Sad part was she was actually kind of hot but I never really could get the picture out of my mind. This is why I think the Almighty forbids cohabitation until after marriage.
