    In any case, I had a chance to work with Shawn once and he is a first-class human being.

    Says the fan of a team that throws parades for 2nd place.

    Did the Patriots have a parade?

    (By the way BYU has produced highlight DVDs for the past 7 or 8 seasons, for both football and basketball. Utah would do the same if they a) had any highlights and b) had a fan base that would buy them. For further evidence look where TopUtes book ranks on Amazons best seller list, not sure its cracked the top million yet.)

    You're killing it today.

    I recall Bogut donating 125K for the endowment of scholarship and to help with locker room renovation. I'm sure Jimmer did something similar.

    Just checked Miller's stats, he is shooting his best 3 point percentage of his career and has already taken more 3 pointers than all of last season. He also has his highest eFG% and TS% of his career this year.
    He is in his 15th season and has been productive in every one of them. He is not a hall of fame or allstar type player but he is a very good player who has been consistently so for a long time. He has had the kind of career that Jimmer can aspire to.

    As ususal there is nothing in the local Salt Lake City News about this.
