I didn't even read it.

That's a lie. You follow me around on here just so that you respond to my thought experiments. Everyone on here sees how you follow me from thread to thread. You can't help yourself.  As Bryan Adams might sing, much of what I say, I say for you.  


Btw, for those who think that religiosity in sports gnaws at me... Not a big deal,  no more than , say, a fly in my soup sort of annoyance. I'm a liberal . Live your life as you see fit is my mantra. Religiosity is silly to many of us but all I care about is having entertaining basketball to watch. I like Pope and I like Cal-two different guys with different styles and different philosophies about life. I've enjoyed watching teams of both coaches. Btw, Cal is a devout Catholic who attends Mass daily. It' s a big part of his life. That's no less silly than Pope's relkigiosity and yet I have been the biggest Cal supporter on this board for years. I overlook the silliness. I just want entertaining basketball from my coaches.

Many of you may have forgotten that I grew up a Southern Baptist---Bible School, Sunday School, Sunday morning/ Sunday night ,Training Union on Wednesday nights, revivals, vacation Bible school ,Bible camps. I've been there. done that. Do you know where I have heard the worst name-calling about Mormons and Mormonism?  Correct. From the church pew in my Southern Baptist church on the corner of Fourth and Kentucky Street in downtown Corbin. We were "taught" that if you were a Morman, you were in a cult and you were going to hell. What I didn't realize at the time was that I was part of a cult, as well, right there on Fourth Street.

I don't care if we have a roster of Mormons or Jehovah Witnesses(I was actually invited to a JW Kingdom Hall once... and went---that's for another thread). I just want to be entertained by some basketball. It's not one of the really important things in life but if I'm gonna spend four hours of my time each week watching it, I want to be entertained. It was an entertaining season. Success!!!
