I don't think Mitchell should attack reality TV stars like that. Uncool.
I agree. And Donny is so insecure, I don't like when the popular, smart and talented kids pick on him. But we do have safe spaces for the likes of snowflake POTUS45

Cant you go back to the old you? We should have 5-10 threads by now asking will Gobert surpass S&M, will Bokerjack supersede Hot Rod, is Snyder better than Sloan, are the Jazz dancers hotter than the 2006 team, do last year's nachos and hot dogs deserve t by eir li won statues.
This isn't politics. This is a blowhard jackass calling the NBA's best player and an interviewer dumb and Donovan saying that attacking others to make yourself feel better is a sign of an insecure man.Big mistake, Donovan. Don't ever involve yourself in politics; you are guaranteed to piss off half the people in this state if you do.

This "blowhard jackass" just happens to be the President of the United States. How can this not be political? And your "truth" is not universal.This isn't politics.

He's just telling the basic truth.

Lebron James is nearing the end of his career and has already banked a couple hundred mill. If he wants to start a war with Trump (and Lebron did start it!) then let him. But Donovan's career is just starting and he doesn't need this kind of BS to side track it. If his agent isn't explaining this to DM, then he isn't doing his job.
So any US president is beyond reproach if you happen to be in the public eye. Sounds dangerously undemocratic to me.This "blowhard jackass" just happens to be the President of the United States. How can this not be political? And your "truth" is not universal.

Just because Utah is a red state doesn't mean people support or like Trump.<sigh> You folks don't get it. You betcha, Donovan has the right to say whatever he wants, but then those who disagree with his political statements have the right to tune out the Utah Jazz. Utah is a red state.
Think about it. I'm sure DL and Gail Miller are.
As an ex-mormon who was once married in the temple, grew up in Utah County and served a full-time mission, I wonder what your experience is with mormon tithing and how they are aggressive. I was taught to pay tithing and why I should. I was never asked to pay tithing, aggressively sought after to pay tithing, had anyone knock on my door to collect fast offerings (I did that as a kid) or had my leaders make me feel bad about it. During my interviews, I would always say I wasn't a full tithe player and rarely paid. My leaders always had responses of love, understanding and maybe challenged to seek out the blessings of paying tithing. They never once made me feel guilty about it.No other major church pursues tithing as aggressively as the LDS church. Not even close. Any of you who are only familiar with the LDS church might not realize that. All major religions function off tithing, but it is generally more of a give what you can type arrangement and I believe almost all tithing payments are anonymous. Correct me if I'm wrong, LDS folks, but your church knows how much tithing you pay to the penny and they sometimes call you out if you're not paying your full 10%?
And honest question to the LDS folks. If you do pay your 10% tithing, do you feel like for the most part you've done all the charitable giving you need to do (other than more church related giving, like a fast offering or donations to the DI and boy scouts, etc.)?
If they took out religious charitable giving I'd put a lot of money on Utah being very close to the bottom of the list. The bottom, not close to the bottom, dead last and by a lot.
This President constantly lowers himself below the office he holds.This "blowhard jackass" just happens to be the President of the United States. How can this not be political? And your "truth" is not universal.

If that tweet has any effect, then the people who don't value the person he is should look in the mirror and realize they're a POS. Donovan said nothing wrong at all. That tweet by the damn President of the United States was clownish and terrible. Spencer Cox liked Donovans tweet. I think people in Utah (other than those that are blind Trump followers and there are some) understand Trump is a garbage human being even if they voted for him or like some of his policies. If politcs mean enough to someone to hate on a great person like Donovan, they have some priority issues. I'll defend Donovan every turn he takes on these issues, he has every right to his opinion. The fact he's a great human is what should matter.<sigh> You folks don't get it. You betcha, Donovan has the right to say whatever he wants, but then those who disagree with his political statements have the right to tune out the Utah Jazz. Utah is a red state.

I did mention in an earlier post that my impression of how the LDS church handles tithing has come mostly from ex-Mormons. I absolutely appreciate your response and Colton's response to my post.As an ex-mormon who was once married in the temple, grew up in Utah County and served a full-time mission, I wonder what your experience is with mormon tithing and how they are aggressive.

The church has a ton of money, don't get me wrong. They do a lot of good with it too - like a lot of good. I always find it interesting how the mormon church pisses people off so easily - especially ex members. It never wronged me. I have some of my best memories from it and I think it's a good framework to follow. Who cares if people pay tithing to help fund what they believe? Hell, my gf from Florida occassionally goes to church and occasionally puts money in a jar (I don't know if it's a donation jar) that's passed around during service. I would much rather tell her good for you, babe than question why she would do that and ask where the money is going.
I love Utah. It has it quirks, but they are only bad if you look at them that way.
