It's nice to see a Presbyterian stick up for a Mormon kid

Thanks for sharing. That was a great article by Tom Kirkland. I'm not sure if Rick Reilly just hates Mormons, is jealous of The Jimmer, or is against having class, but whichever one, he needs to get over it.

All I want to know is



1) Does he have a facebook page? And



2) Why has it not been Jimmered?

All I know is that if Reilly wrote that drivel and used Jews or Muslims as the religous basis, he would be skewered. ESPN would not have let it fly. Can you imagine:



"Jimmer is a nice boy, reading his Bible at night wearing his yarmulka. Jews should not come to New Orleans because of the naked women and sin. Muslims don;t drink, so Bourbon street is a bad place for them" blah blah blah.



Ignorant.

Mormons are fair game because we are an American religion and predominately white. Otherwise, your comment is spot on. ESPN should have banished this article to the ash heap from the start.
