Doug Robisnon Column in the Deseret News

[colton]

Holy Crap. That man is an idiot.

I agree that the article was quite stupid.

First off, remember what the Deseret News is: Panders to the BYU crowd, who honestly believe they are going to win a national championship in football, have a heisman player, and go to the sweet 16 in basketball every year. OK. Now that you remember that, realize that NONE of those people are grounded in reality. NONE.

snip to end

At least they will be able to drown their sorrows in BYU's pathetic football schedule, they will get their 11 wins (with their only loss being against the only BCS team with a winning record), and feel good about themselves once again.

What the heck? Where did THAT all come from? Please don't use a stupid article about the Jazz as an excuse to slam all BYU fans.

It's all part of the "poor Ty got a bum rap after being dealt a hand that had no chance of winning" theme being spouted by virtually all of the local and national sports media. They are making excuses for the "nice guy" that couldn't coach.

Personally, I believe anyone who thinks Ty was dealt a losing hand -- for 3 years running! -- doesn't understand that winners make the most of whatever hand they are dealt. I cannot remember a single time, during his three years as head coach, that Ty ever make a half-time adjustment to the lineup that wasn't driven by fouls or injury. Is there another coach in the NBA for which that could be said?

What a refreshing take.

Most of you missed this key point:

The Jazz have been building to add one draft piece and PRAY he's the third part of a trio of youngsters. As it now stands, the Jazz are praying the draft brings them their very first one of three needed studs to buy them time, drifting around in the breeze, while devising a new plan. "Core 4" failed with little in the way of a backup plan.

Hill for Heisman, right?

BYU will finally make the playoffs this year, right?

Why don't you just get off the BYU crap. This site is about the Jazz.

 

[Hedda Gambler]

Look at what else we are missing out on: All those Jazz players that left, and are leading their teams to great things? What did they just accomplish? They were both BLOWN OUT by the Pacers and Heat.

Impressive.

Moron.

I must have completely missed the Pacers` sweep of the Hawks.

Corbin wasn't fired. He should've been, he wasn't.
