What's new

if we get Jabari Parker....we might have to wait 2 years for him to actually play....what.

Can't the LDS Church make Jabari play for the Jazz and Jazz alone? Isn't Monson a season ticket holder? If the Pope can get G-d to help his soccer team win the Argentine championship, I don't see why Monson can't just threaten Parker with a shunning or something.
 
Personally, I would rather Jabari play for another team because of threads like this one.

Besides, he could potentially do more good in the "mission field", playing for another team.

It's also the same reason I didn't want Jimmer to play for the Jazz.

Plus, he'd be a big distraction; both Jimmer and Jabari would.

Jabari would be a distraction? Why? Because he would be the most talented on our team? The franchise player we need?

I get Jimmer being a distraction despite not having much NBA talent. Some fans will always think that he can do no wrong and should be playing more. So yeah, I get that. But Jabari?

You're talking about one of the best prospects since King James.

The same. Signing up for Annapolis has the weight of law behind it. You may not change your mind. A "mission" is always undertaken of one's free will and i would think could be terminated simply by asking to be released. Any RM's out there can answer this?

Yes, you can certainly always come home from your mission early if that's what you choose to do. A couple of guys in my ward have done that recently for various reasons.
 
We'll be like Jabari's high school girlfriend who promises to wait for him to come home, but then gets married like a week after he's gone to some returned missionary she just met. And the whole time he's like, I got myself a girl waiting for me, just get through this next two years. And then he gets home and we're like, sorry bro.

Wow, does that really happen? That's messed up...I thought Mormon girls were faithful to their men.
