What's new

** What if? Lebron and the Jazz/ is it that off track??**

If you're just joining Gyp, Vinyl thinks Utah is "weird" for it's lack of diversity, hence the "weird" black ppl comment.

To Thriller...I have friends in Canada. He is white and his wife is black. They lived in Utah for a while and said she felt very comfortable there, and everyone was very nice to her. I would bet if you ask any of our black jazz players they would tell you the same.

I take it you have liberal leanings, so the state being highly conservative bothers you.
 
I'm not Mormon and I live in Utah. It just really isn't that weird.

I'm moving to CA in a couple weeks, OMG GONNA be soooo weird!!

Just to be perfectly clear, we don't want you here.

Don't forget you have to tell your parole office so he can update the predator website.
 
If I went to the deep South would it be "weird" that there are a lot of black ppl there, or just something that's new to me?

What the ****. This is what you think makes a place weird?

You think I think Utahr is weird because of a lack of diversity? Laughable. Nah, bro, it's weird because of the religious culture that permeates the Utahr lifestyle in almost every facet. A religion, mind you, that is also incredibly different than most mainstream religions.

So it's weird cuz you say it's weird. Gotcha.

I think you're weird cuz you're not like any of my friends.

You ever travelled outside the country bro? Most of the world would consider Los Angeles very very weird.

Every place on earth is different and has a different culture, glad you are comfortable in yours.

Places that are unfamiliar are weird. Utah and SLC area in general are even more unfamiliar to a large amount of people because of the religious culture. Few people have lived in a similar place as there are not very many. Therefore, Utah is classified as weird to a larger amount of people than most states. That seems to make sense to me.

I don't really consider it weird. I just call it Utah.

Sidenote: I generally don't like using the word 'weird'. Although, I'm sure the word was not intended to be demeaning, society has made it that way. Shows an etic perspective of things imo, and I like to avoid that kind of stuff.

Back to TAH: But 'weird' seems a viable descriptor in this case.
 
PS: I can honestly say that the Mormon religion (which I believe is a false religion and I do not agree with in any way) affects my life almost zero.

Maybe it has a bigger effect on out of towners who come to visit, but for me they are just friendly neighbors living a different lifestyle than me.

Newsflash: Lebron is staying with Miami. I'm not going to bother posting the numbers, but a MAX contract in Miami is worth >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>$ than a MAX contract anywhere less. Lebron demanded Miami draft Napier. They did. He demanded concessions from Wade and Bosh; he's getting those.

Had to check about 10 times to make sure it was actually Core4 who said this. You will all tell your kids about this someday.

Don't believe me? Prove me wrong.
You must be religious.

And just as an FYI, for bookkeeping purposes, cap holds are also in place for Jefferson, Williams and Rush. Those will need to be renounced.
Lebron was all set to come to town. But the deal stalled when Lindsey realized he would have to let these 3 go.

Now I just had to look up the booze laws in Utah. They were actually very similar to the ones we have in Norway, so I`d take the max and move to the city of Utah at once.
I guess it's settled then.

Is Utah weirder than Idaho?

IF I had a choice, I'd probably move to Texas. Wife and I have discussed it. But don't worry...I won't desert the Jazz and become a Rocket, Mav or Spurs fan. And I DETEST the Cowboys.
Thanks for reassuring us. We really got worried for a minute.





Seriously the worst thread I have ever read through. I had several more quotes check marked but apparently there is a limit. I hate you all for making me read this, and hate you even more for making me respond.
