Talk about a dedicated wife… The music certainly stops here…
Excite: Utah Jazz owner Larry Miller says he won’t attend Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals because it’s being played on a Sunday.
Miller, a member of the Mormon church, says he won’t attend because of religious reasons. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints encourages members to avoid non-religious activities on Sundays.
Miller told The Salt Lake Tribune he probably won’t watch the game on TV or listen on radio, but his wife might watch the game and give him updates while he takes a long drive.
The Lakers-Jazz game will be Utah’s first Sunday home game since the 2001 playoffs.
Loading ...
….because he knows the Jazz will lose.
too bad he’s gonna miss the Jazz last game of the season.
Well it would be Game 3 HiYo20, but he would still miss a beating by the Lakers
…………….LOL………………
Nah it’s religious reasons and I respect him for sticking by it.
How many of you that are religious would want to work over church or worship? Ok, maybe I shouldn’t ask. All I’m saying I could see a lot of ignorant responses to this. But then again, as a basketball fan, almost sounds crazy.
I know its religious reasons and im with you , many people say bad stuff about him, and Wow his wife is cool
that could help the jazz win
props to being sincere…
but he is sincerely wrong.
LDS is a cult.
Go Lakers !
No Joke, the man has good intentions but Mormonism is a cult but oh well. go lakers.
no comment..I respect the jazz president..and whats the big deal if he’s going to miss it..Maybe, game 4 is the last game of the jazz this season and the president wont able to watch it.
GOODLUCK LAKERS!!!
BEAT UTAH!!!
Oopps..My bad..sorry..Jazz owner should i say, not president..anyway.
Lakers in 4!!!
GOODLUCK LAKERS!!!
BEAT UTAH!!!
What a bunch of crock! … Non religious activity???? Isn’t she of Mormon religion?…. If his wife watches the game, what does that make her? And if he (Larry Miller) refuses to even listen to the game from the radio, but receives reported ongoing updates from his wife, through cell phone calls or other communication. WHAT IS THIS?….Like I said before, a BUNCH OF PLAYING-THE-GAME-APPEARING-HOLIER-THAN-THOU BUNCH OF CROCK.
Yeah, thats a shame.
yea n hes making the team consist of all white people
and the fans are all WHITE
Anyone who thinks that mormonism is a cult is a person who is utterly mis-informed. It’s one of the most widely known, and is the most fastest growing Christian church in the the world. Make no mistake. Learn for yourself from an actual member of the church, and don’t rely on such a stereotype. GO LAKERS!! MVP BABY!
Brett… I was raised in Latter-Day Saints Church my friend since birth. My closest
friends and some family members are Bishops. Not only my own but I have been involved
with over 6 different International mission trips. I’ve taught and spoke at several different
Latter-Day Saints symposiums and conferences and was on the board for (2) important committees
regarding funding for Jesus Christ Church of Latter-Day Saints properties in California..
…..so I can understand
your position and thoughts… but please sincerely understand that today I say to you that Mormonism is
a cult. Joseph Smith was an amazing deceiver and no longer should Mormonism borrow the term of Christianity
as it is not. Because a following is “growing” does not make it right or truthful. Enron was one of the fastest
growing publicly traded entities. Much respect, but I speak to you from experience.
go lake show.
Wow that is what you call devotion!!! i personaly would not miss it for anything in the world.TO ME BASKETBALL IS LIKE A SECOND RELIGION!!!
loser.
I feel so sorry for you sk. You must be so confused.
Bret- read your statement again. you claim that being mormonism being a cult is misinformed. you asked to learn from a member in the church. and you ride the coattails of the term of “Christian” church and being one of the “fastest growing.”
again it is clear to me that you are not so much confused but mislead.
Me confused? I like to think educated, but it may be possible that I am confused. Is it frightening to question the very foundation of your upbringing? to pull the drapes back to see behind the thoughts of the LDS org? to actually ask the assumptions of Joseph Smith and his claims and what is kept from you? All this in SLC, Utah?
I will say that you can never be subjective until you really choose to be subjective.
