He's going to be under tremendous pressure to be a hero and a success and reflect well on the Church. Not every day a Mormon is picked #2 overall in the NFL draft.

But then ... he's in New York.

Be interesting to see how this plays out.

Given it's the Jest, I doubt it plays out well.

I'm gonna bet that they wish they had one spot higher in the draft. Trevor Lawrence is possibly the most NFL-ready quarterback to ever be drafted. You never can tell, though - a lot of "can't miss" players turn out to be Ryan Leaf. TL is about to go waste his career in Jacksonville.

teammates feel about protecting a white supremacist. He'll be on his back looking up more than he ever did before.

Massive Religious Pilgrimages in India
During a Pandemic
What a bunch of Maroons
Same with 93% of the world
All inflicted with the God Delusion

Humans are a very primitive species
We don't stand a chance against CoVid
And the coming pandemics
Born of Climate Change

We don't stand a chance against Climate Change
And the worsening pandemics are all part of it
Mass Extinction Event
Humankind included
By our own hand
