Jimmer Fredette more popular than a return missionary

I bet there are girls who decide where they were gonna live, just to be in his ward.

GLENS FALLS -- Jimmer Fredette has stopped going to classes at Brigham Young University.
That is not unusual for college basketball stars who plan to make their living in the NBA, but in this case it was the school that requested it.
"It was getting too disruptive," said Al Fredette, Jimmer's father, who explained that Jimmer's fame in Provo, Utah, has led to constant requests for autographs and photographs. "He can't go anywhere in Provo without being recognized."
He now does all his schoolwork online.
Fredette has become a national celebrity over the past few months and has been named almost everyone's national collegiate basketball player of the year.
He is in Los Angeles this weekend where the winner of the John Wooden Award was announced Friday night and he appeared Thursday night on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" with University of Connecticut star Kemba Walker.
The Fredettes have been working through the process of selecting an agent who will represent their son after he is drafted.
"During the tournament, we would have agents surround us before the game and at halftime," said Al Fredette.
"It was a little bit embarrassing," said Jimmer's mother, Kay Fredette.
The Fredettes said the plan is to narrow the agents to five and then have Jimmer sit down and interview them before making a choice.
There have also been offers to make appearances for a lot of money. The Fredettes said one corporation offered to pay Jimmer $20,000 and take care of all of his expenses to appear at an event in Miami. They said he turned it down.
He has also been invited to play in a prestigious celebrity golf tournament, even though he is a much better basketball player than golfer.
"They told him not to worry about it, that they would pair him with (former NBA star and now television commentator) Charles Barkley," said Al Fredette. "Apparently, Charles can't play at all."
The NBA draft is scheduled for June 23 and most analysts are predicting that Fredette should be about the 15th pick in the first round.
Al Fredette said he would love to see his son play for one of the regional teams like Boston, New York, New Jersey or Philadelphia.
"I'd love to see him play for Danny Ainge (in Boston), but they have (Rajon) Rondo," said Al Fredette. "Utah would be good, too, since my daughter lives there and we really know our way around out there."
The one thing that is quite certain is that Jimmer Fredette is going to be getting a big payday soon after he is drafted. Al Fredette, who is a financial planner, said the plan is for him to handle Jimmer's money.
"He should never have to worry about making a living for the rest of his life," said Al Fredette. "If his career blows up, there could be foundations and stuff and he could really help a lot of people and he has some ideas about that."

gold.

As far as I know, even Tebow was able to attend classes. I kind of feel sorry for Fredette a little bit here.

[RainMaker]

My brother taught a class that Tebow was in. Says he was a really nice guy and genuinely worked hard. This was when he was a Freshman or Sophomore I believe so probably didn't have the same popularity he did at the end.

Oh you have no idea

I got a sister who lives in Salt Lake. I heard the stories.

What's the old joke? What do mormon girls do? Everything a catholic girl does...but they don't smoke afterwards.

Dick soaking?

[JediKooter]

Is that same as penis washing?

[MJ4H]

This could be an interesting turn for the thread.

The amount of soaking needed in order to be an official dick soak is exactly proportionate to the time it would take a dirty dish to soak before being ready to scrub... or just before climax... whichever comes first.

note: If climax is reached during the soak it is no longer considered a dick soak, but sex.

[stevew]

Dola- read that somewhere but have no idea as to its truth.

[JediKooter]

The only thing that would make that kinky is if they were both wearing their mormon underwear.

[jeff061]

So if you pull out and release an almighty money shot on her face is that still honoring your faith? Or is climaxing forbidden no matter where thy penis may be pointed?

Fucking mormons man, they're great.

[Young Drachma]

See also, floating:

Floating is having intercourse without moving. Everything is the same, but the participants stay still and just make out. For some odd reason, they don't think this counts as actual sex.

[jeff061]

There was a time where I would call bullshit, but having heard stories from first hand witnesses that involved mormons dancing around chairs while naked and chanting(amongst others).....well the whole dick soaking thing actually seems rather conservative.

Now to be sure, this was an extremist mormon sect, but they are out there.

[JediKooter]

They are unique, that's for sure.

[Radii]

I knew more than one christian girl when I was in college who believed that anal and of course oral sex were perfectly fine loopholes around not having sex before marriage (ok, by more than 1, I mean 2). This "floating" practice may be tame by comparison if we're looking for ways people justify ignoring the rules of their faith so they can do what they want anyway.

So, if you can't move in any direction....how can you pull out?

If you go in and soak then come out, how do you have to wait before you go back in for it not to be considered sex?

What will they think of next?

[molson]

This is one of the more informational FOFC threads in recent memory.

[JediKooter]

We won't get into the whole baptizing the dead thing they do as that could confuse this thread with necrophilia.

I met plenty of the technical virgin blow job queens as well. I never did meet any chicks who were anal-only though. Like I'd surely think that sodomy was a worse sin than intercourse.

I wonder if muslim chicks do any of this crazy almost sex type stuff.

Money shot on the face just has to be a baptismal rite in some pagan religion.

Actually, now that you mention that. I do believe there are some tribes in either South America or in Africa (or somewhere else) that drinking the semen of the elders is a right of passage to adulthood.

[jeff061]

So you are saying there is a Catholic presence in africa and south america?

[JediKooter]

Yes, yes there is.

LOL, I am pretty sure that is a very islolated incident. There are extremist sects in the LDS faith (see Polygamy as well) just like many religions have.

I am not going to bash mormons as most are very nice people that have great family values and a very tight knit community that helps each other out.

There are also some quirks and I encountered some things living in Utah as a non-Mormon that annoyed me from time to time, but nothing major. Salt Lake City actually has more non-Mormons than Mormons, with Utah county (where Provo is) having the highest per capita poplulation in the state.

Also FWIW, I always Dick soak after sex while I catch my breath before rolling off my wife
