It’s an open secret that the NCAA hates BYU women’s sports

Who qualifies as the old guard?

Jesus. When He is gone, BYU will play on Sunday. Mark it down.

Good point, sabbath day and other commandments are so passé.

Cougarclaw

The commandment is to keep the sabbath day holy. It’s not “Don’t play a sport on a Sunday.”

I dont think Tom Holme and Kevin Worthen have final say on that change

Do you also consider working on Sunday to be breaking the sabbath?

RdF3

5/15/22 7:02pm

Yes. Though if the ox is in the mire, it's ok to break

Do you consider playing a game on Sunday a necessity?

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

Working on Sunday isn’t a “necessity”.

Tell that to a police officer. Or a firefighter. Or a paramedic. Or a nurse

Why not choose a different profession if your work requires you to break

So if he works on Sunday he isn’t keeping the SDH? Good to know those that work

That’s my point. You do what has to be done on Sundays. That includes playing in the tournament if you have to.

RdF3

5/16/22 9:17am

So your point is both NICU nurses working on Sunday and Tournament play HAS TO BE DONE because they're comparable and

You don't have to. You can make the personal choice.

Well I hope you’re around in 30 years when it happens.

I'm not even 30. So yeah, I should be. You're so obviously wrong here.

You’ll probably be flabbergasted to learn that the church requires people to work on the sabbath.
