Pretty offensive to 99.99 % of people named Karen, isn't it?

BYUBandfan

8/12/22 9:14am

If they take offense to that the name probably suites them well.

8/12/22 9:22am

Yes, all Karen’s and Brandens have had a recent spell of bad press

DJROSS

8/11/22 10:05am

Just over a year and a half ago. Went home and shaved.

8/11/22 10:09am

Correction- it was a little over 2 years ago

8/11/22 10:40am

Dang, I think I had to do that once. ‘‘Twas a long walk to shave and return.

The question shouldn't be, "Why do athletes get preferential treatment"...

I had a beard as an adjunct. I was told by one of the people who recruited me that I didn’t have to shave if I was

Guess I will tell the bishop in the ward I visited a couple weeks ago. He and one of his councilors are full bearded.

Yeah, but they’re doing a church film.

Sounds like she isn't up on the changes to dress and grooming for cultural sensitivity reasons

8/11/22 9:46am

Is that actually spelled out in the HC? I hope so because that is

Doesn’t seem right to discriminate among “cultures.”

It was in that diversity study at BYU.

Good advice, but aren't the players just expressing themselves, too?
