To be honest I am not sure exactly what two utes was trying to say with this post. I don't know max hall or why he came home from a mission. I'm not sure if you are automatically mentally weak if you couldn't complete your mission I can however see how people might question your toughness.

To rip on a player being mentally weak because he shortened his mission makes no sense.

Might as well rip on those who too mentally weak to not give it a go in the first place. However, that makes no sense either.

It's maybe the gayest argument in the rivalry yet.

Isn't it refreshing that we live in a day and age when prominent LDS athletes can return early from missions with no shame?

We are making progess.

I think. :???:

We have come a long way. Back in my day it was better to join the ARmy and head off to Viet Nam than come home early from a Mission.

However, I have heard some claim there is not enough stigma with coming home early from missions now. That is the live the gospel through guilt and shame crowd and they are alive and well.
