    Actually, I don't think it is so bad an idea. I don't think Rider would ever subject himself to something like that. However, that he would be willing to sign with the Jazz knowing Sloan's reputation would indicate that he's changed his mind-set in a dramatic way. And if he'd do it, than the Jazz could actually use him. I think it'd be more of an issue of Rider not taking the Jazz than the Jazz not taking Rider.

    I don't understand, Clutch. What's so funny about another thug playing for the Jazz?

    SLC is a racist town? How so? I just visited there and quite frankly those are some of the nicest people I've ever met in any city I've been to. Not to mention they've got some really nice lookin' women... as opposed to the skanky, make-up-drippin', fake implant containin', ho's I'm used to seeing around the DFW area... LOL!

    (My identity is hidden on here, right Clutch? Kewl.)

    Fake implants? They really must be skanky if they're not even decent enough to get real implants. LOL.

    I'm with DoD on Salt Lake City. I spent a week there on business and found it to be one of the most beautiful and cleanest cities I've ever been to. We walked all over downtown very late at night and never felt unsafe and never had trouble finding entertainment or good places to eat. It was a very "white" town, but I don't know how anybody can make the leap to calling it a racist town.

    You Dallas guys need to get to Houston more often. NOW THERE is some beautiful women!

    On SLC, I have a friend there that says the city kind of reminds him of that movie, "The Stepford Wives" Kind of creepy. [​IMG]

    It is definitely a question of Rider being able to accept a tenure in Salt Lake City. The Jazz would accept him in a heartbeat. Look at Karla-how many times has he offended the entire state of Utah in the offseason, but then was totally forgiven in the first game of the season? Personalities don't mean anything. As far as Salt Lake City goes, it is NOT a racist place. I live here, and although it is a horrible place when it comes to sports, it is not racist.
