Personal space

"Now I know, I know, your HCBW LOVES football, and was always yelling and screaming at games and that is why you fell in love with her. But remember, and be honest, you are in the minority, you make 6 figures, your wife is more in shape after 4 kids than when you were first married, and she loves football more than you, but a little less then your kids. Remember, you are the exception, not the rule."

"There was a prevailing notion amongst us athletes at that time that if you played well enough, the Brethren would actually give you a pass on missionary service because you were so important to the football or basketball program.

Given my performance in the Holiday Bowl, I went to Salt Lake that February evening in 1981 hoping that I could secure one of those exemptions.

Sadly, I learned that an 83-yard punt return that at the time was the Holiday Bowl record, was not enough.

But I also learned that no BYU football or basketball player or any other college athlete at BYU or anywhere else had ever been given an exemption from missionary service. I was told that the only person who had been given such counsel was Donny Osmond and I think his brothers. By 19, Donny was already a singing and TV megastar and his presence as a missionary anywhere in the world would have created chaos and be counter-productive to the work."
