No, you are distorting something I said on Utefans. I take special interest in Foster as a Ute fan. But as an abstract proposition I believe there are better uses of one's time than spending two years on a Mormon mission. I honestly believe that, and I might add that most people would agree with me, and they are not disproportionately comprised of bad people. None of my children, including my two sons, will be playing for the Utes, and I won't be encouraging any of them to go on missions. This doesn't make me evil; only in a very few places, relatively speaking, would I be considered such for holding this view.
