What the they Yewt is this half time show

Coug98

4:14pm

It’s a halftime show for those of us who are actually cultured.

RdF3

4:16pm

What in the Beyonce fever dream is going on here?

CSoul Hardcore Democrat

4:12pm

Beyoncé time.

TCuz Coastal Elite

4:10pm

RE: Beyoncé time.

Nuke

4:12pm

Hard pass…she bugs.

Coug98

4:14pm

Speaking of good players bad person. Favre is on that list

TNT

4:02pm

Well we can agree he’s a bad person.

lilpenny

4:12pm

He was the very definition of "gunslinger"

TNT

4:14pm

Question for you finance guys (It’s a Wonderful Life)

cougarblue

3:57pm

He had more cash reserves?

P-Boy Squad

3:59pm

What doesn't make sense?

RexIdaCoug

4:00pm

Shares (deposits). Not 50% on the notes (loans). If someone had shares/deposits

Manti

4:01pm

He's buying at a steep discount in a panic to obtain a controlling interest

Still Blue

4:04pm

All of those people that wanted money from

The Chief

4:09pm

Another interesting tidbit

The Chief

4:10pm

What BYU-themed gifts did people get this year?

Dr MoBYU

3:57pm

(Y) tie clip, royal blue flag

Ted Lasso

4:00pm

Hat and socks

El Careeb

4:03pm

There are five great teams: KC, BUF, BAL, PHI, DET

Coop

3:55pm

Minn has a better record over three of those teams

Lekker01

3:57pm

And there are doubts about the Vikings because of Darnold

TNT

3:58pm

darnold singlehandedly saved my fantasy season.

TN_Coug

4:09pm

So guys on teams that save your fantasy season are legit teams?

TNT

4:12pm

Their schedule has been garbage. It’s nice to play the AFC South and NFC West…

Coop

4:00pm

They’ve played pretty much the same schedule as the Lions and played the Lions close

Nuke

4:13pm

I think if Cincy makes it into the playoffs they could turn some heads

HimmerFredette

4:00pm

The Rams lost to the Lions in OT and have beaten both the Bills and MN. If Puka

YbeatsU

4:10pm

Santa was nice. I now have a Jimmer signed basketball to add to my Steve Young and Ty Detmer signed footballs.

SierraCoug All-American

3:42pm

I have a football signed by the entire 1984 natty team

HimmerFredette

3:44pm

Actual signatures, or the printed ones?

byubyu

4:05pm

I’m not sure

HimmerFredette

4:08pm

SWEET. I have the student shirt signed by a few players and Mendenhall from 2006. John Beck wrote BYU 33 Utah 31 on it.

JarJarBeeps

3:59pm

Houston just wanted another safety

HimmerFredette

3:41pm

Where does Steve Young rank as NFL QBs

Archaea

3:39pm

Has to be top 50. Maybe top 25

HimmerFredette

3:41pm

Montana?

Archaea

3:41pm

What about him?

HimmerFredette

3:43pm

Where do rank him?

Archaea

3:43pm

Around 10

HimmerFredette

3:44pm

He was frustratingly timely and special

Archaea

3:45pm

Young or montana

HimmerFredette

3:46pm

Montana. I only liked SF when Young played

Archaea

3:52pm

Well I’m a cowboys fan so I have mixed feelings about that

HimmerFredette

3:54pm

TNT would say #2. But Mahomes is closing

TNT

3:59pm

Above Peyton? Really?

HimmerFredette

4:00pm

Yeah. Montana was incredibly clutch. Just like Brady

TNT

4:01pm

True. I think it is really close between Montana and Manning

HimmerFredette

4:03pm

Well and there are a bunch TNT never saw play. Bart Starr, Tarkenton, Staubach

TNT

4:05pm

There are a bunch I never saw play

HimmerFredette

4:07pm

Aikman is extremely overrated in TNT's book

TNT

4:09pm

He’s good. I am a cowboys fan so a bit biased

HimmerFredette

4:10pm

Best O-line in NFL history. Also had Michael Irvin and Emmitt Smith

TNT

4:13pm

Must be above Brady, because any legitimate list has Peyton #1.

bluecougar1985

4:08pm

Young in many ways revolutionized the QB position along with Randell Cunningham, but Young had a better command of the

specsauce

3:42pm

Ahead of his time, one of the first real dual threat QBs, put up good numbers

ArcticKat

3:54pm

Top 5

AF Cougar

3:42pm

Near the bottom.

The Pope

3:45pm

15-20 years ago, he often made top 10 all-time lists. Probably still top 15-20

STL

3:47pm

20 years ago he was probably top 5. But there have been a ton of QBs who have

Duke Silver

3:47pm

Yes, he lost years of production playing behind Montana

AF Cougar

3:53pm

But I bet Montana taught him a lot. He seems like a great mentor

HimmerFredette

3:58pm

Nope. He hated Steve. This is well documented. They made up a few years ago

TNT

4:00pm

Oh my bad

HimmerFredette

4:01pm

Steve Bono and Montana both seemed to have a thing against Young for a time

BYUBandfan

4:03pm

Bono and Montana both ended up moving to KC

BYUBandfan

4:04pm

RE: Nope. He hated Steve. This is well documented. They made up a few years ago

BYUBandfan

4:09pm

Definitely Top 50. This NFL.com article has him at 15

Revolution

3:48pm

I would go with Steve over Tom Brady any time.

BYUBandfan

3:58pm

Oh cmon. That is just a little too blue goggled

TNT

4:06pm

1994 Steve was incredible

Odysseus

4:14pm

He was. Brady has six (seven?) NFL rings and was crazy clutch

TNT

4:15pm

Top 10-15, but at his peak I’d say Top 5

Odysseus

4:03pm

My wife gave me a ton of BYU gear for Christmas. She asked me a while back what

rebelCoug

3:38pm

Love it. I got a big byu plush rug as my main gift. Perfect for man cave

Dr MoBYU

3:44pm

I got a Y umbrella and the football 100 year history book

BYUBandfan

4:00pm

Never seen a better Santa!

CougarCanuck76

3:18pm

The BYU NFL guys who get media attention represent the school incredibly well

vagabonder

3:41pm

Utah is Christmas University

Beggar

3:09pm

I thought they had a problem finding 3 wise men etc…

jollaksentie

4:10pm

Does any US airline have good food for long haul flights?

Archaea

3:09pm

Delta has been good for Comfort+ and above. IMO.

VegasCoug

3:17pm

When? I haven’t had a good meal in Delta in years.

Archaea

3:22pm

Last week they had chocolate pistachio bread pudding as the breakfast

lilpenny

3:29pm

i hope so, have a 15 hr flight in a couple weeks on Delta

Count Cougar

4:09pm

Delta is getting Shake Shack out of Logan. I thought the short rib is pretty

Scheduled to arrive: Delta One Lounge food

Archaea

3:25pm

Flying to Europe on American and home on British, was amazing the difference in food quality and quantity.

Jimo Dashen

3:36pm

I think a lot of it also has to do with caterers at the airports. I fly out of Delhi at least twice a year. Even on the

specsauce

3:48pm

Foreign airlines are subsidized and Americans value low cost over food/comfort

Perhaps too late today; visit your local nursing facility on Christmas

BlackBart

3:09pm

We bring a basket of treats to hand out at the local hospital every Christmas

misterpepper

3:32pm

One somewhat overlooked QB star

Archaea

3:05pm

Bradshaw was good, but not great. Not a Top 25 QB. Maybe not Top 50.

Japan Coug

3:07pm

4 SBs and 2 MVPs and not top 50?

Archaea

3:11pm

it’s just hard because he played in an era where passing stats weren’t great…

PHXSUNS31

3:13pm

Tough audience. His leadership was special.

Archaea

3:16pm

That I can’t speak on…I wasn’t alive

PHXSUNS31

4:04pm

Correct. There are 22 starters in football, and the QB is only on the field for

Japan Coug

3:14pm

Who are the other QBs that have multiple SB wins who are considered pedestrian?

SierraCoug

3:20pm

Troy Aikman wasn’t all that great, and he won 3 Super Bowls. He was better than

Japan Coug

3:24pm

So you define greatness only by stats, not leadership

Archaea

3:25pm

No, by the total package. But I do believe that Super Bowl wins are much more

Japan Coug

3:28pm

So Brady and Mahomes aren’t special?

Archaea

3:31pm

I didn’t say that. I think Mahomes is probably the best QB in NFL history.

Japan Coug

3:32pm

But his stats are pedestrian this year.

Archaea

3:33pm

He will end his career with Top 5-type stats in most advanced analytics, IMO. To

Japan Coug

3:35pm

Greatest QB’s today? Of Mahomes, Burrow, Allen, & Lamar only 1 has any rings

arcawley

3:32pm

I don’t think Aikman was better. They each had 9 seasons with adjusted passer

Odysseus

3:34pm

That’s fine, I don’t feel strongly about that point. I do feel strongly that

Japan Coug

3:39pm

Both considered better than Steve Young?

Archaea

3:40pm

Only 13 QBs have won an MVP and a Super Bowl in their careers. Bradshaw is one

Odysseus

3:49pm

He won 2 SB MVP

Archaea

3:21pm

He won 4 Super Bowls. Eli Manning will likely be in the HOF too, having won two.

Japan Coug

3:33pm

I suspect the downgrading of Bradshaw is recency bias

Archaea

3:38pm

I thought that of Bradshaw back when I was in middle school. Only difference is

Japan Coug

3:43pm

You have to look at eras. Barr Starr has poor stats

Archaea

3:45pm

Bart Starr was much better than Bradshaw.

Japan Coug

3:54pm

QB ratings are always subjective, but most publications I reviewed have Bradshaw between 15-20 on list of all-time best

SierraCoug

3:50pm

Bradshaw is not top 10

HimmerFredette

3:13pm

I think he’s neck and neck with Elway when adjusting for the eras they played in

Odysseus

3:37pm

I thought Elway was much better than Bradshaw.

TNT

KVN with the call-out: “having an All-Pro type season”. And then he gets a sack,

If he could have gotten to Baltimore sooner than he did and played most of his career there, I think we’d be talking

specsauce

2:54pm

How many more seasons does he have in him?

Recipefordisaster

2:56pm

Probably 2 or 3 at best. Maybe just 1.

Japan Coug

2:57pm

I’m guessing he will play another 2 seasons as long as the Ravens are contenders.

specsauce

3:04pm

Hopefully he at least makes the Pro Bowl this year. He deserves it for sure.

Who was the fantasy MVP?

PHXSUNS31

2:42pm

Chase

Hup

2:45pm

I think given draft capital it was Saquon, who was going around the turn.

TCuz

2:46pm

I tend to think Saquon too…I’m in two championships and have him in both

PHXSUNS31

2:47pm

Barkley went for $45 in my draft. Hardly a steal for my league. JT went for $49

DKN

3:07pm

How much did CMC go for? Saquon would fetch the highest dollar in hindsight

PHXSUNS31

3:10pm

$60 in my $200 (standard league), and that’s only RB6. A steal. CMC went for $79, Hall $73.

Do you think planes will ever go the way of movie theaters and just make every seat premium/luxury?

Jimo Dashen We few, we happy few

2:39pm

The used to be premium and luxury and have gone the opposite direction. The market demands low fares.

Skeptical Optimist

2:40pm

its swinging the other way since covid. Airlines are outfitting planes, particularly long haul ones with more premium

TN_Coug

Southwest is going back to premium seating because everyone hated it and Delta flights were packed.
