Geez. How long has TNT been saying Catchings wasn't returning?

TNT

wasn't ever exactly a hot take.

Mayor of Cougartown

For whatever reason some CBers took exception to it

Has TNT ever said anything some CBers haven't taken exception to?

CougaRR4L

I don’t know how you separate, Moab, Arches NP and Delicate Arch. Those are basically the same to me, and very iconic.

Okay, I probably won't need an LLC, but a separate bank account may help me to

dYrtbYkerYder

Rental property should be in an LLC. The LLC will be disregarded for income tax

LLC's are pass through entities. You will still pay taxes on it as investment

LLC will be disregarded if set up properly. Real estate should NEVER be held in

Does anyone know what happened to Kurt Branham Barton?

Probably pardoned by Trump. If I had to guess.

More likely pardoned by Biden's staffer with control of the auto-pen.

Yeah, that's probably it actually. Chambers better than Van Horn.

mokelembembe

How about Kyle Kuzma?

BigHouse Coug

He still has one of the best in-game dunks in NBA history from when he was with the Suns.

Funny how a lot of black guys have listed that as one of their all time favorites.

I think I am higher on Richie than most. He’s unbelievable.

Would like if Richie was 2nd or 3rd best player on BYU team next yr. Would bet he'd like that too. BYU w/b 1 or 2 seed.

Mostly agree, but if you grew up next to a university, say your dad worked there

ldssdl

12:52pm

I think BYU has an expanded "we" that is unique, which can include members of the church.

jdub

12:53pm

I don't really care who people root for or why they root for them.

I do. I am the fandom police. 🚨🚔🚨

Right, why worry about sticking a square peg in a round hole?

You can't or your yankees fandom would cause you to spontaneously combust.

My parents went to BYU. I didn't go to college. Am I cool to cheer for them or

CougarTwins

You should keep your rooting energies focused on the high school you attended.

That seems even more offensive, until I realized that "Redhawk" is a totally

Unless you went to Utah.

I cheer against ND. I was an MBA student there, not an athlete.

TheLoanArranger

Free Ride? You are referring to their place in the broader CFB pecking order?

RoboKayne

1:12pm

I did my MBA there and I cheer for them, if only casually

Himni

That can be okay though. My little brother grew up a BYU fan, but ended up at

RealSimsShadY

Completely disagree. A ton of people grow up rooting for a team because of

ATX

12:54pm

As did I, and then I honored my father and mother by attending their alma mater.

TCuz

Circumstances don’t always allow that. It doesn’t mean you should drop your team

I would rather use the pronoun "werf", but that has not gotten any traction.

So you think that 2 years of being at a school should make me stop cheering for

I have never set foot on the campus of my undergraduate degree

BYUFam1

People who have not attended college don't get to be fans?

JimmyZ

1:13pm

Lesser fans or something like that. It’s a half-baked take. We are workshopping it.

TCuz

1:16pm

You mean you came up with it while you were half baked

ATX

1:20pm

What about current or retired employees of said school?

At that point, only down 4, I really thought BYU had a great chance to win

And then we clawed within 8 with 15 min to go, only to watch another barrage of made 3's

Indy Coug

12:53pm

Does KY want a Fouss replacement? Or does he want a second Keita?

CrimWalCoug

1:05pm

I'd think he'd want a back to the basket big like Fouss. Was a great counter

Hup

There's a reason why the NBA has gone away from low-post players. More likely
