I don’t recall the specifics, but I believe any asset transferred within the last couple of years of a person’s life are succeptible to the estate tax (for assets worth more than $4.5M?). I recall the Dodgers had to get sold to pay the taxes about 20 years ago. The Jazz are ‘worth’ somewhere between hundreds of millions, and billions of dollars,…[Read more]

My ‘new’ skis are old enough to drink. Salomon SL 207s. I used to ski ~200 days per year and was in instructor for several years, but it wasn’t until I moved away from Utah that I realized how nice it was to have a number of great resorts within a 45 minute drive. Now the nearest resorts are at least 2-1/2 hours away.

I still need to go up to Whistler.

He is going to freak out when everybody refuses to kneel and kiss his ring.

To be honest we are going to see some of the best comedy over the next few years.

If I was a coach I would have my star player walk around campus in a boot all week, leave him as TBD, close practices, and then unleash him at game time.

Yeah, it would probably go in the ‘Water is Wet’ category.

isn’t Brooks still out, or at least slowed down somewhat? At least we can hope.

This game will be a barn burner.

WSC is great. No worries.

The election is over and I am super happy the Clintons are gone out of D.C. and into history.

I assume by ‘repair international relations’ means simply telling the world that they had better do things we tell them to do, or else we will crush them with our economy or military. Just like in the good old days. That doesn’t sound much like an…[Read more]

When Mike Pence becomes the 46th president in a few months (after the Republicans impeach their own president over the Russian financial connections/influence) will they hold another inauguration event?

Asking for a friend.

Markannen is ridiculous. Can you imagine this team with him? I can’t see him sticking around after this year though.

Hah! Rich Ingebretsen was one of my favorite teachers. I took his Physics class sometime around 1994?

On one of the midterms in Ragsdale’s class I scored a 37%, and got the high score in the class. Good times.

If we tried a different play on those 4th and 1 plays in the 4th quarter, or kicked the FG instead, we would have been ahead with 1 minute left and trying to plunge in the dagger/run out the clock rather than trying to orchestrate a miracle comeback.

Grad transfer, 1 to play 1. It might be worth trying to get a Medical Redshirt, but this will be his 6th year.

Where will he coach in the NFL? He got fired from a dumpster fire he created in San Fran. This would be a great move for him because he doesn’t even need to move from his current home.

Alabama runs a spread offense that is run-heavy (run-pass-option). I think this is what Whittingham prefers.

We don’t really need an upgrade in philosophy as much as we need a change in individual skill development and situational play calling.

Yes, and that was a walk-on QB in what I believe was his first start.

Edit** He had 13 passes in game 11 in 2015 as a true FR, no passes in game 12.
