      Seems silly to leave 70 degree weather to play baseball, not to mention the year round golf scene, but the boy wants to be a Husker.

  3. Replay of NC volleyball game 9pm tonight on ESPU.  Hope it’s in entirety. Only 2 hours tonight. Maybe it’s part 1. Lol.

      It was unbelievable.  And yes, I still watch Titanic :(

       

  4. Is there a reply of the volleyball game? Would like it in its entirety and not the condensed version. I forgot to DVR it

      I'd keep my eye here.  I would imagine they'll post up the match in the next few days since both semifinals are on there.

  6. Jake Meyers had himself quite a day at the plate. Hate the Stros, but maybe a little less since he was called up. 

  7. Garth at Memorial Stadium is an interesting thought. Not a huge fan, but I heard he puts on a good show.  Interested in what a full capacity crowd will be.

      I'm not particularly fond of country music or Garth Brooks. I respect the heck out of the industry and the successful musicians, but the music just doesn't do much for me.

       

      That said, the Garth Brooks concert I went to in Omaha in 2015(?) was hands down one of the best shows I've ever been to. Just from a pure performance and crowd engagement standpoint, he's the man. You can always appreciate when a performer commands a stage and an audience and he's one of those people.

      Exactly why I love Neil Young. Definitely not my musical taste, but he so commanded the stage that now I’m a fan. 

  8. Khalil Davis is 308 and runs a 4.75. That’s a lot of mass running at TE speed. 

  9. Pandora or Spotify? Had Spotify for years and we enjoy it, particular great suggested playlists and weekly playlist that Spotify generates based off of saved music, but just noticed that Pandora and xmradio have a package. Just wondering if Pandora is similar?

      Lol. I googled a comparison and I think I would hate Pandora.

      Both are good. But really, all you need is a sony walkman, and some good mix tapes.  But sometimes I prefer a boombox to carry around.  Either way, can't go wrong, it's all good

      @admolife was definitely much better when you had to wait for your jam to come on the radio.

      I thought you couldn't fire guy after a year?

  11. Lenovo yogi Chromebook versus Apple Mac Pro? Mac book appears to me to be about 125 more (best buy for Yogi, Costco for Mac). For an 8th grader that needs at least a Chromebook. And it appears that the software doesn’t even come with either like the old days and you have to buy it with an annual subscription. Thoughts? I didn’t realize you could get a Mac Pro for 75O. Thought they were around the 1200 mark.

      I bought a 169 dollar Chrome Book.  Does everything you need.  It doesn't look real pretty but neither does all the por...websites I look up.

      That linked laptop isn't half bad actually but yeah... $1,700 is a lot and I think it'd be more for someone who was primarily interested in a good gaming laptop with mobility (i.e. someone who travels or doesn't have the space for a desktop). You'd probably save money getting a Chromebook and just one of the new XBOX or PS5 consoles, if there was still an interest in getting them something for gaming.

      Agree. Cant find that Xbox, but that’s good. School comes first.

      If you have access to the Big Ten Network, Nebraska/PSU will be on the 'Big Ten in 60' program at:

       

      11/14/20--8pm CST

      11/17--11am CST

      11/18--1am CST, 4pm CST

      This sucks. All I can find is highlights.  I’ll do the in 60 thing but it is locked down. 

  14. Don’t play with me- that was you and not me, right? My tech confidence is already fragile at best anyway. 

  15. And now back to the bad- Joe Morgan has passed. 

  16. Proud parent moment- as I was reheating my leftover am coffee at 5pm, 13 year old son says “that’s like drinking beer at 7 am-why would you do that?”  I told him they both have their place and you’ll find out in college.

      Ha...No I have not heard of that!

       

      I have started to like 11am games especially if I am going to Lincoln.  It is fun getting up early and starting the party.

    3. Xmas32

      Xmas32

      11am games for me are a close second behind a big game at night.  I rarely go to games anymore so for me the 11am slot is terrific.  I get to watch Nebraska and then get on with my day.

      And Alexandria is the Nebraska one. Down by Hebron. Pretty place. Would have never have heard of it had it not been for the yearly road rally. A road rally is a treasure hunt by car/truck. Most trucks had picnic tables in the bed full of beer drinkers. They provided a series of clues that you would go find out on the back roads.  First one back to the bar and the vehicle that drove it in the fewest miles were the winners. As clear as yesterday I remember coming in last in time and distance. We finished in 4 hours- the winner 1.5. The distance was 13 miles- we were 60
       

      good times. Wore out the Weezer and Better Than Ezra tapes I think. 

  17. Hey everyone- IT'S DERBY DAY!  lol. I loathe this year

  18. I think we're going to use more TE's in the future

      The joke response is, "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em."  :lol:

       

      But I think with these two we're going to see some deadly offense in the next few years. Can't wait.

  19. Would Alex Gordon have the same legacy and career had he not been a Royal?

      He did crush AA. I think the Royals might have moved him up too fast, but it all worked out in the end. 2011-2016 was a fun time. 

    3. ColoradoHusk

      @krc1995 the Royals probably did move Gordon up to the majors too quickly, but they were also hurting for attendance during that time, and knew that Gordon being up in KC would bring droves of fans from Nebraska to go to games.

       

      As a Royals fan, I am very happy with the way his career turned out, and how he was a big component to their World Series teams in 2014 and 2015, especially the World Championship in 15.

      Scherzer vs. Gordon 2005 ish. Missouri 1-0. Gordon only guy to get a decent bat on it. 

  20. Recommendations for a headset with a mic? Cheap as possible. I need to record training on Google Meet. My new work computer doesn’t have a mic or a camera, so I bought a cheap camera. Works fine for picture, but audio quality is not good. I’m hoping I can use the camera but override the mic with something of higher quality.

      I don’t think my voice carries much and want to eliminate background noise. I’m not sure how to mirror my computer screen for the recording- using the google product like screenomatic or something- and I need a document camera/ which I guess can be my camera but then they will not have my face, just the remnants of my super sweet voice.

      Have you looked at the free version of Zoom? You may be limited in length (last I checked, free version only allowed for maybe 45 minutes of incremental use) but it can do a whole recording of your voice + screen. Another option would be if you have Quicktime on your computer - I know the Mac version allows for screen recording.

      I got you.  Corsair Void Elite Surround.  Single USB input, pretty good background noise reduction, comfortable enough to wear for a long time, and a pretty good price point.

  21. It’s like a Flat Stanley conference.

      This status has been up for most of a week and I cannot figure out what it's about. @krc1995

      No worries - I'll leave a link to the thread HERE.

       

      I think it's OK to have status updates like this even there's a thread. We generally let that kind of thing slide since the status updates move along pretty quickly and this story will be of high interest :) .

  23. If you’ve wondered- yes, you should wear pants to that virtual job interview.

      I wish I could have added #staytotheend for whomever reviewed my video.  Last 30-40 seconds of my video job interview via HireVue went to hell. Last question, pounding at the door starts- then doorbell ringing- I jump up to -well I don’t know what I guess tell the kid to scram- only I have my work interview suit  on top and pj shorts on bottom. Then it auto submitted   It was going well too. 

  24. Advice on feeding a 13 year old boy. I may have to give him up. An entire Costco box Of 17 hot pockets in a week. That’s in addition to his normal ration of 5 meals a day.

      My 13 yr old went through a half dozen eggs and a pound of bacon last night.  He makes it himself so I'm not complaining to much.  My wife has to hide her salmon that she buys cause he will eat all of it if she doesn't.

      Damn, all those Hot Pockets! You must be going through toilet paper at the same rate!

      Ha ha!  Been there done that.  At 13 I could eat a ton of food and stay the same weight.  If I ate 17 hot pocket in a week now I'd gain ten pounds.  lol

        

  25. Anyone see a pack of drones out their windows this week? Some weird stuff going in the York area.
