And that begs the question; why would a China man, or Asian folk in general, have an inside track to contending for a B1G football league title? Has this demographic historically dominated the B1G conference? How does one win league titles while residing in hell? So many questions. Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 BTW- well advised deletion. Yeah, I saw it. Those type of things earn vacays. Well I take that back. Looks like the mods are being proactive and fast. Link to comment

Yesterday was the first game for a lot of teams. Some looked much better. I honor the Nebraska tradition by expecting something great every week. 1 Link to comment

krc1995 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Can we all step back and pay tribute to the best onside kick I've ever seen? Whew! 6 Link to comment
Xmas32 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Someone has clearly hijacked the OP's account. There haven't been any posts complaining about the O-Line in 24 hrs. Can someone drive out to Central Nebraska and make sure Marco Polo isn't dead in a field somewhere? Link to comment

I don't think the OP made any statement that the china man he was referring to was an American with chinese ancestry. It's entirely possible that the one he was referring to was indeed a "China" man and therefore calling them Asian-American would make no sense. See, this is what I'm talking about. Something gets taken out of context, the next thing you know, we're calling for coaches heads because somebody believes that chinese folks have a less than desirable chance of surviving the perils of hell when compared to non-chinese folks. 2 Link to comment

This isn't a guy who built the railroads here. This is a guy... Link to comment
In the Deed the Glory Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I don't understand why the reference in the original post was even necessary at all. Gives you a window into the thoughts of an individual when you read that. 2 Link to comment

Sgt Red Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I'm pretty sure the Irish helped with the building of the railroads. My ancestors did. They also never won a Big 10 title! Link to comment

They got the bounce they needed on that one that's for sure. No one offsides either. Also I think Huskerboard needs a case of butthurt cream sent over STAT. 1 Link to comment
In the Deed the Glory Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Does anyone think we may need some cream? Quickly? Like STAT? Link to comment
southernoregonhusker Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Blinders? I've been saying 6 or 7 wins and that our program has lacked talent for years. I've been ridiculed by many. Blinders? Not this guy. Link to comment
