ScottyIce Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I think we are going to have to take this one into our own hands this time guys. Anyone willing to set something up and we can get it rolling on the internet? I think we could get 250k easy to sign it. 4 Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Here's a link with some decent info about creating an online petition and how to do it successfully. For anyone that is interested in getting the ball rolling. http://billmoyers.com/story/sign-save-world-online-petitions-explained/. Seems you want to specifically target it and have an endgame in mind before you start. I didn't research it much or read the whole article so there may be better resources. I think preserving our traditional Black Friday game is worth it. I'd sign it. Quote Link to comment
HuskerInLostWages Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I'd sign it as well. Quote Link to comment

Hunter94 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 a chance for the fans to be heard? i like it too. Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 Someone more intelligent than I, needs to get this going! I swear, Mike Riley cares about tradition, if he sees there is a petition with even 25k signatures on it, he will change his stance. I think he just maybe doesn't realize that this is important to the fanbase. Quote Link to comment

chainsaw Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I will vote against, keeping the game on friday, when the game actually meant something, the teams had the weekend off in advance. only been the last few yrs where it was a short week! we have enuff injuries; we don't need to ask for more!

Most informal polls I've seen are being led by the 'I don't really care' group. Severe's poll has about 1,400 votes and 42% chose "It's fine, don't care." Quote Link to comment

But given the lack of apathy around the program lately, I guess they're pretty spot on. Quote Link to comment

You could've asked me 15 years ago and my answer would still be that I don't really care. I might be in a minority in that regard, but it's true for me. 1 Quote Link to comment
The Maudfather Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Put me in the I don't care camp. Why does it matter if we play on Black Friday? It's not like we're playing Colorado or OU. 1 Quote Link to comment
Street Novelist Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Playing the day after Thanksgiving is something I have always looked forward to. My dad and I would eat leftovers while all the crazies would be out shopping. It's tradition; that's why eliminating it bothers me. 1 Quote Link to comment
Hoosker Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I don't care about Black Friday, despite it being played every year of my life. I'm with Maud. It's not Oklahoma or Colorado. They plan on rotating the final week opponent every few years. It will eventually be Nebraska-Wisconsin and Iowa-Minnesota for a few years. Thus, completing the quadrangle of hate. Think bigger picture on this. 1 Quote Link to comment
