I usually wait til he’s gone and break in his garage. It’s how I got a Wii.

Says the leader of the party who actively embraces the death penalty... Our idiot governor had to give the entire state the run around and import the necessary drugs from overseas so we could prove how manly and tough on criminals we are. I used to support capital punishment. Now it just seems barbaric and wrongheaded.

TM isn't responsible for the run imo.... hope the kids continue though. They are playing with fire and heart that we haven't seen for several weeks. The right coach would have been getting that out of them all along.

Miles should know better than mess with good mojo. Obviously he should have ate s#!t on camera again

He is visiting again to check out spring practice

I have an idea. You can gather up all of those bottles. Put them in some boxes or maybe burlap sacks

I was just talking to my girlfriend earlier about Graham and Cruz (who voted No on the motion disapproving the emergency declaration). Are there more disappointing, utterly spineless embarrassments to actual principled conservatism than these two? During the 2016 primaries, they both CORRECTLY told us who Trump actually was. Go back and find the quotes - they were truthful and unsparing. Then they realized they have to pretend he's some awesome conservative hero fighting the good fight and support him in order to keep their jobs. They sold out. Period. Meanwhile, in other disappointing conservative news, Nebraska's favorite son... His pet issue is Congress giving too much power away to the president, for God's sake.

Every big run was a blown assignment, or very near. Injuries weren’t a massive problem, but enough of one, especially in the front 7. That leaves a guy like Carlos trying to hold up at NG, which he can’t really do. Gifford is trying to be a pass rusher, which he really isn’t. So on and so forth. Colorado was the healthiest we were all year, and while we made enough mistakes to lose, it was also the game we were the most creative. As we had to move people around more, we had to simplify, too. Chinander has some good tricks in his bag, and I’m sure Tuioti brought some of Cal’s with him. There were also some poor personnel choices, partly due to that. Safeties lining up on the LOS against Michigan’s jumbo sets, but playing 2 deep against a QB that can’t pass vs Illinois. I’m quite sure from what we’ve already heard this spring that Frost and Chinander will better adjust to the diversity of the Big Ten’s offenses this year. If only two things happen this year I think we are massively improved as a defense: a pass rusher at OLB emerges and the Daniels bros hold up at NG. That allows the twins to penetrate more, which is where their strength is, and it allows us to play more man coverage which I think can be a strength.

One really interesting psychological effect we've found out from the Trump presidency is a lot of farmers will literally sell the farm before they give up on the GOP.

It’s amazing how out of touch fans get because we win 3 games after losing like 12 of the last 15. Now all of a sudden people think he is going to stay. This season was a disaster and winning a quarter final game in the conference tourney does not make that go away. Make tourney or bust was the narrative before the season started. We are not going to the tourney

I posted a photo here I took ofSasse selling Runzas at a Nebraska game. I regret not buying one then throwing it at his head. (Although I probably would have been heckled relentlessly and possibly arrested so not really).

Hope they can keep the fun going

Man... this freaking team. Just when I was ready to give up all hope, they sucked me back in. Obviously they did this to step on my heart but whatever. What a fun freaking game!

I don't need some convoluted explanation from him about how Democrats are bad and disingenuous and we need more debate and to be serious and yada yada... Actions speak louder than words. Sasse is mostly a fraud, when push comes to shove on his values.

Can only imagine how more wins we would have if miles played out bench a few more mins during the year.

Me too. For years I had no problem with some of these un-repenting monsters getting even semi-humane executions. But you only need to learn about one wrongful murder conviction to get sick to your stomach, and then you learn there have been so many. And then you learn death penalties and executions are more expensive to prosecute than housing a murderer for life. Also, you start to realize it's more ghoulish than badass to stage these executions.

For perspective:

I just wanna thank you two for confirming that yes, this is, in fact, at its core, a board about Nebraska football. Where else are you going to get this type of riveting back and forth on corn?

That’s why I chose #21, to honor the departed OTHusker.

And how they consistently hide behind eye trolling and can't come up with any sort of viable defense for Republican or Trump actions taken. It's pathetic--like they willfully wish to remain ignorant, because admitting their failures as human beings means they have to end the fantasy they've created for themselves.

This play from the Michigan St game is a good example. Last year was supposed to be his breakout year but of course injuries robbed him of much of the season. It’s guys like him to watch this spring because of the development during last season. Put on that Colorado game, he had 10 tackles and he didn’t even know what he was doing. Then put on Iowa, 9 tackles and he’s covering their tight ends in the slot. He’s one of those guys Chins was talking about learning to be a better pass rusher. When he does that better, he can be a real force capable of covering tight ends, being down on the line in the run game and being a disruptor in the backfield. But it’s the mental side, as he said, that is slowing him down. When he can finally play free, as versatile as he is, he’ll be a great player.

I feel like the state of NY AG office is going to be the hero we all need in this.

I thought last year was real fun when we did this so I decided to create a group for us again this year. If you want to join the group, the group name is Huskerboard 1. It should be fun. Let me know if you have any questions.

I can't believe anyone thinks Miles is staying with anything less than winning the B1G tourney and 1 or 2 games in the dance. It ain't gonna happen unless our AD doesn't want anything more than the occasional NIT berth and being in the bottom third of the conference forever.

My son pointed out that the two newest league members have gotten beat by the 3rd-newest member.

Dammit, I don't like having to think of Tim Miles possibly not being the coach.

I didn't see a profile for him so I'll just stick this here. If there is actually one feel free to move this there. I believe he was originally offered last May by Austin. 2020 OL from Honolulu HI.

Lord, it’s hard to be humble, when you’re perfect in every way.

He needs to win tomorrow before we even think about his future.

If we just make it to the championship game i think we're in. Maybe a stretch but even just beating Wisconsin could get us in. That'd put us at 19 wins and several Q1 wins.

I have zero faith in the pathetic servility that is the Congressional GOP (nice to see some of them vote against Trump today - let's see if they do the same after the veto), but I do have faith in our independent institutions. You'd see massive upheaval at the CIA, the FBI, the military, etc. - perhaps not sycophantic leaders like Pompeo but, maybe? There'd be lawsuits out the wazoo. It would effectively cripple our government's legitimacy on the world stage, which is bad for everybody, including business. It would rain sh#t on him from all of us that don't bow down and kiss the ring. For all the protests we've seen for various causes since the start of his presidency, there would be nonstop upheaval in the streets if it went this route.

I am on a different message board, for a pro team I follow, and was looking at a their thread about politics. A person raved about him and posted the Joe Rogan pod, I watched, and started trying to find out more about his policies. The more I've listened, read, the more I can I feel he's the best option out there. The biggest for me was his talk about changing the GDP calculations and how that would help the working class. His views on the UBI and how that can be paid for and all the benefits it can provide to both the community and the family. I think given the chance to be in the debates, his message will resonate with working class, rural americans, urban americans and how these changes (if they can be implemented) would vastly improve the quality of life people have.

I was trying to think of a good gif or meme to post in response to this, but in that twitter conversation, someone posted a fitting image that works (Lucy from Peanuts) (edit: removed the photo for family friendly reasons)

A 59-41 vote isn't veto-proof, but it's better than I thought it'd be.

First off, +1 - great post. If Stoltenberg had been healthy all season, we still lose 8 games. And the 'Gifford as a pass rusher' thing was something I talked about all season long; it didn't work, at all. I also do think we have more options for our down linemen and I think that if buy-in in the weight room occurs this offseason that whole situation gets even better. But this is where I'm at - Chinander has to really use his brain when we play Wisconsin & Iowa. I'm not saying that I predict we'll lose to them both again this year necessarily but I will say that if they chip us for four yards per carry with an overall large rushing total and both beat us I will very much call out all of the excuse-making that will ensue for our 3-4 scheme.

“That blog” is on Scientific American. Like I said, it doesn’t matter if the chart is 100% accurate. Neither cattle feed nor corn ethanol are deserving of any tax money. And bulls#!t that’s my opinion. It’s ludicrous and I never stated it. Please focus on the words I’m saying and not what you’re imagining my opinion is. Corn ethanol is not the only way to avoid wars over oil and it’s silly to think so. (And that’s what we’re talking about; corn. We weren’t talking about all sources of fuel created by farmers). Corn is not a good alternative fuel source. There are a lot of other options than the words you put in my mouth which is to fight wars over oil. Like investing money into alternative energy that is a lot more sustainable and less wasteful than ethanol. We should not be subsidizing ethanol at all. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jamesconca/2014/04/20/its-final-corn-ethanol-is-of-no-use/#4f2d805a67d3 Also, it’s barely a drop in the bucket as far as reducing imports. Increasing it would require a s#!tton of land usage which would increase how much of a waste it is. If it’s good as an alternative fuel to supplement oil, let it stand on its own. (Oil itself should stand on its own, too). Farmers shouldn’t be subsidized just because they’re farmers, especially if the product they’re growing isn’t very good as food or fuel source. If there isn’t some greater good the country is getting out of something, it shouldn’t be subsidized. Let the consumers decide.

This is a positive development.

Well, to be fair, our QB did a great job of making a lot of defenses look formidable that year.

I would prefer to just have both

You should check out the series. It's great television; Sorkin at his finest.

A literal and factually based assessment is not an overreach. If he did what is alleged to have done, then that is truly a felony per the law itself. Then you take into account context, and he will likely plead to probation/diversion/misdemeanor/something minor and not serious. There's no overreach anywhere. Also, what exactly is an incarnation crisis? Too many deities embodying humans in California?
