  1. In Mississippi? That has to be a record for the most people that ever passed a test in that state. Ba-zing

  3. Touching someone’s neck and raping them are entirely different. Ones a behavior that needs correction, ones a behavior that needs prison time. You’re problem is you assume everyone thinks this is a R vs D thing. You’ve expressed that over and over. Look man, all I’ve said is I want the truth, I don’t care what party Biden represents. If he raped her then f#&% him, he should be out of the race ASAP. If he touched her neck 27 years ago and it made her uncomfortable, I’m sorry but that’s not even in the same discussion as rape.

  5. Trim the expendable staff who don't make a lot of money because the $50+ million a year in TV revenue isn't enough to go around, and we can't be reducing the pay of the millionaire 1% staff. Obviously neither is a real option. Note: I'm only responding to language of the bullet point haven't read through the article. We've basically been printing money the last few years, and we might need to lay people off?

  6. In case no one else looked, CDC says there are 12,000-61,000 flu deaths per year in the U.S. since 2010. 61,000/365 = 167 per day. So our deaths per day right now, when we obviously aren’t at the peak of this thing, is 3X that of the flu.

  7. So that's why it ended up at 6 feet. Some moron couldn't convert it to 3.28 feet and thought if he about doubled it that would be good enough.

  8. But...but...but.....our recruiting ranking......we are better than____________(fill in the blank with MN, IA, NW, WI)........we have AM 3.5.....all we continue to do is hope and dream and maybe, just maybe, the pieces fall into place. In all reality, we are no different than any other NE team in the past X number of years until we prove it on the field. It used to mean something when you said NE/Lincoln/Memorial Stadium.....now, not so much, just chasing phantoms from the past as college football left us in the dust

  9. I get it but if they look over the people that work in the offices and find that there are some that really are not needed, well, what is wrong with eliminating positions that are not needed? Say you ran a business and you started off with two receptionists but after a year you realized that you didn't need two of them, that one was plenty. What would you do? Not everything is evil, not everything is a boss sitting in his ivory tower stroking his moustache as he thinks about who to fire for no reason.

  10. This board once again proves to be, for the most part, utterly reasonable with difficult topics. Reflecting on this and the allegations against Kavanaugh, the system is horribly ill-equipped to do anything about these decades-old accusations. For the sake of everyone involved you hope this one isn't credible. There's certainly a lot of reason to remain skeptical for now.

  11. I think people don't want to take a look at this. And I think you need to examine whether you're interested in the truth or ignoring what's inconvenient for beating Trump.

  13. Hell, I am nervous about SDSU. It took AA to beat McNeese St........ As to the back 5 being brutal, IIRC they all finished top 15 last year....That's pretty rough. Even without the rankings, I haven't seen NU do anything yet to make me think we can beat those teams yet.

  14. Despite only playing part time in one year (2018), he has 2 picks, 2 forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery. Not sure how you want to count the fumble recovery, so that's either 4 or 5 turnovers in minimal time. The only players we have with more career turnovers forced are Domann (5 FF, 1 FR over 3 years) and Taylor-Britt (3 INTs, 4 FF, 2 FR over 2 years, but almost all were last year). I don't know of a good way to get the number of snaps played, but it wasn't a lot in 2018 and he got 5 turnovers. You can debate the proven part based on noot playing full time I guys, but you don't just stumble into that number of plays without being a playmaker.

  16. The WHO website says it is not airborne. So that raises two questions. Why would the CDC supposedly be going to recommend everyone wear masks and why are healthcare workers so concerned about not having enough masks? Seems people who should be, aren't on the same page. If it's in fact not airborne, wouldn't the sole purpose of wearing a mask be to keep an infected person from coughing/spraying onto other people and surfaces? Doesn't seem it would help a non-infected person prevent becoming infected

  20. A winning season, bowling and a signature win (as you mentioned) would be HUGE. I think it would prove to the kids that the "system", "methodology" etc is working....It'd show the fans as well... .If we could find a way to win those close games (even splitting last years 2-4 record) we would've gone bowling....Eventually we will figure it out right?????????

  23. For a team to change outsiders perceptions a marquee win is necessary in consecutive years and at higher rankings with each marquee win. 2020 that could start by winning 7 with the marquee win being Wisky or Iowa. In 2021 an 8 win season with the win being Michigan (at home btw) and then 2022, making the B1G championship by getting that marquee win against OU at home or Wisky (on the road)... The important thing is, consecutive "marquee" wins to silence the doubters and build confidence. As it is now, our beloved husker program doesn't have a win to hang our hats on. Let's start filling up the hat rack this year and then consecutive years!

  24. Thought about creating a thread, instead if a Mod determines the topic discussion worthy they can start it. My comment regarding coming sporting events at dear O' NU is... who here thinks now would be a great time to address the sardine packaging of fans in Memorial Stadium. Might be time to well... add actual seats?

  25. Wait...no one actually believed anything coming out of China, did they? People think our government lies? Our government looks like an open book compared to China. North Korea thinks China lies a lot. And why is the Netherlands having such issues and dying at such a massive rate per infection?

  26. The US has been a mixture of privately owned capitalism and socialism since it’s inception. That’s what Republicans refuse to acknowledge. So, ridding the US of socialism isn’t the correct conversation. The conversation needs to be about what parts should be socialized and how to make them as efficient as possible. At the same time, how do we create the best business environment for capitalism to thrive so the most people possible have good jobs. Another part that Republicans don’t get us that takes a certain amount of regulation.

Just some kind of "leadership" we have here.... https://www.cnn.com/videos/health/2020/03/13/coronavirus-questions-answered-town-hall-mh-orig.cnn/video/playlists/coronavirus/ ..."the governor of Washington", "the woman in Michigan"... How any self-respecting woman could, in their right mind, vote for this man just blows my mind. I can honestly say I am embarrassed to be a citizen of the country that elected this piece of garbage as POTUS.

  34. Nobody before Trump ever thought we needed 100,000 ventilators in the US stockpile either. Factories are being ramped up to build them. My biggest question is, if we have factories ramping up fast to build them, what difference would it make if the DPA was used? Trump's words and actions at the beginning of this crisis are inexcusable. His words and actions acting like it's all coming to an end and we can open up the country are inexcusable. His act of playing doctor on TV against the experts is inexcusable. BUT...we have lots fo companies ramping up to make equipment. Not sure the DPA would make a difference. I just received a link that was created by the government for me to go on and list things I could make for the effort. None of them match any type of equipment I have now. It would take me a year to get ramped up to make a lot of this stuff. Would the DPA being forced on me make that any faster? I don't think so.

  36. No the problem is we are on the cusp of a pandemic DURING an election year. The media and Trump are playing verbal catfish like normal, the Dems and the Repubs are leveraging and we all suffer because of it. People aren't dying from Trump tweeting and it's getting absolutely stupid to continue pointing to that. People are dying because this administration drug it's feet. Because the last administration supposedly didn't restock properly. Because foreign countries mismanaged a pandemic tht could've been controlled. But yeah let's focus on Trump tweets and open ended optimism during a crisis. I don't like him baiting reporters right noe, I think it's irresponsible even for him. But my god, this is next level. People suggesting Trump is at fault for people drinking FISH TANK CLEANER! He should have said HEY DON'T DRINK THE s#!t! Because a lot of people aren't coherent enough to realize coffee is hot. But holy hell. Rant over. Just, man alive, there are more important things at hand than pushing narrative blame at the politicians you didn't like before this all started. This is a group effort of a disaster.

  39. Okay, so Chauncey's tape is very intriguing. His 3 strengths are his route running, footwork, and ball skills. He is very polished for a WR with this rating. He has good enough speed to be lethal with those strengths. Those little things tell me a lot. He is well coached and takes well to it. I really like him.
