Omaha-Husker

This is one of the most insane football games I have ever seen, is this the best NFL playoff weekend of all time? Absurd stuff.

Chamath is a Democrat, but closer to a Yang type technocrat than the normal party line.

Got some good looks late that just didn't drop that could have made it interesting. Perfectly happy with the effort and fight, actually liked that it got a little chippy. Shows they give a s#!t still.

Actually like the ball movement tonight.

One of the ladies that came to speak was a badass...it was awesome.  

Some survivors came and spoke to us in high school and it was one of the most important things we did in my schooling. To hear their stories gave so much weight to what you read in your history book, and see the tattoos man the tattoo was so chilling.

Genuinely blessed to be old enough to hear from men and women that lived through WWII, both survivors and soldiers. Stories straight from the source that will be greatly missed by a new generation.

Really hope Athens is going insane. So glad Georgia won. Go dawgs (I have a family connection was all in for them)

I was shocked to see Andrew Luck on ESPN. I genuinely didn't expect to ever see him again.

Maybe Verge did get fouled there and the ref missed it, but he could have easily gotten back to challenge the transition shooter rather than complain and jog back on D.

OT should be 4 mins. 5 mins is already really long (I'd consider 2 mins tbh) and 4 mins fits naturally with the TV timeout schedule the rest of the game.

God I wish that Auburn running back just stayed inbounds.

B1G rolling. Go Michigan tomorrow, please no dual SEC final.

Sparty finishes with a flash. Pretty bad beat for people holding a Pitt card.

Utah's helmets for the Rose Bowl are really great.

Landed at #18 on Baseball America's preseason rankings. High expectations.

Never is a strong word, but I don't see any new airport between Omaha and Lincoln happening in my lifetime. Omaha has already driven about $100 million into the airport and is currently doing a lot more work. Plans to rework the terminal were chugging along, but did hit the breaks during covid. They plan to connect the terminals and have a single centralized security checkpoint. The idea is getting everyone in the same terminal can justify some better amenities beyond security.

Also while it would benefit Lincoln and some suburban users to go out by Gretna or Ashland, Omaha's airport location is really good for their marketing pitch for things like conventions and NCAA events on top of helping attract business in the city's core. Obviously things can change, but I don't see Omaha being terribly interested ditching a really strong amenity for the city anytime soon.

Nevermind.

Looking like KC is about to drop the division for the first time in 5 years.

This is nuts. Starting a game at 10:30 at night. 
 

 

This schedule seems bad. A Friday Sunday structure feels a lot better for fans. I know there is a lot more that goes into a tv schedule, but this feels off.

LeBron is the biggest name and best player of this era, but Curry is the most influential player of this era in terms of how the game is played on the court. Insane that he broke the three point record this quickly. Guys like Ray Allen and Reggie Miller will eventually have stats that make them look like elite QBs from the 90s passing stats compared to even average QB numbers today. Crazy what he did for 3 point shooting in the sport.

Such an impressive performance last night. Great passing and defense and the freshmen were outstanding. Heck of a season already getting to yet another final four. Can't wait for Thursday!

Kept them under 100, progress.

Other bad Husker basketball teams in the past were at least mildly fun to watch. They seemed to try hard and we had some cool players to root for. This team looks miserable out there, gives no defensive effort, and the feels like a team with a bunch of guys would bounce tomorrow if they could.

This is about as bad as defense gets.

Creighton beat Kayla Banwarth's Ole Miss team tonight 3-0. Tough scene seeing Jaela Zimmerman a local talent from just outside of Lincoln and a team captain for Creighton go down with a rough looking knee injury. Hate to see that for anybody.

Sean Callahan figuring out that we got robbed from 14 wins to 13 instead. Important stuff.
