      That was a POTUS joke, El D. Good lord no I'd never eat a steak like that.

       

      Medium rare is the correct answer. With or without sauce.

      I forgot to add that I coat both sides of my steak or any red meat with seasoned salt and fresh ground pepper.

      New York Strip, pink all the way through. Sometimes as is, sometimes I like it marinated in a mix of red wine vinegar, Italian dressing, and teriyaki. Maybe a little bit of A1 but I never put it directly on the meat.

  2. Argument with my son tonight. The discussion was if Westy had caught the ball before it crossed the endzone but his feet had stayed in the endzone when he came down would it still be a TD? I know Westy did reach back with the ball to make sure but if he had been tackled with his feet in the endzone but the ball out of the endzone would it still be 6? I say no, son says yes.Discuss.

      What shyndy is saying is if you catch a ball on the sidelines, the ball can be two yards out of bounds (in the air) and as long as you can snag it while keeping your feet in bounds it's a catch. Not sure why the same wouldn't be said for TD's. It's the same for the back of the end zone- if the balls out the back, the receiver jumps and grabs it, as long as he comes down with two feet in it's a TD?

      That is the explicit rule, yes. You're not sure why the goal line is different? Because the rules explicitly say it is different. I don't see why this is even a discussion, go look at the rules and interpretations.

    4. husker ponsler

      husker ponsler

      The ball has to cross the goal line to be a TD if he would have only had feet in he endzone it would not have counted unless the ball broke the plain.

      I'm glad that these players found success at other programs.  Had they become Huskers, they probably wouldn't have had the same success, for various reasons.  I don't think that will be the case while Frost is around.

      @BoSolich Phillips was on Bo, Stick was on Bo, Fant was a mixture, Bazata was on Bo  Did Riley miss on in state guys, sure and I'm fearful of what Williams will do to us in the future, but it's been 3 straight coaches that have had issues with identifying Nebraska talent.

  8. Two summers ago I started a new hobby (sport) you may or may not find interesting. I wanted to compete in a track event at the Cornhusker State Games and decided to easiest event might be the 50 Meter sprint. I didn't place in the top three so I decided to work my butt off the next winter and was in much better shape going into spring. I had run distance in high school and college so sprinting was completely new. Last summer I was 3rd in the 50 M at the Cornhusker Games which was a nati...

      huKSer....I know what you mean. I'm sure someone college age would look at these seniors meets and laugh. Last year at the National Meet in Minneapolis the mens age 60-64 (my age group) had a winning time of 6.68 in the 50 M and 8th place was 7.22. The 100 M final was won in 11.91. These are guys nearing retirement age.

  9. Has anyone on the board ever dealt with the Quadratus Lumborum muscle in the low back? I first went to the chiropractor thinking it was in the spine. 8 trips and very little relief. Next was a trip to the PT and they needled it which seemed to make a difference but only for a few days.  I've found one stretch that helps.  Also laying on a tennis ball on the hot spot helps but the best I've found is an inversion table. Any suggestions?

      I love this guy's videos, and actually saw one about that quadratus not too long ago. I've been having different kinds of back pain as well, but none of it is actually related to the back muscles, moreso the internal connections and hips instead:

      Ulty

      Also another one, not necessarily the quadratus, but if you guys are like me with similar back pain, I highly recommend giving this a look. It turned out I was having problems with the gluteus mideus. This video actually changed my life:

  11. On a recent trip I drove from Wash DC back to central Nebr. Two states vie for the title of worst interstate road conditions. Indiana noses out Illinois. Both states were pathetic. Spent the night in Columbus OH and drove to see the stadium before leaving.

      The interstate between Omaha and home were easily the best hiways I drove on. The worst stretches are better than most states best. I agree with you hammerhead. States can't be spending their gas tax revenue on road repair.

  12. About 20 years ago there was a little seen movie where an alien came to earth as a human to observe our species.

I didn't see "John Wick 1" but went to 2 last night. Can we say OVERKILL?

  13. I dreamed a song last night that I can't find on google or You Tube. The impression I remember from the style of the song is it sounded like the Allman Bros.  The singer was shocked that his girl friend had ended their relationship and he was trying to tell her they had something good.  Finally he realizes she won't be convinced and starts the chorus of the song with the line "It's all good, there's no bad."  Does this ring a bell with anyone?

      I guess when I watch a game between two good teams I want more than the same not funny lines he's been using for 30 years.  No one would watch a comedian who used the exact same jokes in every show.  Raffs has been using the lines about "a little kiss off the glass" and "call the janitor to pick up the lingerie on the court" for so long I know when it's coming.

  17. We have an ant invasion this year.  Tiny black ones and also dark red large ones. I have used many of the "ant traps" that they are supposed to carry back to the nest.  They just laugh at it.  Even had the big ones start a nest inside the freezer door of the fridge and start removing the white foam insulation one tiny piece at a time. I would rather not spray every square inch of the property because of grandkids. Any solutions?

      Terro also makes a shaker bag of granules--walk around the perimeter of the house, shake the bag, and it's an effective ant barrier. Do this on top of whatever spray/concoction you use, and you should be golden.

  19. One thing about college and pro basketball I'd like to change. I see a lot of guards dribbling with a defender along side. The defender is making minimal contact but as they get close to the rim the dribbler suddenly collides with the defender....sing him as a brake then shoots a short jumper. The foul is called 99% of the time against the defender when he didn't initiate the contact. Even though he is still moving that space he occupies should be his and not the dribbler.
