  1. We'll see how much clamoring for Carnes there is this year. He was supposed to be our "savior" last year (according to some) and now he's #4. Hmmmmmm.......
  2. You mean when he was in another first year of an offense when he didn't have any spring ball to get up to speed, throwing to mostly freshmen, sophomores and somewhat injured receivers - some of whom may or may not have been giving their best effort all the time. Yeah, I think the timing could have been better. I think it will be.
  3. His Freshman year he was two completions from being over 60% for the year. IIRC, Beck's offense at Kansas relied on short passes (that is, the type that are easy to complete). I wouldn't be surprised if he's 65%.
  4. Who said that? Plenty of talk about bias from Fox . . . which is accurate. Did someone actually say to not believe a single word? Well, actually, yes.
  5. And the Seahawks apparently trade Tarvaris Jackson to clear up space. Not a surprise - only that they thought he could be the answer in the first place.
  6. Huskers up 2-0. Hopefully the third set win come quicker than last night.
  7. Understatement of the Day: This Haggerty girl could be really good. Huskers looking good in the first set.
  8. <snip> Obama urges Congress to boost public sector jobs <snip> So where's the bemoaning? Do you actually read the articles?
  9. No. 1. Your "agreed upon" hedge is particularly interesting since no agreement was reached. Obama's administration said that they were aiming for $4 trillion in deficit reduction. "Somewhat agreed upon." Heh. 2. "The deal fell apart." Like I was saying . . . the GOP refused to agree to tax increases. What do you think killed the deal? Obama wanting to cut more spending than the GOP would agree to cut? Still accurate. We're talking about two different agreements. Obviously the entire package was not agreed upon (your point). That doesn't mean that some of the issues were not (my point): Maybe the GOP backed out. Or maybe Obama made changes to a figure that, at least to Boehner, seemed to be agreed upon:
  10. Looking at the title I was sure the thread had to be started by Bucky. Really, he hasn't surprised me anywhere along the way. He was successful in the same NC St. program that produced Phillip Rivers - another QB who was supposed to struggle in the NFL. Had a great year at Wisky. Didn't necessarily think he'd start right away but his competition isn't exactly stellar - a QB who's been below average despite being given several chances and another who was supposed to be a golden boy based on one good day subbing on the best offense in the league? Not surprising that the other two aren't that great. However, still props to Wilson for playing well.
  11. I think that was Doris Burke It was Beth Mowins. Not sure If I've ever seen her before.
  12. Is the league still open? I think I'll play if I'm around for the draft but I can't seem to get it to come up when I search for it.
  13. Not the greatest game ever but it was great to get to watch Johnny play. Hats off to Brophy - crazy to have to play one of the best teams in the nation on two days rest.
  14. Can't say that I'm overly impressed with the play-calling by Santa Margarita. I guess they have a championship under their belt so maybe I shouldn't judge but I think with three D-1 OLineman, a D-1 QB that can run and a RB that runs hard, I might go a little more North-South.
  15. Apparently the #4 is fairly important to Johnny (his grandfather flew an F-4) but Armstrong already has that number.
  16. Yeah, really hope he goes somewhere other than Ohio St. AZ state record holder in both 110 and 300 hurdles and a 10.4 100M guy on the track. That's pretty salty.
  17. Apparently is was NOW! GREAT game for the Huskers!
