  1. Nice profile pic Macroboy, just like a liberal to make fun of two guys by depicting them as gay lovers and belittling the LGBTQ community

      I fully admit (proudly) to being a bleeding heart liberal (east coast). I have many gay friends, and I do call people out when they direct derogatory statements toward others - I've done it here multiple times. I think we'll all have to agree to disagree on the intent and tone of the photo - but I'm sorry you were offended. I'm grateful you seem to be the only one, but if you felt that it was offensive to homosexuals then we should only try to better understand. Admittedly...

      I'm struggling to understand if you're offended that this show two straight men as gay? That it shows two leaders as gay? That gay men should be offended at being put in Trump/Putin category? I'm going to show it to some of my gay friends and see their thoughts.

      I'm not offended by the photo. I like the Jerry Seinfeld and others like him, Louis C.K., etc., approach to comedy. I can see why the photo is funny based off of the liberal hatred for Trump. What I've witnessed are liberals being offended by people who make jokes at the expense of a gay stereotype or calling someone gay, and having zero tolerance for that humor or crack. To turn around and use a picture like that to ridicule someone is a double standard.

  2. We've done well recruiting OL the last 2-3 classes, we need a big time QB that can run when he needs to and can read defenses and make smart plays

      OL looked like complete garbage, but we have some potential good young guys not playing yet. 2-3 classes translates to at best RS Sophomore because no underclassman has had an opportunity. Even when Tommy did have a chance to complete a pass he overthrew, under threw or was way off target. Half his completions were behind the LOS and even some of those were bad.

  3. Quietest game I’ve ever been to. Sad to see that too many fans are as fickle as the players we complain about not buying in. As a guy behind us said, “I think too many fans show up to keep their streak alive than stand behind the team and make difference.”

      True JJ and I agree. It actually got louder at that point than it was in the first half haha. I know I am venting frustration, but I think it’s fair to say that both the team and fans could give more effort

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      We can agree on that. Hopefully the team will take the lead by eliminating some of the costly mistakes. Doesn't seem like it should be that difficult to stop the head shakers.

      They were louder than I figured they would be.  I thought the team needed to start well and continue to play well to give them something to cheer about otherwise it would be quiet.  Good for the fans.

      Cdog- I'll listen to what you mean, what example(s) do you have that showed that type of taunting - and to that point, it still doesn't make it right if 90s players pulled that then.

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      When this team is 10% as good as any of those 90's teams then we can use that as some kind of equivalency. Right now this team is struggling to get out of their own way with stupid penalties. So, when a guy who was suspended last week and ejected from his two previous games......yeah, it's a problem.

      It was Wyoming's ball. Their QB thru the interception. He was just giving it back to them to take back to the sideline.

  9. Bubba promoted to AAA and hitting .185, haven't followed him this season, but that seems like a, "here's-your-shot," decision before cutting ties

      It's almost like people want Bubba to fail because he didn't choose to play QB for NU. The dude got over $7 million in his signing bonus. I think we all would have made the same decision.

      I think it’s especially sad how the teachers have had so much power stripped away. I’m not asking for the treatment my parents got from nuns or teachers and spanking them or hitting them rulers (true stories) but it’s sad when teachers get put bad in their place when they show more care for a child than a parent does. My HS baseball coach just stepped down because he couldnt handle the parents anymore. He had to have a meeting with the principal who had the audacity to talk to a varsity coach about kids’ playing time...

      Historically I agree with you Nuance, but recent history (15-20 years or so), I think teachers are handcuffed and scapegoated.

      I ask questions because I do not know. I understand that it appears to be strange to some. Asking a question is one of the simplest human functions, yet rarely seen. See, we live in a world now where everybody already knows it all. The man searching for answers to even the simplest questions, is a rare breed.

  18. If Tommy can become more patient in the pocket and step up more often, instead of backing up, he'd find more WRs open through the progressions or tuck and run for 3+ yards. Watched the game again last night and he forced 3-4 passes where if he stepped up he was making positive plays by breaking down the defense.

      How are we gauge what issues are "right on point" at this time? In this case, what if Keels doesn't see increase snaps under Riley?

      True2tRA

      It's not about increased snaps, which by the way wouldn't be hard to surpass considering I don't really remember seeing him at all, but I think the kid just wants to feel like he got a fair shake. If the coaches told him he was doing well enough in practice to see the field on game day, then I don't blame him for being disappointed when it didn't happen.

      A real coach puts in whoever has the ability to perform at a higher level regardless of seniority or any such variables. Simply put, Tommy isn't getting it done and if POB can, he should play.

      Youre guessing savage? Just guessing? Of course there is. Riley told you so yesterday and many times before. This team is a divided headcase. There will be lots of player turnover this offseason.
