  1. I just talked to my daughter who lives across the street from Union Station in Kansas City. She said they closed the road in front of their building at 5 this morning so she and her husband couldn’t

    get out to go to work!

     

  2. Anyone got experience buying 3rd party extended warranty from dealer on a used car? Good/bad?

      See if they require photos of broken or worn out parts.  Happened to a coworker on some leaking AC hoses.  Just because they say they cover a part doesn't mean they'll make it straight forward to get any money out of them.  They've always given off a scammy feel to me.  I go the self insured route.

  3. Philly Cheesesteak or Chicago Italian Beef Sandwich?  What say you?

      The dripping Italian beef makes for messy eating.  The philly is more tidy and tastes good too!

      Combo Italian beef and sausage. If I had to choose I’d go with Philly

  5. The Huskers beat Hawaii to go to the Elite Eight.

     

    Louisville beats Texas and bounces them from the tournament. 

     

    I'd have to say it was a good day.

  6. Darrion Daniels - Piesman finalist, baby!

     

     

  7. Look at Oregon running all those trick plays.

      IDK, the Utes were flying around on defense.  They are kind of getting embarrassed though.

      LOL.  Herbert has a better mastery of trick plays than McCaffrey, IMO.  But seriously, watching the speed the players from both teams play makes me think our players are going at about 80%.  I don't know if it's a lack of depth or something else but it seems like we play at a 800m pace instead of a sprint.

      Walkons probably see a lot of opportunities for playing time.  I would if I was a motivated PWO.

      I recycled my smiling moose from last year.  Time to forget about the dismal season and get into the Christmas spirit!  Thanks again, Ho Ho Ho

  11. Whenever I watch these top 10 teams play I feel like my Huskers go into a gun fight with water pistols. The speed of the running backs and wide receivers, the size and quickness of the D lineman is nearly depressing.

      I was watching an Oregon game and saw a play we run.  I was thinking wow, that's how it's supposed to look.  The biggest difference was the speed it was executed at.  Our players looks like they are playing in mud.

       

      Wisconsin does a very good job developing players but they also get them to play hard.  They had to play a freshman DB against Minnesota and held his own against Minny's WRs.  He wasn't big and didn't appear to be overly fast.  He just played with a want to attitude.  Sometimes I get the impression that our players aren't willing to make a play out of concern for injury.  That wasn't even on the Wisconsin freshman's mind.

  13. That may be my favorite way Alabama has lost a game ever!  Freaking hilarious.

    1. 4skers89

      I like seeing teams be more clever and pull off a win.  The way the Auburn QB was counting players it was obviously a ploy to get Alabama to have 12 men on the field.  Well done.

      I'm watching to find out.  You never know what will happen when UM and MSU play!

  16. Made $800 on LNK bump this morning.  Thanks Wisky fans!

      $800 cash or 8 travel vouchers each worth $100?

  17. God Cleveland is trash...

  18. In Vegas for a conference. Haven’t seen a number posted yet for Saturday (I saw the +13 tweets) . But I’m pretty sure I’ll be on Wisky and the points...

  19. UCF....LOL

      I would somewhat prefer they win but after they slow played Vedral's eligibility I'm more pleased when they lose.

  20. 13 commits, with signing day a month out? This program is as bad as it ever was under Riley, or Bill.

      I thought we usually heard about coaches jetting to a bunch of different places during the bye weeks.  Haven't seen much info this year.  Maybe it just wasn't posted.

  21. Lots of tickets listed for $40 on Stubhub for the Wisconsin game. Apathy has shown its ugly face once again

      Deer hunting is a nice distraction.  I remember processing deer while listening to a loss on the radio.  Conversation eventually drowned out the game.

  22. Oh, hi. Funny story. Nebraska Volleyball just beat our arch-nemesis in a gritty tough match after a pretty damned difficult week because those players are mentally strong as hell.

    1. 4skers89

      4skers89

      They looked the best I've seen them play.  They are mentally tough and as testing showed are some of the most physically developed athletes at UNL.  You don't get that way without making sacrifices.

  23. You could take the entire premise of fever pitch and attach it to nebraska football.  Thats how bleek this is starting to look.  We lose today and weve lost the team the rest of the season.

    1. 4skers89

      4skers89

      If we lose today I would be OK if the team gets lost somewhere between Lafayette and Lincoln and they aren't found until the season is over.

  24. Omaha World Herald (AP) - A 15 year old boy was at the center of a Douglas County courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him. 

    The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulation requiring that family unity be maintained to the highest degree possible. 

    The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried and said that they also beat him. 

    After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him. 

    After two recesses to check legal references and confer with the child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the Nebraska Cornhuskers, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone.

  25. Congratulations to these guys who are getting close to a viable ocean plastic cleanup system and already deployed a few systems to capture plastics at river source.  

    https://theoceancleanup.com/

    1. 4skers89

      4skers89

      Maybe they thought the plastic was washing out to sea.  What the OceanCleanup guys found was the mass of the plastic accumulated in the gyre didn't have near the amount of plastic known to be discharged into the ocean.  Based on the dates of some plastics found in the gyre they didn't think the plastics were being broken down into microplastics and forming a smog that was theorized.  They believe that after a few years it washes ashore and a small fraction escapes into the ocean currents and into the gyre.  They may not be s#itting where they sleep but where their neighbor sleeps.  I know in the PI people are getting a lot more conscious of plastic pollution.  My wife and I sponsored a local beach cleanup which they had been conducting for a few years and they are making a huge effort to clean up Manila Bay.
