  2. So, now when someone +1s a post, you get a message that says..."someone reacted to a post...."  So, are there more ways to "react" to a post than to +1?

  3. So Colorado really plays this up as a rivalry huh? Just read an article about their "hatred" for Nebraska.  

  4. Ummm.... no:

      when you take parity into account, I think the NFL is very entertaining because all teams have to abide by the same rules and salary, etc.

       

      With college every team and conference is run differently so you don't always get even matchups.  Which takes away, for me, entertainment value.

       

      College is the best entertainment.  NFL is best strategy.

  7. Running is not going well. Mostly because I'm not a runner, and because running is the devil. But I've got a 5K route planned for this evening, and while I'll probably die doing it, I'm going to do it.

      Invest in shoes if this is going to be something you plan to do often.  You can get away with cheaper shoes for a while but it will catch up quick.  I used to get shin splints as well.  Then I started buying shoes strictly for running and paying attention to the fit and cushion.  It made all the difference.

      I usually research Runners World when buying shoes.  They normally have a list of the best shoes.  I try to stick to something in the top 10 and haven't been disappointed yet.  I go about 500 miles in them.  Last year I had Asics Gel Nimbus 17's and they were hands down amazing for running.  But they made some changes in the 18 and I didn't like the fit.  Went with Nike Air Pegasus 34's.  Really solid shoe.

       

      Minnesota (and maybe other states) has a place called The Running Room.  They will give you a free basic test of your feet and direct you to the type of shoe that would fit you best.

      It wasn't neat when he was a commit and it was worse when he de-committed and they continued to let him have his platform.  It was a bad decision on so many angles.

      They gave a platform to a HS kid that wasn't going to play for Nebraska.  Not to mention that awful "Top 25 Huskers of All Time" countdown last year.  

      Probably best that they cease writing

      If true that would be something considering the QB that just signed in December didn't even play his senior year of football due to injury.  Would imagine it would have to be serious.

      Pop Tarts are a pastry.  Ravioli is a pasta.

  19. Riley's annual salary at Oregon State is $50,000 as a P5 Assistant Coach. Good god.

      StPaulHusker

      I didn't write that clearly.  Obviously you can't force a specific salary.  But the contract states comparable salary.  Which is not the case here

      You can "force" someone to take a certain salary if they signed a contract stating if they became employed somewhere else, the salary had to be comparable to other salaries of the same position.  That is what Riley agreed to.

      Riley and Oregon St are trying to game the system.  Wouldn't be surprised if something happens.  His contract states:


      "secure substantially comparable employment including the customary and reasonable terms and conditions of compensation at the new employment, without structuring or timing compensation to avoid mitigation."

       

      Bo taking an FCS job at $165K was comparable.  This is not

  22. Walmart is raising their base wage to $11/hour and offering paid parental leave. Almost zero large American employers offer this kind of leave. Hopefully other employers follow suit and this becomes the norm in America - we're the only major industrialized nation that doesn't offer this. American employers seem to punish families for having children. I always thought it was super weird.

      People need to realize that large corporations do not give a rats ass about their employees and anything they do positive isn't for their employees benefit and there is a negative side to appease shareholders.

      Correction.  63 stores for now.  Still thousands to be laid off.  Also, 20+ years of employment gets you a ONE TIME BONUS of $1000

      Before everyone starts lauding this monumental feat of WalMart, they are closing 260 SAM's Clubs and likely laying off thousands of workers.  So did AT&T, Comcast, etc after announcing these great benefits due to the new tax laws.
