  1. I think Tadoka unintentionally catalyzed one of the most absurd dumpster fires on HB in a while. It is like shooting off a firework that happens to go wonky flying into the brush and engulfing a field in flames.

      Oops, my bad! You know me, I look to stir up trouble every chance I get! (>‿♥). I see Thanks_Tom RR changed my name to prevent you guys from rioting and burning me at the stake! Tadoka, I like it.

      I thought one of Trump's campaign promises was he was going to personally pay for all his travel? Did I misunderstand? Not that I expect him to personally pay for official business and security etc. but isn't that what he said?

      No. It's not ATbone. Those were not business related trips. And the Obamas were not billionaire.

      Agree with Decked - sushi is one of my absolute favorite foods, but I've also grown to love Thai recently. Salween Thai in Omaha is intensely good.

  6. For those who saw the recent status update from MC (which I deleted), its contents was inappropriate. Religious intolerance and threats violate board rules.

      @RedDenverThey can't, the transfer portal, if I recall has personal information as in address, DOB transcript info as well.  It's not just a simple sign your name here kind of thing.

    3. Thanks_Tom RR

      Thanks_Tom RR

      It would be possible to have a redacted public (or non-member) version with player name, position, and school.

       

      There is a fansite that already does this for grad transfers.

    4. RedDenver

      RedDenver

      Yes, I meant that the public information like the names of the players would be visible, not all of their personal information.

      Tennessee, yes. Florida State? Nah. That would be a disservice to how good Louisville is.

  11. Nebraska in the Top 10 this week. Well earned. Lot of bad football being played. Nebraska controls the ball, forces positive turnover margins, and closes out teams convincingly.

  12. I got rain water pooling in a 3-inch gap between my shed and a garden plot. Any thoughts how to prevent this?

      Thanks_Tom RR

      Lot of great ideas. Thanks.

       

      @JJ Husker think I will try the perforated pipe with pea gravel. Not sure if the water is draining from the garden or accumulating from direct rain fall, but this idea has potential to resolve both issues.

       

      @huKSer no slope in real life just looks that way in the picture. Everything is even and on flat ground.

       

      @teachercd kids are too old for GI Joe. Otherwise, this could be the site of a great battle. :thumbs

    3. huKSer

      Use some fill dirt and make a mound 3" tall in the middle sloping down to ground level at both ends

    4. RedDenver

      RedDenver

      Fill with gravel. If it's overflowing, then put in a French drain first.

      It was nice to see him get beat by Matt Brown. Evans was on his heels the whole match I felt. Wish Kokesh would have gotten a shot at Brown, Storley, or Evans before the Big10's

      No kidding Coach Power'T. This is another example of why we lose from the decision to bring Maryland and Rutgers into the B1G (not that it is all bad as Maryland helps with basketball and baseball). Instead of seeing DONU vs Iowa, Minney, or Penn St, we have to see they vs Maryland and Rutgers to valid that decision. Whatever.

      I dropped my driver's license while traveling in the the Houston area. I'm not exactly sure where but when I got home it was in the mail. No note or anything. Actually I have always had everything I've lost, returned. And i've lost a lot because I have half a brain.

      IMO, Twitter and social media are nothing more than a huge problem as it relates to players, team chemistry and trying to keep players from transmitting the wrong message. Maybe the general public not seeing these things wouldn't matter or change anything but I'd be real tempted to out and out ban it's use for my players if I was a coach. What good ever comes from it?

    4. 4skers89

      4skers89

      Even if you ban the players, their families can still tweet stupid stuff. It sounds like Noah Fant’s brother was criticizing IA coaching staff recently.

      Cornwell born and lived in Omaha. Went to Millard South his freshman and sophomore yr but only played extremely limited minutes. Moved to Florida and home schooled without playing football (due to mom getting sick). Moved again to Oklahoma and played his senior year.

      If Riley was in place a few years earlier, he might be getting ready to start for Nebraska. Didn't fit Beck's scheme.
