  1. Out here in the boonies, our doctor's office had signs that stated if you were coughing, had fever, or suspected you may have influenza you had to wear a mask in order to be seen, as far back as I can remember.
  2. I'd go so far as to say that with Washington here, Wandale is still a Husker. We wouldn't have needed to run him between the tackles.
  3. Talentwise even in his short time playing he is probably the best back we have had since Ameer.
  4. This is like recognizing I don't want to live in a world where Iowa State and Iowa are Top-10, Top-15 teams and Nebraska is unrated. Its so painful when visiting with relatives and friends who live in that state.
  5. Perfect solution. Election Day is made a federally paid holiday. That way no one loses income from waiting in lines for hours and has to decide on voting or feeding their family.
  6. Hey at least he's willing to admit there are things he doesn't know or fully understand; and then takes the time to research and learn. That is that self awareness thing I was talking about. Some right leaning folks will just ignore what they don't know/ understand and repeat the same false claim over and over again.
  7. They CAN work. But do they work in this instance. It takes a certain level of self awareness for an entity be it person, business, or state to be the subject of a boycott and recognize it is the issue and needs to make a change. When it comes to the far right, and by extension entities ran by the far right, that self-awareness doesn't seem to exist. In this instance I believe it is far more likely the right leaning voters of Georgia will see this as an attack and will see this as validation and vindication pushing them even farther right.
  8. Actions have consequences. Voting has consequences. Do you really think that a baseball game will provide such a huge boon to Atlanta that it will lift the inner city out of poverty? The only people in Atlanta it will hurt are the corporations that stood to make huge money, people who are already rich. That money would have been stashed away for their next yacht, shipped out of Atlanta to their shareholders, or been given out in corporate kickbacks. Not given to their employees and has very little affect on inner city Atlantan's. This move will impact the folks its supposed to impact.
  9. The difference would have been minimal. Was Martinez perfect? Nope, but the lack of a run game, lack of a line, and lack of quality dependable receivers would have left Burrows with an ok season that probably leaves him an undrafted and unheralded free agent, not the Number 1 draft pick. The quarterback on a good team is the most important piece. A quarterback on a bad team is just another cog in the wheel who gets to take the most beating. A great team around a mediocre qb will make that qb a Heisman candidate. A terrible team around an above average qb will make that qb look like they'd be second string at any other school at best.
  10. It's not just that. I write for a profession. When I started, not too long ago, it was recommended that the material I created, for adults, be written at a 4th grade reading level. That recommendation has now fallen to 1st or 2nd grade. Attention spans are shorter, reading comprehension is falling, and language is getting further dumbed down to appeal to the masses, and not just young people. My target audience is boomers.
  11. Alvarez is still so in tune with the football team that as recently as 7 and 9 years ago he named himself interim coach for bowl games during vacancies. I don't know of any other A.D.'s that have/ would do that. I would hate to work under a boss that routinely thought they could do my job better than I did. What a micromanaging nightmare. 1971–1973 Lincoln NE HS (NE) (assistant) 1974–1975 Lexington HS (NE) 1976–1978 Mason City HS (IA) 1979–1986 Iowa (LB) 1987 Notre Dame (LB) 1988–1989 Notre Dame (DC) 1990–2005 Wisconsin 2012 Wisconsin (interim HC) 2014 Wisconsin (interim HC)
  12. This is false. The play of the online is more important than the QB.
  13. Steve Pederson disagrees. They definitely need to modernize. Can't slip into mediocrity.
  14. Any chance we go grab this kid? Would definitely make up for Wandale's departure. https://247sports.com/college/michigan/Article/Michigan-Wolverines-Giles-Jackson-enters-NCAA-transfer-portal-163285502/
  15. If only the right wing would defend the right to vote as fiercely and ferociously as they defend the 2nd amendment. Any obstacle in obtaining guns is bad, any obstacle in voting is good and should be accepted. Of course, that's the nature of the right wing. The only good policy is the policy that directly benefits "me."
  16. Haha. Sorry, but I found the bolded funny. As someone who has had to read more than my fair share of scholarly reports, I feel I can safely saw, nearly every single study report ever done ends with all authors in agreement that "more study is needed." This is how they can continue to get new monies to research the same things over and over again.
  17. You realize don't you that due to offenses today top 10 teams are regularly losing games by 21 points or more?
  18. Depending on how old BigRedN is, his kid, may not be a child.
  19. Yes, because republocan governors are fully cooperating with the goals of this administration. There is a difference between getting kids in school safely and just saying the heck with it and tossing them in, with a "good luck kid." Keep trolling, your salient points continue to resonate throughout the land.
  20. Are you so daft as to believe that no one that has ever been found not guilty of a crime, in reality actually committed the exact time they were accused of but managed to get away with it through some technicality or lack of evidence? Of course not. You are just not conversing in good faith... yet again!!! If you do believe that, please go back and research your posting history for all the times you said the Clinton's were innocent and all the congressional hearings were a waste of time and resources. You won't, because you can't. You're just trolling and everyone knows it. Hope you got a rise out of getting to respond to your nonsense, bad faith arguements and whatnot once again.
