  1. He sounds excited. He must be getting free basketball tickets
  2. I think this is a big part of the reason for Husker fans disdain for Herbstreit
  3. The season will ultimately dictate if he'll be in contention for the Heisman but if he wants a shot at it, he's definitely going to need more than 15 carries/game.
  4. I agree that the military spending may be somewhat out of control but like sd'sker said, It's more about jobs than anything. Also as part of the new "budget", military spending has been greatly reduced (I'm too lazy to look up exact figures). The real spending problem lies with the entitlement programs. I'm not saying that all these programs need to be eliminated, but there needs to be some drastic changes if the U.S hopes to ever get out of debt. There are a lot of people struggling to make ends meet in this country and I have no problem helping those people out. However, there are far too many people not paying taxes and receiving handouts for having 100 kids and being too lazy to go get a job like the rest of us. The argument that "I wasn't given the same opportunities" or whatever's the excuse along those lines is BS. You live in the land of opportunity but it is not something that is just going to be handed to you (in most cases). The most successful people in life are not the one's who just waltz through expecting everything handed to them. They are the ones who work their asses off to get to where they are or want to be. To quote the great Vince Lombardi "The dictionary is the only place that success comes before work. Work is the key to success and hard work can help you accomplish anything." (Sorry, stepping down from soapbox now)
  5. Most likely. He got significant playing time last year when Gardner was hurt.
  6. Yeah but that's before Dillman committed. It's a whole new ball game now. Just curious, what's the tie to Dillman? Or why do you think that will make a difference, other than they're both in Texas? I was just being stupid. Haha, gotcha. I probably shoulda picked up on that just thought maybe there was some tie in between the 2 that I had missed.

  8. I'm not sure there are any areas of his game I would give an A+ but if there were one, I'd probably say taking to the hoop. IMO, his biggest problems are trying to do too much (forcing shots) and just his overall inconsistency, both on offense and defense. This is where another year or even 2 would do him wonders.
  9. Because that's what this show does. When a somewhat minor character suddenly starts getting more lines, it usually means they're about to be a goner. Although, to our knowledge she hasn't been killed yet, so she might get some more screen time. One of my roommates theories is that Beth is the meat they were cooking at Terminus
  10. After watching him this past season, he is not NBA ready, IMO. To me, he is kinda like the Randy Gregory of the basketball team. The talent is very much there, he just needs more time at this level to get it more refined.
  11. Agreed. That woman was not right. Yea she's creepy and it's definitely sketchy that she was the only one there. My guess is they turned to cannibalism and that's what was on the grill.
  12. I really don't think its his fault.. He's just not big enough for this level. I like his attitude and all but we will be fine at the CB spot when he graduates. Yeah, iirc, he didn't so much get beat as he just didn't make plays. Seemed to be in position to make plays, but didn't. Maybe he got out physicalled, so to speak? Exactly what I was thinking. Yea he's just not a very big guy, which is his biggest downfall. He's listed on the roster as 5'11" and 160lbs. That's pretty small for a CB.
  13. @BoPelini: Can I get fined if I comment about basketball officiating?

  14. It all depends on you. I hit around the same handicap as you and I play the cleveland CG16 Tour black pearls. I can tell right away when I miss hit them because I can feel it in the club. I would personally suggest them to anyone because I really like them but they might not be for everyone. The CG16 set I have are all irons but they might have hybrids for them. Have these same clubs. Really like them a lot as well.
  15. Anybody watch the finale last night? I thought they did an excellent job capping off what was a great season
  16. Hoping to purchase some tix off craigslist for the game Sunday. Anybody know if there's a way to tell if they're legit in advance?

      Just ask them.

      Good point. I mean, why wouldn't they tell me if they were fake?

  17. Haven't bought either yet but I've always been a xbox guy and the controller is the biggest reason for me hesitating to make the switch to PS. Simple answer is to get a 3rd party controller that is in the xbox layout. Having used both the PS3 pad, and the 360 pad with my PC, I like the layout of the PS pad better, but the size of the xbox is more comfortable as I have fairly large hands. Haven't bought a third party controller in a long time but in my experience in the past you generally give up quality by doing so. Is that still the case or not so much anymore? I also find the xbox controller to be much more comfortable and just generally like the layout better.

  19. Oh god, please no. I don't mind alternates for one game a year but that helmet is just turrible.
