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.

No matter how big a lead you think you have on your lawn - weeds ALWAYS come back and beat you late in the 4th Quarter.

I sprayed down Prodiamine 65 WDG in the spring and have very little weeds in my yard. Last year I had quite of bit of crabgrass in the backyard and some here and there in the front yard. No crabgrass in my yard at all this year. Little small weeds here and there though but that’s because I only sprayed for a 4 month treatment but VERY satisfied with Prodiamine. Got some clubby fescue that I have to dig out by hand but that’s the only way to get rid of it.

Stop complaining about your life; there are literally people who have no choice but to live in IOWA.

Will Bolt would be the perfect name for a player entering the Transfer Portal.

Will Bolt expected to be named new Nebraska's next Baseball Head Coach today, per texags.co
PS...Not that it matters a hill of beans, but how do I go from "Blackshirt" status to "Scout Team"?

@man eating mastodondepends on who you talk to. There are some folks that want a proven entity, like the Oregon State or Virginia coach, and there are others that are willing to give Bolt a chance since he's had head coaching success at a lower division, he's a Dave VanHorn disciple, and many of the schools making it to the CWS the past few years have been turning their programs around with coaches that have resumes very similar to Bolt's.
Personally, I'm loving this hire, but I can understand why someone may think this is a letdown. Some of this may depend on how much money Moos and the AD office are willing to throw at baseball--if Moos wasn't willing to open the purse-strings a bit, then Bolt may have been all we could have realistically picked up (and probably why Childress stayed at aTm).
I am hoping that Bolt does keep Silva on as the Pitching coach, regardless... -

Moos is really making a name for himself by undoing the bad choices made by his predecessors. Nebraska is fortunate to be getting a "Take 2" when they are. Makes me wonder if Erstad made his retirement decision AT LEAST PARTLY because he KNEW Childress was looking to return to Nebraska (get dissed by Texas A&M people) and the Moos would be open to Erstad's recommendation?
-
Moos has the chance to continue the resurgence of the Nebraska Cornhuskers "brand" if he can manage another "splash hire" at Head Coach for Baseball. Snagging Scott Frost for football, Fred Hoiberg for men's basketball, and now putting his stamp on Nebraska baseball has made him one of the most active Athletic Directors in the country. Timing is right, as the headlines of the Big Ten's being awash in cash is probably making a lot of good coaches in lesser conferences eye spots in the Big Ten with dollar signs in their eyes. It's a good time to be a Big Ten school shopping for coaches, especially if you are Nebraska.

WHY? Curious why my Topic in the Big Ten forum on payments made to 7 school's football players (including Big Ten schools: NORTHWESTERN, MICHIGAN, and PENN ST.) and subsequent comment was removed?

Nebraska not playing it’s best volleyball tonight but still came back from 2 sets down, and now leading 8-7 in the 5th. Epic!

Congrats to Husker volleyball! NOW only Illinois stands between our team and the CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

Ladies, if a man says he will fix it, he WILL.
There is no need to remind him about it every 6 months. -
I’m skeptical of anyone who tells me they do yoga every day. That’s a bit of a stretch.

Never criticize someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. That way they won't be able to hear you from that distance.

You’re welcome sir. I felt the eye roll someone (probably @Moiraine) gave you was not justified.

I used to date a 1-legged girl who worked at a craft brewery.
