      Yeah, that was pretty crazy for a few moments.

      I know, my boys are having a hard time with it too and my wife is a wreck. We had him for 13 years so he was our first kid right when we moved out on our own.

      So sorry to hear this. We had to put our beloved Buddy down in 2012. He was 13 years old and we just didn't want to see him suffer anymore. (On the bright side my oldest daughter told me later that day that I was going to be a grandma! Am loving that role!)

      A little good news would be nice for sure. We've had nothing, but bad news around here lately. Now my other dog, who's 12, won't eat because I'm sure he misses the one we just put down. : (

  3. Love Nebraska's basketball uniforms today!

      I'm not sure if those are the one's you're talking about or not?

      Not a huge fan of the script Huskers. It might work for the basketball team though.

  4. Pretty great feeling when your employer doesn't recognize your years of service to them when they recognize everyone else's. SMH

      My grandfather worked at Union Pacific for almost his entire career. When he was in his 20's, he was even fired and rehired by them.

       

      When he retired in his late 50's as the revenue director, all they did was give him a (cheap) UP watch and told him to clear out his office by Monday morning.

       

      Management can be a bag of a**holes.

      @Enhance did he not get his pension as well?

      UP...treating you like ass while you work there...treating you like a king when you are gone.

  5. You ever had a decision so tough you almost can't make it? It's literally like standing at a y in the road with no idea which road to take! How did you work through that Huskerboard family?

      If you have the luxury of time, talk it over with those closest to you. You probably already know the decision you want to make, but just need some nudging. There's usually never a right answer, just weigh your options like the husker bros said above.

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      If it's so tough that you can't decide which is the better option, go with your heart over your head. If you literally cannot make a decision, flip a coin.

       

      I've found that things are rarely as bad or as good or as scary as we imagine them. Maybe remove some of the extreme expectations from your deliberations and the solution may become more obvious. Good luck

      Did you see my response back to him Lance? That guy was the best man in my wedding, he loves to bust my balls. Good dude though.

  7. Just purchased a replica St. Louis Rams SuperBowl ring. Not the real thing obviously, but I'm stoked about it!

      This one looks pretty sweet. The CZ's are inlaid by hand and aren't glued on like alot of the rings. Can't wait to get it....

      Come on people, no way this is happening. Get in there before kickoff.

      The way this game started, maybe we need to time the last prayer entry to kick off time more often.

  9. Love all the crap Iowa fans have to talk..........it's like the little kid in the corner plugging his ears and holding his breath. "PAY ATTENTION TO ME!!!"

      BOWL ELIGIBLE!! Try growing up in Iowa... Good lord. The ISU fans were worse. They're just straight delusional. Especially after that god awful trainwreck in Lincoln years ago... the 8 TO game...

      I've lived in Iowa my whole life dudeguyy, it sucks!

      Remind then that, unless they're older than about 40, they probably don't remember the last time Iowa beat Nebraska, and the last time Iowa won two in a row against us we were still bombing the hell out of Berlin. Also remind them that if Iowa were to beat Nebraska every year from now until 2028, Nebraska would still hold the all-time series lead.

  10. We had two bye weeks, right before MSU and right before Wisky. Both times we came out flat and got beat down which is piss poor effort on the coaches part preparing this team for a game. Blah....

      Actually we had a bye after the MSU game

      And we didnt come out flat today. i thought that first quarter our defense played as well and as physical as it ever has under Bo. But then one bad thing happened and walah.

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      I'm thinking the less contact time this staff has with the players, the better. Maybe just give em the week off and have em show up Saturday. Couldn't be any worse for sure.

  11. Everyone should probably just come to grips with the fact that Bo's staying. That win saved his job, hopefully there are HUGE changes on his coaching staff, but only time will tell. I don't think he's going anywhere now.

      I never did, that win was big for him staying, IMO.

    3. Husker_x

      Husker_x

      Sounds speculative. Beating a mediocre 7-5 team (who had an even more mediocre schedule to achieve that result) in overtime should have no bearing––none whatsoever––on the Big Picture. You know, the one Bo publicly admitted he doesn't worry about.

      No. They'd have said something already. They're waiting for the games to end so we aren't discussion and the ax falls Sunday.

  12. I started a UCF vs. Memphis gameday thread for anyone that's interested.

      It's in Husker football since Frost is probably going to be our next head coach.

      It's behind the passenger side of the dashboard so had to pull the dash, partially disassemble the dryer in the engine bay so I could pull the core box out enough to do the job. My hands are destroyed right now. Lol

      This is why the second car I had didn't have heat.  Dad and I both said it's not that cold in Vegas, not worth replacing another one, just wear a jacket.

      His mother speaking was one of the saddest things I have ever seen. Sad to see him go, one of the best ever.

  15. can't believe we let that opportunity slip through our fingers! When will this team live up to its potential?

    1. Nexus

      It had the makings of the classic 70's & 80's NU/OU games. Osborne was 5-12 against Switzer, but 8 of those losses OU came from behind in the 2nd half to win. Last night was no different. We had the lead going into the 2nd half and lost it.

    2. Vizsla1

      Vizsla1

      only in cyber space will they live up to their potential

  16. Just bought a new 2011 Chevy Silverado.............what color you ask? VICTORY RED!!!

      Now you need to customize the horn to play all the appropriate Husker fight songs!

    1. NoLongerN

      I'm not at all! If you follow recruiting on this board I can't see how anyone would conclude lower then a B+.

      I'll supply this thread as reason enough about how this class shapes up. http://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/topic/56183-stop-worrying-about-recruiting/ If one can dismantle this argument then I'll be concerned come signing day.

      Two, lol, he was puking while sitting on the toilet at the same time. He also was standing in the bathroom and just let it fly all over the bathroom floor. Good times....

      I think at this point most Husker fans would say this game is more important than the bowl game. And yes...Kill'em dead Huskers.

  23. To those that lost their lives on 9/11/01 we will never forget! To those first responders who ran towards the sound of chaos when others were running away, my respect to you and may you all RIP.

      They're still dying BRI. Expect deaths from cancer to continue to rise for the first responders that were there.
