  1. Who woulda thought the real damage of the Callahan years would be that a large portion of the fanbase no longer expects excellence? What some people are willing to settle for and even defend is just sad. The football product that is being put on the field is unacceptable, no ifs, ands, or buts.

      I know the difference BBB12. I DON'T GIVE A f#*k! Excuses or explanations explaining why we underperformed or didn't succeed- I'm tired of needing explanations. It's time for results. Adapt, overcome....and leave the cry towels at home.

      This whole tirade is not aimed at you btw. It is aimed at our inept coaching staff. If they worried half as much about preparing this team and actually coaching them to win as they do about f'ing twitter and some asshat journalists and boo hoo poor officiating, we would be seeing different results.

      I'm in total agreement JJ. These kinds of excuses never flew for decades. So why accept it now? Because some asshat talking head says we should? Expect excellence, and accept nothing less.

  2. Who ya got for your big upset picks? I've got Oregon, StMarys/MidTenn, & Minny. Not real happy that I'm so close to chalk.

      Minnesota, ISU, and Oregon. Oregon is the only one I have winning two games.

      I've also got ISU and Oklahoma but didn't think those were big stretches. Ole Miss is a decent stab at an upset. Oregon going 2 could be a little brave but WTH. My main contest rewards first round upsets with the seeding differential for points so it can be a difference maker.

  3. Who's that whispering in my ear? Oh it's you Mr. Claymore Scotch Ale. I'll be with you shortly.

      I can get it at any liquor store in town (Greeley, CO). It's brewed by Great Divide in Denver. So, depending where you are.....

      I was very surprised by it. Darker and maltier than I expected with a nice hop profile. I've never really had anything I can compare it to. Also known as a "wee heavy".

  4. Whoa Nelly, happy birthday Keith Jackson. 86 today.

  5. Why are people hung up on losing in week 1? For the last 7 years the only thing determining when we won or lost a game was pretty much determined by when we were scheduled to play a team with a heartbeat or a patsy. So we played a good team in week 1 for once, so what? Is it really any different than losing in week 3 or 6 or........?

      I think there is some truth to what he is saying. This off-season there was a lot of "I will be happy if we play well and have some close losses" I don't really like that. I would be happier if we played bad and won.

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      And your higher level of contempt and disdain for losing accomplishes exactly what? You're a more pure fan? You want the mid 90's back worse than the next guy? You're a better fan because it bothers you more? What is it that let's you shake your head and look down in disgust at these "other" fans?

  8. Winning our ccg within the next few years is going to be mighty tough I think. This Buckeye team is for real and won't be going away for awhile.

      Honestly we have the talent, in the past it's just come down to depth and coaching.

      We did go toe to toe with USC, so its not like we are Purdue. But our line play needs to get a lot better

      I was going to mention that strig and I remembered we're supposed to have so highly touted redshirt freshmen on the OL next year.

      I don't remember how many times I told Schaefer's to quit running Christmas in July sales, lest they break the calendar. Now we have XMas movies on Hallmark, GoT starting up, the Alamo Draft House is showing National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation...

  10. Wonderful, the beginning of a new club volleyball season. Headed down to the Springs this afternoon so we can get up bright and early Sunday for some vball at Ft Carson HS.

      Thx. Our region plays at locations on the front range, ranging from ft collins throughout denver and down to the springs. We're on the north end of that yet have played 80% in the springs or south denver. Don't want to whine, but I will.

  11. Wondering if ShawnWatson was satisfied with his UNL penis ring acquisition.

  12. Woohoo, got my 4 star downtown Denver hotel for under $100 night. Thank you William Shatner.

      What hotel did they put you at? I am going down in April and couldn't believe how expensive hotels were in downtown Denver. I was thinking of going the Priceline route too.

      I got the Sheraton which was one of the few I was hoping for. Only 4 blocks to the convention center. Prob could of got it a bit cheaper ($80ish) if I would've went the bid route but some super duper Express Special popped up and offered $95, then I got an additional 5% off that, so I just took it.

  13. Woohoo, this legal marijuana deal is paying off in spades here in CO. The state is going to collect about 50% more than estimated, which with our tabor law means every taxpayer in the state will be getting refunded about $8 per person. Does this make me a drug lord?

      Seriously considering transitioning some of our business space into a grow operation. The regulations and oversight are killer though.

  14. wow is Indiana's defense gawd awful bad. Wish we coulda played them this year.

      Lol. Wiscy has 436 rushing yards.......at the end of the third quarter.

  15. Wow! I didn't see that coming. Well I did but I didn't think it would actually happen. Good for MR. Now go get somebody that knows D....and can recruit D linemen.

      He has never been the same after the stroke. Its probably time to replace him on the show.

  17. Ya know, I thought about making the list before but Ithought to myself nobody likes it when you say I told ya so, so I didn't make that list of people who were just waiting in thewings for every singlemisstep or error that Riley might make. Guess I'll just have tobesatisfied knowingthat list would have been almost 100% accurate.

  18. Yeah, about this defense, uh, it's not going to work.

      Well, the scheme MIGHT work if we had some DB's who could cover without help and if we could pressure/hurry the QB but, since we don't, yeah it's a scheme problem. Gotta put the boys in a situation to get the job done. This isn't that.

    3. It'sNotAFakeID

      It'sNotAFakeID

      exactly. you need to match the scheme to the personnel; something we've seen on offense, but have yet to see on defense.

    4. It'sNotAFakeID

      It'sNotAFakeID

      we need to have that safety help over the top

  19. Yeah, that might cost me but it had to be said.
