      If memory serves, 90 minutes before kickoff is the standard, but I haven't sat in the student section for about 10 years so I'm not sure if that's changed at all.

      90?  Man, I thought it was way earlier.  I could be wrong.

  4. Quite the dipsh#t do-si-do we got going on right now. Maybe we should administer a remedial level intelligence test before allowing new accounts.

      Well, at least it's the offseason; randos in the Football Forum should fall by the wayside until August or so.

  10. Small world story...

    just found out that a couple we’ve known fairly well for well over twenty years, the lady’s cousin was Brook Berringer’s fiancé. I always thought they were strictly Colorado folks but they knew all about it and actually stopped at the stadium a couple years ago just to see Brook’s statue.

  16. So is it a new goal to remove all possibly contentious discussion from status updates?

      It was pretty obviously a political post. Why would you even post that America was triggered if it wasn't? You could post a million other catch phrases and not have had an issue.

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      @ZRod Like I said, maybe it's just me and maybe I'm wrong or in the minority. I guess stating that America is triggered doesn't throw it into some untouchable realm or necessarily make it political in nature by my standards. 

    4. Enhance

      @Comfortably Numb I didn't see the status update in question but I know the photo you're referencing. I would say, on balance, sharing that topic in the status updates (given the context/intent of that photo and the general contentious nature of guns in America) is a bad idea. Adding a personal comment about people being 'triggered' is an additional bad idea because of that term's popularity and negative connotation recently.

       

      Ultimately, and as you mentioned, it's not really about squelching political speech or freedom of expression. It's more about a) what our members tell us they want b) what's best for the board. Although P&R is a popular forum here, I will always fall back on this being a Huskerboard and we need to usually make that the priority consideration. When political status updates were really at a head last year, we lost some members and had people tell us they didn't want to join our board because of the overwhelming political tones. I think ultimately trimming down this talk in the status updates, while keeping P&R open, is a healthy and amicable balance for everyone involved.

       

      I do appreciate your understanding, though. Sorry if I came off as a bit of a jerk above. The moderation aspect has helped us quite a bit but it wasn't a driving factor.

  17. So there I was, at the parts counter having coffee with the boys and in walks a wild moose and a beaver wearing a SS shirt and.....

      Were the drones made in China?  If so...you are not allowed to mention that!  hahaha

      I'm betting the ones who would be giving an explanation were instructed to more or less "sweep it under the rug" and don't worry about it.  They probably need to test the new secret tech in places other than the Nevada desert.  Just my theory.  When something like that happens and gets pub for a while and then just "disappears".  It's probably in some way military related.

      @Decoy73 That's my theory. And, they are probably about the only people in America to be happy to see the media start to concentrate on Corona Virus.

  25. Sounds like Moos, Riley and some players had a little meeting this morning.

     

    Athletic Director Bill Moos arrived at the Tom Osborne complex around 8:15 Saturday morning and went inside accompanied by a security guard. Coach Riley arrived around 8:30. He spoke briefly with reporters but said he didn't have any news.

    Other members of the coaching staff and Husker players followed, joining the AD and coach inside.
