  1. I love college football, but this ain't the year to play it. Already so many reports that this disease attacks the heart as well. Don't need to risk anyone's health over a game.

      The propensity for thrombi that impacts the heart and other organs seems to be more prolific with Covid 19, or it

      is certainly behaving differently and looks to be causing long term organ damage.  It's not just myocarditis, sadly more severe than that.  Not that many common cold patients need lung transplants.

  2. Does anyone understand why The Irishman isn't getting a wide release, but only relegated to small theaters?

      There's a podcast on Fresh Air with the stepson of Chuckie O'Brien that's worth listening to.  I had no idea the story or the relatives involved.  https://www.npr.org/2019/10/01/766010613/in-hoffa-s-shadow-uncovers-an-author-s-family-ties-to-a-mafia-mystery

       

      And I think because it was produced by Netflix there is a small theatre release now, then it goes live on streaming at the end of Nov.

  3. Anybody else think MoWa gets his hand slapped for tweeting from the locker room during the game?  Injured or not - I'm betting this isn't a Frost approved act.

    1. NM11046

      I do not follow him.  They read the tweet on the air during the game.  I would assume you do as most players do - either get yourself treated, dressed and back to the field to play or treated, into street clothes and back to the sideline to watch the game.  Nothing shocking content-wise for sure, but I'd bet anybody doing it would get spoken to.  Wasn't even thinking about his ongoing legal drama.

  5. Game starting on Fox Business channel.... Would my liberal friends on the board like me to keep them updated until it returns to regular programming.

      He was bad, but things got really crazy when Corey L came on to close out the section.  I don't understand how people think that programming is "news" and not propaganda.  Zero gray there. #GBR

      Yes please - that channel is blocked at my home.  :-)  I switched over and Lou Dobbs is still talking so if you just give a heads up when it actually is on that would be great.

  8. Is it just me or did Adrian look injured?  He was SO off today!  He looked like he was either physically injured or wasn't feeling well. (Flu?) Our O-Line needs some major work but our defense looked pretty decent.  Those penalties killed us.

      I also wondered if they worked a lot on his throwing mechanisms over the summer.  He seemed to lack confidence.

    I feel like it would be best to go with something that seems almost randomly generated:  xrg456

  11. I hope I haven't been upsetting people too much on the politics board.  I really don't want to get banned so if I go too far tell me.

  12. Okay, question, but first I just want to say I understand the demeaning nature of blackface as it pertains to the past, however, if a white kid/person wanted to dress up as their favorite athlete/celebrity/etc who happens to be black, shouldn't they make it as real as possible? Or is it better to try and find a mask of the person to wear? Same for reverse, if black person wanted to dress as favorite white athlete/celebrity, etc shouldn't they try to look like the person? FYI, I haven't done halloween for years and don't really care for it, but just seeing articles talking about stuff like this and wondering what everyone thinks.

  13. Senator John McCain has died.  America has lost a hero

    1. NM11046

      NM11046

      The most I've been upset in years.  He was a good man, regardless of some of his political leanings he was of good character.  He worked across the aisle, admitted his mistakes.  We could all be more like him.  The video of him correcting one of his supporters when she accused Obama of being an "arab" makes me cry - to think we've gone from that to what we have in the GOP now is sickening.  Godspeed John McCain.  May your buddy Lindsay start putting actions behind his words of admiration of how you lived your life, and may others step up to be more like you.

      Am I the only one that doesn't think former players should feel like they can pick the next coach?  I can't imagine going back to my high school and saying "i want Mr. Smith to coach basketball next year".

  15. Great site to check and make sure you're registered to vote, sign up for absentee ballot if needed or verify your voting location and representatives, one stop shopping!  www.iwillvote.com

      This one has links to each state's site and ability for Nebraska to search by county, name, birthdate etc.  Maybe it's more helpful:  https://www.vote.org/am-i-registered-to-vote/

      I didn't get that ... my link took me to the state of Massachusetts Secretary of the State website and allowed me to search by name address etc.  I didn't mess with "I commit to vote" but instead "check if I'm registered".  Perhaps that's the difference?  

       

      Edit: just tried for the state of NE and you don't have the same choice I do.    I checked MT, HI, NJ, AL, FL, WA, WV, UT, TX, NH, SD and others and they all have the screen below.  Only Nebraska, North Dakota And Maine don't  have the option.  So I'm sorry BRB.  Wasn't trying to corner anybody - odd that most states allow online verification except a handful.  If I have time later I'll contact the site directly about the requirements for those states.  I find that really unusual.  And I don't blame you - I don't give my info to anybody.5b735bd947a07_ScreenShot2018-08-14at6_46_18PM.thumb.png.6964bc8efb4e17a3bf8aff9ce5e87089.png

  17. In light of the Urban Meyer cover-up news, do you think Osborne would have survived the 90's as head coach if it was in today's time of social media and hot takes? At the very least, without proper context and from the outside in, some of his behavior looks ~very~ morally suspicious.

    1. NM11046

      NM11046

      I think we'll have to disagree JJ - during that time the pressure for NE FB (and TO in particular) to finally win the big one was significant.  I don't doubt that Tom did many good things, and is a good man.  I also don't doubt that while he wanted to help kids, and LP inparticular, there's no way that kid stays on the team if he wasn't the RB he was and didn't have the skills to get the big win for the state.

      You guys are pretty naive if you think he did what he did just to help LP.  If LP was a walk on running back with the same history and crimes and he wasn't a game changer on the field he would have been gone.

      That article on TO is pretty top line - Scotty Baldwin and other issues in the late 80's early 90's when I was there were handled very poorly.  In addition to a number of issues with the staff that were swept under the carpet.  Love TO, love my Huskers, but no, I don't think he'd have survived.  Or at least he shouldn't have.  Part of loving something is recognizing its faults, we deserved the negative attention ESPN gave us then, and probably more.

  20. I know its fun to dog on Iowa about sports, but seriously, something needs to be done about this missing kids thing. 40 kids in 10 days have went missing. It has to be a sex traffic ring one would think. f#&%ing sickos need to be caught and tortured. Sorry, some people just deserve to be tortured imo. #comeuppence

    1. NM11046

      NM11046

      In that article one of the first things it states out the gate is: "It's important to note that many of those listed as missing may have chosen to leave on their own accord. Of the most recent 20 people reported missing in Iowa as of Friday morning, 17 are teenagers.  While the numbers may be surprising to some, the Iowa Department of Public Safety said the numbers are in line with history."

       

      I don't disagree that something needs to be done to make people safer, just wanted to put out there that from what I can find, there isn't anything close to that number disappearing and involved with sex trafficking.

      So I'm not doubting your comment CN, but I keep seeing a lot of people talking about high numbers going missing there and have yet to be able to find any information that backs that up.  Where are your stats coming from?  I am just having a hard time believing that number of missing kids/teens wouldn't be in the news, and from what I can find, it's not.
