  1. Maybe they could move then to KC then. I am sure most people in KC would gladly trade the royals for the cubs. Added bonus is very little change in the color scheme!!. Winner winner chicken dinner. The Cubs are off to KC

  3. See the big picture- don't get bogged down by the minutia
  4. What's wrong with #22? Should we be higher?
  5. You just answered your own question. If you can lose two or three games and still make it to the title game, those two or three losses have not really adversely affected your season. That is what I mean when I say that the regular season games are diminished. Who cares if their team drops a few a long the way if they can still win the national title? and I disagree. Once a team loses, the feeling is the season is over. At least if a team can regroup and rebound, then they can put together a season worthy of being considered a playoff team. After all it should be how good a team finishes rather then how good a team starts. So I don't feel I really answered my own question. As it is now, once you lose your gone. So you don't think it's exciting risking the success or failure of the season on each and every Saturday? For like that day. Then comes Sunday and you realize that your season is screwed. It's ok if it is very late, because you've had all year to enjoy the ride, or very early because you might recover. For the other 70% of the season it just sucks. If there is an 8 season playoff you still will have those dramatic highs and lows as you still have to be in the top 8.
  6. Like I have already said Junior...you can't do it that way. That's not a true playoff system and it would solve nothing. As you guys know I am against a playoff. Numbers 9,10,11,12 etc would complain about not getting in so nothing would change. The bowl games would suffer...you can't guarantee that every game matters...No clue how money would get handled...the OOC scheduling/scheduling in general. There are more, but I am drained right now. Everybody thinks they should have played in the NCG even before the BCS. And its more the fans that do the crying. Here is what happens with the BCS...win all your games and you are good to go. (The Utah argument does not count...they need to play someone first and Alabama was a bowl game so that doesn't count either). I watch games every Saturday. Every week matters. I don't do that for any other sport and that is why I love college football. Why would I want to change that to please a bunch of cry babies from the MWC who just want a piece of the pie handed to them and not work for it like the rest of the conferences did. No system will be/is perfect. What worse's, being the number 3 team right now or being the #9 or team in a 8 team playoff? Seems to me an eight game playoff is practical and just, at least as just as a playoff system can be. Regular season will still count, and possibly be even more exciting right down to the final week as there will not be the funnel effect that currently happens at the end of the year. The non-playoff bowl games will still be the same-interesting only to the teams that go to them. Being the #9 team will still suck, but not as bad as being the #3 team. This is why I believe an 8 game playoff system is a very good compromise. Why does it have to be a pure playoff? As far as how to choose the eight team- well that is just details.
  7. snow patrol- shut your eyes. Sounds like Neil Young wrote it March of the Cornhusker via internet jukebox at Hubby's bar. I can't believe it is on there
  8. They going to blow today's game or what? 6 to 6 and the mlb site is frozen on my computer Evidently, they're going to try. Not all wins are pretty. I'll take it Espicially if you have what 130 now. Jeez you guys need to start losing some games!! I am glad to see Pierre doing well though. HAHA- not quite 130. Don't think I'm not throwing salt over my shoulder. It's been along time
  9. I have always had good luck on ebay- buying and selling. Might try stubhub
  10. Holy crap!! Here's hoping that parachuter is fine. It did look like he kinda of put on a brave face.

  14. Where do you currently live? New Iberia, Louisiana Where have you lived the longest? York, Nebraska Where has been your favorite place to live/visit? Galveston Where is your ideal place to live? anywhere on a golf course
  15. Anyone go last night? How was it? I live out of state and was just curious. I guess I could download the audio for $10, but I would like a few comments from those that were there.
  16. Didn't write that he was the best player on the team, but rather a great teammate. He really stepped up when needed. Glad to have Manny back though.
  17. Congrats bro. It is a good feeling when things are clicking like that. It's been a long time since I have felt this good about the Dodgers. It will be a fun second half of the season. Concur. Its so nice to see that waiting on Kemp and Ethier is paying off. 20 year Dodger fan here. Can I add praise to Juan Pierre? He embodies what a teammate is suppose to be. Glad your a Dodger Juan!! Love, love this team. This is going to be the greatest year I have had in over a decade with the rise of the Huskers and the Dodgers.
  18. Someone enlighten me as to how a playoff will diminish the regular season? With a playoff, your team loses one or twice you can still fight your way back. You still have to get to the playoffs. As it is now, if you lose, in all probability you are not playing for a NC.
  19. Yes- this is similar to the setup I have been fantasizing about. I have never really understand the hype behind going to a BSC bowl- more money maybe but there is still only one national championship game. A system like this utlizes the BCS bowls, while still having all other bowls. Also IMO, I think that the bowl season is stretched out too far and it would easy to condense the season to alot for two more games at the end of the year. If all the BCS bowls were played on January 1st, then a week later there would be two games, and then the next week would be the championship. That makes the season end on January 14th. Not alot different from when it ends now. Plus, we would have more games during the week between Christmas and New Years- and I would love that. This makes sense too me so it must be flawed. I also am not in favor of getting rid of the human element of polls and ratings. I love the having something to gripe about for years. The human element of college football is what makes it special-It would be sad to not have Beno Cook vote Navy #1 for no good reason. If college football were perfect what would be commiserate about?
  20. I will always associate the sound of a train with Husker football. Back before the new baseball stadium and pedestrian bridge were built, my dad would park around where the baseball stadium is not. We would walk over the train tracks to get to the game. Sometimes we would crawl over parked trains and then wait out a passing train. Also use to make a pre-husker stop in Goehner at the Big Red Barn for a Big Red Burger. Now that was a sandwich. That is going back along time.
  21. How funny this site is from my hometown and I hadn't heard of it until you posted it on Huskerboard. Thanks
  22. 1. Buy a Nebraska ribeye. Rub it with olive oil and garlic salt and pepper. Put it on the grill four minutes each side. Don't kill it 2. Buy a pound of fresh asparagus. steam it 3. Buy a pack of hollendaise sauce. Prepare it and put it in a condiment cup 4. Assemble all on a plate. 5. Cut the steak with your fork, dip your asaparagus in the hollendaise and enjoy!! *if you dare to use ketchup, pack you bags and move to Texas. This is Nebraska BEEF dingdong
  23. As a person who mostly agress with the Repbulican business theory, I don't want socialize healthcare. But there is going to have to be some governement intervention with price controls and limiting legal judgements. Needs to be done immediately. People also need to be rewarded for taking contol of their own lives and health. Move more and eat less and don't smoke if you don't want cancer. Cigarettes are heavily taxed so that may provide for a smokers increased healthcare cost. While providing tax incentives for individuals that do just that maybe anti-republican, something has to be done to motivate each one of us to responsible for our own health. How many of us out there have adult onset diabetes? Mostly completely preventable. Don't complain about heathcare if your not doing you part
