It may be more efficient to begin measuring the temperature of TM's seat in Kelvin units.

Any humor in the vid is ill-conceived, forced, and practically non-existent.

That double chin and waistline, however, are very very real

Narrator: Up next, on a very special episode of Nebraska Special Teams 2018...

Caleb Lightbourn: (In frustration) Kick the ball, they said! It'll be FUN, they said!!

When I read most of this thread...

Trending upwards? With the way this year has started, we had nowhere to go but up with special teams.

Hope this is a continuing trend. We need all the juice that can be squeezed out of special teams... mostly because I fear our penalty-itis and mental gaffes may resurface at any time.

Sorry, perhaps showing my age, back in the early 90s baseball "superstar" Fred McGriff starred in a baseball instructional video. It was incessantly advertised on ESPN ad nauseum. 

Unnecessary sidenote: he was my best hitter on my old Super Nintendo game, Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball.

Where was I getting Travis from???? 

 

Next thing you know it will be Fred, and he'll be starring in a Tom Emansky baseball drills video

For some of you younger folks, Tom Osborne was notoriously pleasant and consistently won 9 games, but there were many years in his first 20 seasons when the fanbase grumbled about those 9 wins not being enough. 

 

The only difference: no internet. 

It was the age of the small town coffee shop/gas station. I recall many a gripe session down there when Nebraska didnt win in the fashion they'd like.

"I can't believe how slow we started!" "We had no business winning by 3 scores, it shoulda been 50..."

I'll be driving through Madison the following Thursday on a family trip. I can scrape any remains of Husker players off the turf at Camp Randall and drop them off in Lincoln on the way back.

I eyerolled hard enough for my wife to hear from across the house when I saw the thread title. Suspicions confirmed when clicked. I'm going to go back to more productive activities such as arranging movies alphabetically and by genre, and organizing fingernail clippers by age and wear.

No

Thats odd. I don't remember logging on to huskermassiveoverreactionboard.com...and yet here I am.

I reeeally don't think anyone is arguing that our qb depth situation is good or ideal here.  If AM is down for any period of time we're going to be throwing together some patchwork backups...and that most likely will suck as much as the patchwork deck my brother-in-law threw up behind his house.

No.

Can cheekygeek be declared the official Huskerboard meteorologist? If, in fact such a title exists?

I've always got a big ole chaw of cabbage and beef going in my lower lip.  I literally spit Husker Power.

Yeeaaah. Ummm.  No.

* Me, at home this morning.  Going to make breakfast.*

* Power goes out *

"Awww, man! How am I gonna fry these eggs now???" (All electric stove)

*Deep thinking intensifies*

*Whip out phone, bring up Ron Brown thread on Huskerboard.  Place pan on phone*

*Sizzling commences*

The coaching in this league has gone from "meh" to "wowsers" since the time that we joined the B1G. Dolla Dolla bill, y'all!  

OMG, so many +1's here.  Had many a frustrating gameday experience because of old fogeys, and I am nothing even remotely resembling rowdy.

I read your post, and envisioned the narrator being the guy who did the narration for "The Wonder Years."

 

"...and heads were not pulled out of butts."  

I'll second this motion.  I'd also go for something along the lines of the narrator of a children's show, like Thomas and Friends.  

DoNU fan after upsetting Sparty in 2015: Man, this is awesome! Maybe we're gonna start pulling our heads out of our butts and get things rolling!  Things are gonna be ok!

Narrator: But things were not ok, and heads were not pulled out of butts...
