  1. Not surprised by your bitter counterstatement. It's right on time too. Like clockwork.
  2. Yeah man, don't even bother. You'll need a few days to get it out of your brain when having random thoughts. It's super depressing, sick and it sucked.
  3. No. Don't ever watch it. The 2nd film looks just as dark as the first. I had high hopes when it came out and saw it at the theater. It's just so psychologically depressing. J Phoenix gets beaten up. Then later he gets kicked when he's down again. Then again. And again. And somehow the writers are telling the audience "I don't think you get the message, so we are going to do it some more, and have J. Phoenix bathe his 60 year old naked mom"..... Phoenix does this stupid thing where he weeps, then burst into hysterical psycho laugh at different times. He has a therapist. He's poor. He works with other ugly clowns. But those clowns want to steal from him and beat him up. Meanwhile there is a lot of Frank Sinatra music playing.... so it must be hip and cool. 2 hours later he becomes the Joker. And he get's invited to a late night talk show and stabs the talk show host in the neck (Robert Dinero). 20 minutes later the movie ends. And that was the only time this week little POS ever showed any kind of violence or meanness. So I guess he snapped finally. The movie is dark and depressing. It's overacting. You don't think Joker. You just see Joaquin Phoenix being a wimp. And the writing is creepy and wants you to feel it. Def not a Joker movie. Just because at the end he is wearing joker costume and painted face. But the other 2 hours is disgusting and dark and awkward and creepy.
  4. Wrong, it is not easy, the committee does make mistakes and there is human error and bias to decide college football playoffs and rankings. Three times in only 9 seasons total, there have been 2 teams in the playoffs representing the same conference. There has been plenty of years where there has been long discussions of who deserves to be playing instead of "insert name of another team equally deserving" Thought we wanted to get away from that by creating something amazing with unity, and without bias and human intervention/decision making + computers crunching stats and strange numbers.
  5. You totally misunderstood, like everything I said.
  6. How do we not have 16 team playoff ? 4 games per side of a bracket (8 teams per side). Play until you have a championship game that is earned. With 12 team format, I just don't agree with bye weeks for the top chosen teams. Who selects the top 4 teams and how is it decided ?? A committee (group of people and financial influence, TV recommendations, etc). There will always be human error and bias and controversy. Money will always be involved. Advertising and TV will also be involved. Even computer numbers will get crunched to help pick the top 4. And I thought the single most important factor for deciding a national championship game was to avoid all the BS. 4 teams with same record ranked 1-4. Who decides the pecking/ranking order and why is that ok? Just wondering when a day comes when everything gets thrown away and smart people say "it's 8 teams, no byes, play ball" or... "it's 16 teams, no byes, play ball". Which leaves us the question..... how do you rank a team? Seriously
  7. Makers Mark will always be good. Get a nice 'rocks' glass set. Add ice, Makers Mark, coca-cola. The carbonation is good. Squeeze in lime if you want to or not. Or you can add ocean spray cranberry juice instead of cola. Or Sprite. Or Tab. Whatever you like. Once you finish the first one, you will likely add more bourbon and slightly less cola with the next pour. I don't care what anyone says, Ice is great. Fizzy cola with carbonation is a great addition too. Sipping 2 drinks on a weekend night is perfect for relaxing and chilling. Makers Mark. Bourbon. Red Cap. For The Win
  8. Give me Mezcal, the worm, some limes and 2 street tacos FTW I love gasoline and turpentine. With or without the scorpion

    Not if it's 2028 !
  10. lol do they even try anymore ?!?
  11. I really really like this 2024/25 Husker team. I cannot not wait to see them. Big big pickups with Essegian, Griffiths, Buyuktuncel. Point guard seems to have some good experience and depth/rotation. Curious to see if Janowski gets minutes during meaningful times of the game. And Frager too. I feel like this year at some point will be "can't miss TV".

    Probably right. IF KC can get past the Miami Dolphins, Bills or Jets this year. AFC East is tight yo! But after that, KC would have to beat the 49ers or Cowboys or Bears in the Super Bowl. Perhaps the Lions. Having said that, I probably lean on KC winning it all again too.
  13. Not sure how it will play out by the time B1G season starts and through the rest of the year, but this is mostly the radar guys that we are familiar with. Banks, Neyor.... IGC, Bullock,... Lloyd, Coleman, Bonner, Doss..... Banks Neyor and IGC are Seniors, Bullock is a Junior At tight end, Fidone and Boerkircher are Juniors. The rest are freshmen. Need an uptick this year in speed, route running, spacing, catching, and YAC in comparison to last year. Hoping Raiola helps them become even better.
  14. Dang, this guy coming back again? I hope Kamdyn Koch gets every opportunity to win the full time job. If they want someone to flip the field, that is. And if they care about shanking punts 20 yards from their own 15-20 yard line. I'm just being brutally honest. He seems like a nice guy, and enjoys the married life having supper with his wife and all. But he has a high school leg and chokes a lot.
  15. Wind makes grass fluffier and soft
  16. Since it clearly says "Big Ten QB" here's some stats for comp. Don't have enough time to include Armstrong yet. Would love to see that. These stats are B1G only. Adrian Martinez 31 games 34 passing TDs 27 rushing TDs 61 total TDs 25 interceptions 21 200 yard passing games 4 300 yard passing games 5 100 yard rushing games Taylor Martinez 18 games 21 passing TDs 10 rushing TDs 31 total TDs 15 interceptions 4 200 yard passing games 2 300 yard passing games 5 100 yard rushing games I did not find total fumbles and fumbles lost. Also, Taylor played in the Big 12 during his first season. In the B1G era, the Huskers only played 8 conf games per year when he was there (plus one CCG). His senior season was cut very short and played only 1 Big Ten Game. Just thought it was interesting
  17. Rose admitted he only gambled on the Reds to win, and never to lose. So it's hard to believe. As a player he took amphetamines (greenies, uppers, speed) to become more alert and for energy. I recall reading that in his book in HS. And it wasn't until 2006 that MLB started testing for speed (amphetamines) as illegal. Pete said a lot of players used it because the season is too long and hard on the body and mind to be laser-focused every day. Just like the NBA, MLB also had a coke and speed issue during the 70s. I think as a player Pete Rose deserves HOF. The gambling thing was when he was a manager / part time player - which was only a gimmick because he already had the all-time hit record. As a manager - no. In fact, Bill Russell is listed in the NBA HOF as a player. Bill Russell is also in the NBA HOF as a manager. He got in the hall at different times. So MLB should keep Pete's manager stuff separate. A lot of players could have been HOF players without steroids. Some just became the greatest because of it. I still have no answer why Harold Baines made it to the HOF, other than writers that vote can be hard-nosed purest idiots with agendas. Dave Parker was way better the player, but yeah he smoked some cigarettes in the dugout during games and had coke at times. Dave Kingman is way better than Baines, but he hated talking to the media, the media voters hated him, and kept him out. The HOF is so ridiculous when it should be a celebrated thing. And players from the era should vote. And have more weight on the vote than some writer from Cali that hates Boston or never watched the Pirates play.
  18. This is most def an interesting group. Emmett Johnson is probably the season starter and will be going into his 3rd year on campus (redshirt plus last year). He had 5 straight games of 50 rushing yards including 2 games going over 70. I would assume he has added a little more power to his frame. I thought he did a great job and is the best of the group. But it's not exactly a great RB group. R.Johnson is coming off injury. He's still quick and elusive. Tough back for his size. And it's his 6th year. Gabe Ervin is coming off injury again. Missed Spring game. Rhule confirmed that he is "full go" for the season. Wonder if he will see much playing time or what kind of impact he will have. 3 years and 3 injuries. Dante Dowdell transferred from Oregon. A bit bigger than Gabe, he had just 17 rushes through 6 games last year as a rookie (true frosh). Kwinten Ives - 6-2 190 showed some positives with limited touches last year. Could become a factor among the top 3 or 4 guys sharing the ball. Marrice Mazzccua is a SR from Philly with mostly DII experience. Just 5'8 and similar to R.Johnson. What are yalls thoughts? Do you feel good about our backs or unsure?
  19. FWIW - Ground to Cloud lightening is common among skyscrapers and tall buildings. It starts from the ground (or skyscraper) from a positive charge and travels upward into the cloud. As seen in pictures above. The opposite is when more natural lightening travels from bottom of cloud to ground. It is a flow of negative charges from the cloud to the ground.
  20. I shall catch these games in person, most def
  21. Official visit for the Huskers Colorado football game, wow. That's 2 of his top 4 teams at the moment. Winner of that game could make a huge impact
