    so...obama took over a failing economy and turned it around in 1 year  .   trump took over a growing econmy and the growth stalled out after 1 year.  obamas economy grew for his last 7 years.   we don't know yet what the future holds for trumps economy...but trends right now are not bright.

     

    How can you say growth stalled when Q3 GDP figures were the highest since 2010? You talk about trends, but then completely ignore one. Almost like you're deep seeded hatred for Orange is disallowing you to look at things objectively? 

     

    :dunno

    thank god we have a business racoon running our country now instead of that idiot obama

     

     

     

    I'm going to say presidents don't control stock markets, then use the stock market to say how s#!tty Trump is. Seriously? Political positioning is so tiring.

     

    I also find it disingenuous that they start this trend in January. Should start in November of the preceding year, as some of the market enthusiasm is already baked in the reference point. I'm not sticking up for Trump, I think the guy is a huge jackass, but it is so infuriating to see people use snapshots or data-mine for market points that support one side of the isle, or the other. There was clearly, indisputable market enthusiasm when Trump was elected. It has tapered of since then, yes, but we're also 9 years into a bull market. If you were to look at decade long data, going back to the 1920s, the average number of up years for the market is 6. We've blown right past that this decade and one would think a reversion to the mean would occur at some point.

     

    As @Waldosaid, completely different economies.

    Kentucky Rivals guy, Dave Lackford, started a thread on RSS stating there’s “some big news coming out of the bluegrass state tomorrow” and to “chill the champagne.”

     

    Keep in mind he also guaranteed that Wandale was N originally.  Skeptical of it, but interesting nonetheless.

     

    fwiw

    Why would Kentucky fans want to chill the champagne if he were to flip?

    No, he never said there was an announcement today.  Likely not even for weeks or months if it does happen.

     

    But "soon" relative to the scale of the project.

    Awesome, thanks.  I definitely misunderstood the original comment!

    You don't even need to do any construction to do a two tiered system for students/normal fans. I've thought for a while that the lowest section of south stadium, up to the first level of horizontal walkways and exits or whatever, should be the student section, across the whole endzone. The walkway would give a natural barrier to the students standing but still not being in the way of people sitting behind them.

    That is actually a great idea. Never thought of that.

  6. I know it's a dream, but god damn I wish they'd tear down the south stadium and have it three tiered. First tier for students, then a club / suite level, then another section of normal tickets. You don't even have to make them that high up. Hell, make the first section steeper than it currently is and maybe only 20-30 rows. Consolidated it down similar to A&M's end zones after the renovations. Put some sort of roof/overhang that traps down the noise like Husky stadium and that place would be complete.

    I didn't say I did. I'm not trying to argue. You just have a point to prove and honestly I could care less about arguing with someone who has very butthurt feelings about how Nebraska fans are on Twitter.

    Does that help a little bit? Do you think Nebraska fans would react that way? 

     

    Never once did I claim our fans are holier than thou on the internet. Unless you have some secret allegiance to Kentucky, I'm not sure why you're so triggered by my shooting the s#!t comment. 

     

    Have a drink, dude. 

    couldn't*

     

    If one were to objectively read our dialogue, I'd be willing to bet they'd imagine you are the one that is "triggered." Usually when you're resorting to using buzzwords or buzz phrases, such as thoughts and prayers, butthurt, piss in cheerios, and triggered, it doesn't bode well for credibility.

     

    EDIT: To the link, yes, I do think our fans react in illogical ways, remember when our players were receiving death threats from their own fans? I know, I know, STL Husker, it doesn't sit well and I'm probably dragging the program through the mud!

     

    Finally, it seems like you're the one that needs the drink but, based off your grammar, I'd question whether you're old enough to even legally purchase one.

    No, I have better things to do with my life. My apologies for having your cheerios pissed in this morning. Thoughts and prayers. 

     

    You didn't piss in my cheerios. Usually when you participate in a discussion, it helps your argument when you can provide actual support rather than just shooting from the hip.

     

    F'ing tight yo! Sick burn on the thoughts and prayers comment, who are you - Trump? Be sure to pick up your internet tough guy award.

    Hell, we were wishing death threats upon our own players.

    Poor Emma because she still has to go to Iowa.

     

    The girl probably figured this tweet wouldn't leave Iowa if Nebraska was as awful at the wave as she claimed she would would have @ the school or at least hashtag huskers in her post.  Her drive to be "cool" and "popular " blew up and I'm glad she learned some accountability, but I'd assume the school would at least want her to issue an apology.   

    I gotcha! Sorry, I misunderstood.
