  2. In a glorious place to Cheer!
  3. Just found this! Posted on KETV.COM http://www.ketv.com/news/18156332/detail.html# LINCOLN, Neb. -- Jim Carrey's new movie "Yes Man" will be giving some extra attention to Husker Nation when it opens Dec. 19. Some scenes from the film were shot at Memorial Stadium during a less-than-memorable game in the 2007 season. In the film, Carrey's character becomes only capable of saying "yes" to any request. When producers wanted a Nebraska football game to be part of the film, university officials couldn't say no to the offer. "We got the entire script and made sure the University of Nebraska was being represented in a positive way," said UNL information director Dave Fitzgibbon. The crew came to Memorial Stadium in October to get all the color that a game had to offer. Carrey and the other actors didn't come at that time, which may have been a good thing. The loss to Oklahoma State that day was one of the worst home losses in school history. After that game, Nebraska said "no" to its athletic director, Steve Pederson, and later to its coach, Bill Callahan. Through the magic of Hollywood, artists re-created the scene at the Los Angeles Coliseum, complete with Husker wardrobe and a casting call for 800 Big Red fans in California. Fitzgibbon said he was invited as a technical advisor. "I got called into Mr. Carrey's makeup trailer and I got there and he introduced himself, a really nice guy," he said. "He wanted me to sing Husker fight songs." Fitzgibbon sang Hail Varsity and There Is No Place Like Nebraska. He said Carrey wasn't too impressed. "(He said), 'No, no. Is there like a chant?' I said, 'I guess there's Go Big Red." That one, he said, got a big yes from Carrey. He said no one has ever done the chant quite like him. "I've seen a lot of people going crazy on game days and Jim Carrey is going to make us proud," Fitzgibbon said. The University of Nebraska received $10,000 for site location fees, in addition to loads of free publicity.
  4. I've seen his name come up in a couple of other threads, but I want to hear what you guys know about him. Anyone on here old enough to see him play? Was he good in the pocket? Was he more Pro style? How good of an arm did he have? I was lucky enough to work with Jerry when he first moved back to Omaha. I was really, really young and only wish I could go back in time and pick his brain more then I did. I believe he finished up his career in Canada and If I remember right he might have had to quit football due to bad Knees! (And FYI: He couldn't be a nicer guy!)
  5. "In July, Williams was sentenced to two years probation and fined $500 at a plea hearing in his hometown of Denton, Texas, after he was accused of robbing a man last April." If this is true, F#CK that man!!! Let him rot in a prison somewhere!
  6. Thanks Joe!, man I wish you had another year!
  7. “You never know,” Pelini said. “That’s why he’s indefinitely suspended.” I take that as Bo saying "How many times do I have to tell you Dumb A$$ reporters?"
  8. Or change it to And the Bo-out Corn-tinues
  9. Just as long as he doesn't wear shorts @ 32 degrees like all those other dumb@ss's I see out there!
  10. 1st down, what happend, foot ball GODs had a flipping bathroom break???????
  11. OMFG we must of pissed off the football gods or something!
  12. And thats how you keep people from posting!!
  13. IMO I think he could take some of that energy and put toward calling the next play alot of the time! Because in the end it not going to help as much as taking the time on the next play call! Or maybe take the time and tell Watson to go long maybe!
  14. Hey I don't mind calling things like they are but picking out something like "Working the Refs” a complete column because you can't think of anything else? Write a fricking story, make it positive and add a couple of paragraphs about things we need to work on. Two weeks ago He was about as negative as h*ll too! Isn't he from Missouri??
  15. I like that! Ask the Peters!!! SLAMMMMM I truely don't know when to give them out, but will back Bo when he does but I don't believe you give them out to a Defense ranked around what 50-60th in the nation?? (Give it to them because they are trying really really hard?) Wait till next year, hmmmm maybe halfway through the season and if the Defense is ranked in at least the top 25 then post the question again! BlackShirts = Defense ranked 55??
  16. I liked the Fire and passion, we are about to see (in a year or two) this fire rolling over and tearing up a lot of big time opponents!!
  17. Ok, so I see Suh Propelling himself toward the guy 1 yard out of bounds, he pulls his head up to just Land on him. right? So is what is the written rule on this? He didn't hit, he landed or it doesn't matter because he propelled himself toward the guy?
