  1. Yeah, I'm sure the online petition is really going to be the tipping point for Eichorst. insert heavy sarcasm here Maybe if it gets sent to him with a $10 million check. Anything else is just a bunch of people bitching on the internet.
  2. LOL. Wasn't he one of the "Don't underestimate Tim Beck" cheerleaders who balked at any skepticism when he was hired? Oh well. Bygones be bygones. For anyone yet to join us in reality, there is no more rope for this staff. If Bo wants another uninspired season in front of a hostile fanbase, at the very least it's housecleaning time on that worthless staff to grant him the privilege. He could have hired a team of fratboys with "How to Coach LittleLeague" pamphlets––which is what this looks like in the offseason as well––and the results could not have been this disastrous. If Bo gets another year based off the W/L record, it's hard to argue the AD made the wrong call. But let's just be real clear about what this means: this team, basically identical, except for Ameer Abdullah. Problem is we are not representative of the Husker fan base. My FB feed has people "well it was snowing", and "Cant blame Bo, the kids didn't perform". They either cant or wont see a problem, that is a large chunk of Husker Nation. EDIT: A lot of people just dont give a crap any more. once the rout was on how many just turned the channel?
  3. Please...cause blowout losses on National TV over and over, a coach with a reputation for being a jerk, obvious poor coaching and it's Huskerboard banter that pushes the recruit away... Please <insert recruit's name> don't leave! We're really the best fans in football deep down. We just sometimes get a little sad when we lose really bad....again... Should of put the
  4. Shut up.... Come back when you have a real argument..
  5. Jesus Christ... Am I really pulling for Miami?

  6. All this thread does is hurt recruiting, and because of this thread no other coach will ever come here... EVER...
  7. I like this as well, is was pretty enjoyable, and a lot of the characters were pretty bombastic, it had some majot plot holes but overall the story moved at a good pace. I like how the level of decadence went up as they went forward, and the highest level was actually being alone. Although I find the narrative of rich= evil, and repressive; poor=repressed, exploited and somehow inherently noble/moral to be getting old..
  8. Smoking drugs is bad. Don't turn it off watch all of it... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrGrOK8oZG8
  9. Only from one side. We hate Wiscy because they destroyed us, the dont give a crap about us because they destroyed us. If it gets balanced with blow outs and hard losses and dreams ruined year in and out then it will develop. Heck the way the B1G is going they wont be in our division in four years. I think it's misleading to say that Wisconsin fans don't care about Nebraska. Certainly they see NU as a natural geographic rival and one of the biggest threats in the West each year. The makeup of the old Legends and Leaders was sort of jumbled and hard to establish rivalries in, but for the most part, the West is shaping up to be a fun division where rivalries come naturally. I'm sure they care enough, just not to much to consider us a rival when two out of three games has been heavily in your favor. NU-CU was a made rivalry, we owned them to the tune of 49-18-2 or something.. They got a little better at the end, but most fans would never say they were a rival, the fans were jackasses, that is what fueled most of the "hate" towards them.. I do agree down the line Wiscy Huskers could grow into a great rivalry, but it will take years of hard fought battles and heart break on both sides to truly cement it. EDIT: ,

  11. Meh those jobs are on life support anyway. Jack in the Box has kiosks for ordering, McD's and the rest will follow suit as well. As for Walmart, and those large companies, self check out and switching from the bar code to RFID will do away with most of those jobs as well.
  12. For myself, I am a people person. Heard of the train of death? Seen the people dead from dehydration? Women trafficked, and sold into the sex trade? Border towns where murder/rape go unreported? The Illegal with no recourse for an employer not paying wages, or afraid to report crime because of his status... That's what I want to stop, if they want to work here, fine, start a guest worker program so they can easily enter the US with full rights and protections. Although I am not a Republican....
  13. What an amazing weekend of football, perfect slot for the bye.

  14. I think you are right. The Domers will drop below us, and if the A&M game keeps this way I kinda see Auburn dropping as well. I want Sparty to win, that way if we make it to the conf champ they should be ranked very high.
  15. Because you post these one line threads, and you have basically the same thread only a few down from this one. You are clogging the board, use the status update...
  16. It should be OK at this point to point out good in the Callahan Era. He is great at Offense, no doubt, and was able to recruit very well. Obviously he did not get how things worked at the college level.
  17. Do you know what a status update is... Its getting old seeing you post a new thread every time a thought pops in your head.
  18. 1 What route do you think the repubs should go? Cut spending, cut taxes, seal the southern border, work out a plan for work visas etc for illegals in country. Keep up plans on National Defense via renewing our warheads, beyond that the military needs to shrink, the Navy doesn't want as many carriers as they have also the next gen is on the way cut that, focus money on special ops, advanced weaponry. Balance the budget, renew calls for balanced budget amendment, lock Federal spending to 10-12% of GDP unless time of declared war. Remove the death tax, cap tax rates at 25%, for individuals and corporations. True SS reform, we can no longer kick the can, those currently on, and heading into it (say 10-15 yearas out) get current system. 2 Which route do you think they will actually go? Related: How big of a struggle will there be in the party between moderates (which may like option 2 above) and tea party (option1). Tax cut for the rich, more spending deficit will swell, debt continues, pass some form of amnesty, attempt Obama impeachment, shoot themselves in the dick over a social issue, drop Pres in 2016 by running a Romney/McCain ticket. 3. What should be the top 5 issues they should tackle? 1 Border 2 SS 3 Spending 4 Taxes 5 Anything that is good for the country and both side agree on, to get the ball rolling (good luck on that!) 4. Which route do you think Obama will go - work wt Congress or remain ideologically pure and fight Congress all of the way wt his 'pen, phone, and veto' via executive action. He will work with them at first depending on what bills get brought up. Min wage is dead until after 2016, some sort of amnesty will pass in 2015, Vote to repeal Obamacare will result in veto, after that back to gridlock. EDIT: Bold flavors.
  19. Getting off topic a little. I really love Runzas. I go to a Runza restaurant almost every time I head back to NE. If you love Runzas they're easy to make. The ones I make are better than the fast food chain's. Here's a basic recipe for them, which will essentially give you what you get in the restaurant: http://thisfoodthing.com/index.php/2007/08/original-runza-recipe/ ------------------------------- It's always interesting to read the comments from opposing fans. Thanks. My wife makes them about once or twice a year at home too. I still like getting the original Runza once in a while. Nostalgia, I guess. You can get them frozen from most restaurants as well. They have to sell them baked now but they reheat pretty well if you do it in the oven. I take several dozen when I go to visit friends in Seattle.
  20. You're right, not enough coffee yet. As for the rest NU tries to run a clean program but no matter what you will have people trying to gain favor with players, and some of them might be in a bad situation or just corrupt themselves.
  21. Was just reading the article. Sounds like NU has interviewed all involved and self reported to the NCAA. I think the "true cost" scollys are something we will need to look at. EDIT: Sounds like the kids are met with and sign a document about what they can and cannot receive as gifts. I dont know if a flight on a private jet is in or out, but a new suit and $800, would seem to be over the line
  22. Scares us as in the players? No, I'd say they dont, I'm sure the team has a healthy dose of respect for them, but that's it. As for them fearing us, again the same, they will be cocky since its at home and we all know what happened the last time we played. As a fan I have a healthy respect for them as well, of the few things I fear Wisconsin football is not one of them.
