      I could do some cheese. It'd be hard to know which ones have cheese and which don't, though.

      Just sprinkle some cheese on top of them Knap. Identification problem solved. Or make a small scored x or c on them.

      Are you my wife knapp? Coincidentally, she is making Runzas (or the more generic-krautburgers) for us this evening as well.

  2. Somebody remind me again what Mike Tomlin did that was so egregious.

      He said he usually watches the big screen on kickoffs. I think the Raven returner was going to get caught anyway.

      Account it wasn't really that big of a deal, but it calls into question the integrity of the game.

      he definitely affected the play though. Watching from the end zone that the player returns the ball from, you can see him go straight into the pittsburgh player. While if Tomlin didn't get in the way he has a much better chance of going the distance as he doesn't have to slow down and turn.

  3. Is this Terran Petteway's last game as a Husker?

      Agree, Minnesota, TP doesn't seem to have much trust in anyone, let alone his teammates.

      ^^^ I blame some of this on the coaches. Our offensive sets consist of Blah blah blah, throw it to TP with 8 seconds left in the shot clock and tell him to bail us out. They don't run anything for him without the ball. Better players around him and some better offensive plays would help him tremendously.

      Well TP hurt his stock this year, I think. So it's either cut your losses because you fear you might worsen it next year, or come back, spend another year refining your game, and improve your stock.

      I don't know if this was the same inspiration for knapps status, but mine came from the recent Paul Krugman o-ped of the same title.

      Folks--there's a reason the rest of the P5 conferences abhor using Pac-12 officials--because stuff like this happens almost every...single...time...

       

      ...don't believe me? Go ask Oklahoma, who got one of the most famous of screw jobs from the (then) Pac-10.

      It's also important to mark this day, because Teddy Greenstein, who has traditionally hated on Nebraska and wasn't a big fan of our inclusion into the conference, is defending us and our accusations of officiating bias in public. It means, in a way, he's finally accepted we're in the B1G.

      I think the one that got to me the most was the review of the 4th down spot and Frost was absolutely irate about. I thought they were short and that the ball never reached the 48 yd. line but apparently there was not enough evidence to overturn it. 

  6. What is your basic sports skill fail?

     

    Mine is, despite watching football for forever, I cannot throw a spiral. Just utterly fail whenever I try.

      I was at a 5 day baseball camp in middle school and on opening night testing, I was at the speed gun and tried stopping my arm mid throw which resulted in a spiral fractured humerus. Snapped in half and sounded like the loudest cracked knuckle you could imagine. Ended up discovering a unicameral bone cyst.

      There's no narrative to fit. How good was Oregon this year? How good was Wiscy this year? UCLA was no powerhouse last year...they were in the freaking Foster Farms bowl with us. Sure it was a great win for us but that is the point. Teams like that are our best wins.

    3. knapplc

      2015 UCLA almost went to the PAC-12 Championship. Wisconsin went to the Big Ten Championship this year and lost by 1 TD. Those were good teams. Those are good wins. Michigan State last year was a good win.

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Didn't say they weren't good wins. Those are our best wins and a near loss. We may just disagree on how good Wiscy and UCLA really were. Hell Oregon was a good win but they weren't really a good team this year. But we're getting off the point. Embarrassments like tOSU and Iowa can't help but affect recruiting. At this point recruits have to also be considering if the current staff will even be here in 2 to 3 years. It was a lot easier to fall than it's been to try to c...

      Jim Beam should be good. It's got a nice spicy note and isn't terribly sweet. I used it for a bourbon sauce on burgers and in marinade for pulled pork. It worked really well.

      I went with Maker's Mark.  They had a smallish bottle for about $19. I only need a cup.

       

      It smells awful. I think bourbon consumption is mostly based on a dare.

    4. ZRod

      Maker's Mark is pretty good. All whiskeys smell funky, but bourbon taste the best. I could never drink it neat but in an old fashion, Manhattan, or just some ice it's good stuff.

      This is a great move by bama as they bitch about their fans leaving early or not showing up (then later brag about their attendance.)

       

      The neutral site games make some sense but it won't compare to the money they make for a home game (local economy).  

       

      It is a decent name but not a huge threat an the return game in Madison will be a fun one for Bama necks...errrrr...fans.

      Wisconsin should have pushed for a November night game.  Bama most certainly would have told them to pound sand though.

    4. VectorVictor

      @darkhorse85we could hope for severe weather in Madison that postpones the game and forces 'Bama to sacrifice their November cupcake for a frosty trip north of the Mason-Dixon line.
