      I see those guys flying those things by my work all the time.

      espn has been doing something similar for several years now. But they aren't called drones. They're called bloggers.

  2. Nothing I hate more than a guy who won't even offer you a realistic trade. Parsimony is not an endearing trait in fantasy baseball deals.

      I thought Jamie Moyer for Mark Texiera was a good trade!

  3. Got some rumblers moving through the Lincoln/Omaha area. Hope everyone stays safe tonight, and the hail misses you.

      I wouldn't mind hail on my roof, but no such luck. Did find out I have a leak on my standpipe, though. Guess what I'll be doing tomorrow afternoon. =/

      I'm talking about for the average joe. Even if we did tweet something significant, what, 50 people might see it? Media and athletes/celebs are really the only people who have the ability to tweet something "significant"

  7. Jim Delany ripping the polls a new one in the B1G Conference call today. Calls them biased, corrupt and non-transparent.

    1. Foppa

      And he's probably right. Unfortunately...He and the heads are completely blowing it in how to proceed, at least from what I've heard so far.

      What a duplicitous ass he is!! He is one of the BCS architects. He was fine with those polls lining his pockets when things were going his way. He knows if things go to a true final 4 the SEC could have 2-3 teams a year in the best games with the best payoffs.

      You're not missing anything, MLB 51. If I could get all my "friends" to switch to Twitter I'd kill my FB account. I don't like it one bit.

  9. Today humidity is our friend in Lincoln. Making high-level clouds, but keeping the temps down. It's hot, but not terrible.

      I was about 99% certain that the stock would fall for quite awhile after the IPO...and I was right

      The real question is Knappy, What do you have planned for the next 14 years? I was thinking we could get a plane, take turns flying and following some fast moving jet for a while....

      That's crazy, knapp. Kerry Wood is coming in against the White Sox right now, btw. You might be watching anyway, but this might be our last time to ever see him pitch.

      And it take 31,709 years to count that high.

  13. The HuskerBoard Spring Consensus Top 25 rankings are finished. Check out the Crib for the results.

  15. Get your entry in to the Consensus Top 25. Deadline is this Wednesday.

  16. Why is soccer coach John Walker not releasing Morgan Marlborough from her scholarship so she can play right away in Santa Clara? That's dirty pool, coach. Be better than that.

  17. Today is the 15th anniversary of Bob Devaney's passing. RIP, Bob.
