Good stuff @TonyStalloni

Unless the NCAA and college football as a whole are willing to commit to developing a more equitable system, then I tend to agree. I don't necessarily think Nebraska will compete for a title. At least not with any measure of consistency.

I readily acknowledge that CFB is cyclical, but the disparity between programs is not getting any better and it's at perhaps its worst point in history. Nebraska had half the formula figured out in 2009 to compete for a national championship. Even an average to above average offense could've meant a national title berth. It didn't happen, and unless we're able to catch lightning in a bottle again, I don't see it happening.

I wouldn't say "never".  That's an awfully long time.

But, what we need to be working towards is being that 9-3 or 10-2 team regularly.  If we can get to that point, it's possible to every once in a while have that special team that gets into the playoffs.  If we can do that, anything can happen.

I firmly believe there is no reason why we can't be that 9-3 or 10-2 team consistently.  

It's now on Netflix.  Maybe temporarily stoping production of the disc's, etc was part of the agreement??

It's one of my favorites for sure!

The Dems probably dont like them so their cancelling and removing them.

Curious what rout the Wulvarines would go for a new coach. They haven't had much luck with "Michigan" guys but they didn't with Rich Rod either. 

I honestly don't know that they have the cache to fire him there, even as not-good as he's been. 

doubt he'll be terminated. cash flows are significantly down as a result of the conference's decision to play in empty seats with fewer games. I think most power 5 head coaches are safe this year.

Want to know the funny thing?  I used to hear about how "kids these days never get out of the house and play games like basketball at the park.....all they do is sit at home and play video games."  Ummm.....I guess that isn't necessarily true.

@JJ Husker agreed. That spring breaker story making the rounds the last day or two was a real trigger moment for me.

There was also full on cookout at my neighborhood park with like 15-20 people a few days ago, and there were families on the playground equipment 3-4 days ago as well. City came and put signs up yesterday and even some fencing around the playground.

@BigRedBuster I was talking about this exact situation to someone yesterday. In Dallas, the parks and trails have become way too crowded for distancing purposes. It's like now that people are forced to stay home, they want to get outside. I don't get it at all; when they're not forced to stay home they're more than happy to be inside and on their phones, watch tv, play videogames, etc. Some psychological warfare going on.

We are not "officially" done for the year yet but we are getting close.

Haven't come upon a Ren & Stimpy reference for a long time.

@The Dude My favorite show as a kid.

Can you not order takeout in your area? 

Just pull a Tom Holland and buy a couple chickens:

I have 10 chickens, make that 9, the doberman got 1 this morning.  I have been giving eggs to the neighbors because we have so many currently.  The neighbor behind us has like 40 and gives us eggs to give away as well.  I have told him we are good and so are the other neighbors.

I stopped at the store earlier, TP was still empty (or emptied yet again), meat and frozen veggies were sparse but not empty. Fresh produce looked normal, although it was being stocked at the time I was there.

The Bay Area has been ravaged. The only thing you can easily find is fruits and vegetables. Everything else is bare.

fruits and veggies wouldn't be all bad.   can do quite well with just those for awhile.

I'm really surprised Bienemy didn't take it.

Bienemy is poised to get a NFL head coaching job soon, no need to go to CU.

Yeah taking the CU job would've been a terrible move for Bienemy both monetarily and from a career perspective.

Stealing signs is not illegal and is part of game. Using technology to do so is very much against the MLB use of technology rule. 

Also, it's another one of those unwritten rules.

Unwritten rules have an unwritten punishment. That’s why I love baseball
