  1. Does anyone understand why The Irishman isn't getting a wide release, but only relegated to small theaters?

      Just a guess, but sometimes they do that to have it out at a certain point/time so that it can be considered for the Oscars.

      Yup. It's a Netflix movie, but it needs to be in some theaters to get consideration by the academy.

      There's a podcast on Fresh Air with the stepson of Chuckie O'Brien that's worth listening to.  I had no idea the story or the relatives involved.  https://www.npr.org/2019/10/01/766010613/in-hoffa-s-shadow-uncovers-an-author-s-family-ties-to-a-mafia-mystery

       

      And I think because it was produced by Netflix there is a small theatre release now, then it goes live on streaming at the end of Nov.

       

  2. At least we aren't Tennessee. That program is in an absolute freefall. I doubt Pruitt will be coaching much longer. 

  3. Tennessee...what a dumpster fire

      Tennessee needs some of that smooth whiskey.

  4. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/27754826/tennessee-lb-jeremy-banks-apologizes-conduct-arrest "Tennessee linebacker Jeremy Banks has issued an apology through the school after video was released showing him cursing and saying that "where I'm from, we shoot at cops" during his arrest last month following a traffic stop. ...Banks was arrested Sept. 15 after a records check during a traffic stop just before 4 a.m. revealed he had an active warrant for failure to appear on an earlier charge of driving with a suspended license. In video footage of the arrest released Tuesday, Banks at one point says, "where I'm from, we shoot at cops." At another point, Banks says he should have run and tested "you all's speed." "
  5. Another primetime blowout...what an absolute embarrassment...The gap in talent is so wide, it's laughable.

      I mean, you didn't understand that going in?

  6. Do you have to be a redneck to find Larry the Cable Guy funny? I don't get him at all. Wearing the overalls and talking like he just fell off a turnip truck. To a lot of Americans, Larry is exactly who they picture when you say the word Nebraska. I really wish we could get away from that stereotype.
  7. I just hope it doesn't turn out like past GameDays.
  8. My goodness, Tennessee is awful. just 3 points scored

  9. Illinois game on BTN

      Darn, really enjoyed FOX Business Channel....

  10. tunnel walk sucks...Why did they ever get rid of the animation?
  11. Iowa State - Iowa is getting Game Day? Why?
  12. I think those are called in-game adjustments.
  13. Antonio? Antonio who? :dunno :D

  14. They're still dragging out old man McCartney to drum up support? Jesus, they really must be desperate!
  15. Who will be covering Shenault? He's a real threat. The guy can do it all. He will definitely be a first round draft pick.
  16. offense looked awful...o-line got dominated...hopefully next week is better

  17. Only 1 day left...so close

  18. "Our Boys" on HBO is a must see. It is based on kidnappings that occurred in 2014 between Israel and Palestine. The acting is amazing. I didn't realize Israelis and Palestinians literally live side by side. The tension is overwhelming.
  19. watching games from the 95 season...I need Husker football...the wait :wacko:

      I'm watching old games, too. Just finished 1996 NU at KSU. Shortly after the ASU debacle, and a young Scott Frost learning to guide the machine.

       

      Can't wait. It's only two weeks to gameday!

  20. I prefer Lawrence Phillips without the violent temper.
