    What bothers me about this is that these guys are supporting a belief thats a lie.

     

    Kapernick claims the usa oppresses blacks here int he modern ear, never seen it my self but ok. They claim the police shootings are the primary evidence of this, yes there have been some bad ones that are head scratchers but we have seen these incidents with whites too, but the biggest ones that have been protested all the officers involved were cleared. And we ended up finding out the guys that got shot were gang memebers, armed, assaulted or resisted the officer ect.

     

    This whole protest isn't benifiting or changing anything but is promoting a lie. And worse the people that are psuhing this don't seem to catch on that the majority of americans either don't care or are angered by it.

    Would you want to be treated the same as the average black person in this country?

     

    ...isn't this the entire point of the movement. To bring discussion to the majority of Americans - to shine the light on dark places within our justice system than many are willing to overlook. Maybe there's not injustice everytime ..but shouldn't one injustice be enough?

    MRI was first sincere, second well spoken, third clear in his thoughts, four used logic, and finally doing it in a Nonviolent and noncombative manner.

     

    The fact that we are talking about how his protest makes US feel instead of discussing much of the issue at hand is much of the problem of culture in america. A lean towards egocentric and turn from empathy.

     

    Not aimed at anyone's comments in particular- just food for thought.

    It remains to be seen what Nebraska's philosophy will be this fall. Ozigbo, a sophomore, teams with senior Terrell Newby and sophomore Mikale Wilbon to give the Huskers a promising set of running backs when paired with Armstrong's running ability. The entire receiving corps returns, including standout wideout Jordan Westerkamp, a stellar tight end in Cethan Carter and the explosive De'Mornay Pierson-El, a punt return ace who missed most of last season because of injury issues. Armstrong has his flaws, but he will be a four-year starter with another offseason of work under Riley under his belt. The big question is the line, which loses three starters after imposing its will on UCLA the last time we saw them.

    The progress of the line will likely determine just how far Nebraska goes, because it needs to be able to run the ball to take some pressure off Armstrong, and it needs to put him in favorable situations to help limit his mistakes as a passer. Despite being in the weaker Big Ten West Division, Nebraska has a tricky schedule, but it has some time to develop in the trenches because most of the tougher defenses come late in the season -- road trips to Wisconsin, Ohio State and Iowa in the last five games -- beyond a trip to Northwestern on Sept. 24.
    The game that will be circled early in the season is in nonconference play, when Nebraska hosts Oregon on Sept. 17 in a test for two defenses that ranked among the nation's worst against the pass last season. Another win over a Pac-12 opponent would be huge for Riley, but how this season is perceived will be dependent upon how Nebraska competes in a winnable Big Ten West. It hurts that the games against divisional foes Wisconsin, Ohio State and Iowa are on the road, but if Nebraska can take care of business at home, it can be in the thick of the division title race.
    Riley entered a strange position when he was unexpectedly brought in as Pelini's replacement. Most coach firings happen when a program is at or recently hit rock bottom. Nebraska annually performed below its colossal expectations, but it was far from bottom. Given that Riley has never had a season with fewer than four losses in two decades as a head coach at Oregon State and with the San Diego Chargers, it's reasonable to wonder what Nebraska is actually expecting and whether he's the coach who can make Nebraska competitive on the national level again. Having a personality that's far less abrasive than Pelini helps, but being lauded for being nice will only take Riley so far at a program hungry to taste some sort of national success again.

    If we could have a whole season of carter doing that, and then slipping out for some 5-8 yard passes I would be a very happy Husker fan

  3. All very true what's been said. He looked like an 18 year old in front of 73k. However there was one out route to the fat sideline that he threw the best possible ball you could thrrow in for an offense only catch that had me a little awestruck. Raw but the talent is there.

  4. One of the biggest things I've heard against the B1G is quality of football. With tosu, mich st, harbaugh at mich, pen state seemingly turning the corner and decent play coming out of Minnesota (I know I'll get burned for that but it's true) I feel like the b1g over the next 3-7 years will become as relevant as any other conference. Why leave when the fightings getting good. Because baylor and tcu are playing well? We are in a conference with national champs. I'd rather be picking my fight with them than any b12 team.

  5. In order to lift well and most of all apply power, you need good flexibility. And not touch your toes flexibility...extensor, hip flexor, spinal flexibility. Put that in place now, maintain it and it's amazing how much more powerful and athletic you can become. Good flexibility lead to strong core leads to good posture = solid technique. Solid technique backed with some power lifting this summer = pipeline
