They do have long lines and wait times. Which will be another majot obstacle Knap. I haven't looked much into ACA since it was signed, but we all knew the fatal flaw was the lack of control over rising premiuns. The only way tonfix that is regulations, like it or not. Until the price is equal for the same procedure in the same genral area we are going to have issues.

I hadn't checked your link.

It's nice to see other people recognizing this. My wife and I are trying hard to take responsibility for our own health and our children's health and to get out of this system of just taking a pill for everything.

That said, health care costs and insurance premiums are taking a huge toll on our financial outlook personally. It is very sobering.

Sorry, wasn't directing that at you per se, just a pet peeve of mine. When I get time to watch TV, I see al these newly named conditions and diseases that have come up with, then they say take this little pill to correct X? But then they list 1,000,000,000 potential reactions to taking the pill, including dying, which causes me to laugh at those who would be in no better shape than they were pror to seeing the ad.

The inclusion part was directed at today's society, where everyone has to be right, part of something, a winner or protected from the things that cause them to feel sad or dismay, or unsure.

Otherwise, everything "LIFE"

It will be one of those things that is used as an excuse if Riley doesn't live up to expectations.

Yea, one of them at least. I'll have a few others too.

Maybe it might get used as an excuse but I think most of us feel really good about Riley and the team.

now you will learn to function on no sleep

Congratulations!

Thanks ya'll! Sleep has definitely come at a premium.

Hukser. I felt bad! Haha! I was like oh crap!

The biggest hurdle to a real discussion about race is the fear of being honest with each other.

I guess maybe I've already learned and acheived. And I believe most people who haven't likely never will.

Well, there was a reason for having to create protected classes.

Frosty. His #ThanksTO bit was pretty cool. I love Frost, he was my favorite Husker growing up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwCJuM7eJ4Y

Take it to the Oregon board

Matty....I meant many room now if he happened to be let go. I'm sure we had room before.

It's TA by a mile, then everyone else to hopefully be serviceable.

BUT IS TA BETTER THAN TOMMY FRASEUR?

Teach, are you going with the "everything is better in Nebraska" angle?

Why don't the candidates man up and say f the debate, have a real sit down talk with their opponents. Maybe some mior moderation, but a truely open discussion.

Because they love the theater. It's an opportunity to get attention and "win".

ZRod- that would never work. Then they would have to actually say something. They're just looking for an opportunity for sound bites that will play well. Actual substance does not enter the equation. The candidates are almost as bad as the media members.....almost.

I think you guys really nailed it when you said that it's important to care about local and state elections.

Hell, even your Congress member. Take a look at their record. If they're not representing you the way you want, vote for someone else. It blows my mind that Congressional approval is so low and yet the same people continue to just get reelected.

Voting in local and state elections is really how government gets changed.

Yeah, that low turnout % is sad. I'll try to help things out by voting two or three times!

I thought the Journal Star was the sunshine pumper's journal.

Didn't PJ Smith say the team already trusts Armstrong more than they ever trusted Martinez?

BC wasn't saying that the Taylor Martinez era was getting stale because of Taylor Martinez. He was talking about the hype and BS that swirled around him for four years. A lot of which came from places like HuskerBoard.

For better or worse, Taylor was a HUGE talking point. The team got tired of hearing the same story over and over. And really, who didn't?

I agree. I was simply commenting on the dynamic of having only 2 of the 3. Everyone knows athletic ability has to be one of them, so...

Hmmm... 2nd DUI, failed drug test, cited for open container, broke another students arm. Not too bad for a few years

I think the motivation is of limited relevance; they're doing the public sector job and that's what matters. Whether the financial relief is a token bonus or an absolute necessity depends on one's situation.

My point is, you didn't get into the work to get loans forgiven, or at least I hope not. So why hinge so much hope on it now?

Why hope not? ...

Agreed Savage

I learned cursive in 3rd grade, then never once used it after that. By 5th grade I forgot most of it.

Speaking of cursive. When taking the Praxis test at UNK, we have to fill out a form saying we won't give up any of the test questions. It's like a 2 paragraph agreement we are required to write in cursive. Took me like 30 minutes.

It is not about production. If that were the case, then no one would be questioning the decision to play Newby over Wilbon or Ozigbo. It is about passing the eye test. When you watch the OL, do you see a consistent push off the ball, athletic bigs that can get into the flats to run block in the screen game, or clean OL play before and after the snap? These are realistic concerns. The OL is a contributing factor to the 2-3 record.

Isn't everything a contributing factor to our record? I think the OL is way down the list of problems.

Theirs is not to reason why. Theirs is but to do and die

Thanks_Tom RR with the excellent summary. Right on.

Student asked what it was like being old. I replied - No different than when I was young except what took 2 days to heal now takes a week

I played 8 holes at a work golf outing earlier this week. Darn rain.

Zip.

I'm not arguing the different vibe, just that this place isn't dying out because a group of people got banned. But yes it is different.

That could also be from the fact we don't know that we are going 9-4 this season for the first time since 2008.

Well there sure has been no shortage of new threads. I can't remember a time, in season or not, when so many new topics were being created. Not a lot of interest in most of them so I'm not necessarily saying it's a good thing.

Why the hell was the coaches son home from college on a friday night when he should be partying and slaying beave?

Probly not much correlation between a score on a football theory test and QBing an FBS team. Then again, it never hurts to have some smarts. :shrug:

Not a rumor ZRod

You pervs!

I'm not buying a shirt until I'm in the starting lineup as the longsnapper.

No. in my minds eye your all Diaco's to me. I don't want to live with the disappointment.

I remember when Beanman got his eyebrows waxed. He looked real purdy.

He gotta real purdy mouth, ain't he?

There was a happy ending, of course. Plus she insisted, so I didn't argue. I didn't realize it was so bad.

@ZRod Yeah, I realize that but it just isn't an option for them to get it wrong again.

@Coach Power'T   IF (and it is an outrageous "if") your post about winning out happens, I think I would be happy to keep Riley.  Even though his style isn't anything to get excited about, that accomplishment would show a lot of how he can pull a team together and save them from collapse.  I don't want to see it used as an excuse, but this is a pretty young team.  And if they finish 8-4 with a finish like your post describes, I'd be pretty excited for next year.

If the impossible halpens and they finish 8-4, Riley still gets replaced.  But, if he manages to stay another year, I promise you Nebraska plays a different style of offense in 2019.  So either way, next year this team will be different.

There is a larger point of BBall officiating in general. Refs have too much control, and can make teams play they way they think a game should be played, not just sticking to the rules

And if you get a ref draw that does not let a team play the way their conf plays, that team might as well be playing vs 6 players

And it should be the officials' job-and the good ones do this-to find that happy medium. This crew today is not capable of junior high girls basketball.

You guys, all we have to do is make a pants thread with the same slogans.

I'm not mad, guys. Bad day. Sorry for the gripiness. Coach, you've done nothing wrong. I'll try to prod the Big Wigs to get me an answer on the thread. It was good fun.

Knapp- apology is unaccepted.. you were so harsh and i cried and so we arent friends anymore.

Then take that route I sent you and flip it!
