      Couldn’t care less about what they are wearing.  The game itself is beyond atrocious.

      Fugly is the nicest adjective for it.

      Quite possibly the Tim Miles Swan Song.

  2. Anyone else ever experienced the endless password reset loop for Twitter?  What did you do to remedy?

      Clear your cookies, or try a private mode window, or try another device?

      Turns out, I just had to wait until ... ? Time passed?  A Fix was made?  I don’t know, It works now.  and, @Toe, I had actually tried all of that to no avail yesterday.

  3. can anyone point me to the post comparing Crouch's stats to Martinez as freshmen? TIA

      Yessss - thank you - my memory failed me on which thread it was on.

    3. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      well, heck... not the one I was thinking of, but that's ok, tyvm anyway - I can compile what I'm looking for, just wanted easy access to it. (lazy)

      Thanks you guys!  It's been a great day! My favorite was having my grandson, who is almost 4, sing Happy Birthday to me via Skype!  Thanks again!

  5. Your 2018 Wing Bowl (repeat) champion:  Nebraska girl, Molly Schuyler.  (Wing Bowl is a yearly wing eating competition in Philly)

      Paid her a little tribute on SNL’s weekend update. She must have bowels of steel. 

  6. My Title IV idea to balance out M/W for FB:  Start a women's hockey team at NU.  Why not?

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      I like it but then we would want to add men's hockey so would still need to balance the numbers. Really would like to see UNL add some hockey. Its my favorite sport to watch besides Husker football.

    2. C N Red

      C N Red

      Are you kidding me? Another Title to make things legal? Little overkill isnt it. ;)

    3. krc1995

      krc1995

      what about a roller derby team?

  7. Watching old kick off classic games.  Those were the days.

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Now you’re making me want to hook up a VCR and drag out all my old VHS tapes of the 90’s games.

    2. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      Just hit up youtube - or the links in the videos section. :)

      Moiraine

      I miss those. + any Thursday games as a kid were exciting for some reason.

  8. Up for a little light reading?  Here's Mario's thesis on the biomechanics of QB's - http://scholarworks.sjsu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1268&context=etd_theses

      He is definitely one of a kind.  Hope he can keep his wizardry streak going here.

      NUance

      273 pages.  Wow!  And look at the top two citations at page 41:  "T. Osborne".  :thumbs

  9. Something is wrong with the universe.  My workday wasn't horrifying for once.

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      So it's your fault? :angry:

      My day was terrible.

      :D

    2. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      Did you have another terrible day, @Comfortably Numb?  I had another day that wasn't awful.  I am just waiting for the other shoe to drop since I am not used to one unsuckful day, let alone two in a row.

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      Seems I've been working my @ss off for over a month now. No not at "work" but at home getting stuff ready for this grad party tomorrow. Things could've gone much better....

  10. Looks like fun, tho I wish they wouldn't slap MW around like that.

      MW = My lazy way of typing Mike Williams

  11. Feels great to have anticipation for a game again.  Last few years it's kind of felt like a chore to keep my obligation as a fan.

    1. JJ Husker
    2. HuskerInLostWages

      HuskerInLostWages

      I concur, so dilly dilly.  Tiwards the end of last season I didnt even set my alarm clock for the early games and if I overslept and missed the start of the game it was like oh well.  This year im on here an hour bwfore the game with a countdown going.

    3. krc1995
  12. Are the recently departed players completely dropping out of school or just quitting the team but still enrolled?

    1. ZRod

      ZRod

      I believe they have to remain enrolled to maintain eligibility.

    2. Scarlet Overkill
    3. ZRod

      ZRod

      Actually I retract my previous statement. I don't think they have to be enrolled unless there is a conference rule that says they ha e to. Nothing I read says they have to be in school after they want to transfer, just that the 5 year clock is always ticking.

  13. Someone just shared this countdown clock with me.  https://countingdownto.com/?c=2326116

    1. HuskerInLostWages

      HuskerInLostWages

      That depressed me 278 days to wait.

    2. TonyStalloni

      TonyStalloni

      It always seems like the time from January till football practice starts in August drags on forever but the 3 months of the Husker football season flies by so quickly.  

    3. Moiraine

      Moiraine

      According to that clock, we play our first game at midnight!

  14. Toying with the idea of just wrapping the keyboard/mouse box for the new computer we just got my MIL, and let her think that's all she got (for awhile).  Is that too mean to do to an 88 year old?

    1. 4skers89

      4skers89

      She might try to plug them into a wall outlet.  Should have gotten her a laptop.

    2. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      It might be meaner to actually give a functional computer to an 88 year old.

    3. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      Haha @JJ Husker - she's had one for several years but lately laments about how she wants a new one.  Best to make her happy for her remaining years.

  15. Ok, how does autocorrect for the word, “awesome” translate to Barry?!

    1. Enhance

      Enhance

      One of the more egregious ones I continue to come across isn't really an auto correct, but, my phone will constantly keep and red underline 'Mebraska' if I spell it incorrectly. Like... I know you know it's wrong, iPhone. You even give me 'Nebraska' as a suggestion.

    2. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      Thing is, I didn’t even misspell the word, Barry in the first place.  LOL - i left “Barry” in after it changed it automatically.  Why, why, why?

    3. Thanks_Tom RR

      Thanks_Tom RR

      Barry? As in Mo Barry because he is pretty awesome. Maybe your device just assumes they are synonyms. :)

  16. Out of sheer boredom, I think I’ll go and rate some posts from 2010 or so.

      I am going to hit some up from the earliest date I can find!

  17. Is anyone here attending a Friday Night Lights session today, or next Friday?

    1. Red Five

      Red Five

      I've watched the all 5 seasons of Friday Night Lights (as well as the movie multiple times).  Does that count?

      I have a friend whose son participated in this past Friday's....

  18. I love 4th of July, I love fireworks. But, my GOD, 4 straight nights is ENOUGH!

    1. Savage Husker

      Savage Husker

      This year seems like the least I’ve heard them, aside of the Fourth, in Omaha. 

    2. The Dude

      The Dude

      I've often wondered how much freedom is too much freedom.  Turns out it's 5 straight nights.

    3. Cdog923

      Cdog923

      Yep; we had to call the number last night; some d***less wonders behind us were lighting off mortars at midnight. 

  19. How can there be any fireworks left after 4 days?  Someone is at it again.  Day 5.

  20. How do I ignore avatars? I used to, now they're back.

    1. zoogs

      zoogs

      Was it possible in the last version of the board? I actually did not know that you could disable viewing avatars. I looked around and have not found anything. You can disable signatures on a per-person basis now. They should have the same feature for avatars, but it looks like they don't.

    2. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      yep, it was in the last version... guess it has been removed. oh well.

  21. Run the ball guy has to be loving the Armed Forces Bowl

    1. TonyStalloni

      TonyStalloni

      They are fun to watch.

    2. ladyhawke

      ladyhawke

      I love watching them play. They just overpower their opponent!

  22. Senior Bowl anyone? 

    1. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      Looking to see the Griffin kid play, as well as the WR from ISU (Lazard).  And, hope TLee at least doesnt embarrass himself too badly.

      meh...if you are good enough you'll get followers. #groveling :lol:

  24. The last step of erasing the last 3 years from my memory:  accepted a job offer to return to the same job (sorta) I left 3 years ago to work for the company from hell.

    1. Michiganball

      Michiganball

      I thought it would have had something to do with a lot of 180 proof booze and a friend who watched some medical shows. To each he's own Dilly.

    2. Scarlet Overkill

      Scarlet Overkill

      Well, another year of Riley and another year of this joke of a job, and i would have!

  25. I'm convinced RTB is a product of a 3 way with Riley, Diaco, and a televangelist.

      Never understood his year 0 campaign.  He took over a program with a lot of momentum that was coming off a bowl victory over wash st. They had talent and were competing in the West.
