      I do think he's close to "retiring" after today's announcement.

      There isn't an elevator between him and that presser is there?

      I went to a different website.  Expect a new weight watchers to open in Omaha.

      El Diaco do you ever get a chance to have fresh Garret's popcorn? Wow! That's some of the best popcorn I've ever had. But you have to get it fresh. I brought some back to Omaha from Chicago and it was awful-but fresh is the best! (Sorry to change the subject-I really enjoy visiting Chicago!).

      Garrett's is incredible, too! My fiancée and I try to get to one every time we're in Chicago.

  4. Has anybody ever shipped anything to Nebraska from Ikea? I think the closest one is in Kansas and items get shipped by a third party. Just curious if you had a positive experience.

      Shipped it to Vegas(as everything at the one in Vegas is out of stock) and it came via DHL and took like 6 weeks.  I would consider DHL a 3rd party, but it came in 1 piece.

  5. House party at @knapplc's if we reach the $500 donation threshold.

      There's a pretty good fast food chinese place there though (or there was about four years ago).

      Will definitely do so asap

  7. If you could eliminate any penalty in football, what would you choose and why?

    I'd choose false starts (and the defensive counterpart offsides). You could still blow the play dead, but don't waste time explaining the call or allowing the teams to re-huddle and call in new plays. Just force them to line up and get after it.

      I 100% advocate eliminating the backwards slide rule. In lieu of that not happening though then yes I think you just spot the ball wherever the qb initiated the slide since that’s where it gets spotted currently. 

    4. GSG

      Get rid of spot foul for PI. Sick of watching "game-winning" drives where 80% of the yardage is off two PI calls. Just make it 15 yards. No reason a defense should get penalized 30-40 yards because the offense threw up some garbage pass 

  8. Just your annual reminder that Die Hard is not, and will never be, a Christmas movie.

  10. Papuchis as NC's DC reminds me a lot of his years at Nebraska. They'll get Louisville into 3rd and long and then get ripped on a RB crossing route.

  11. So many emotions as a Vikings fan right now. Extreme joy. Shock. Awe. What an incredible play and ending.

  15. This Darrell Brooks trial has been crazy. I'm generally in favor of cameras in court rooms, but this is one of the few times I've felt it was a bad idea.

  16. This is not good and very sad...

    I hate to speculate, but I'm fairly certain Stothert's husband (a very successful trauma doc) is in his early 70's. Scanner traffic claimed an apparent suicide.

      Some sources are now claiming it is her husband.

  17. Tough road for Andy Hoffman continues according to his latest update. Keeping the good thoughts and hopes flowing. 

     

  18. Vala's Pumpkin Patch is quickly turning into the Disney of the Midwest.

    Every year since 2016, my work has offered discounted tickets. They used to be $10 each. I just got an email today about the tickets. They're now discounted to $17.99/ticket for a weekday (full price is $19.99) and $34.99/ticket for the weekend (full price is $39.99).

    So, for the amount of tickets I was going to buy, I can either save $18 for the weekday or $45 for the weekend. Obviously that's better than full price, but not by much when you consider how much things on the inside cost now, too. Just wild what that place has turned in to. I'm all for capitalism but... geesh.

      If you were in HS it is probably a fun place to go since there is little supervision and you could totally sneak in vapes and booze.

       

      If you are a mom it is probably a cool place to go just so you can really push the limits of your husband's patience, really send him near that breaking point and then top if all off with getting him and and having super tired cranky kids and letting him know that you are going to bed early since you are worn out.  Maybe also letting him know that saying "thank you" to the girl that gave you your change after buying a 14 dollar funnel cake seemed a bit "too flirty"

      @Red Fivethats actually the perfect description haha. 
       

      I will say that It is regarded as one of the best in the country and there truly is a lot of stuff to do. They have their own train ride, haunted houses, tons of attractions and shows, rentable camp sites/fire pits, etc. It also holds a lot of sentimental value to me because I started going in the early 90s as a kid, but it also used to cost only a couple bucks to get in. Now they just keep expanding every year and finding new reasons to slap another $5 onto admission.

      That's about 25% more than Fritzler's Corn Maze here. https://www.fritzlerfarmpark.com/

      But Fritzler's has GOATS, acrobatic goats :koolaid2: and pumpkin cannons.

       

  19. Was there a food you hated while growing up, only to realize later you hated it because it was made poorly?

     

    I (think) I have a pretty big one: steak. I really did not like actual steaks growing up... ribeyes, T-bones, the like. But it was because I didn't know anything about steaks and my parents would often cook them medium to well done and served with A1. It wasn't until I got older and had well-cooked steaks that I realized I liked them a lot.

      @Danny Bateman I had a somewhat similar experience. My earliest memories of asparagus were out of a can. I didn't "hate" it, but I definitely didn't like it. I remember my dad made oven baked asparagus one time when I was about 10 and I thought "where the hell as this been?"

      Plus the fun thing with asparagus is making your pee smell funny for the next few hours.

      Asparagus rolls.  Cream cheese on lunch ham, then wrap the asparagus.  Bake it.

      I would really need to think to figure out a rap song I like.

  22. Whether it's misguided or not, I appreciated that Green/Bounds approached the program tradition head on and didn't shy away from it. I appreciated their candor. We don't see that often in athletics anymore.
