  1. It's a #TriggeredTuesday: I hate when people in my building get off on the second floor, instead of the first, to go outside through the rear entrance. Most of them do it to smoke. If you get off on the second floor, you have to walk down 10 steps. If you get off on the first floor, you have to walk up 10 steps. Stop being an inconvenience and just get off on the first floor with the rest of us, jerks.

      Triggered to the point of having to put the first person on my ignore list.

      @Enhance you should anonymously post some fictitious health article in the elevator, about how walking up stairs before smoking and down afterwards negates the bad effects of smoking. That might help get them to quit stopping on the 2nd floor.:lol:

  2. YouTube seems to be doing a lot more back-to-back ads in the last few weeks.

      I noticed that too.

      Yeah I've noticed that as well.  Time to go with a different free streaming music service for me.  

  3. I don't blame Vettel for being pissed about the 5 second penalty in this weekend's Canadian Grand Prix that cost him the win, and there probably wasn't anything he could do to avoid the situation once it happened, but I feel like people are glossing over the fact that he made a mistake. He wouldn't have been in a position to get penalized if he hadn't lost control of his car. It doesn't really matter if it was the tires or something else - that's racing. People get penalized in sports all the time for stuff they didn't intend to do, but if you do make a mistake, that's kind of on you, Seb.

      Yeah, but mistakes are a part of racing, and at a certain point you have to let the race have a natural progression without too much outside influence.

       

      I see both sides of it. If you are an Indy or NASCAR fan the penalty looks dumb and the incident is just a normal part of racing. If you're an F1 guy, the penalty is technically by the book but a little harsh for a no harm no foul incident. He pinched Hamilton, but it wasn't like he was totally out of control. You should still be able to defend your position safely.

      I couldn't even watch the race because our local ABC station showed the stupid White Sox game.

      @jsneb83 next time that happens, try the ESPN app. Happens all the time in the DFW area when F1 is on the ABC affiliate and they choose to show something else instead because of...reasons. 

       

      As for Vettel, I do have a hard time sympathizing with him when he was on the right end of these decisions a couple of times during his run a few years ago. Now that the shoe is on the other foot, you're going to storm around like a petulant child and switch the place markers in front of the cars around?

      This was all because of Vettel's mistake, and I really have a problem with him returning to the racing line when he completely went off the course. He even admitted he saw Hamilton in his mirror on the broadcast, and that admission has to factor in to whether or not one views this as an 'out of control'/racing incident or Vettel trying to get away with something there. 

  4. Air Force once again killing it with the alternate uniforms:

      The service academies consistently crush it when it comes to alternate uniforms.  These are sweet.

      Damn...too bad the Washington Football Team didn't run with this idea as their replacement. They look sharp.

  5. I find it interesting that in the last 8 quarters against Missouri, they have completely imploded in two of them. And in the other 6 quarters, they very well could have won.

      In two quarters: 51-0 NU. In the other 6 quarters: 29-7 Mizzou.

      = 2 Nebraska wins

  6. San Diego State is a scary football team. Not only do they have Missouri beat early in the season save a miraculous touchdown, but they almost beat one of the most complete teams in the nation in TCU.

      Blackhawks drop an OT game to the Canucks. Chicago sports: Even Steven.

      Very happy about the Bullies. Not so happy about the Hawks, even though they did come back from 0-3 and forced OT in Game 7.

  8. Must add to The Avengers love. Absolutely amazed by it, and I would probably pay to see it a couple of more times. Truly excellent.

      glad i watched 'regular show' and 'the voice' instead. i could not watch because i did not want to see cruz beat me. that did not happen either. good night for me.

      You deserve a medal or something if you stuck it all the way through.

  10. So is the new 49ers stadium also going to switch to a ball park, or is this their own? Nothing against the 49ers - love the new big screen, but stadium is kind of meh.

    1. Enhance

      The new stadium, that is.

    2. NUpolo8

      NUpolo8

      Uh no. The sf Giants (who suck elephant c$%k by the way) have their own park. Levi's Stadium is solely Niners.

  11. Cam Newton did his best Lebron James impression with that flop.

  12. Hopefully Lamar Jackson isn't as inconsistent as some of the editing in his announcement video.

      Ha ha! I thought it was pretty good!

    2. JJ Husker

      I liked the video but I really wish these announcement videos just weren't a thing. Guess I like the approach of speak softly but carry a big stick.

  13. Has anyone else tried Hopcat in Lincoln yet? Went for the first time Saturday. Incredible beers and selection, but our service was terrible for it not being very busy. 10-15 minute waits for drinks... yikes.

    1. Atbone95

      Atbone95

      I've been and the drinks never took more than a minute or two haha, similarly busy I'm sure. Probably just one bad apple rather than indicative of Hopcat.

    2. Enhance

      A few of my coworkers/friends have gone and said their service was poor, too. But, others have told me if they sit at the bar then it's not that bad. We sat at a table cause we were a group of four.

  14. ... and I can not lie.

      Can not lie, is that the same as cannot lie?

  15. RIP to the PottCo sheriff's deputy killed today. Just horrible.

      Hopefully the other deputy pulls through okay. Crappy day :( I feel horrible for his family.

      RIP Officer Burbridge.

       

      Too bad they captured the suspect alive and unharmed. Should have shot him in the gut at least.

  16. Wish I could be in Monaco today.

      Get a big card board box. Write "Monaco" on it. Sit inside the box for the rest of the day.

  17. It's a rare occasion when I get a couple uninterrupted hours to play video games. And now, I'm waiting on a 16.6 GB update...

    1. Red Five

      Red Five

      I feel ya.  As I have gotten older, and especially now with kids, gaming time is very rare.  Its either play video games or sleep.  I choose sleep...

      Is the update done yet?  You were using a dialup connection to do the update, right?

  18. The rumor mill is buzzing that Ozigbo has locked up the 3rd back spot in NO.

    1. suh_fan93

      suh_fan93

      I just watched their last game and he was getting extra yards after contact and making guys flat out miss and thought to myself that guy definitely deserves to be on an NFL roster.  He looked really good with what he had to work and with his opportunities when given the ball imo.

    2. ColoradoHusk

      ColoradoHusk

      I am not sure how much special teams he played at Nebraska, but it helps a guy like him if he can be on coverage teams.  The last few guys on the roster have to be able to contribute on special teams.

  19. Anybody have running shoe company suggestions in Omaha? Now that we won't be going to Lincoln this fall, I'm not sure if we'll be heading up there and stopping by The Lincoln Running Company which is where I used to get new shoes.

  20. I am addicted to Wendy's spicy chicken nuggets. Seriously. Five chicken nuggets for $.99? Sign me up.

    1. sd'sker

      sd'sker

      sign you up to what? you do not have to sign anything to order chicken nuggets.

  21. I've heard that some of the staff and players have come down with an illness, specifically Barney Cotton and Chase Rome. Cold and flu like symptoms.

      Quick! Get them some EmergenC!!

  22. I shall be 21 in exactly one and a half days. This should be interesting, and just in time for the Big 12 title game no less!

      Happy early birthday. The world will soon find out if you're a "happy drunk" or an "angry drunk". :)

  23. I love watching Missouri lose,. and it made it even sweeter seeing them lose to a depleted Iowa team.

      i am debating removing your from the trifecta now...... I am so hurt i might even take you off my frinds list (hmmph)

  24. If you guys get a chance, go listen to Segment (10 I think) of the Schick and Nick Show. It's a pretty good Harrison Beck interview.

    1. UGAHusker

      Did they interview his mother?

  25. It feels good to finally get my hands on east stadium student tickets. It's been a long three years waiting for this.

    1. carlfense

      carlfense

      I had East Stadium tickets for 6 years. They are better . . . but it stinks when you have friends that get South tickets and you either have to sneak them over or sit in different groups.

       

      Still worth it.
