Early playing time still happens at CU. CU traveled 72 and played 70 to Louisville.

My bold prediction.

ESPN FWIW, Dabo beat the other 3 last season. True, but both Dabo and Fisher only won one, and on a game ending drive led by an NFL quality qb. Ok? A W, or in this case, 3 Ws are Ws. Go ahead and point out that one was "a game ending drive led by an NFL quality qb," but don't leave out that he beat Ohio State 31-0. One of the few times Urban has ever been shut out.

What is your background in design?

Hey Roxy!

It's not that big of a deal. They give you the scissors and the doctor tells you exactly where to cut.

Whoop.

Glad you enjoyed our little place in the middle of nowhere. It's pretty special to most of us.

I wish I could say good game, but it was sloppy on both ends. Oh well.

Can't blame them, as many chances that we gave you guys in the first half to pull away and you didn't.

Keep doing it.

You guys suck.

You guys suck.

It's clear from this that you've not read many of the threads on HB. Not only is nobody saying this, there has actually been quite a bit of hand wringing and criticism over the past couple of weeks—especially since a couple of the teams we beat have themselves gone on to lose more games. Sure, we're not close to being "back" when you consider where we were 20 years ago. But I say let's enjoy the unblemished record while it lasts. And if the coaches and AP writers both want to put us in the top 10 for the time being, well, all the better! Where did anyone say this?? Just trying to keep you f'ers humble.

You're not back. You start thinking you're back too early and you'll be humbled.

If a person wants to wave the flag at a sporting event, more power to 'em. What I think is weird and potentially damaging is this belief that Sports = National Pride. Agree.

I guarantee there are some that complain about it, but they are in the minority and either feel stifled or socially pressured to fall in line. You don't think there are any atheists, agnostics, jews, muslims, buddhists, etc. on your football team? Or players that have been burned out on or abused by the church? There was a Jahova's witness on the team when I was there. He had no problem. The team isn't even out there when all of this goes down, anyway. Every organization on campus has the right to do the prayer, they always have a muslim & a jewish representative do a prayer each year (One organization does it each game). The intent is for the safety of players and fans, and everyone sees that, never heard anyone offended by it in my 31 years of going to games. Maybe there's just more tolerance for others than complaining about every f'ing thing. I was talking about nationalism/flag waving. How did this veer into prayer and the church? Landlord brought up religion. I don't really have any issue with the nationalism/flag waving. Everyone is entitled to do it their own way. My point was more about getting in everyone else's business - from a personal level on up.

Yes, what's your point? I think the point is that we, as a country, are unnecessarily combining national pride with sports. The two have nothing to do with each other. America would be better served if we just let sports be sports and kept the flag-waving ultranationalism out of it. I think, like most things in our country, this is a local culture thing. No one complains about it here, so what's the big deal? Sure it won't fly in California, but those that aren't here shouldn't worry about it.
