  1. If sources are wrong & Perella isn't given absolute control over the football team for the next two games, I'm renouncing my Huskerdom & turning over a new leaf.

    A maple leaf.

    Time to trade American football for the CFL. Go Roughriders! Long live the green & white!

  2. C'mon y'all. Frost's offense is just so fun to watch. Smooth as silk. It'd look way better in scarlet and cream, though...

      It would be nice to get back to an offense where you can score from anywhere, at any time. I think that's what people really miss about the option. 

  3. Put a small sum on TCU/KU ... Good lord KU football is a dumpster fire y'all.

  4. Davison just unloading on the state of the program on the radio. He's quite clearly pissed.

      I wish i could like send him a message or something, ive never heard someone so passionate and just lay it on the line.  It needed to happen.

      I can't really say I blame him. 

      How ticked off would you be as someone who played for one of the all time great NU teams to have to swallow this down & call it sunshine?

      I think a lot of the NU greats try to put a good face on and not embarrass the current staff or the program when things start to go south. Maybe more brutal honesty like Matt was putting out there would actually lead to something better.

      @ZRod He was just calling the game on the radio. If you ever want to listen in you can find it on the Husker website or TuneIn has the Husker IMG network as well. Sometimes I like to mute the TV guys & sync up the stream to get the hometown call.

  5. I don't want to be tinfoil guy, but do you think refs sometimes call games depending on who they think is supposed to win?

  6. I'm on a stakeout to find the jackass who keeps stealing stuff from my car. Will provide rolling updates on all the action.

      I would paintball him.  And record it so we can watch.

  7. Houston walking in with that fumble completed my 7 team parlay. Almost four digit payout... No joke!

      Did you hedge on the KC-Washington game at all?  If I were one game away from hitting a 7-game parlay, I would have done some hedging.

    3. Danny Bateman

      Danny Bateman

      @ColoradoHusk Nope. This was my first time on this book. Not familiar with how to hedge exactly. Decided to just let my $10 bet roll... 

    4. ColoradoHusk

      ColoradoHusk

      Hedging is really easy, it's just betting the opposite side from your parlay.  I understand you were only going to lose $10, but if you were going to win over $1,000 or nothing from one game, I would have put a few hundred dollars on the Skins to ensure myself winning some cash.

  8. RIP Tom Petty

    Today sucks.

      Said he's stepping down from touring because he has a granddaughter that he wants to spend time with and life is short.  Sad for the little one.  

    3. ColoradoHusk

      Sounds like he was in pretty bad shape during the last concert tour. He had to be carted around the concert arenas and helped onto the stage for each performance. He was able to do the concerts, but it must have taken a lot out of him to do so. He probably was on some pain killers during this time, as well.

      I had a friend at his very last concert last week.  Said the show was awesome.  But seeing Tom Petty at the Holleywood bowl would make everything awesome.  Hard to believe that show was only like a week ago.  He went downhill fast.    

  9. Arizona's OL is NOT going to enjoy watching the film from this game...

  10. Flashbacks of Sam Keller. Woof.

  11. We're the top headline on ESPN.com you guise!

  12. Worse broadcaster: Chris Collinsworth or Joe Buck. Who ya got?

      Dislike CC and his excessively long neck a lot.  Buck is ok depending on who he's with in the booth.  He's good w/Aikman.

    3. wiuhusker

      @NM11046 I guess I didn't even think of Buck in the NFL. First thing I thought of with him was the MLB. I've got quite a few friends who are Cubs fans and according to them Buck was a huge homer last year for the Dodgers in the NLCS. I've always enjoyed listening to Buck do MLB games though.

      @NM11046 can't stand Buck with Aikman. Maybe it's because I'm an Eagles fan, but they are SUCH homers for the Cowboys (naturally). 

  13. Jerry Kill had another seizure after being knocked over. He was released from the hospital, which is good, but man, what a bummer for that guy. He's got the heart of a lion to keep doing what he loves. Good for him.

  14. Since Bryant went out this looks like classic Callahan offense.

      His O Usually put points on the board at least.

       

      Yes, I know we're down 14 with 6 min left.

  17. ICE Left 50 Immigrant Women And Kids Stranded At A CLOSED Bus Station Before Hurricane Harvey Struck

     

    Only going after the bad hombres, right? Actually... nope. These are asylum seekers from Central America, not undocumented immagrants. This is amoral and we can't turn a blind eye to it. ICE didn't give a crap about these people.

      Ever since I was read about a woman with a brain tumor they pulled out a hospital shortly before her operation there was some scary facist vibe about them.

  18. Not letting trans people into the military is discriminatory and hurts the military.

      I agree Dude...I also think that the barries/standards should be 100% exactly the same for everyone.  

    3. Danny Bateman

      Danny Bateman

      Yeah, you'll get no argument from me.

      There was a time when we freaked out about ladies in the military, too. But if they can meet all the same requirements as a man, why shouldn't they be allowed to do the same job?

      Republicans want everyone to be treated the same and to get away from identity politics, right? So why do this? This is not that.

    4. teachercd

      teachercd

      Totally agree...if the physical requirements are 100 push ups, 100 sit ups and running a mile...all in under 12 minutes...Boom...there you go.  Those are the requirements and you either make them or you don't.  If my house is on fire...I don't give a rats ass who is pulling me out...I only give a rats ass that they CAN pull me out.

  19. So you can +1 status updates now! Go ahead and help test this feature by giving +1 to this status....

  20. Hey y'all, some American Nazis killed someone today. And ran a car into a crowd injuring countless other innocents. But, you know, both sides should really knock it off.

  21. Got to wonder if the trend of these new strongman-type training techniques are worth it with younger and younger athletes... http://www.espn.com/espn/story/_/id/20305333/high-schooler-dies-log-falls-football-drill

      Well I think maybe they're discovering some of these types of training techniques may not be appropriate for younger kids. Unfortunately it will take a few of these tragedies to get everyone on the same page. I can't fault them for trying it though. Just sad.

  22. OJ, shut up. They're trying to let you out...
