Damn I don't like Seattle but its hard not to respect them. Man they play hard. Kinda the same way I feel about New England.

All I can say about Green Bay is at least their players fought for it. They wanted it. Hell, Denver made it clear they didn't give two sh#ts. That's more embarrassing than the loss itself.

We'll all just be miserable together. In the end none of us got what we wanted. I actually wanted a GB-Den super bowl, for real. I was mad at Denver because I thought they were arrogant, and I thought the fan base was being a little arrogant too. That's really all it was about. If you felt personally slighted by that comment, then I take it back. I wasn't trying to troll anyone specifically, so I hope you can understand that I'm a little taken back when someone seeks me out af...

after what is, admittedly a very soul crushing defeat to deal with right now.

I disagree.

Qmany is right. He's absolutely winning another major.

He may win another one, but he'll never surpass Jack.

No biggie. I go through the same thing at work all the time. I get the "are you serious" a lot.

I really feel sorry for you if you didn't watch this Masters because you thought it was boring.

!!!!

I've seen far worse at HS homecoming rallies and parades.  Get over it 2018

I'm not offended, it just pissed me off.

Who's offended by it?  It's not offensive, it just took a little tarnish off of a great event, is all.

Ten wins and no trophy is impressive to exactly nobody outside the state of Nebraska. We shouldn't even have been in a bowl this good.

So, Cheese? Are you saying that Bo progressed too fast then? If he goes 7 and 7 his first season and then wins 8 and 9 his next two, would ten wins be okay now?

Perhaps I should add a caveat then... I don't think four BAD losses is acceptable. 3-4 years ago, they were losing games by scores like 16-15 and 13-12. Now they are losing games 70-31 and 63-38. People want to say 10-4 is 10-4, but I don't think it tells the whole story.

Agreed that the plate umpire was inconsistent and generally horrible all game with the strikes/balls. Really embarrassingly bad

Agree with all posts...I thought she slid under the tag, forced off base..but with 6 errors, tough to say we deserved to win..the non-call on strike 3 was horrible..great effort, and it was like they played 3 games..ha

Hard for me to say the 2nd game was anything but our fault, we could have and should have won. However that first game was just pathetic. The ump refused to call a strike and Edwards was hitting the zone. She had to throw it right down the middle to get a call. it was hard to watch.

I read this morning that they have a suspect.  I hope they catch him right away.  http://www.cnn.com/2017/11/01/us/colorado-walmart-shooting/index.html

@ladyhawke the suspect has been arrested http://www.denverpost.com/2017/11/02/thornton-walmart-shooting-suspect-identified/

Oh that's wonderful news!  Thanks for sharing ColoradoHusk!

No offense Xmas. That is a terrible trend that is happening when it comes to people and how they get information. They read headlines and assume they know what's going on without reading the article. Kids are awful with it in school. They read a headline and freak out over something they know nothing about. It's sad.

Well this status escalated quickly

@Coach Power'T I find myself doing that from yime to time. It's a bad habit, but I like to get tons of info so I try to train myself to read all the articles.

I put the NCAA tournament 2nd behind college football bowl season for non-Husker sporting events that I like to watch.  The Super Bowl is far behind both for me.  That said, I actually really like baseball season and having 5 or 6 games per week.  I don't get to watch that many, but I like following my teams.

I actually enjoy listening to baseball on the radio while I'm working.  My wife likes when I listen to baseball on the radio while we're driving because that's the only time she can fall asleep in a car. 

I’m a seasonal sports freak. College football is my favorite then March Madness then college and Royals baseball. I could care less about the super bowl (Unless The Chiefs, Rockies or Packers are in it). Love, Love, Love The Tour de France then I’m back to college football again. I agree that this year’s NCAA basketball tournament has been really exciting!  My final team is still in it so we’ll see what happens!

I guess it goes back to Nebraska being irrelevant and really having nothing else to root for. I don't even bother with brackets or anything. Call it weird.

@Decoy73:  Trevor Robinson from 10 or 12 years ago.  Went to Notre Dame and played three or four years in the NFL.  (Edit:  But I guess you said skill position.  Trevor Robinson was a OG in college and center in the NFL.)

Not a skill player, but Harrison Phillips was great at Stanford and is now at the Buffalo Bills.  Among skill players, Xavier Watts from Burke was another skill player which NU has lost out on, but it's too early to tell how good he will be at Notre Dame.

Jaylin Bradley was an Omaha-area recruit who I thought would be good at Nebraska, but his career never panned out.

I should point out I don't fault any of them at all. It's an indictment on us, I think.

You'll bitch when you're 2-14 and you'll bitch when your 9-2. Sad....

They really aren't that bad. These are two very good teams. Very good game so far and thanks to Manning, my fantasy team is in the playoffs!

They're a good team. Denver is just a better team. Considering their record and performance over the last seasons, they're actually f'ing amazing this year.

he has a certified fresh rating with 97%.

Once a rattlesnake bit him, after 5 days of excruciating pain, the snake finally died.

Heh, this is like turning into Chuck Norris facts redux.

That would give him more rings than Marino and the same number as Favre. People put too much stock in grading individual players by championships in team sports.

According to some, MattyIce is also a one-ring wonder.

One Ring to rule them all.

TAKODA. The pissing it out is the least painful part. It's actually a relief, because the pain comes from the stone scraping through your ureters. When you pee it out, a lot of times you're pissed off that something that small was causing that much pain. If it's taking a month though, it's probably a bit bigger.

Maybe you're pregnant?

I have a feeling I'm probably passing pieces of it at a time which is why it is so intermittent and persistent. Made an appointment. Had to schedule a follow up anyway, so I went ahead and moved it forward. My 40th birthday is in two weeks.

^And you have giant lips.

of constant sorrow.

Ha, that went in a few directions I didn't expect, but nicely played

I never received your Venmo payment @CheeseHusker

Solution is simple, @C N Red, just be more popular!

And while you kids in the in crowd are handing out participation roster spots, can I have one too? 

8 turnovers in the game. 4 for each side. Both teams had a pick six. Weird.

Almost sounds scripted

Rodger didn't fumble, but his second INT was one of the worst of his career, and he threw way too many passes into traffic. He deserves some significant blame.

It's weird - I only this year started noticing that fans of a lot of other schools have players last names on their jerseys. You almost never see that at Nebraska.

to many greats to a number here Landlord.

I wonder if maybe the opposing fans I observed throughout the season were more often than not parents or related to the players - that would make more sense to me.

And the fans stopped showing up to the games. LA is a Baseball/Basketball town. The Raiders would prefer to stay in Oakland. They just can't reach any kind of deal on a new stadium.

I think teams threaten to leave sometimes to create an uproar and get a new stadium built for them. At taxpayer expense.

I'm a huge sports fan, but tax payers shouldn't be footing the bill for these stadiums, when the owners are billionaires.

@Enhance I thought about that for a bit yesterday, too.  It looked like the guy sat down next to a man that looked like he could be his dad.  Maybe this was a way to have a souvenir to remember a special day.  

But then I thought if it were my dad and me.  I would give the kid the ball and have a cool conversation with my dad about the special things in life.   My point: if we're going to go "there", the man is is still an Iowa fan, and still a douche. 

@JJ Husker I'm not debating the 'right' thing to do, as I already acknowledged it. I'm mostly questioning the reaction. I don't see the reason or logic behind completely losing one's mind and publicly shaming this guy, or calling him some pretty bad names, and there's been a lot of that. You would've thought he punched the kid in the face and said something bad about his mother based on how some people are treating it.

I also don't really see where he 'stole' it or took it from the kid. They both went for it at the same time. The older guy got it. Again, yeah, it's sort of lame to compete against a kid for that, but some people are going totally overboard about it IMO.

I guess I don't see the problem with the guy taking some abuse for it. He did the wrong thing and now he's paying for it. Granted I haven't specifically seen the things being said about him. Maybe there is some overreaction but that's why you shouldn't be a douche, in public anyway.

Besides that....Iowa 

Ha ha!  You gotta remember which sock you're logged in as.  Just sayin..

@CheeseHusker likely some spammer was using multiple Australian IPs and we blanket banned the whole country. I seem to remember something about that from back in the day.

That actually makes a lot of sense.

It's no big deal but I was just thinking "what the heck did I do?"

I doubt the site gets all that much viewing from this part of the world.

Go Blues!

Should have taken the whole year off. This year is going to be a farce. Expecting a lot of empty seats.

they just need to get rid of bettman to save the nhl otherwise he will be the end of that league.

GODGERS

Moose knuckles?

where Kansas

The Cards forgot to bring their bats on the trip.

The last 3-4 years they have struggled at Wrigley.

Cubs, the epitome of "Wait til next year".

Yeah, that part sucks. Was he like this when he was here, or is it a result of Schwartz's undisciplined clusterf#@k? I see lots of Lions having similar issues.

It's gotta be Schwartz. I mean, though he is an intense, physical player, he was never "dirty" as he's been in the NFL. Also, keep in perspective that his overwhelming strenght makes some of the things he's gotten gruff for look much worse than they were. But there's no excuse for other things he's done either.

I tend to think it's Schwartz as well. But maybe there's stuff we didn't hear about while he was here.
