  1. We owe Pelini a lot less than he owes us. We gave him far more than his ability, experience, and character deserved.
  2. Bo's comments were not private. They were made to a large group of people who he used to coach. You've gotta be trolling. That's pretty much it. A coaches discussions with his players is not private. Yeah, that sounds right. That's pretty much it. They are not, and were not, his players. Thankfully, he was no longer part of their program.I'm pretty sure they would disagree. First, you say a coach's statements to his team are public. Now, you say they aren't his players. What are you smoking? I want some. First, they don't get to decide that a factual statement is false. Second, they weren't his team when he made those statements. At that time he was Mr. Pelini, former head coach of the Nebraska Cornhuskers. But, please. Do go on telling us that a statement made to 100+ former affiliates was "private." There is so many things wrong with your statements that I don't know we're to begin. Let's assume that they are not his players and he wasn't there coach (as you imply). Under these circumstances, is his conversation with them (and not you) private? When you talk with your friends, is that private? I just leave this with the following statement: you and I have different definitions of private. We might very well have different definitions of private. That said, if your definition of private is a self-aggrandizing speech made to more than a hundred former associates . . . well my definition is more accurate than your own.
  3. +1. Bo's record of wins and losses isn't the only reason why he will never, ever, coach another program of Nebraska's statute ever again. Time to give head coach Riley his turn. Line up the support, people. PARTICULARLY you folks who repeatedly claimed that all Nebraska fans had to support Pelini because he was the head coach at Nebraska. He isn't. Riley is. And thank goodness for that.

  6. Exactly. If you expect different public behavior compared to private behavior and then opine on the integrity of someone else . . . well . . .

  8. I'm pretty sure that there are several people on this board who quite literally have more "lives in their hands" every day than Bo f'in Pelini. He is (probably soon was) a football coach.
  9. Oh, good. Some people are going to blame the messenger again like many did with the f*ck the fans rant. The problem isn't the people airing Bo's bullsh!t. It's Bo. Always has been.
  10. Is trying for something/building something generally what you think of when you say "entitlement"? No, it just seems to be the image that they give off and the press as well - the next in line. Polling seems to support the idea that she is the next in line.

  12. Nothing screams freedom quite like a foreign corporation seizing privately owned land against the landowner's wishes. So glad that this is a GOP congressional priority. http://www.omaha.com/news/nebraska/keystone-xl-pipeline-transcanada-sends-final-offers-to--plus/article_2cd4561e-e60c-57c2-a630-2af45ade456a.html
  13. He really is getting pinched from all sides isn't he?
  14. I'm stunned, I tell you. Stunned. http://www.politico.com/story/2014/12/marco-rubio-says-cuba-talks-are-absurd-113639.html
  15. http://www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2014/12/17/alan-gross-released-from-cuban-prison.html?via=twitter_page Wow. About time, too. NUance will probably rejoice.
  16. I'm going to start brewing after Christmas, too. I did a Mr. Beer kit a long time ago but I'm expecting one of the midwest supplies kits. There are tons of home brew forums with good advice . . . and Patriot Homebrew Supply in Elkhorn seems pretty awesome. Should be interesting.
  17. This was the BEST!! Holy crap. Is that based on the Guns of Navarone book? I loved that book when I was a kid. In fact . . . I'd kind of like to read it again. Never knew this existed. Edit: apparently there was a movie too. Crazy.
  18. If you see this stuff around . . . buy it! I know some Hy-Vee locations in Omaha still have 4 packs left. It's a little pricey for 4 beers but it's one of the best local brews available in Nebraska.
  19. Stone Enjoy By IPA. Delicious. It's even available on tap at a few places.
  20. Are you saying that because you actually would consider voting for Christie, Bush or Romney? Or, are you saying that because you believe it would be easier for the Dems to beat either of those three instead of Ryan or Paul? I thought he meant it in the "lesser evil" sense. Not that he'd be voting for them . . . but that if a Republican were to win he'd prefer that they be more in the moderate mold. That's probably no different for Republicans.
