  1. I can't help it.  I think we're going to be really good this year.  This is the year Frost turns it around!

      Really screwed my pool sheet.  I had the Bucks to my Final Four.   But you know what?  It's almost worth it to see them humbled in such glorious fashion.

      Seems the B10 bought into their own hype. 

  3. How many B1G teams make the Dance?

      Who's the last B1G team to get in?

      I think 9 make it. Michigan St is the last in. I'll add that I don't think there will be more than 1 B1G team in the Final Four, and they will not win the title.

      @commando that wasn't really called for. Nuance seems to have genuine questions and is brave enough to ask them in a public forum. Some people haven't followed this as close as others, and may not understand it as well as you do. Being a jerk doesn't really encourage them to learn more.

       

      As to your hospice death @NUance, if she had COVID-19 odds are it accelerated her condition and was at least partially responsible for her death. I would trust the doctor's diagnosis (that's what they trained for). There are a number of symptoms and complications related to COVOD-19, one of which is cardiac issues as was noted before. 

       

      If you're a hemophiliac who is shot and bleeds-out did you die from hemophilia or a gunshot wound?

      thing is....it's the entire right wing that is swinging towards saying that the y are overcounted  my question is  if they are actually overcounted...what is causing all the extra deaths?

    4. ZRod

      ZRod

      Then ask that question and don't be condescending about it. It's not that hard.

  7. Do you know anyone personally who has died from Covid-19?

      @ZRod where do you live at, if you don't mind me asking? At least in Lincoln/Omaha, I haven't heard anything about antibody tests being available. Would take one in a heartbeat if offered... 

       

      But hey, the state is open for business next week! ;)

      Some of the hospital systems here are offering them to employees to further their research. It's a catch 22 though because they've treated their employees pretty s#!tty at some hospitals. Makes you wonder; do you really want to make them look good, and could they use it against you to make you work a positive floor or overtime.

      My mother-in-law is a nurse in Denver and she had an antibody test as has most (all?) of the staff at her hospital.

  8. When a woman calls a guy to tell him something why does she have to restate the entire previous conversation?  Why can't she just skip all that and just take 10 seconds to tell him the one new thing added to the conversation?

      Ozark is next up as soon as I finish s2 of Altered Carbon. Made no headway this weekend tho. Watched the 85 NCAA men's bball final, the 18 Olympics women's hockey Gold medal game and the Celtics/Lakers 30 for 30. Felt good to watch some sports.

    3. RedDenver

      Altered Carbon is good. I like all the twists and double crosses and such, but I wish they'd spend some time on the world building.

      I started on Altered Carbon and thought it was pretty good.  But got busy and I haven't watched in a while.  Might have to go back and finish it.

      I'm far less concerned about the testing at this point than I am with actually treating it.  Case numbers will only go up, treating it and lowering the death toll stat is what I'm worried about.  And people are stepping up to help manufacture equipment and find treatments and get that moving.

    3. Toe

      @Redux If you're pinning your hopes on treatments being found in a timely manner, well, good luck with that...

    4. Redux

      Redux

      Obviously not.  The 18 month pipe dream is not happening either.  But I'd feel kuch much better hearing updates on that front instead of everyone complaining about test numbers being factual or unfactual.

      My youngest son's father in law had a band years ago that opened several concerts for KR. They were supposed to do several more but their van died on the way and they couldn't get there. That ended that gig.

      ^^^Ding, ding, dingwinner, winner chicken dinner.  I'd use someone else's vehicle, probably a rental.  It'd have lots of DNA evidence from others in it.  Of course I wouldn't rent it myself.  I wouldn't want to be on camera associated with that vehicle.  Instead, I'd steal it from someone else who rented it.  It might even be a good idea to use a truck—like a pickup truck or small moving van.  A pickup truck would be best.  That way I could have a dirt bike strapped down in the back in case things went haywire.  Also, pickups are a more comfortable ride.  They better on the back for tall guys like me!

      Sucks.  Buddy owns a bar and it is tough times for them.  The only things recession proof is usually bars, education, and medical.  I guess pandemics is a whole other ball game.  

    3. NUance

      I'm thinking it might be a good time to open a bar in a couple months or so: Cheap labor to help build out the space right now while everyone else is closed; Plenty of bar tenders and waitresses looking for work; Quite a few establishments are going belly up due to being closed for so long.  (Is is evil that I think this way??  lol)

      I'm doing outdoor activities all year round,  I keep a emergency bag of supplies, toilet paper included in my truck, boats,  on the atv and snowmobile, but in a pinch in summer, button weed is ideal,fall winter and early spring is when I come home missing a sock.

  18. So ... what ARE the odds of Nebraska winning the next Superbowl?

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      IDK but it has to be similar to the odds of the Denver Broncos winning it.

  19. Khalil clocks a 4.76.  Fasted 40 time since 2003 for player over 300 lbs.  Brother Carlos clocks 4.82.  Both all time top ten times for players over 300 lbs.

      I saw a few minutes of this Saturday. Daniels was closely followed by one of the Davis twins.  The announcer made the statement " Nebraska has 3 DLmen at the combine and they still couldn't stop anyone."

      Heh, it might've had something to do with the guys standing right behind them.   The operative word there is "standing".

      Really, it should be called 'late signing day' now. And there's not much reason to attach the word 'early' to the December signing day - it's the normal signing day now.
