      Everyday becoming an ex-patriot and working as a bartender in a straw shack on a beach in someplace like Puerto Vallarta sounds better and better. Just wish they had better Healthcare there.

      Expatriate*, but yours works too if you don't like the country anymore.

  2. Okie Lite mauling the Sooners. Any way Okie Lite grabs #2 BCS spot from Bamy?

      OSU has my vote. Bama should not get a rematch when they already lost at home.

  3. Do we make the CBI? (I don't think the NIT will come calling.)

      I'd like to see us play. It would be good practice for next year. When we make the Big Dance.

      Part of me would like to see us play...and another part remembers us getting demolished by Wichita St. This team just isn't going anywhere. I'm hoping next year is cool though.

      There has never been a Big 10 team in a tourney lower than the NIT. Miles has said he's not going to have the 1st one.

  4. In the history of message boards, has there ever been an argument where one person convinced another to change his mind? Ever?? lol

      I know for me it has been good to be challenged on my thoughts and statements. Always good to look at something in a different light and good for me to research my and others point of view to make sure I know what I think.

      I just changed my mind on a message board, NUance. I now hate you. ;)

      I'll also add, though, a site like Huskerboard doesn't change people much.

       

      Even though we have our differences, overall, we're all the same demographic with the same cultural upbringings. There's not much extreme either way to challenge our thoughts.

  5. Think I pulled a muscle in my foot tonight. Maybe I broke it. Bad timing on this. My wife goes on her annual one-month vacation to her sister's in DC. That's when I do all the fun stuff. /pissed

      College? Mariota. NFL? Winston

    3. ZRod

      ZRod

      What NUance said. He's bigger, more durable and harder to take down. Part of Mariota's game is his run threat, but I don't think that would last long in the league, unless he takes notes from Wilson.

    4. Marf

      You guys are high. Winston is going to flop hard. Too dumb to read an NFL defense.

      Atbone95 students don't really care about the spring game. There are a few who will go, but not even close to what a normal game would bring.

  10. Dear God, thank you for all your blessings. You've given me so many things, like good health, nice parents, a nice truck, and what I'm told is a large penis. And I'm very grateful.

      I hope them overlook them just enough to get a little practice in for Oregon but not so much that Wyoming is in the game much after halftime.

  14. I can't get my rototiller to run. 5.5 HP Briggs & Straton. I can start it (with starter fluid). But after 10 seconds or so it sputters and quits. I just used it a month ago and it ran like a champ. Any ideas?

      Running, sputtering and then stopping would indicate a fuel flow problem to me. It's been a long time since I disassembled one of those but my money is on the fuel line or fuel filter if it has one. Old gas can get gummy. I'm a firm believer in using Sta-Bil.

    3. MLB 51

      electronic fuel valve on the bottom of the carburetor bowl. If you didn't drain the fuel, they will get gummed up and and stay closed.

    4. NUance

      NUance

      Ahhh, the fuel filter. Good idea. I haven't looked at that. Ever.

       

      I'll look to see if there's an electric fuel valve too.

      Never lived there. But I once dashed from the Pound stairwell door to the exit door at 4:30am just ahead of the night watchman. lol

      My now wife lived in Pound for a couple years (81-82). I don't think I ever entered through the main doors. Always used the back stairwell fire exit because it was after hours or before hours.

      Another time I met a buddy there in his gf's room. She was an RA. We smoked a little weed to pass the time before she got back. She was REALLY pissed when she returned. Said she could smell it right when the elevator door opened. Was gonna bust whoever it was. She was very surprised to discover it was coming from her own room. lol

      Agreed with others that OSU took their time on purpose. The longer they took to make a decision, the longer people had to forget. Smart strategy if all you care about is winning football games.

      I think Urbs gets a time served penalty, his wife quietly gets put on administrative leave for the fall semester and then comes back and everyone feels really dirty about it.  I wouldn't be entirely shocked if Gene Smith announces his retirement effective next year.

      Final AP rank from 1974 to 1980 in order: 9,9,9,12,8,9,7. Yea TheSker, we're clearly talking apples to apples here. When has Pelini finished that high again? Don't act like Pelini is on the same level.

      I've heard a lot of people say sh#t like this, but I think Watson's biggest problem was he didn't have the personnel to run the offense he wanted, and wasn't able to adjust to the talent he had. In short, Lousiville is the right place for him, NU was not.

    4. NUance

      NUance

      I think he's a better OC than HC. Should stay put.

  22. Wow, what a roller coaster yesterday. But I guess it helped put some closure on the Pelini era. I mean, could anyone possibly support the guy now?

      I wonder why someone would go to the hassle of running this, and then pay out prize money? Can the commissioner see everyone's picks? If so, maybe they use it for betting insights.
