The Vikings. Logo was identical to the Minnesota Vikings except we were green and gold and had uniforms modelled after the Packers, at least until the 90s when they looked more like Baylor. I'm told they now wear black most of the time and have a helmet logo that rips off the Buccaneers. Seems originality has never been our strong suit, but then, neither has football (we once lost 42 games in a row).
Always thought that the Viking logo was funny considering it was southern Wisconsin and most people were Packer fans and loathed Minnesota.

In honor of Stuart Scott Day...who is or was your favorite ESPN (or any station) sports dude?
I think I have to go with Jim Rome, dude is still doing the same bit with the same 10 callers from 20 years ago but he still cracks me up! Anyone remember the Fabulous Sports Babe? Yikes!

Anyone ever rewatched the movie, Swingers, and thought..."How the hell did I think this was so good the first time"

@teachercd you have become the bunny.

ESPN Headline: Bama's offense rolls vs Auburn.
-
ESPN trying to figure out how Bama can still make the playoffs. Can't wait to hear them spinning it later tonight.

One word movie titles that you enjoy. (ONLY ONE WORD!) . I will start. Cocoon

Who was the badger basketball fan that kept trying to say how sweet the Badgers were going to be this season. Coach Bo is gone...
-
Any of your work at TD? When will that deal start to impact you?
-
Pick a SciFi movie that a TV/Netflix series could be created around. I will start...Predator

I know a lot of you like to pretend that Iowa is not a rivalry game...but guess what...this win today just made it one. If the Skers win Friday...and then win a bowl game...that is a great way to end this season.

How lame would it be to be at Bama or Auburn today and hosting Samford or WCU.

I’ve never really had to go through any official interview process to get a job. I’ve conducted quite a few interviews though. My favorite one was back in about 1995. I was interviewing a guy for a CAD drafting position. I had some Husker stuff in my office (here in Colorado). Well he was a Buffs and Rams fan and he was kind of flipping me sh#t, in a good natured way, for being a Nebraska fan. I really wanted a CU fan around to abuse when we played each other so I hired him. Worked out pretty well, he worked for me for about 9 years, at two different companies, and I always had that CU fan around to laugh at......except 2001 wasn’t great.

If you are a CBB coach, what are you wearing on the sidelines?
I gotta go with either the Huggy Bear pullover or a 1/4 zip.

@Cdog923 Agree on the baseball managers, disagree on the football coaches

@GSG Exhibit A:

If NU needs to beat Iowa to make a bowl game...get ready for a super sold out, totally packed stadium that is ROCKING.

Dang...good thing the Lady Huskers are good at sports, right?

I get the crying but I think for basketball we all expected this, maybe not that loss but a huge struggle.
-
If this season the farthest off from your prediction ever? I feel like there was a Solich season where my prediction radar was super far off too, I just can't remember which one.

It's pretty far off, at least. I'll say this, though: the defense actually looks basically the way I thought they would. A modest improvement over last year, but still way too inconsistent. A lot of people are acting like the the defense has regressed, but it really hasn't, it's improved a bit overall. I think people are forgetting just how awful the defense was a couple years ago.
The real story is how far the offense has regressed. They were expected to carry the team, but they went from being way ahead of the defense to being a bit worse than the D.

Big public "I am sorry" to @PaulCrewe, this entire time I thought he was saying that Vedral should be the starter and I fought him on it, but it turns out he was not saying that at all and I just didn't understand. Sorry! My bad! I am not wrong often (that is not accurate) but when I am I do like to admit it.
-
Not sure if or when you might have been at UNL...but good lord to think they would lose at home to a lame a$$ IU team...and then on the road to a lame a$$ Purdue team...is just crazy. Those are teams that NU used to beat in the non-conference by 40.

Hell yes, @Cdog923, the gyros from George's right on the corner. The Z sandwich. I still stop in there when I visit Lincoln (different owner now, I believe, but still delicious, even when sober). Many say Ali Baba's was better, but they are wrong.

Bean burrito enchilada style from Roberto's Taco Shop. @MLB 51thats my fav combo sober at Taco Bell.

Piece of technology that you remember being "So cool and new" when you were a kid?
