      It was called by someone, unfortunately we drank too much kool aid to believe him for which I apologize.

      Calling a timeout before running a single play in the second half.

       

      That's when I went "uh oh".

      Ya, I was never confident. I thought we needed to go up 24-0 on our first drive of the 3rd quarter.

      Are you my fiance or is he stalking you, or did someone in Ratt die or get elected?

      He's listening to Ratt today, which he's never done before in my presence.

  3. Acceptable time to start mowing your lawn?

      I was starting around 10 and mowing consistently at 12 when my brother graduated and moved out. Also, learned my lesson to not let the lawn grow too high when my dad jumped all over me for not getting my chores done when asked. A 20 minute job turned into a 2hr job because he made me mow through rain and bag it. I learned my lesson and now maintaining my lawn is one of my favorite hobbies.

      I want to say I was around 12.  To say that I was overjoyed when we finally got a self propelled lawn mower would be a gross understatement.

    4. Savage Husker

      Savage Husker

      @Xmas32 haha I believe it. My dad held out until I moved to college before getting a self propelled. 

  4. Again, where is that Badger dork that told me how great the Badgers would be at Basketball?  Also...the Rutgers coach still would have been a great hire for NU.

  5. All Illini Fans:  Thanks for getting Lovie an extension...f#&%ing Wisconsin.

  10. Any of you clowns ever get busted in college for drinking or drugs or having sex with sheep, @JJ Husker, I am talking to you.

    I did not but I had a buddy get caught with booze in the dorms and had to do the "class" on a Saturday morning and one time I had to let the campus cops walk through our Frat house...

      It's great for bacon, no mess. With having 6 kids this is a life saver for quick meals when dad's home alone.

      I get my butt in the car and go to the restaurant and pick up my own food. Always have. When your 8 piece chicken wings shows up with 7 pieces.

      I have a Chase Sapphire Preferred credit card and they are offering a full year of Premium Doordash for all 'DashPass' restaurants, which essentially means you don't have to page the usage fee; you just pay for the food + tax and then a tip for the driver.

       

      DoorDash has also added TONS of restaurants to the DashPass in the last few days because of the coronavirus. The service is currently defaulted to 'no contact delivery' so they drop it off at the door and text you through the app saying it's there. So far, I've been really pleased.

       

      If you don't have a Chase card, paying for the premium service for the next couple of months may be worth it if you want to use it more than 3+ times. I think it's about $10/month for premium.

      @JJ Husker I'm in the same boat. What they're recommending right now for delivery food is to transfer the food from the containers onto your own dishware (using your own utensils) and then making sure to wash your hands again before eating.

  13. Any of your work at TD?  When will that deal start to impact you?

    1. ColoradoHusk

      ColoradoHusk

      Comments were made today that the headquarters will be located in Westlake, Texas.  Whether anyone's job is in jeopardy really depends if that person's job could be redundant with someone else in Westlake or any other of Schwab's offices.

  14. Any posters on campus?  What is that vibe like now?

      Well said @ Toe.  You pretty much typed up everything I was going to say.  The only thing I would add is steering towards one owner cars if it all possible because then you can glean some additional info about the owner and tried to make an educated guess as to whether the car was taken care of or not.

      What is the most amount of miles you would be okay with on a used car?

      Depends on your budget, I suppose. I think my first car already had a six-figure odometer reading when I bought it. My last one was about 40k.

      yes.  I'm still find myself subconsciously thinking "It's not going to happen".

       

      Maybe when fall camp starts and we start seeing reports from practice, it will start becoming a reality.

      @ColoradoHusk Watched a little bit of that today. Had the day off and it happened to be on.

       

      Yeah, mostly though, what you said last. He just seemed like a good person.

       

      I always enjoyed that Simpsons episode where you find out he's Krusty's half-brother and Krusty hates him.

       

       

  20. Anyone else like the weird camera shots we got during the game today?

      JJ Husker

      IDK about weird camera shots specifically but that was one of the worst covered games from top to bottom I’ve ever seen. I can’t really consider much beyond Brady Quinn and that other numbnut.  They were absolutely horrible. I’m rewatching it today and I really want to punch those guys.

    3. Savage Husker

      Savage Husker

      Hated the off camera angles. Also couldn’t see JD at the bottom of the screen on the fumble. There were moments where Quinn did not sound intelligent when speaking, that’s not a criticism of his analysis, but on his grammar. To criticize his analysis, I couldn’t believe he said that after NU forced the punt after the fumble that the turnover didn’t bite the Huskers. Buddy...we were inside the 10 yard line.

      Fox has always sucked at college football but my bias against yesterday's broadcast started in the studio show before the game. Their know-all pointspread guru was laughing, wondering how when the game opened at -21.5, "who is betting on Nebraska?" to bring the line down to 19. His prediction, 45-17 or something like that. Good job dumbf#ck.

  21. Anyone else make their first tic-tock yet?

      OH heck yeah!  I melt the butter with a little salt and baste the steaks right when they come off the grill.  Let 'em rest for 4-5 min.  Mmmmmm.  Now I'm hungry.

    3. StPaulHusker

      StPaulHusker

      I haven’t eaten a steak in a year but if I did, I would try this.  Sounds delicious.

    4. RedDenver

      RedDenver

      If you cook the steaks in a pan (or even if you just pan sear them), you can use butter in the last minute or so and then make amazing pan sauces from what's in the pan after removing the steaks.

  23. Anyone else tired of the OWH writers jocking up each others stories and constantly begging people to subscribe?  It seems like every other tweet is "Go read this story from _________" or "For just X amount a day you can have all this great content"

      Its funny because it is more expensive than the Athletic and you get far less unique content. I get the local Husker angle but today on the Athletic they had a story about Glynn Watson and the Huskers... I get they need to make money but charging for subscriptions is not the best route. Figuring out a way to get advertising viewed is the way.
