  1. We have been told over and over what great coaches we have especially when it comes to quarterbacks. So we will either see a great quarterback this year and understand the fact that those people were right about our coaches or we will see more of the same and it will make us understand that our coaches are just like everybody else's coaches… Where if you don't have great players it really doesn't matter.
  2. I know what you mean, but I think what Vegas is looking at is the fact that there are some really bad teams on Nebraska schedule this year. Fresno State, Wyoming, Maryland, Minnesota, Purdue, Illinois.
  3. Based off these options, my guess would be NU/UO in prime time because the other games listed are regional interest games, whereas NU/UO covers parts of the Midwest and the entire left coast. According to ESPN there are 3 more important nationally interesting games which are in bold.i guess I may have read that incorrectly, but what I'm trying to say is I don't see a SEC game being played prime time over NU/OU - if it came down to NU/UO or a SEC game. My theory is that the west coast would tune in for Oregon more than an SEC game. Maybe...but I am not sure if there are tons of duck fans outside of the alums and people in the state.
  4. That person is "struggling" because this race was supposed to be over but it is "not" even though we know who is going to win. That person looks like a bit of a loser now and can't concentrate their efforts where they would like to concentrate them. It should have been over a month ago. Sadly, it is not. Also, going back to Wilson? Interesting. I am guessing most have not done a lot of studying on him and things he believed in.
  5. This thread keeps getting better and better. Some of the things that people post in this thread are simply amazing. I can't stop reading this.
  6. Hammond and Jordy T had similar rankings. Something to keep in mind
  7. Did you work there or did you use it? Worked there, I would never use it! I have a buddy that has lived through many of their "black Fridays" that they used to do.
  8. Sounds more like how InfoUSA used to be run!
  9. When he signed I said he would break all the NU WR records. I don't know if he has a chance to do that but I would think he is close.
  10. I am starting to think this will be a PPV game! ha
  11. No....it just shows the irreverence they have for each other. No different than him just calling her Hillary or at least it's more respectable than Crooked Hillary. Maybe she is starting to become less civil like Trump?
  12. Anyone think it is odd that Mrs. Clinton refers to Mr. Trump as just "Trump" in that email? Seems a bit out of character for her.
  13. Okay people as it gets warmer what do you set your AC at? I am trying to keep it at 74 and it sucks

      @Dude: What did you do to upgrade insulation?

      I feel like this could have been its own thread!

      Replaced insulation in the attic. New doors and storm doors (this was huge). Insulated air ducts and sealed as much of the crawlspace as possible.

       

       

  14. Ahhh, but who determines what is strange? (Every TA ever in Philosophy and Sociology classes). Then I would usually start reading the DN and zone out.
  15. I know it's more fun to fly off the handle and get all upset about everything, but this doesn't sound like coed locker rooms or orgies in the bathrooms. It sounds like it has to be parent-initiated, and won't be "Johnny decided he was a girl today so he showered in the girls' locker room and sexed everyone." It is funny because this entire thread is basically people flying off the handle and getting all upset about everything. I imagine this will be followed with the class "Show me where someone flew off the handle" post (not by you Knapp, just in general)
  16. Hmmm, I remember that last year at the start of the season the Illini line was -9.5 I can't really remember any other ones right now.
  17. He didn't do a very good job of it, but what he was attempting to do was highlight the fact that you crassly pointed out your "expert's" looks, as if what she looks like has anything to do with her opinion.It's the kind of locker-room mentality that doesn't have a place in politics. We need people to absorb information and vote with their brain, not their heart or their balls. Haha! While I understand your concern, it has nothing to do with anything. If we have come to a point where we can get even acknowledge someone's looks, that is flat out ridiculous. There's a time and place for everything. We're simply stating that this is neither. Wow, wow wow wow.
  18. The froggy statement you make is 100% true.
  19. In before the "The Big Ten is so much better..." posts.
  20. I'd like to add self awareness and empathy, relateability. SaveSave If you add "nice" and "folksy" Mike Riley might as well be the next president.
  21. From an average person's standpoint, I can see how you think that. Have you ever watched Shark Tank? The Sharks invest in hundreds of companies on there, and not all of them become successful. The Sharks lose all or most of their money on a lot of their deals, but it's a law of averages. One investment that turns out great can make them millions and offset the ones that failed. That's how successful people work. They make quick, educated decisions and exhibit massive action. I will NOT critique Trump for several failed businesses, because that's a poor man's mindset. As far as the bankruptcies, of the 4 bankruptcies that he's filed for, 3 of them were on casinos. I think I see the problem. You're getting your financial perspective from"Shark Tank" and "The Apprentice." It's a tad more complicated than that, my friend. Amen! Those guys could have all just put their money in the stock market and they would have made more! I think I understand. Correct me if I'm wrong. A Trump Presidency would involve the US government creating a ton of new government programs and spend a boat load of money, on top of what we already spend. The "law of averages" says that one or two of those programs would be wildly successful and worth the money lost and people negatively impacted by the others. I mean, that's how they do it on Shark Tank, right? No clue, I don't know what Shark Tank is
