      Don Draper is, by far, my favorite television character ever...

      Well thanks @The Dude got me started on the Sopranos...again. I've got all the DVDs but just figured out it's on Amazon Prime so am watching it that way on my iPad so my wife can watch whatever stupid Hallmarkish thing she wants on TV for awhile :lol:  I'd never noticed before you mentioned it but yeah, Tony looks much younger in the pilot than he does in the 2nd episode. Didn't realize the pilot was done that much earlier.

      Change iPad to laptop and that's been exactly my life the last couple weeks.  Most relatable thing I've ever read.

  2. Best HuskerBoard cliché? 

     

    "It isn't the 90s anymore" or "WE ARE NEBRASKA"?

      There's some truth to every single one of these responses.

      Wasn't Laroche the one that quit because his teammates were upset about his kid always being in the clubhouse?  Bo's a good babysitter

  4. Boy, that escalated quickly.

      I've got a never fail ad blocker. It's called "When the juice isn't worth the squeeze".

  8. Can anyone recommend a good free ad blocker for android?

    1. Enhance

      Enhance

      FWIW, more and more sites (especially news sites) are adding scripts that prevent users from accessing content if they have ad blockers turned on. Usually they'll serve you a message saying 'Allow ads' or something like that, but something to keep in mind.

      Speaking of Weinstein. $1mil bond is a joke for a guy of his stature and the crimes of his nature.

      The same thing happened to ESPN, it's hot garbage now. Less facts and stats more tweets and fashion faux pas. Like an hour or 2 of sports things people actually care about, followed by poo.

      I avoid all the news I can, whether the 24 hour variety or the 30 minute or 1 hour local news. 95% of it is just super depressing and 75% of it is sh#t I don't need to know about. I'm much happier when I don't see any news. I don't feel like I'm missing anything important and, if I am, I don't care.

      He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy.

       

      My childhood was typical.... summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap sack and beaten with reeds.... pretty standard, really.

      @The Dude Hulu has the first 2 seasons of Rick and Morty, will probably have season 3 up soon as it hust wrapped up.  It's the smartest show on TV, and I mean that sincerely.  Even though it looks abdolutely stupid at first glance.

      I went there once when it was a dump and it was some of the best wings I ever had.  I didn't even know they had a reputation for wings beforehand.

       

      Can a guy find better wings in Lincoln these days?

      I went there about a month ago and got wings and was not impressed.

      Ball of confusion.  That's what the world is today.

  19. Frost seems to be giving McCaffrey an honest shot.  That, or he's a dirty liar.

      @JJ Husker I agree with your take. Ultimately, I don't think Frost is full of crap, but I do think there's always a measure of coach speak associated with these kinds of things... trying to keep his guys focused by telling the media a certain thing or two.

       

      It's a win-win publicly if you're Frost. 

    3. Toe

      Coach speak, coach speak everywhere.

      Mostly coach speak, but I do think Frost is proud that both are competing and practicing at a high level.  How well QB1 plays under the lights will eventually speak for itself.  Play real well, keep it rolling.  Under perform often, make a change.  It's a great situation to have.  I like them both.

  20. Had a 4 legged dog yesterday and today I have a 3 legged dog.  Poor guy.

      He's doing very well and is very lucky (and fixed haha).  His kennel rattled open in the bed of the pickup and he jumped out doing about 45 mph.  It looked a lot worse than it ended up being.  I was sure I'd have to put him down all the way to the vet.  I think he's going to live a long, happy life and I'll probably feel worse about the leg than he ever will.

      @The Dude I hope you don't take my comment out of context poorly, and I wasn't trying to be a jerk.  I'm a dog lover, and it looks like your pup took a nasty spill. Hopefully he will adapt quickly and get back to having a fun-loving life.

      It amazes me that some people think 16+ years of complete program destruction can/should be solved in 19 games max.
