  1. The whole crowd gave a standing cheer too. It was great to see.

     

    Not to interrupt the moment with negativity, but can Nebraska get into trouble for this?

     

    It would be one the most dick moves ever in sports history, but a non-scholarship, non-student not only participated in a practice, but ran with the ball during a "live" drill.

     

    Anyone know if this was technically not allowed?

  2. I was just going through a Facebook album and came across a few pictures from the 2011 football season. Something didn't look quite right in one of the pictures...

    Crazy.

  3. Awesome gesture. But I'm skeptical how good pizza would be after sending it to Afganistan via DHL Express.

     

    Dude, I was deployed for 6 months, i'd have eaten ragu and cheddar off of cardboard, if you told me it was pizza

     

    Pretty sure they serve that same stuff on the Venice Beach boardwalk for $2 a slice.

    Just watched this last night. It's a GREAT flick. Can't believe I had not seen it before--it came out in 2000. (I saw a few minutes in the middle a while back, but hadn't seen the whole thing.) "Snatch" has the feel of a Cohen brothers movie. But it's not.

     

     

    //Note to others: If you want to do a Google search for this I'd advise putting some other search terms in addition to the words "snatch" and "movie" --- maybe include "Brad Pitt" too. :lol:

     

    Try "Lock, Stock, & 2 Smoking Barrels". Pretty similar and very good as well.

  5. I like being ranking as highly as possible. Deserved or not, I don't care as long as the Huskers are closer to 1 than 25.

     

    If there's one thing the past few seasons have shown, is that being ranked very highly at the beginning of the season gives you a mulligan for a loss. Start off lower ranked, and you don't have that.

  6. I was just wondering if anyone thinks that the Athletic department needs/already has people in place on Huskerboard that slowly trickle insider-information out in a planned way? Say, with posters with decent amounts of posts that have a good reputation for levelheadedness and accuracy.

     

    With how worked up this board seems to get over recruiting, hiring, etc, it would seem to make sense to have a few people on the department payroll that can chime in from time to time - without expressing direct athletic department employment - to throw an "insider" bone to the masses on Huskerboard. Or steer discussions in certain directions. There have been quite a few times when threads get pretty heated and hysteria starts becoming contagious.

     

    I don't pretend to know how influential Huskerboard might be, but I would think that non-rabid fans, recruits, and whatnot probably give it an occasional glimpse to measure the opinions of husker nation. So the athletic department not only keeping tabs, but influencing the board would be beneficial.

     

    Thoughts?
