  1. Wild continue to own the Avalanche. 4-0(12-1 on goals)

  2. Tim Miles is not above criticism. I am not saying he is a bad coach or is even the problem, but he has to make changes. It looks like he is trying to.

      They do need to find a way to the hoop and not settle for outside shots. They miss open cutters enough for teams not to respect the cut, but I believe it's more of a mental issue than a Xs and Os problem. Their confidence is practically on suicide watch and they don't know how to handle success

      I'd like to see Miles install a fast breaking/secondary break into his game plan. Try and score points outside of the half court. Easy buckets. Put pressure on transition defenses. It also seems like we've been coached to use most or all of the shot clock. And sometimes it looks like we run plays early in the clock to run them and aren't really looking for shots. Maybe trying to shorten the game.

      There are hundreds of styles of offenses in basketball that can be effective. Zero percent of them work when you have a poor shooting team. I think Miles knows he has a poor shooting team which is why he's always urging them to drive the ball. Kids fall in love with the 3 pt line. Opposing defenses can play Pettewayspick and roll easily because of the lack of spot up shooters.

  3. I missed the Nebraska game--not sad about it either. This team is lost.

  4. Running backs are about to run their 40's if you want to see Ameer run.

      Yeah, I could run a 3.95 myself. Maybe a little faster if I stretched out and didn't drink a twelve pack of beer the night before.

      NUance its 3.95 seconds, not 3.95 minutes

  5. Need a good book to read, any suggestions? Winner will get all my +1's for a week.

      Only ALL your +1's for a week? You're going to have to raise the stakes if you want a good recommendation. So far- Charlotte's Web.

      Johnathan Kellerman has a series based in Alex Delaware. More of a psychological thriller

  6. Maryland has one of the worst fan bases from what i have heard in terms of being nasty... but even they took it too far by chanting "Shut up, Tim" to Timmy Miles... TIM IS A SAINT!

      Going to a game on the 28th. Can't wait for my son to hear the F word 6000 times.

  8. Pretty pitiful year for Nebrasketball. Very frustrating to watch Miles get outcoached over and over again.

      I don't think turnovers fall on the coach. The coaxh isn't the one making these guys careless with the ball. The other part I've pretty much partially agreed with. If I'm the coach, the next guy that gets the ball one on one in the paint and kicks the ball back out to the perimeter takes a seat on the bench. I think Miles has told these guys to get more agressive though, they aren't doing it. They've got to create shots underneath and draw contact.

    3. True2tRA

      I don't think it's a lack of talent either. (except with Rivers and Pitchford). You can be talented and not make shots though. These guys aren't making anything. So like I said, I agree with you. But still what is Mikes supposed to do? These guys should be able to put the ball in the hoop. The shots are there.

      One things KILLING us this year is no 3rd scorer. Pitchford is really hurting us this year by not being able to throw it in the ocean. His scoring is what sparked us last year. We weren't doing well last year either until he got rolling. He isn't doing it this year and nobody else seems to be able to be that guy either.

  9. Stayed at home and made pasta with the wife.. so full!

      They are significantly better than northwestern. Take tonight with a grain of salt. Lots of performances at the other end of the spectrum to suggest tomight was the anomoly.

  13. Silva looked good. Diaz entertained me, but no idea how he thought he won that fight. Only round he could argue he won was round 2.

  14. That game was sucky to be at.

      It's YOUR fault.

  15. I can not get behind the other bannings. I understood NUpolo's banning, but the other ones?

      Why did he get banned?

      I was just in the woodshed thread and eventually it looked like Chaddy, Mantis and Roto were just trying to get banned. It was stupid and they got what they wanted.

      and Marf earned his pretty well there at the end.

  16. Headed to the Barn in a little bit to cheer on the Big Red Machine.

  17. Trying to figure out if there is more outrage for the banning of NUPolo, ShawnWatson or Abdullah? I honestly think ShawnWatson was the funniest of the three...That banning was most surprising to me.

      our first house was a foreclosure and fortunately we had cash in hand since the Vegas market took a beating. We remodeled the house and are going to make 4 times what we paid for it. It was originally selling for 380k we got it for 75k.

      Mind you, we did have to jackhammer the concrete out of the toilets and just remove all bathtubs thanks to the disgruntled previous owners.

      Congrats dude. I just signed a lease on a duplex today so not nearly as cool.

  19. I heard Polo was banned for not chanting back "Go big Red" when someone yelled it first.

  20. Dont get why we dont go with a big lineup and work the ball inside against this defense.

  21. Finally got a chance to listen the DJ Neal interview. That was awesome and very impressive kid.

  22. House hunting. Found a great house but it is a forclosure.... Not sure if i want to mess with that route... #yolo

      I have bought a couple foreclosures to have as rentals and it was actually easier then buying a regular house.

  23. Not a pretty win for the Huskers, but a big win. Tai Webster is slowly turning the corner.

      A win is a win is a win. But, yeah. It was ugly alright.

      I guess I don't agree with ungly, we shot well, made free throws and scored 79 points, it was anything but ugly

       

  24. Connor McGregor isnt all hype... He brings it, but it will be a different fight when he faces Aldo.

    1. Omaha-Husker

      Omaha-Husker

      That was kind of insane. This one wasn't even close to a fair fight. I really don't follow MMA, but holy crap McGregor looks like a next level athlete.
