  1. 14 times world heavyweight champion!

    I thought he was up to, like, 17 at some point? Po, help me out here.

     

    Sixteen time (eight-time NWA, six-time WCW, and two-time WWF) and I agree with you sir, the quotations were ill advised. My emotions got the best of me.

  2. Hey all--in spite of the outcome, I wanted to tell you all that my daughter had an incredible time, cheered for all four quarters, and she even got on the ESPN broadcast more than once (as we found out from scores of friends via Facebook).

     

    In spite of all the current herp and derp surrounding the program, there's at least one little girl that's proud to be a Husker and can't wait to be back in Lincoln, win or lose, thanks to your help and suggestions.

     

    Hell ya.

  3. Solid post...good analysis although I see next year being as much of a struggle as it was this year. Definitely not saying we are not up to the task but we are losing some quality players. We will recover... this is a young team but it can only get better. We need a D that can play potentially lights out versus not only a pocket passer but a guy who has scrambling prowess. Tougher said than done by a long shot. I have to say I am really liking the vibe from this conference so far though. Looking forward to a strong finish for the Cornhuskers in 2011-12 and a promising season in 2012-13.

  4. Perhaps I am too shortsighted, but I just don't see this becoming more than a big yearly game. Not a major rivalry on the national or local scene. I would of much much much preferred Wisconsin to be the protected crossover game. Obviously Wiscy/Minnesota is too big of a rivalry to make that happen.

     

    It just seems happenstance to me. Since neither PSU or Nebraska has a long history with other B1G teams they decided to put those two together. Give it half a decade and maybe my stance will change though, who knows.

     

    So more along the lines of say a Colorado game or Mizzou?

     

    Maybe "friendship" was a bit hasty.....perhaps relationship would have been a better term. I just fear rivalry games bonded by respect (bitter or not) like Oklahoma are a thing of the past in the B1G for NU.

  5. In regards to PSU I know there was some ugly 2002 blood and certain uncertainty leading into this weekends contest. With coach Brown leading by example and the showing of solidarity between the two teams yesterday before the game in the wake of such tragedy do you see this PSU/NU divisional rivalry becoming something special or just another game? To me it seems that both teams should feel a certain respect for each other after yesterday and continue that good sportsmanship into future games.

  6. Such a shame to see a guy like Crick go down for the count. What heart the kid has though...a testament to his character. I hope to see him succeed in the NFL and wish the brute the best!

     

    This question pops into my head though. I know that a hobbled Jared Crick is still a huge threat out there and so did the teams we played so far. We saw double teams on the guy all season. This will free up the other teams guys to potentially cause more trouble for our defense. I hope that whoever fills his shoes is ready to take their game to the next level.

     

    GBR!

  7. I do not post much but I have to pipe up here. Booing these kids is deplorable and sends a stark message that nothing short of perfection is acceptable. Criticism leads to growth but a line needs be drawn. These kids bust their ass week in and week out to what end? To err is human. To have "fans" reject effort and struggle through verbal jeers to the point of wanting perfection is so weak. We are better than this as a fan base! This team is young and not a top 10 team....not this year, but we are close...at least I hope so. I speak of faith...faith in your team and yourself through thick and thin. Frustration is inevitable but must be weathered.

     

    We have all the talent and skills to thrive in the realm of college football. However there is unquestionable youth and inexperience on this team. This is an unfortunate reality yet is no reason to abandon these players no matter how many years they have worn scarlet and cream. Players new and old need discipline and confidence to take us to the next level. A lot of this comes down to coaching and execution...no doubt. But part of this needs to come from the fans that turn their back on their team at the first signs of adversity.

     

    These players see what other fans can and will do for their teams around the nation... on television and in person. Many teams fans put ours to shame but I still think we have one of, if not the best collection of fans of the game in the country! We need to let our positives outweigh our negatives in good times and bad. This is a rocky ride and you better be in for the long haul because we have a ways to go! To quote a certain doctor of journalism.....'“If a thing like this is worth doing at all, it's worth doing right.' This pertains to being a fan and during times like these the team needs to know that the NU faithful, the Sea of Red have their back today, tomorrow and for months to come! Get up, stand up!

     

    GO BIG RED!

  8. This dip is great on a thin crust pizza! My wife made it for us this past weekend and I had to pass along the greatness. First make the chicken dip which can be enjoyed on crackers or celery sticks...whatever you like!

     

    Ingredients (Dip)

    1 - 8 oz. pkg cream cheese (softened)

    1/2 cup ranch -or- blue cheese dressing

    1/2 cup hot sauce (I prefer Frank's Red Hot)

    2 (12.5 oz) cans of chunk chicken -or- grill some breasts up and cut it up!

     

    Directions

    Heat cream cheese in pan on low heat and then mix in dressing and hot sauce. When close to smooth add the chicken chunks and stir. That's the dip! Serve it on anything you like.

     

    Ingredients (Pizza)

    1 - pizza crust (store bought or make your own...see below)

    1 - pkg cheese (Mozzarella or Blue Cheese crumbles)

     

    Directions

    Coat the crust with the dip and top with cheese of your choice. Bake it up according to crust directions -or- follow directions below for a ass kicking crust.

     

    Ingredients (Crust)

    2.5 cups bread flour

    2.25 teaspoons yeast

    1 cup water

    1 teaspoon salt

    1 teaspoon sugar

    2 tablespoons olive oil

     

    Directions

    Mix it all up until it is mixed. Let it sit 10 minutes. You don't need to knead it. Divide it up. It makes 4 thin crust 10 inch pizzas. Save what you want in the refrigerator in round bottom containers coated with olive oil. The flavor improves up until about day 5. It will also store well in the freezer for a few weeks. Bake it at 425 for 15 minutes.
