      Wow...that trailer is depressing as f**k. :wasted

       

      Thank the Baby Jesus that Scott Lang drove his van cross-country in post-Apocalyptic Snap America to bring us comedy relief.

      Will we finally be done with super hero movies after this?

  2. An absolute garbage defense is going to ruin a historic Chiefs offense.

      Chargers are an 11-3 team nobody is talking about.

      No kidding!  They were up by 14 when I turned the tv off. When I heard they had lost I couldn’t believe it! 

      But I was thrilled to hear our VB Girls came back and won the semifinals against IL.  What an incredible comeback!

      Well....that and Kareem Hunt

  3. Happy 89th Birthday, Buzz Aldrin. Let's remember the time he punched a moon landing denier in the face: https://twitter.com/MeredithFrost/status/1086968219238318080

      Ha, that was awesome. Had not seen before. Buzz can throw a punch.

      I've heard about that for years but never realized someone caught it on video.

      That dude saw stars!  Good for Buzz!

      Seems like I'm hearing something worse about it every 30 min. Gov. keeps pushing back his press conference too, likely due in part to how quickly stuff keeps changing.

      Better not make it east of 168th!

  5. Anyone play Fantasy Baseball? I've been offered Kershaw for Nola, and am mulling it over. 

    1. MLB 51

      MLB 51

      I don't play, but if Kershaw is healthy, I would probably do it.

       

      Might trade him away before the playoffs, though. :)

    2. Danny Bateman

      Danny Bateman

      Would do.

       

      Neither of their statlines are large enough to have stabilized this early into the season, but Nola seems off. I had Kershaw for many years in a keeper league, but finally let him go this year with the all the injuries and allure of younger guys.

       

      Still, I think they're both risky at this point, but to me Kershaw is still going to offer elite level performance when he's on the field. Nola probably will but I think Kershaw is the safer bet. Just be ready for him to miss some time.

      Used to play it...man that first season we played I think the post board ended up with like 5,000 posts...we loved it.

      I have watched a few others and actually kind of enjoy watching for a few minutes. I am knocking out some work on one screen and have the game on the other.... GBR!

      HuskerInLostWages

      I saw it yesterday and we were up by 20 and then Martinez got hurt and we kicked a field goal.  Never saw what the final outcome was.

      Washington scores a late 24-yd TD. NU 54 Miami 24. We had 14 sacks :blink:

  7. Good lord, it's been a weird one around here today.

  8. A friendly reminder: don't follow kids on Twitter, regardless of if they want to come play for your football team.

      Is a portion of our fan base embarrassing us on Twitter again?!

      @B.B. Hemingway probably just Matty

      madman23

      there is a difference between following recruits on twitter, and bashing them with hate b/c they made a life decision that you don't like. 

       

  9. I look forward to reading in the Football board how those first two drops were Martinez's fault. 

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      There’s definitely a few drops that were not 2AM’s fault but there are plenty of things to talk about that were his fault. 31-0 with 3 min to go in the first half looks great on the surface but I’d say it should be 45-0 without some of Adrian’s mistakes. Maryland is absolutely hapless.

    2. Cdog923

      Cdog923

      @JJ Husker You aren't wrong, but not everything is automatically AMart's fault, much to the chagrin of people in the game thread. 

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      @Cdog923 it’s far from all his fault. We have plenty of issues. But he is nowhere near the same player we saw last year. IDK what it is but I hope they get it figured out cuz it’s obvious Frost won’t make adjustments when his starting QB makes repeated mistakes. I hate to complain when  we’re destroying a team like this but some of his passes and decisions and not seeing open receivers....I don’t get it other than we all know he has the most potential. I just wish it would start showing more in games. It’s making me question Frost and Mario.

      I don't think any of the Welters beat him and he could easily win a Middleweight title at this point.

    3. RedSavage

      RedSavage

      That might have been the closest fight he’s ever had and it really wasn’t even that close by the end.  

  11. Jason Kirk leaving Vox now, too. The SBNation guys could start their own website and probably be the best CFB news site out there. 

     

     

    1. Saunders

      Saunders

      Yeah, it's sad to see. SBNation was a daily visit from me for a long time. But once Bill Connelly left, it went downhill. Their "relaunch" as the Banner Society was a huge dud for me, because it was basically a website version of Shutdown Fullcast, which is just awful.

    2. BigRedBuster

      BigRedBuster

      I never knew there was a link between Vox and SBNation.

    3. Xmas32

      Xmas32

      Haha @Saunders the Shutdown Fullcast is definitely an acquired taste.  It's like pro wrestling mixed with....madness and college football.  PAPN with Bill C and Godfrey was the best CFB podcast by miles (although Bear and Stanford Steve are pretty good if you're into gambling) and I'm frankly a little pissed that Connelly doesn't have a dedicated podcast.  The new PAPN is still pretty good but once you've had the best, anything else is a downgrade. 

       

      Honestly, I wouldn't be shocked to see The Ringer snatch up the SBNation team.  The Ringer is pretty light when it comes to CFB and they seem to be willing to let people run loose a little bit.  The Ringer just signed the Cespedes Family BBQ guys (who are hilarious) so they're willing to acquire talent for sure.  

  12. Quantum Leap is coming back! Will be a continuation of the original, with Raymond Lee playing the new lead. 

    1. GSG

      GSG

      I think it's Raymond Lee

      Dude, that is cool!  That show is basically a writers wetdream.  

  13. I had Covid last week, and the worst I felt was watching that tire fire of a game on Saturday.

      First time with it?  I think for those of us on round 2 or 3 it gets easier. No promises tho 

    2. Cdog923

      Cdog923

      @krc1995First time, luckily. Not terrible, either; I got boosted at the end of July too, which probably helped quite a bit.

  15. Mike Leach passed away last night.

      I AM FOOT FOOT

      One of my favorite coaches, his interviews were epic 

    2. admo

      admo

      Leach was a highly intelligent coach.....   but also, an original human being that did things in his own way, which happened to be viewed differently in other's opinions and views...... 

       

      He was a great person, and so GREAT for the sport.  He will be forever loved and missed.

       

      RIP Coach

      Craig James is involved in this some how.

  16. Anyone have a TL;DR on why Hail Varsity is ending publication?

    1. Xmas32

      Xmas32

      https://hailvarsity.com/magazine/one-devaney/

       

      I'm trying to read the tea leaves but I'm guessing that circulation is down, costs to produce the magazine are going up and the usual stuff. They just opened up a new sports bar not too long ago, I wonder if they made a calculation and decided to allocate their funds there?

      Aaron Babcock left the magazine for a gig in Alabama covering the Crimson Tide back in March. I knew subs were down. It's tough making money in the print industry these days.

       

      I just hope everyone over there lands on their feet. Erin is one of my favorite Husker journalists, and Jacob has always been cool covering Husker Volleyball.

      Is the online stuff staying the same and being co-opted by Hurrdat?

  18. Just finished The Wire. I really, REALLY hate Greggs.

      Also, Season 5 was a massive letdown compared to the previous 4. Seasons 1-4 are masterful.

    2. Savage Husker

      Savage Husker

      Season 2 was not my favorite, 5 had potential to be great but I think it fell flat as well, however season 4 was incredible and could have overshadowed 5.

  19. Seriously: f#*k Baylor.

  20. I totally did not know that Mike Welch was no longer on the radio in Lincoln.

    1. knapplc

      knapplc

      He's been gone since June, I think. The new guy, Brett Kane, is pretty good. He and Bock seem to play off each other pretty well.

    2. Hoosker

      Hoosker

      I don't think Kane is too bad, but I kinda miss Welch. I'm glad Bock is getting more air time. He doesn't have a great radio voice, but I think he makes good points when he chimes in.

  21. I'm having an awfully difficult time getting Riled up today.

      watching clips of his post game presser is painful. Appears he's trying not to cry.

  23. It's been over 12 hours, and I'm still convinced the Chiefs were drunk last night.

      Alex Smith will be a very good trade in the 2019 offseason.

  24. This new 30 For 30 on the Celtics/Lakers rivalry is fantastic.
