      I'm sure the Mafia has given out more than 2 "heart attacks"

    3. Foppa

      True. But still incorrect.

      Wow! $1000 for two hits? This economy is even hurting the cleaners

  2. Without looking at the totals beforehand, what youtube music clip would you say has the most hits? I picked Disclosure's 'Latch' and it had 27.03 million. Enlighten me.

      92 mil for Guns N' Roses Sweet Child O' Mine. I thought it'd be up there but not the top..

      Nirvana's 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' just a touch under 134 million.

      @walksalone: Yep, it is. And she is. USA team is pretty good, it'll be fun to see how far they can go. Probably only Canada stands in their way.

  3. Hypothetically...if you saw one of the P.O.S.'s that bombed Boston, and you shot and killed them in cold-blood...what are the chances a court would convict you and sentence you to life in prison? Just wondering.

      Most of my "hypothetical" questions come after I've already done the hypothetical lol.... do you have something to share with us? I know how to drive a backhoe...

      If you were one of those cops in Boston last night, I'm pretty damn sure your first concern wasn't to "detain" your suspect.

      yes, because fan involvement in Husker football is a real issue right now.

  4. So if you had to choose only one, which show would you listen to? Sports Nightly, Sharp and Benning, or Unsportsmanlike Conduct?

      Right now, probably Sharp and Benning. USC doesnt have the same chemistry it used to with Bishop and for the rest of the month at least, Jay Foreman.

    3. Foppa

      Foppa

      I'm not trying to judge, but is there no Lincoln people on here? Nobody for 'Sports Nightly?' Not that the 'city' thing matters, but I think 1620 has went completely downhill.

      I only listen to radio before/during work so S&B is the most convenient, and I think Gary and Damon are the best pair in the biz.

  5. While skyping my parents, they asked me if I had heard about the latest school shooting (They're older and don't always realize internet, instant news around the world, etc). I said "yeah, of course." My mom then asked me if they had those sorts of tragedies here in New Zealand. My wife and I said "No. But guns aren't legal here." After hanging up, we couldn't even think of a time here where there was a gun-related shooting.

      The courtesy of your hall is somewhat lessened as of late, Theoden, King.

  6. Food for thought. I'm neither pro-gun or anti-gun...but the ex-cop who is on a murderous rampage in Cali was trusted to protect people with assistance of a gun. He obviously bought a lot of them as a citizen. How many people do you trust that can pass a federal background check? Or is this half the reason why everyone is buying a gun?

  7. Not siding with anyone...and I hope everything goes ok with EZ-E and his friend...but that said...this is a message board. Just tell people if you want support or help. Nebraskans are really good about that. That's one of the great things about being from Nebraska.Otherwise, I doubt most people are going to miss anyone if they don't show up for awhile to post.

      Ok...re-read what I posted, put your bitterness and hatred behind you if it's possible...then re-post. Or...don't, since it'll probably only get worse. I basically said I'm supporting both people, but looks like the lynch mob rules :/

  8. So pissed. Trying to get my Kiwi wife citizenship. We left one thing out, had to file an appeal (and added what they wanted). 8 months later, immigration says they can't make a decision. Now it goes on to their 'supervisor', who will probably spend another 8 months to a year to make a decision. But hey...11 million illegals get in automatically. F-tards that bomb our cities get in. What a great system.

      I think he will be judged if he's willing to admit that 1982 pass was out of bounds AND that the ball was not caught for a TD but indeed trapped.

      Bourne Legacy, especially since Damon said he still wants to do future Bourne movies, and this movie just shows the audience how far down the rabbit hole goes. That, and a potential Damon/Renner team up would be great for the series.

      Oh, we don't suck that bad. We're far from the top tier but we have a decent enough team to make things interesting and make the national team fun to follow.

      Can't argue that. Top Gun. A Few Good Men. And his role in Tropic Thunder was amazing.

  19. So due to an upcoming blood test for the fam on Saturday, it's 'healthy food week' at the Foppa house. Dinner tonight was Tofu Stir Fry. Someone please kill me now. Never mind, I'll just starve to death. If anyone has any healthy recipes that has taste and doesn't make you want to slam your head against the wall to fall asleep to kill the hunger pains, feel free to post.

  21. Question: Being abroad, how do you listen to the Jim Rome Show? I don't want to pay for his archives, and all the local radio internet feeds won't play it live. Please don't respond with 'Jim Rome sucks'. I know some of you hate him. But I like his show, especially during football season. Not finding much info on his website. Thanks.
