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

      I'm with Foppa. If you own a gun and allow your kids to get their hands on it. You should be prosecuted as well. I don't know what's wrong with kids today, but it's scary.

    I'm going to sleep knowing that tomorrow I'm watching after my son (fine, normal) my niece (that's ok, she watches cartoons for the most part) and my wife's nana (needs things every moment of the second) Pray for me.

      I figured it was some kind of sports award. I would have needed 15-20 guesses to come up with the Stanley Cup. Had no idea it's been around that long.

      From the minimal evidence Ive seen he looks pretty damn guilty and they have more evidence than whats already been shown. Dude has some sort of egomanical syndrome.

      maybe he did it on purpose...not like he gets to hold a presser and give his thoughts on the situation. I think it was intentional but maybe Im giving him to much credit

      Funny how this is news. What would people expect? Proclaim his guilt? Now that would be something.

    Very excited to see Joel Sartore here in Auckland!

    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.

      @The Dude: That thought process is why the US is in trouble. @NUance: I was there over Christmas, but I lived there for 11 years including UNL, and I have no desire to ever live there again...at least as long as I can stream all the Husker games anywhere on the planet haha

      The US can handle themselves...for now. And as an American, I want all my friends and family to be as safe as they can. But there's a big problem when you think you're 'the only country that matters.' Google 'hegemony'.

    Hilarious. Denver fires George Karl, who led the Nuggets to the best regular season they've ever had, with basically a bunch of no-names. And then when they lose their best 'no-name' for the playoffs, that's grounds for the penny-pinching idiots in the front office to sack the coach that couldn't get the team past the 1st round.

      100% agree that it's a stupid move, but it shows initiative by the front office that they are trying to win a championship. he is 1-10 in playoff series; that is pretty poor.

      Meanwhile, the SEC discusses the possibility of paying players an extra 4000$/year. Epic hypocrisy.

      I got paid $4k a year for my education. Eventually, I paid it back with interest.

      How the f#*k is this about 'knocking a kid off. WTF is wrong with this country? We bitch about terrorists and want to kill them all, yet when it comes to a little kid getting a nice moment in a hellish life, everyone just turns evil because, oh yeah, sports is more important.

  23. Foppa

    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.

    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.

      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.

      I think he's older bro. Foppa, two questions. Do you live in NZ, and if so, have you ever been to Mordor?

    3. Foppa

      Foppa

      NBL is the pro basketball league for New Zealand and Australia. Corey is Tai's older brother. Tai also played on the team, but didn't play in the finals. Yes, I live in Auckland. And I have been to Mordor...when I watched LOTR on my sofa in Denver when I lived there.
