  1. Both my knee surgeries were free. Although I think I paid $12 for the pain killers. I walk and run now, so it must've been successful.
  2. Husker fans need to be Tarheel fans today as well. NC State is probably a step above NU in bubble talk.

      Who wouldn't be a Tarheel fan??!! Go Heels, and Huskers. Love them both!!

  3. It's probably not too off-the-wall, but as a kid I'd eat Velveeta cheese and sweet pickle sandwiches with butter. I wasn't very popular during lunch hours at school on days I brought those.
  4. Haha I tried the dartboard game at the restaurant Cherry Cricket in Denver, luckily I'm decent at darts because I was really worried I was going to hit 'peanut butter' BTW...best burgers ever if you haven't tried it. www.cherrycricket.com
  5. She kinda sounded like the landlord in the movie 'Kingpin' but with an accent.
  6. I second what redout22 said. Thanks for all the intros to the games, huskeraddict. Now get after it Huskers!
  7. yeah, that does not seem too high. and most do just have it on in the background. i usually am either asleep or doing stuff until 11:00am, then i just watch whatever games are on. i wonder how many people actually tune in for the general content, opposed to just having it for background noise or because they are interested in a particular segment. no one cares. I didn't even really care what the dialog was. I just think Dave Grohl is damn awesome.
  8. She sounded a little 'mature'. not mentality-wise, but '5-pack-a-day-wise.'
  9. Well...that's one way to get off a drug conviction. I'm sure he'll celebrate by finishing what he started. http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/meth-conviction-thrown-out-because-cops-were-too-efficient-n38736

      Not too bright of the cops. They should know the law. Also, the prosecutor could surely get him on something other than meth distribution. All kinds of laws on teh books for that stuff.

      Sounds like poor lawmaking.

  10. Well...that's one way to get off a drug conviction. I'm sure he'll celebrate by finishing what he started.

  11. Maybe not...but it might have helped (no) if I told her I was taller than Johnny Manziel
  12. EVERYBODY LOVES SUBWAY No. It's terrible outside of the U.S.
  13. Kina. Good luck finding it. Better luck trying to eat it.
  14. this makes sense. Maybe if I was calling the Breakers' head office (the professional team that Tai Webster's brother plays for) but there isn't any chance this lady has any connections to anything.
  15. Friday night games? Bad for recruits, good for (some) fans. Saturday 11am games? Bad for fans, bad for recruits.
  16. Must be...I was starting to wonder if I was trying to join an NBA team.
  17. Apparently Aaron Hernandez is making new friends in prison profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/02/25/report-aaron-hernandez-attacks-another-inmate-in-jail/?ocid=Yahoo&partner=ya5nbcs

      He'll go from Tight End to Wide Receiver in no time.

  18. why is "L" missing? what am i missing? Think of a girl's version of my name...or the Christmas song. You'll get it.
  19. Actually, they do. That's where I blew out my knee playing volleyball
  20. I got the clearance a couple of weeks ago from my doctor to participate in sports again after my knee surgery. Here in New Zealand, sports are pretty low-key unless it's rugby, or to a lesser extent, cricket. My wife got me a phone number of a recreational basketball league (I now refuse to play volleyball after that is how I demolished my knee). Notice I said 'recreational'. Obviously it's a bit paraphrased, but here goes...(We'll call her 'Julie') Julie: Hello? Hi, may I speak to Julie? Julie: Speaking. Hi Julie, my wife gave your number for information on the possibility of signing up to a recreational basketball league? Julie: Ok, yes, may I have your name? My name is Noel. Julie: Can I have your full name please? Yes, it's Noel _________. Julie: Do you have a middle name? Umm, yeah...*told it to her* Julie: So how much experience do you have playing basketball? Well...I've been playing since I was 5 and my Dad would take me to the high school gym and lift me on his shoulders to shoot it. Julie: I notice an accent. Where are you from? I'm from the U.S. Julie: (voice perks up) Oh! What team did you play for? I played for (my junior high and high school team) Julie: Oh. Nothing professional? No. Julie: *now sounding dejected* Well...what position do you play? I'm probably a 2 or a 3 guard. Julie: How tall are you? I'm 6 foot. Julie: What's that in the metric system? Sorry, I don't know. Julie: *looking up the conversion* *now sounding really dejected* Ok well, what's the best part of your game? I think I'm decent in transition, and I generally like making good passes more than shooting, but I can make a nice shot sometimes. Julie: What's the best game you've ever had? Well, I hit 5 threes in a row at Maranatha Bible Camp to win for our team. That was fun. Julie: A camp?! No...an actual team you played for. I thought it was an actual team. I played hard, wanted to win for me and the guys around me. I guess otherwise I scored 11 points in a game in junior high vs. _____ (A D-2 school). Julie: Are they a professional team? No. Like I said, I've never played professional basketball, so no. Julie: How's your health? It's getting better. Julie: What do you mean 'it's getting better?!' Are you sick? No, I've been rehabbing from a knee injury and surgery. Julie: (Now wondering why I've even bothered calling) OH. Has your doctor watched you play basketball and can sign off on your abilities? I'm sorry, what was that? Julie: Has your doctor watched you play basketball since your knee injury and surgery? Why would my doctor want to watch me play basketball? Julie: Well, so you could play proper basketball. I told her I changed my mind and was going to play bingo with my grandmother instead.
