  1. I would imagine that these weights are averages. They probably weigh the guys after every workout and/or practice and average them out at the end of the week, or something.
  2. If they live up to their potential, this front seven could easily be the best we've had since 2010. That's an enormous if, though. I believe that the defensive line will meet those expectations, but that linebacker corps still has me fairly worried.
  3. LeBron is headed back to Cleveland. The prophecy is coming true.

      I suppose all the hardcore Cavs fans will act like nothing happened. Those scathing comments and death threats were just silly jokes. lol

      Fun times in Cleveland today!!!

  4. Santos is horrible, what is this writer smoking? He's not horrible, but he has been pretty underwhelming. I think we can chalk that up to the fact that he played out of position for most of last season, but you never really know. I think he'll be a lot better once he's on the outside and Michael Rose or Bando is on the inside. Santos gets lots of tackles for being to slow to stay with his guy in coverage. I can't recall all the times I saw a HB run a in/out route from the back field and find himself wide open against Santos. He's definitely bad in coverage. Santos is a good run stopper, though. If you can find a way to mark his deficiencies in the passing game, he could be pretty good.

  6. Took some shrapnel to the foot last night, you guys. It's not looking good.

  7. Trying to cut my own hair. This might not end well.

      I have been cutting my own hair for a number of years now. I like to cut it every 2-3 weeks, so I am too cheap to pay $20 every time to get it done.

  8. How soon people forget Presidents like George W Bush, Jimmy Carter, and Tricky Dick.
  9. Yes, the President has reached quite often during his time in office. What President hasn't, though?
  10. Tumbling is not allowed at the academic level anywhere in Nebraska. Can't do it in high school or college. It's the result of a Nebraska cheerleader getting seriously injured during an acrobatic move.
  11. No, because we actually have a history of using the "NU" moniker. Hell, it was on the helmets for a while. It's not like this is some new thing.
  12. Can't say I'm too excited about the Bulls getting McDermott.

      If Doug can be half of what Kyle Korver was, I'll be more than happy to eat my words.

      Defends a little bit, way more athletic than people give him credit for, can create his own shot, he has some back to the basket game, super High IQ guy. Fits Tib's system to a T. Love this pick! Way more versatile than Korver. Korver does one thing and one thing well. Dougy McBuckets does many more

  13. We got out of the group of death. Who woulda thunk it?

      Not me, either.

  14. I think this is accurate. I've also thought of Jahvid Best Hopefully not as injury prone, though.
  15. I think Ameer will be a Shane Vereen-type player in the NFL.
  16. Terran is a beast. If he can work on his basketball IQ, he could go somewhat high in the NBA draft.
  17. I have a very good friend who was a starter that season, and there was absolutely no excitement from anyone on that team for that game. The coaches tried and tried to get this team ready, but facing a team you already throttled, our players felt it was a slap in the face from whoever decided the bowl games. This isn't exactly verbatim of what was said to me after the game, but close to it. It was most definitely a bummer for our fans to lose that, but I wasn't even excited about that game. You should have seen the team at the banquet the Holiday Bowl held for both teams. I've never seen a sadder looking group of guys eating expensive-ass food and getting free stuff.
  18. They are stupid, but I guess they're not too bad if they get people off their asses. Unfortunately, people always want the easy way out when it comes to fitness.
  19. Portugal looks like straight ass. If the US can beat Ghana tonight, our chances of getting out of the group are pretty good.

      They're in a bad way. Pepe won't be able to play against the US and one of their other starters went down with an injury. Ronaldo didn't even look interested.

      Ronaldo wasn't interested, the game was over even before the red card. That won't be the case against the US. And they still have better quality than we do, regardless. It's not going to be an easy game, and it's not a game the US should be outright expected to win.

      I just have a feeling that Portugal is about to pull a France, circa 2010.

  20. My first phone was some Nokia brick that my parents got for free as part of a new contract. I ruined that thing by taking it with me while I detasseled.
  21. Awesome. The first one was one of the best Rome mods, so this gets me excited. Rome has got to be one of the best games ever made. Endless possibilities with that game.
  22. This one is a head-scratcher. There's no problem with forcing them to accept non-Christian members, but the leadership should be Christian. Having it otherwise would be like having a Democrat run for President on the Republican ticket. Makes no sense.
  23. Everyone knew it would come to this. So unfortunate. This is why you don't let nutjobs do their thing. Especially heavily armed nutjobs.
  24. I'm a dead ringer for Dale Earnhardt, Jr., according to my barber's kid. I guess I should take that as a compliment.

      I heard from barber's kid that a smart bomb is about to drop. Stay tuned.
