  1. At the football game in Seattle we were on some Husker tour and took a boat to the game. While standing in line I was adding up how much cash I needed to pay for drinks and my buddy corrected my math. I said oops I guess I can blame my UNL education for that. Right in front of me Harvey Perlman turned around and gave me that trademark weasley look. I don't know how he has stayed around as long as he has.

  2. I am certainly not a huge fan of Ferentz, but he certainly represents our University a lot better than Pelini represents UNL. I'm just hoping that Kirk doesn't come up with a pure vanilla gameplan like he has the last couple years against you guys.

    maybe you think so. i am perfectly fine with how bo represents our program. but, i guess if you cannot beat us, just as well go for the character assassination. real class.

     

    So as long as Pelini keeps beating Iowa you're okay with him saying "F the fans."? Interesting.

    Considering that one minute rant had more intensity than Kirk has had his entire career, sure.

     

    I do wish Kirk showed more passion on the sideline, but he does show it at times when the camera is not on him. Mitch King (defensive tackle from 2005-08) has told stories of Kirk's emotion in the locker room and on the practice field. One story in particular is when Iowa was losing to Minnesota at halftime in 2006 Kirk came into the locked room and kicked the Floyd of Rosedale trophy. Not sure it was the smartest decision as I'm sure it was painful, but the talk that Kirk shows zero emotion is false. He just doesn't act like a clown on the sideline.

     

    Did he develop turf toe after this incident?

  3. Since I don't live in the glorious capital anymore, and the only "coffee shop" in my town sells warmed over folgers in a styrofoam cup (and also bait and liquor), I've started buying coffee beans from the Mill and grinding them at home. Prescott Blend and Guatemalan are my favorites. Definitely concur about the burr grinder.

     

    Also, on the subject of french presses, I use a travel press at work.

    Steal hot water from the teacher's lounge, keep a little tupperware container of fresh-ground coffee, boom.

  4. I just think they honestly thought Martinez was the best chance we had, what with everyone assuming (or deluding themselves) that he was healthy. The staff talked about Armstrong or Ron getting play time, but I'm thinking that was assuming we would crush Minny and pull Taylor in the 4th. When the domination never happened they desperately held onto him hoping he would turn it around and be amazing...which is also kinda indicative of how everyone felt about Taylor all the time.

  5. You could tell Bo was really choked up in the postgame about the effort our guys gave today.

     

    Yeah, my wife was choked up when she came home from shopping. I wasn't horse from yelling at the TV.
