  1. Damn, Collins and Gregory back together. Well not the first few games.
  2. Is the a cut at the University altogether by harvey? Because it sounds like he didn't enjoy it there at all.
  3. Yeah, he should. Because Reilly made everybody else on that highway share the risks of his poor decision making. Because Gregory was stoned only while walking? Or do you think he was behind the wheel of a car at some point too?Are you serious with this? Driving isn't nearly as impaired while high on marijuana as it is while drunk.Maybe the habitual smoker is a better driver, but for those that only dabble here and there, I'd confidently say they'd be worse than someone driving drunk at .15 Not to rain on any parades here, but there have actually been a lot of studies that have concluded being high from smoking weed behind the wheel isn't nearly as dangerous as being drunk behind the wheel. One of the main reasons is because stoners typically drive considerably slower than drunks. Stoners typically take less risks while drunks typically take more risks. I have to add that I really didn't know until yesterday. I read Moraine's post and thought it had to be wrong until I actually looked it up. i don't deny that, at all - when you're talking about the "stoner." For the recreational smoker, I would question that theory/study. The YouTube link below is a 5min video of a study on the effects of marijuana and driving. Is it just me or does Abby remind you of Venus Flytrap in WRKP in Cincinnati when they were doing the drunk test? i don't know who that is, but Abby still cracks me up. I watched this news clip when it first ran 4-5 years ago, she made me laugh then too. Do you have a link to who you're talking about? Damn, now I feel old. I was wrong though, it wasn't Venus but Dr. Fever who I was thinking of. Anyway, I am hoping this is the link http://www.hulu.com/watch/290 It is 20 some minutes long. I do miss this show.
  4. The other BTN channels normally ARE inactive. They only activate when there are multiple games, as overflow channels. Otherwise they are dead channels. If you have experienced NOT getting games when you know there are games on those channels, please let me know. It is something I need to look into. For instance: BTN might look like this on a weekend early in the season when no big games are on*: BTN: OSU/Western Michigan BTN2: Nebraska/South Dakota State BTN3: Illinois/Rutgers *Example purposes only. I have no idea what the actual schedules are. Usually BTN tries to schedule with as little overflow as possible, so those channels aren't usually showing anything. Thanks for the feedback. My one question is: Why don't they show other sports on the other channels. Would love to see Huskers Volleyball and Baseball on them along with some B1G hockey. It seems they are wasting those channels away when they are showing older football games on the main channel. Well it's "free" to re-air an event. It costs money to broadcast a live event. I'm assuming they don't see enough interest in it to go out and broadcast it.... I have been disappointed with BTN this year, FWIW. But I do know that it will guarantee every Husker game is televised, which is good enough for me. I understand your comment, but I have seen Husker Bowling on EPSN. If that low level of a college "sport" can make it on that high profile of a channel, I believe our Volleyball can peak enough interest along with some of the Hockey games.

    Fake ID Iowa

    Technically, they won 4 trophies this year. They won all of their rivalry games. And these are trophies that will never stay in their case. So they can enjoy them for 1 year.
  8. You say that they give you all the BTN channels, but do they ever play anything on the other 2? I have Direct tv with all the BTN channels and only 1 channel plays games, the other two are white noise. Am I missing something?
  9. Every time I see DONU and being retired military, I automatically think of Department of Nebraska University (and I don't want to have any Department of anything thoughts in my head).
  10. Damn he has a hot Girlfriend (atleast I hope that's what she is).
  11. After reading his stats, it looks almost the same as TA's (TD's vs Int), but hoping that our staff can teach him a few things that he might be lacking. Welcome to the Big Red Tanner.
  12. I'm hoping that KB is healthy this year to show what he has.
  13. Which Jackson. Lamar seems to know where he wants to go exactly. OT Jackson seems to want to be a husker but mom wants him close to home. Only guy demanding more love is fant Yes, sorry, it was Fant that I was thinking of. How I got Jackson out of that is beyond me. Where did Allen Commit to?
  14. Do we really want Jackson with they way he is going back and forth and demanding "more love" from the coaches? Just seems like trouble and be the first to jump ship if he doesn't get his way onto the field.
  15. Wonder why they are auctioning off the CB banner. You'd think they would hang that one up.
  16. So why even have Conference Championships if the PC picks a team that didn't even make the championship? If Oklahoma got an easier opponent and lost, it would be easier to say that they didn't belong there, but personally I believe they did and just crapped the bed at game time. IMO the playoffs has yet to fail and last year is proof. If we didn't have it, it would have been Alabama vs Oregon and again this year it would have been Alabama and Clemson (as it is) and still your Ohio State wouldn't have been even a forethought. Should Ohio State been in it? Sure, but as CH stated, they screwed up and lost the bid to go to the Conference Championship. Could you imagine if Iowa would have won the championship game? I am sure even more people would have been up in arms about it.
  17. I can see why they jumped Mich St over OU. IMO they did this because OU didn't play a Conference Championship game and also had a terrible loss to Texas. Both losses would have made them equal, but the Championship game put Mich St ahead of OU.
  18. Don't get me wrong, I hate all teams that aren't Nebraska. But when it comes to Non-conference and Bowl games, I am wanting our conference sisters to win. Why? Lets look at last year when Ohio State was being considered for the play-offs. Everyone was saying that they played a weak conference and shouldn't be in the play-offs. If it wasn't for the Big 12 Fiasco and had they picked the right team for the their champion, I believe Ohio State would have been out of the play-offs and this year they would be saying we are still weak. I read an article from ESPN that the author thought that the B1G was going to be the next Conference to take control because of last years bowl games outcomes. Now with this year coming to a close, we have Iowa, Mich St and NW that are blow-outs. This is looking bad for next year. Lets just say Nebraska does go win and are considered for the play-offs. If we as a conference look weak, we won't be considered if we are head to head with another team from a different conference. You simply cannot look at Nebraska's field, you must look at the grand schemes of things to plan for Nebraska's future.
  19. Wasn't he already committed to us before he received any other offers or am I thinking of someone else?

    5-7

    Well the 5-7 teams are 3-0 on bowls. Puts a new perspective on it.
  21. Welcome back and congrats on your new coaching staff. I would say sorry about your loss, but I had bet against you, so I needed that outcome. Looking forward to seeing what Richt can do for you next year.
  22. I understand the concept "It's their bodies, let them do what they want" concept, but to just as in the military, if the University is paying them (scholarships), it's technically the Universities body. They are the ones paying for Food, Housing, Training, etc., so they are the ones risking everything allowing the body to do what it wants. If the player doesn't like that type of rule, they can always give up that scholarship and go smoke all they want.
  23. Kaaya was only a JR this year I think? No a Soph. He was a freshman playing us at home
  24. I love it to, but you have to remember that UCLA sucks against the run.
