  1. Gotta love 60 degree temps in January. Son's baseball team was able to practice outside, and I fired up the grill for some burgers.

  3. My wife and I did 2 days of landscaping work at our house. Moved 2 tons of fill dirt, 2 1/2 tons of river rock, and 16 rolls of sod. Physical labor sucks, but it saved me about $2,000.

      I did landscaping yesterday as well. Used up 11 bags of mulch and got burnt too but it was all good since I was listening to the baseball game

      and now you need to purchase a new hip for $7500. Plus chiropractor trips for the next 8 years. Best of luck! Hah, joking, but it is great how much you can save with a little hard work. Hope it looks great for you guys.

      Very happy with the end results. I can deal with sore muscles for the next few days.

  4. Can we stop acting like Northwestern is a good team?  If NU loses to them it's an embarrassment.

      Fitzgerald is a "great coach" if he can get 8 or 9 wins, yet most seasons he is at 5-7 wins. 

    3. ColoradoHusk

      Northwestern wins when the other team makes mistakes. Unfortunately for NU, that's the type of team the Huskers have been since joining the Big Ten.

      “Can’t” lose this weekend? Me thinks somebody is way overestimating this staff’s clock management skills.

  7. Denver news guy Tweeting that Zac Taylor is being considered for the Denver Head Coaching job, and Gary Kubiak would be his OC with Gary's son, Klint (such an unstable name), would be the QB coach.

     

    Sipple also commented that if Taylor does get a HC job, that it's possible he may look for Greg Austin to be his O-line coach.  Not sure if Austin would be interested in leaving Lincoln right now, but that would be a nice gig.

      Zac's games against CU were some of the few bright spots during the Callahan era. However, most Bronco fans are not dedicated CU fans, so they wouldn't care. CU has very few dedicated fans of any sort. Also, Kubiak was not fired, he stepped down a year after winning the Super Bowl. I could see Kubiak coming back if his health has improved, and as a Bronco fan, I would like it.

    3. Atbone95

      Atbone95

      Kubiak wasn't fired, it was all health related. If he's feeling better, I'd take him back in a heart beat. I mean, it's not like he's been gone - he's been in the front office since stepping down. 

    4. RedDenver

      I didn't realize Kubiak was still around the Broncos - thanks for the info.

      Well, if it's as simple as a win is a win and a loss is a loss, it shouldn't matter which of those 2 you beat and which you lose to, assuming you have to split them. Just sayin.

  11. How can we get Riley and Langsdorf to convince Terry Wilson to transfer from Oregon to Nebraska? Would be nice to have Wilson competing for the QB job in 2018.

      I wouldn't be surprised if Wilson goes to UCF to play for Frosty. Frost was the lead recruiter to get him to Duckland.

  13. Guns N Roses concert in Denver was amazing last night. Slash still can bring it on the guitar, and Axl's vocals were way better than I expected. They put on a great rock n roll show.

      Bummed I missed GnR with Alice in Chains at Arrowhead a while back. Sounded like an awesome show, but was too leery of Axl pulling his usual antics and not showing up or something. Glad to hear it was a good show.

    3. ColoradoHusk

      ColoradoHusk

      Axl is a very good showman as a lead singer. Even way past his prime, he had a strong presence on the stage last night. I was expecting Fat Axl who wouldn't be able to complete a song, and I saw a 55 year old guy doing a pretty good job of rocking it for 3+ hours. He took a few songs off as the band would play instrumental covers, but he did a great job on the GNR classics.

    4. broganreynik

      broganreynik

      I've been waiting 18 years to see Gn'R in concert, and because of my previous employer, I've missed three concerts I could have gone too. I just hope they don't split ways again before I get another chance. Looked like it was a great show though!

      Good luck in the Big Sky with EWU, the Montana’s, Weber State, and the rotation of pop-up success from other teams. Beau Baldwin going back to the Big Sky doesn’t sit right with me, but he’s gotta do his thing. Ed will have his work cut out for him, I’m genuinely interested in seeing success from someone like him. 

    3. ColoradoHusk

      ColoradoHusk

      The local radio guys were commenting that UNC got a more big name and more exciting hire than CSU did.  I know McCaffrey only has high school coaching experience, but this generates more buzz than CSU’s hire did.

      @ColoradoHusk Dmac on the fan in Denver tried to speculate Luke will leave NU to go play in Greeley bc he is buried on the depth chart. It was really dumb.

      Correct, @HuskerInLostWages I did like how Spielman played.  He seemed like the one player out there who was giving a f*ck about the game.  I was wrong about my "garbage time" stats comment.
