GOOD ONE!!!

NICE ONE!!!!

This list wasn't meant to offend anyone, I am just trying to have a little fun. If you are offended, then you are probably taking yourself a little too seriously. I am making fun of myself with a few of them. Feel free to add any of your own.

I was e-mailing Teach about this yesterday, and he said I should throw this in a HB thread. Huskers tailgates and games are great people watching, and you can probably turn it into a game of Husker gameday bingo, or a fun drinking game. Here are my favorite "types of people" at Husker games (in no particular order). 1. Jersey and Jorts guy (bonus if the guy is over 250 lbs) 2. Hot jersey and jorts girl 3. Anyone wearing Husker gear with the old "Script" huskers logo - time to get a new shirt 4. Anyone wearing a non-Husker color (black and gray is allowed if it's Husker related) 5. Anyone wearing a shirt that you think is at least 10 years old 6. Anyone with red/white striped overalls 7. Anyone wearing a giant, foam Nebraska cowboy hat 8. An old guy with a hot chick at least 20 years younger (and it's obviously not his daughter) 9. Someone trying to start the "GOOOO BIIIIIG REEEED, Go Big Red" chant 10. The way too drunk woman who is at least 50 years old, bonus points if it's a woman over 70 11. Hipster Husker fan (new to this year's list) 12. Guy who insists on turning a game of catch with the football at the tailgate part into a game of precision "route-running" only his friend overthrows him and the guy runs into a tailgate party while he's looking up for the ball 13. Guy with a big nacho cheese or ketchup stain on his brand new Husker shirt (also known as my brother Doug) 14. Guy who is taking his cornhole game WAY TOO SERIOUSLY 15. Guy listening to the game with the old radio headphones 16. Guy way too excited for the band's pregame set (that's me!!) 17. Guy at the tailgate who is doing nothing but bitching about the team and coaches 18. Red blazer guy (I want to be that guy) 19. Guy who corrects you about your Husker history (that's me, as well) 20. Guy who can't get his TV setup at his tailgate (Teach)

If the ball is able to measure it's own MPH or distance/speed I would think that it can be used by coaches to see if the QB's arm strength has gotten weaker during games or throughout the season. There is probably a large amount of data that can be downloaded immediately that takes away the need to analyze game film for a long period of time.

I was at that Florida State game in 1985. I was a little kid and my parents let me and my brother use their seats because it was super hot and the game was on TV. After the Rathman long TD, NU couldn't do much on offense. I think NU struggled with QB play most of that season. EDIT: McCathorn Clayton and Travis Turner split time at QB in 1985. Neither was all that great. Steve Taylor ended up winning the job in 1986.

Also, just because a guy isn't voted a captain, doesn't mean that guy isn't a leader. Frazier wasn't voted as a captain in 1995, mainly because he was considered a complete a-hole. But, I don't think anyone would doubt his leadership skills on that team.

u froze it? amature. Yeah, I know it was a rookie move. I had bought a 4 lb brisket, but didn't need to cook all of it, so I had to freeze half of it.

You can use Omaha.com and journalstar.com, you just need to clear your history/cookies/etc. after your free number of articles are gone. That somehow doesn't work on my iphone, because they are now blocking everything from my phone, which totally sucks.

It's pretty rare when non-Seniors are voted as captains. I know Ameer was voted one last year, but that's not very common.

Sounds good BRB. I have only smoked ribs a few times. I will put rub on them the night before (I also use the mustard method for the rub). I prefer spare ribs vs. baby back because the spare ribs have more meat (that's what she said). I know St. Louis-style ribs call to cut off the top meat section to make an even set of ribs, but I like to keep it on. That's some good meat there!!! I prefer my ribs dry vs. wet, but I do generally make a couple different BBQ sauces for the side. The sauce is a basic Sweet, Ketchup-based, KC-style sauce. But, I will usually make a spicier sauce, along with the sweet sauce.

I am calling BS on a few things: 1. your workout is just an excuse to look at hot moms 2. You will be drinking before the "end of the game" 3. Your phone will need to be recharged from all the tweets/texts we send you all day! 1. The hot moms don't get the gym on Saturday until later in the morning. 2. When I mean "end of game" I probably mean halftime. 3. I will end up throwing my phone away from all the tweets/texts you send me. Especially the one who isn't allowed near hot chicks.

Wake up between 5:30 and 6:00 AM, go to the gym for a quick work out. Get home and put out the Husker flag (Red with White N). Other than that, just hang out at home until game time. I have a brisket in the freezer that I may smoke up that afternoon for dinner. If I do that, I will probably smoke some wings to eat for the game. Since it's a 1:30 game my time, I won't have any beers until near the end of the game.

Nice to see Cotton get a captain spot. There were a lot of detractors of his when he was being recruited and given a scholly to NU. Now he's the clear leader of the O-line.

Curry went to high school just east of Fort Worth, so it's not a surprise he ended up at TCU.

The 2 teams have to petition the NCAA to wear a "Color" vs. "Color" game. UCLA and USC have been able to do this the past 2 years, as long as the 2 jersey colors were enough of a contrast. There is NO WAY the NCAA would allow Illinois to wear Orange while NU is in Red. I read Uni-Watch regularly, I a lot of Paul Lukas comments about is in a joking manner.

The site makes a lot more sense during game weeks. Their slideshows are hilarious.

If the tickets are given away for free, then how do you decide who gets them? Do they just sign up for their free tickets? There are going to be 12,000 students who will want the free tickets, but only with 8,500 available. Also, If the tickets are given away for free, the students are even LESS LIKELY to go to the game, because they didn't make an investment in the tickets. Then people would be complaining even more about pockets of empty seats. I did the math a couple weeks ago for a different thread. The $160 season ticket cost represents about a 6% annual inflation from 20 years ago (someone posted how much they paid in 1993). Based on average inflation that's pretty high, but it's probably lower than the average inflation rate for college tuition for the past 20 years.

You will be able to find tickets pretty easily before the game. For these crappy opponents, there will be plenty of options.

Hey, Dad, can I use your binoculars? These don't even work. I can't see out of them. Those aren't binoculars, son. They hold daddy's cough medicine.

Here's beanman during a break.

A few thoughts on Foster's move (be it temporary or permanent) 1. I commend Foster for taking the "team first" attitude and doing what it takes to help out the team, even if it may stunt his growth on the O-line. 2. Foster was most likely going to redshirt this year, and would have spent most of the year as a scout team O-linemen. His practice time during the season would have been mostly being an "opponent" for the defense. His reps with the real NU offense would have been minimal. I don't think this will hurt his future at O-line. 3. If Foster gets to the D-line, he does well at it, and he enjoys that position, he can probably stick there for the future. We have seen that we can't have enough bodies on the D-line the past few years.

Does this lawsuit go back 20 years? Does Creighton have a campus in Canada?

I was a busboy at an Omaha restaurant. I was 15 and think I made $5.25 an hour. That pay was well above minimum wage back then (early 90s). They worked me way too many hours and way too late at night for a 15 year old. After about 6 months there, I quit.

Players only have a finite amount of time to play at this level and make the most of their experience. If, for whatever reason, they believe another university is a better option for them, I don't think any of us have any right to say what they can or can't do. Sometimes, you have to be a little selfish. Plus, if he is transferring to TCU (which is now rumored) he stays in a BCS conference and goes to a school that is 30 minutes from where he went to high school. It's tough for these kids who go far away from home to stay at those schools if they aren't playing.
