Hammerhead

and he is bringing back the walk on program.  He stated that every Nebraska kid dreams about running out of that tunnel and the fact that kids like this bleed and sacrifice for the team! 

He definitely looked like he was gonna get emotional a few times,dude bleeds Nebraska.GBR

I noticed as soon as he was announced you could tell he was holding back the tears.  

Frost has been ours for 2 weeks unless he got swayed.  Looking like a lock now.

We are having a Frost signing party the evening he signs on the dotted line.. I have a $230 bottle of scotch that we will tap into

What time?  I'll be right over. 

Hang in there! I hope you can start putting some weight in that ankle in a couple of weeks!

Good luck, and give it hell!

I was in your shoes (pun intended) exactly a year ago.  Good mobility is a precious gift.  Hang in there.

There are quite a few fans that are out of line and showing their ugly side.  I suspect alcohol is involved in many cases.  Others just live and die with Husker football.  

You should have always been at that point.  The negativity and attacks are completely out of line and they help no one.  This board has become a cancer as well.  Disappointing to say the least, as I live away from the state and this was a nice place to come to talk to like minded folks.  

 Losing reveals true character. 

Actually, I don't pay much attention to the NFL anymore. The whole thing is too business like with a bunch of overpaid prima donnas. I barely make the time to watch my two favorite teams, Broncos and Packers, play every once in awhile. I watched all of about 5 minutes of the Denver game last night. I used to love the NBA and the NFL. I absolutely can't stand the NBA and the NFL does nothing for me. It's no longer a game played for pride.  There is no loyalty to anything except the mighty dollar.  The NHL is the only professional league I like. So I really don't care about Kaepernick or the NFL. And yes, I do think all of them should be more modest with their views. They play a damn game and get paid obscenely well for it. They should be thankful they don't have to really work for a living.

And I'm not pretending the NFL doesn't put the clamps on controversy when it comes to marketing their product. What responsible business doesn't try to maintain a certain image? I just really don't feel this is anything approaching collusion or even the league putting clamps on controversy. My gut tells me he might be getting a little more opportunity without this issue but I also don't feel it is the thing keeping him off a roster. I sure don't think it's some wide ranging, league mandated blackballing. Maybe the lesson is, if you're a bubble player then you better fly a little straighter and not act like you're indispensable because you are. I would do the exact same thing with hiring decisions in my business. If I had 10 people apply for one job opening and they're all about equal skill and experience but say one has a history of work comp claims, why in the world would I choose the guy that presents a possible liability? That's not collusion, that's just the way life works. It shouldn't shock anybody.

Yeah...pretending.  

Rob is awesome.  He and I talked about the Glory days for several minutes.

For those who are curious, it happened playing disc golf, of all things.  I was out at Seymour Smith after it rained and slipped and fell down a hill.  It wasn't pretty.

My 11 year old just got into Frisbee golf.  Never thought it as hazardeous.  I guess anything is really.  

My husband tore his Achilles' tendon a few years ago just stepping over a cord on the golf course to retrieve a golf ball! So weird how those things can happen to relatively healthy people!

You gotta at least call Greg Byrne and make him say no.  Nebraska can offer more money (shockingly, Alabama is 'only' paying him $900k) plus a chance to bring Nebraska back to glory.  Plus, his dad was the AD here...just spitballing.  I don't blame Del Conte for turning down the Texas job, talk about inmates running the asylum.

Maybe Del Conte could bring Patterson with him. Let's make it a package deal!

I would totally take that, but it sounds so unlikely.

just throw him the damn ball!

NUance, you are correct. Diet can wait man.

And wait, I shall!

Our Pizza Hut closed a few months ago....

I hate thieves.

Thankfully they didn't really do any permanent damage, they just ripped the center piece out and left it wedged against the shifter (pain in the butt to get it back in place, but it wasn't damaged). I noticed the other day that the top of the piece was popped out, so I wonder if they didn't try it another time and get spooked. Probably somebody in this apartment complex.

That sucks. I've had my stereo stolen from my jeep. Tough break, man. Could've been worse

I've seen a lot of people on Facebook posting that they're glad Iowa lost last night, and our own fans are commenting on those posts reminding us that Iowa beat us and we went 5-7 this year. It's like some of our own fans are taking every opportunity they can to talk negatively about the Huskers.

Then they're idiots, but correct idiots.

Through these gates...

Not.

Yeah they used the same 'run out of bounds run back in bounds play that we used on them. Of course there will be no question of whether it was legit or not with them.

I wish Tommy the best in the future but I hope we never have to see him take another snap. This is the first lost all season that I blame entirely on him. Where there some boneheaded calls by the coaches? Yes. Would they have even mattered or been called with mediocre qb play? No.

I was the only one in my pool to pick the Huskers to win. Well, me and some guy named Dr. Jelly Finger. (Really!) lol

Actually it was me. I've been wearing my Husker clothing for every game this year...until today. I broke the spell.

I suppose we can share the credit then, JJ. 60/40 in my favor sound good to you?

Agreed

On both statements

That way, it doesn't become an issue for Hillary durring the election

This is off the mark, when was the last time Notre Dame won a national championship? You don't think their fanbase wants to win right now?

It's not that it's been so long since Nebraska has won a national championship, it's that we're so far removed from what we had in 1995 that it hardly even feels like the same program anymore. Nebraska was synonymous with greatness in the 90's, and maybe even the early 2000s. Now our football program is the punchline of a bad joke.

I hear ya now, misunderstood your update. I agree completely.

I was on the Fire Pelini bandwagon too, but that was after 6 years.

1995 you say it like HB is the voice of reason.

Comparatively......it's closer

Low expectations always lead to good Iowa seasons.

Shawn, I really hope we don't do what you said we wouldn't do...

I thought he broke it. Funny how it looked like a fake leg after the injury.

They said he passed out from the pain...

Or Ezekiel. We're not picky. Help a buddy out. THX!

I'd be happy with just their fat quarterback. Cadillac Jones or something.

Lets see what happens when they sober up.

There's more than a couple of these rocket scientists posting on HB right now. Are severe brain injuries really this common?

Bo needed more time....fire riley after 1 game. makes sense to me. fwiw....Bo lost his first game at ysu today. guess it's time for ysu to fire him also.
