  1. Happy birthday Bo. For your birthday I bought you a defensive coordinator.
  2. The "everybody does it" defense is code for "I have done it/do it, and it's no big deal."
  3. This is a pretty safe accusation to make. No proof necessary just "yes you were." It is 100% safe Just like it's 100% safe to say this theory is totally bogus. No proof necessary.

  5. I dunno, I do need to lighten up, I've taken stuff around here far to seriously recently. Apologies all around... Ever since you pulled your c$%k out, you've been acting differently. Yea I think it was about that time last week or so...It'll all be good after the bowl.... You know Kenny Bell is better than Alshon Jeffrey right? I mean you know that, right?
  6. Really? Read through the thread again Already read it. What do you think are the bad posts?
  7. You've been really serious lately. What's up? Did they fix the backdoor link into the Mod forum?
  8. I should have started in on how bad Russell Wilson is before telling him. But he would have figured it out if I had gone too far with it.
  9. Nah man. Nobody is crucifying him. He's a dumbass for what he did and he needs to own up to that.
  10. You don't need to go to rehab Badger. All you need to do is repeat after me: My name is Badgerfan and I am gullible. For a guy who does so much goofing around, your buttons are too easy to push.
  11. I'm curious. What's your motivation for making excuses for a guy who drove over the legal limit? "Everyone does it" is BS. Not everyone drinks too much and gets behind the wheel. We can all still like Caputo and wish him well and still think he's a dumbass for drinking and driving. You don't have to cover for him.
  12. Ball isn't worthy to carry Barry Sanders jock strap. You think people will forget Burkhead in a few years? Compared to Barry Sanders, neither Ball nor Burkhead will be remembered at all. On a scale of one to ten with Barry Sanders being a ten, Ball is a three and Burkhead a 3.5. And even then I'm being generous to Ball. The elephant in the room that nobody is talking about is Russell Wilson. Without a real passing threat this year Ball gets half the yards and TDs he has. He owes that trip to New York to Wilson's arm, #2 ranking at Pass Efficiency, and ability to run. Ball on Nebraska is Burkhead. Burkhead on Wisconsin is Ball. It's pretty even.
  13. Everyone going to survive three more weeks until the bowl game? After that it's eight months until the next game.

      Man...it feels like football just started a few months ago...

      Then those eight months are long.

  14. I didn't know that badger fan was the messenger for the rest of the country.
  15. I agree with this. Our last coach is a good example. Callahan isn't a very good head coach but he is really good at coaching offensive lines. He would probably make a good Offensive coordinator I guess. But not a head coach.
  16. You mean the talent that Mike Stoops helped recruit? If you don't like Stoops that's one thing, but you can't argue with his success as a DC. If you don't want Stoops who do you want?
  17. If they can have a bowl game in Boise we can have a bowl game in Lincoln. They could introduce runzas to the rest of the country that way.
  18. Because the NCAA allows it and monitors the gifts. They are only allowed to give so much of a dollar amount to each athlete. http://www.ncaa.org/...tes+can+receive Not only that, but I think the ncaa monitors gifts given to the players from their schools during the year and counts that against what they can get from the bowls. Like those gold pants the Ohio State players got have a monetary value and that counts against their bowl swag... or something like that. From the link it's sounds more like the institution can give an annual gift, that is separate from the bowl package. But the bowl package can have gifts from the institution and the bowl committee that both count towards the post season award, so together they couldn't exceed the limit. Funny how ncaa rules could be confusing. This group can give this gift and that group can give that gift, but only so much and no more and if you trade your gift for tattoos you're the worst person ever and there has to be a big investigation. But it's all a gift, and you're still an amateur, thousands of dollars later.
  19. Ha! So that's one example. How often does that happen? Not very often, right?
  20. Nobody is putting you down. I was giving you grief for your blog, but that's all in fun. I think it does matter where you heard it, because if you're hearing it from the local news in Billings Montana that's different than hearing it from the local news in Norfolk Nebraska. In Nebraska they're going to refer to him as a former Husker. They'll talk about him as a Lion anywhere outside Nebraska. Nobody outside Nebraska cares that he played here anymore. To everyone he is a Detroit Lion and an NFL superstar.
  21. If your'e going to write sports you have to know more about your subject. Mike Rozier is best known for playing pro football with the Houston Oilers, not the Falcons. He played in the USFL for years before the NFL, too. I don't know where you're hearing Former Husker Ndamukong Suh. You must be watching local tv or something. On ESPN it was all about the Lions.
  22. For myself (and likely many others) I'm ok with losing 2-4 games a year as long as the losses are competitive in the 4th quarter and we are rarely out-coached. Oklahoma's losses are better than our losses. When we lose we look like we never played football before. When Oklahoma loses they are usually competitive. When is the last time they got blown out like we did against Michigan and Wisconsin?
