  1. That is really funny, but it's easy to hate on Lebron.... That video could be made with literally every player in the NBA....
  2. Umm... No um yes. The Spurs were pretty much getting all the calls and they choked on the free throw line. We're u not watching the end of the game? Lots of non calls especially on manu's drive to the basket That was a good no call.... He was reckless/out of control going into the lane. The Bosh block to end the game was NOT a foul, as most have said on the internet/t.v. A ref isn't going to let a call like that end the game, and he shouldn't...
  3. The system did benefit him as you said, but not the same way the systems do at Hawaii/SMU, or Houston.... He was putting up impressive numbers against some of the best teams in the country.... Again, I'm not trying place him on college football's Mt. Rushmore, but he is deserving to be on this prestigious list....
  4. I don't think anyone is voting for Tebow over Sanders. I'm just saying that I thought Tebow was a fantastic college QB, who was second to none when it came to leadership.... Stats don't tell the whole story in college football. If they did, Frazier wouldn't be anywhere on this list either.... Even if they did he was one of the most statistically prolific quarterbacks ever. I feel that the incredible amount of undeserved "NFL" attention Tebow has received, has in some way tarnished his incredible collegiate career....
  5. That'll be pretty cool.... I didn't buy last years game (I think its the first year I've never purchased), so how does the zone read work? The year before last it sucked video game ass....
  6. St.PaulHusker, (It won't let me quote your post for some reason). I guess that's what I'm saying.... Mack isn't a bad, coach. In fact, he is probably a good one. Top notch, however? I would say not even close.... There are a number of coaches who I think would do a heckuva lot better than him with the resources he has....

  8. Couldn't disagree more.... But, either way he there is no way he gets past this round....
  9. Good thing this is based on college careers!
  10. Tebow should be higher than the 64 seed, but Sanders wins this easily....
  11. Sam McKewon is just fantastic.... I would love too read him write about Husker Football for the rest of his career, but he seems to be destined for great things in the world of journalism....

      Yeah, he's the tops among Husker sportswriters. Definitely.

  12. Who are the local/weekend hackers that are playing this course.... Looks mean!
  13. Very excited about the way our current coaching staff has been recruiting.... Remember when a lot of folks were worried about the recruiting ability of this unproven staff?
  14. I agree. I've never seen a course that roams on both ends of the spectrum when it comes to difficulty from hole to hole.... It allows some easy (real easy) scoring opportunities, but the harder holes will likely take those away.... It looks like (-2) could win the tournament....
  15. Just because you've never won there doesn't mean it sucks. Oh relax, don't get butt-hurt.... We're not leaving...
  16. I think with the higher star kids a lot of times you get higher star attitudes, meaning kids who think they are more talented than other kids and who think they deserve to start over others. Though not all high star kids are like this, it is common. Bo has always been a guy who wants to play his hardworking/disciplined/coachable kids. He expects the higher talent kids to work just as hard as the lower talent kids. If you look at our history with 4stars several have left the program because they thought they were good enough to get more playing time elsewhere (i.e. Aaron Green, Braylon Heard, Brion Carnes, Tyler Moore, Ryan Klachko, Chase Rome, Dijon Washington, Todd Peat, etc). If a four or five star kid comes in and works his butt off and follows the team rules and shows discipline off the field then Bo will start them over the lesser skilled player who does the same. So to answer your questions... I don't think that is the goal with all our recruiting, but I do think it tends to play out that way depending on kids attitudes and stuff. That's exactly what I was thinking. Of course I want the all-American talent with the all-American work ethic, but this day and age that seems harder and harder to find. I just feel like Bo thinks he would rather trade a little talent for better work ethic than the other way around. Bo has consistently said he is looking for the right kid to fit the program....5 star player or not, if Bo don't "like" you (or your character) you probably don't get an offer....
  17. I like the "country club" feel of the Big Ten.... There is an arrogance among all members of the B1G, and whether "we" are or not, we always seem to believe we're better than everyone else.... I like it here....
  18. my grandpa had a stroke in '99. Haha.... First time in a long time I laughed out loud (lol'd?) on here.... Nice Dick! His Gpa has a stroke and you giggle like a little school girl! Clearly he was making "light" of the situation himself.....
  19. Guy is a big klutz. He got no game. Manu stunk up the place too. Combine that with the 3 Heat stars all having good games and Parker disappearing in the 2nd half and the Heat win 99 times out of 100. But ... but ... LBJ's block of him was like the greatest play in the history of basketball... It was a nice block. But that guy is just awful. I saw a lot of nice blocks last night. And D Wade make it look easy on the offensive end, just like MJ used to. There's a degree of artistry to his game. Why? Because he plays smart and understands how to get good looks at the basket. James just ram-rods his way to the hoop and forces it. Kobe did this a lot too. sh#t even Bosh looked good last night. I've never been real impressed with that guy but he finally played like he was 'big' for once. Here's a topic of discussion: If Scottie Pippen went against Lebron, both in their primes, would Scottie shut him down on the defensive side? I think yes. Scottie was one of the best defenders I've ever seen. He was great in the post, great on the wing, the master of clogging passing lanes, he could do it all. I think if you paired the Bulls vs. Heat like the following: Wade on Jordan, James on Pippen, Bosh on Rodman the best match-up in favor of the Heat would be Wade and Jordan. I think Wade would put up some points there. I think Rodman would completely dominate Bosh and Pippen would frustrate the hell out of James. James may get 20 points, but that's about it. Thoughts? Pippen was a fantastic defender, and one of my all-time favorite players. BUT, he never seen a physical specimen like Lebron.... I'm sure he would hold up well, but he wouldn't shut him down consistently.../
  20. Was that overboard? Probably..... Anyways, that was a fun game last night. It's good to see Wade, and Bosh finally show up and decide to play in this series. If they contribute it opens things up for Lebron. If the Heat continue to play with that kind of consistency and aggression they will win this series....

  22. Just bought myself a brand new 2013 Chevy Silverado a few months ago... Black, Black tint, Black rims. It is what the homies would call "Triple Black"....
