I Hereby Pledge...

[knapplc]

In the next two weeks we could either sit here and gnaw the bones of our collective frustration, or we can do our best to focus on the positives of being a Husker.

 

Whether we are Pro-Callahan or Anti-Callahan, the vast majority of us are Husker Fans. This internal bickering is pointless. T.O. will do what he will do, and then we can all talk about it.

 

For my part, I pledge to stop posting negative things about Bill Callahan. Like him or not, he's not the "enemy." He may or may not be a good fit for this program, but I fear that if we spend two weeks debating on his fitness for the job, we're going to delve even further into such levels of negativity that we could do great harm to our mutual love of this team.

 

So here's my pledge:

 

I hereby solemnly pledge to stop bashing Bill Callahan, Kevin Cosgrove, and/or any other current or former Husker Coaches through the end of the regular season of 2007.

 

I further pledge to wait for whatever action the Athletic Department is going to take before jumping to wild conclusions regarding possible coaching changes, lack of changes, or any developments therein.

 

Finally, I pledge to be respectful of my fellow Husker Fans, recognizing that on Game Saturdays they all wear the same Red that I wear, and that if we were all to meet for a beer (or soda, for the underaged) that our discussions would likely be friendly, not aggressive like they tend to be on the anonymous message board.

 

Signed:

Sorry, not going to happen. I believe that this is the forum for giving my oppinion of BC and his staff. Just because I love the Huskers does not mean I have to have blind devotion to the coaching staff.

 

[knapplc]

That's cool.

[BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA]

Agreed. It will help me cut down on TUMS for a few days.

 

On a semi-related note my wife and I were at Nebraska Furniture Mart last night wearing our Nebraska sweat shirts and one of the warehouse workers couldn't believe we were still wearing them. Not sure if he wasn't a Husker fan or whatever but that was a little surprising.

 

[cmb23]

Yeah. Sorry. I'll cheer for my school, I never WANT them to lose. But I couldn't care less if anything good (career-wise) happens to Callahan, Coz and Co. from now on.

What?!?!? Why in the world would we take off our Husker gear? Now, when the chips are down, is the time to show our support.

 

What a weird thing to say!

Great idea, but if that happened, I think that many of the posters here would have nothing of interest to say.

Good idea, I'm N.........

[NU fan in Denver]

You said for the rest of the regular season right? So if we get smoked by CU I can come back and call him a few choice words, especially if TO hasn't canned him yet.
