BigRedfxtoy Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Offensive Line man are reffered to as "The Big Uglies". I'd say he lived up to it. I wouldn't want to fight him no matter what he is wearing. It's all about attitude and so is football. Link to comment

HUSKER 37 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Have you seen him without his makeup? ('Course I'm one to talk..I'm so ugly, My Mom encouraged me to grow a beard to cover my face when I was a teenager). Link to comment
helu4heisman Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 John Randall wore it for the Vikings for years. He was a beast!!! Link to comment

husker B-rent Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 well whatever the reason, I thought it looked ridiculously juvenile and was an embarrassment to the University. The Scarlet & Cream is a uniform, not a two-bit halloween costume. If I was coach I would say "you want to wear makeup go find yourself a transvestite bar or something...this is freaking Nebraska football." you can not be serious. can you? that is one of the weakest arguments i have ever seen. back when i still played ball, i wore face paint every game. A. it pumps you up. B. it looks bada*s C. it says you better not mess with me. D. imma scary mofo E...... F.......... G..............so on so on. really a transvestite? Link to comment
BaytownHusker Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 To the guy who said it was an embarrasment... Look in the mirror.. And I think there are a couple in the pros that still do it.. Or was John Randle the last?? Link to comment
UGAHusker Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I preferred Sheldon Jackson's nail painting bit. You line up against a guy with painted nails and you don't know what you're getting into. I think guys had second thought before they put a hand on him or before they patted him after a good hit.

AR Husker Fan Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Why did Matt Slauson wear mascara? Fuller lashes. Link to comment
Drowning_in_the_Sea_of_Red Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Why did Matt Slauson wear mascara? Fuller lashes. Longer, too. I don't mind it. I always saw it kinda like war paint when I was playing football. Link to comment
HuskerTrucker Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I thought goth was going out of style with kids today...he is a little behind. I think if your good, you don't have to have a gimmick thing like that to get attention for yourself. But hey...to each his own. Link to comment
BuzzardBilly Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 I'm good with a guy having a little face paint on to keep the reflection of the sun down or keep those black heads from festering or whatever. But this business of black streaming down your face like Alice Cooper or something is so gay. Sheeez. Can you just play football? It's freaking Nebraska, there's no need to dress up and draw attention to yourself like some kind of trick or treater. that is so gay. Link to comment

The dude freakin graduated so you won't have to worry about it so much. Like its been said, its not a big deal at all and no one but you thinks it downgrades a university. Tons of lineman in college football do it. Some of the "big uglies" on the O-line are just crazy...I would want to be intimidating if I was an O-lineman instead of a pretty boy...i'll tell you that much. Link to comment
JTrain Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 What a horrible thread. Why would you randomly bring this up over a month after the guy played his last game with Nebraska? Who cares why he did it? Maybe because he wanted to. Who is it hurting? "That is so gay." Are you 12? Link to comment
