So what did Nebraska get for its new conference alignment with the Big Ten? Cookies. In a touching gesture (single tear), the Northwestern athletic department sent Nebraska's entire athletic staff cookies, each with a logo of a Big Ten school, to welcome the Huskers to their new conference. Altogether now: "Awwwww!" Here's the pic: http://twitpic.com/5jl4e3 Quote Link to comment

SnowBigRed Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Probably laced with laxatives. 2 Quote Link to comment
huKSer Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 NOW I know why Nebraska lost to Michigan in the tradition battle. NW was sending us extra cookies that we couldn't clear. Quote Link to comment
AK-47 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I'm glad to see that Northwestern didn't write out "IOA" on the Hawkeye's cookie because that would have looked weird, what with NW always getting the W... Also go ahead and eat up the NW cookies, but if Kirk and his gang send cookies don't eat them. They will make your kidneys fail. Okay. I'm done with my corny (albeit humorous to me) Hawk-bashing for today. Quote Link to comment
