NUance Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 kids taking the No-Drugs pledge at halftime of last year's Spring Game. Nebraska Youth Free To Do All The Drugs, Alcohol They Wantby Cobby on Apr 16, 2012 8:41 AM CDT in Cobby - Humor www.cornnation.com Every year thousands of Nebraska youth take the field at halftime of the annual spring game to take a pledge to say "NO!" to drugs, alcohol and tobacco. The pledge urges them to believe On my honor as a responsible student, I pledge not to use drugs, alcohol, or tobacco. I believe I can lead a better life by staying drug free and I further pledge to encourage friends not to use drugs, alcohol, or tobacco. I am strong enough to say "NO!" With this year's spring game cancellation, parents across Nebraska are worried that their children will no longer be held accountable by the pledge and therefore free to do all the alcohol, drugs, and tobacco they want.

NUance Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 "Holy sh#t, it's going to be 'Katy bar the door' time at St. E's emergency room", stated Terry Swanson, who has been an intensive care nurse at St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Lincoln the past 15 years. "We've known for years that when some kid freakin' out due to an overdose that he was one of those whose parents never took him to the spring game." Pretty much the whole state of Nebraska is ruined because of the canceled spring game. Way to go Dr. Tom and Bo. Way to go. Quote Link to comment

mnhusker Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 The only reason for the pledge is to keep Husker Athletes from heading off to Oregon, TCU, or the SEC. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 Lynn Wetzel wondered if her son Timmy would make it through the year alive. "Every year we go to the spring game, and every year we watch to make sure he's saying the words and not just mouthing them and crossing his fingers like most of those other hoodlums. God, I wonder what we'll do now....", she said with tears welling up in her eyes. I wonder how much the crime rate in Nebraska will go up due to this???? Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 This crap keeps and we're gonna be booted out of the Big 10 and into the SEC with the rest of the crooked programs. Quote Link to comment
Decked Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 This crap keeps and we're gonna be booted out of the Big 10 and into the SEC with the rest of the crooked programs. Maybe we can pay recruits without getting caught. Quote Link to comment
2ndNnine Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 The Northwestern game was kind of a bad day to quit sniffing glue. Quote Link to comment
