Polarhusker Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Article sums it up perfectly. http://nocoastbias.c...ough-the-maize/ Read this the other day, it was pretty good. I'm Cleti or Cletus but with some 24-7 mixed in. I don't listen to any anonymous posters (Message Board Mafia) that keep saying they have inside information. (If you can't sign your name to it, it's just BS). Quote Link to comment
HuskerInLostWages Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I'd guess i'd be considered a part timer according to this site. I was born in Nebraska but never attended UNL. I went to Creighton for my first 3 years of college and still supported NU football, but moving to Vegas for my freshman high school year through senior year only to return to play soccer at Creighton, then transferred to UNLV(almost tranferred to York and was given the chance to do so but decided against it) after I tore my ACL for the first time, I supported both Creighton and UNLV in basketball. I would never ever support any other team in football and would never be caught dead in anything but a UNL football jersey. The only other jersey's I wore were the soccer jersey's for Creighton and UNLV. I would never root against the big red, but I would also not be one to not complain about the short comings i've seen over the last few years with UNL football. I was born a UNL football fan and shall die one. just my 2 cents 1 Quote Link to comment
The Maudfather Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Obviously not a reliable article. A real husker article would have used "Debbie Downer" instead of her fugly, hunchback cousin...the "Negative Nancy". Quote Link to comment

Polarhusker Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Hedley's a dumpster fire fan. Well, he's not the only one. we have a sh#t load of them on this board. Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Meh, those are pretty good descriptions of SOME fans but I fail to believe that list accurately describes any majority. Sounds about right for most message board posters but doesn't begin to cover the predominant "average" fan type. Quote Link to comment
skersfan Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I have family ties to the University, going back a long long ways. Love the University, and gained my love for Nebraska football from my grandfather. I support the University, but I would say more of a part time/blue hair fan. I love college football, and will watch just about any and every game I can. I am more into the game than I am into winning and losing. We are going to the Rose Bowl and to the Fiesta Bowl, where I will wear my Nebraska stuff, but will be cheering for Wisconsin and Kansas State. I would have liked to seen Coach Snyder win a MNC in his life time. Nebraska football will always be my first love though. Quote Link to comment
clyde40 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I'm a mix between part time and 24/7. I guess we'll call it a 3/4 fan. I wear my Husker stuff around ISU's campus all the time and have some Husker FatHeads in my dorm. However I do support the Cyclones a small amount and go for South Carolina at the CWS just because they have the funniest shirts and you can make the best jokes sitting in the outfield enjoying the game.

B.B. Hemingway Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I'm 24/7 for sure.... All Husker/All the time.... Quote Link to comment
ladyhawke Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Not Husker born or Husker bred but when I die I'll be HUSKER DEAD!! I'm a transplant from Missouri but I've lived in Nebraska longer than I ever lived in my home state. SO! I am a 'grafted-in-by-marriage' Husker fan! I've been following them do or die since 1983! GO BIG RED!!! Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Don't really fit into any one category. At different times I can be a 24-7, a Cletus or a Message Board Mafioso. And I guess I'm headed toward being a Blue Hair too. We all are. Quote Link to comment
Walleye Hunting Husker Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I would say 3/4 as well. I cheer for Nebraska in every sport but I still follow other programs Quote Link to comment
grandpasknee Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Hmmmm, not really sure. Born and raised in Nebraska. Alum. Used to be so attached it would truly ruin my week until at least wednesday if we lost. Have matured. LOVE all things Husker, with perhaps the exception of tiddlywinks, but mostly football. Still bleed red on Saturday's but my life doesn't change with a win or loss. I get involved in some Message board nonsense, but mostly out of boredom than actual belief that my thoughts really matter. And yeah...I do imbibe in the Kool Aid quite regularly. 13 - 0 or 6 - 7...I will love the Huskers. Quote Link to comment
