Hopefully the nightmare is over!
Actually I *do* know that calling anything in college football a nightmare is shallow… but I’m gonna stick with that term for now.
I supported Frank Solich and Bill Callahan to the very end… because I’m a fan of the team and the school no matter who is the coach. Plus it [...]

Tigers Love To Devour Corn, Apparently

October 7th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Bad day for all my teams.
Although I predicted that the 2nd most likely result would be a blowout Mizzou win… I’d rather be wrong than have my Huskers on the wrong end of a 41-6 game. NU’s defense was “as advertised” — bad. But NU’s offense was horrid… or MU’s D was great… not sure [...]

Huskers v. Tigers

October 6th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Well last week’s game with ISU was one of the strangest games I’ve ever experienced. The initial look at the stats would lead one to believe that ISU had a chance… but the game really wasn’t in doubt. Because the NU offense and special teams either turned the ball over almost immediately OR scored very [...]

Huskers v. Cyclones

September 29th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Nothing like a game against Iowa State to cure what ails your favorite team.
I’m sure I’ll have to eat those words in a few hours after the Huskers allow several ISU players to look like All-Americans. That’s just the way it is going to be this year.
Although I keep trying to get really upset at [...]

I would have thought this to be impossible… even if TRYING to do it.

Steamrolled

September 17th, 2007 · No Comments

USC rolled over Nebraska 49-31.
It went about as I figured it would go in my head… except that I thought it would be closer and I didn’t anticipate that Nebraska’s tackling would be so poor so I thought the score would be lower, too.
I’m not going to analyze the game… I’ve got other things to [...]

Been Waiting for this Day…

September 15th, 2007 · 2 Comments

for 364 days.
I also could title this post “My 1st favorite team this year and forever” if I were to follow the naming convention from this earlier post about my 2nd favorite team.
The fact is… I posted about my newly adopted 2nd favorite team and intended to post on my favorite team… the Nebraska Cornhuskers… [...]

My 2nd Favorite Team This Year

August 29th, 2007 · 3 Comments

I’m getting obsessed with college football.
And I happened to hear from a friend from way back… he works in athletic compliance at the University of Minnesota and bemoaned the lack of maroon and gold on my website.
I really appreciate Jim getting in touch with me and so I’ve decided to bring a little maroon and [...]

VBS and Sports and English Camp

July 29th, 2007 · 1 Comment

We’ve been enjoying our time with the CIY group (welcome to all the friends and family of those in the group!) and I thought I’d share a quick post about one thing they just helped with and another starting today.
We held a Vacation Bible School for the kids in our community (apartment complex) last week, [...]

2007 Tour de France

July 9th, 2007 · No Comments

I admit I struggle with this kind of post… I’m totally swamped right now… just back from TMF… the CIY group (of 15) here in 2 days… massive travel plans being made… budgets… emails to be answered… etc. But I can’t stop thinking of “Le Tour”. I wish I had the discipline to put it [...]
