Posted by: rollbigredroll on July 30, 2010 3:06PM CST Criminy- bring it already! This is the most anticipated season since, well...last year. I just want to beat Texas this year and win the Big 12. I'll take 4 losses if we have to- just get to the Big 12 and win it! Let's go out thumping these guys! ...and some hot cheerleaders this year would also be nice. I'm just sayin'....

Posted by: montanabirdhunter on July 30, 2010 3:23PM CST Thank You Geebus GBR!

Posted by: Fitzy on July 30, 2010 3:30PM CST This has been one of the longest off seasons since.... last year... and the year before.... and the year before... and so on. "ladies and gentlemen..... HUSKER FOOTBALL"!!! Let the competition begin. Bring the Pain-

Posted by: charger on July 30, 2010 3:30PM CST Power that's why the trolls think we are whiners. HaHa

Posted by: CBHusker on July 30, 2010 3:36PM CST About time! Pass the warm beer and cold pizza!

Posted by: charger on July 30, 2010 3:39PM CST I don't know CB bout the warm beer, ChadMO had some nice looking frosties. :)

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 3:44PM CST Power, i know it is not right, but Dagnadit, I want that game. Bad. OK had to get that off my chest.

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 3:48PM CST I will now return to my "Play well and execute the scheme and winning will take care of itsself" mode

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 4:06PM CST OK so I am a thread Killer.

Posted by: Huskerzone on July 30, 2010 4:21PM CST Waiting, panting, holding my breath until my season tickets come in!

Posted by: N_trepid on July 30, 2010 4:23PM CST Are Ricky Henry and Yoshi Hardrick completely recovered? How deep are they in the playbook? Who are the standouts from the summer conditioning program? How are our running backs looking? Yes, I'm ready for fall camp.

Posted by: CBHusker on July 30, 2010 4:33PM CST That's just Coachin' Bo. Angry Bo cracked the camera lens.

Posted by: Islander/Husker on July 30, 2010 5:04PM CST Oh yeah, just 8 days away. PT - Execution is everything. 11 guys have to play their part. Do that and we will have a very season.

Posted by: Islander/Husker on July 30, 2010 5:06PM CST It will be interesting to see what Freshman will show up and who will not.

Posted by: Islander/Husker on July 30, 2010 5:07PM CST That should be very good season.

Posted by: Islander/Husker on July 30, 2010 5:08PM CST Ah the life of the lonely poster.

Posted by: boom.roasted on July 30, 2010 5:11PM CST That's what Bo looks like on Christmas morning. You don't want to see angry Bo.

Posted by: Low Country Husker on July 30, 2010 5:11PM CST Islander Sorry to hear you're lonely...but you're not by yourself, lots of lurkers. Question do you mean show up to fall camp or what Freshmen show up as playmakers this year?

Posted by: Islander/Husker on July 30, 2010 5:11PM CST I think offensively we will be more physical. We finally have dept on the OL. I am not sure of Caputo will end up the #1 Center. Last year they did not use him to relieve Hickman much and Hickman was really banged up. Which tells you Caputo was a distant #2.

Posted by: CBHusker on July 30, 2010 5:12PM CST One game at a time. Anyone can win on a given Saturday. Take what they give us. We have admiration for each team we play.... Yea, right. Lets hope they just kick a** on the way out the door and win the BCS championship game. Dream big if our guys have what it takes. I think this years' team does.

Posted by: Islander/Husker on July 30, 2010 5:14PM CST Yeah, I meant who will show up for camp. To me, to early to predict what Freshman will be playmakers.

Posted by: RU4NU2 on July 30, 2010 5:16PM CST If Dr. Bruce Banner turns into the incredible hulk when he gets mad. And the incredible hulk turns into Chuck Norris when he gets mad. I bet Chuck Norris turns into Bo Pelini when he gets mad. GBR!

Posted by: Islander/Husker on July 30, 2010 5:16PM CST Well, got to get some grub. Wife is at our daughters watching kids while they go out, so I will have to scrounge something up.

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 5:18PM CST If Bos shorth history means anything most will be redshirted. Gotta go cook dinner. Latrz.

Posted by: drivebyposter on July 30, 2010 5:31PM CST I heard the Bo picture above, is Bo responding to a question by BC?

Posted by: The StepnRaZor on July 30, 2010 5:44PM CST PT))) The wrastler and I decided... that you may continue to post. However... you are still on probation. We've got our eyes on you buddy! Just make sure that for every dogging of Mack Brown... you give him a well thought out compliment also. And no more sodomy articles for the chiddrens to read.

Posted by: drivebyposter on July 30, 2010 5:46PM CST NoNo, I heard: Bo is back. The general is ready. The running game will be the priority. The defense will be better all around than last year. The special teams will lead the nation in all categories. The Texas game will be interesting. The corn is moving to the Big Ten next year. Trash is still the "king of the thong" Nish thinks trash is cute Stepn thinks nish is cute. PT likes everybody Gofer likes everybody miam beach husker is a "copy and paster" Ray is really the "Most interesting man in the world." BC and Sipp may still be on vacation. HSB is owned by Ray. Exiled is gonna run the best poster deal again. Bussie is in Missouri Charger is still confused AND the over under for the corn in vegas is like 9.5 007 is a golfer and a womaniser LCH is doing just fine thank you Okay hope that gets you up to date I certainly missed some updates..............Oh ya, DBP had is "crop killed by hail"

Posted by: The StepnRaZor on July 30, 2010 5:52PM CST drive by))) When I was in Peru.... I got to thinkin... you know... about how close I was to the Equator. As a botanist... I noticed how big and beautiful all the plants were. So... I decided I would look into buying some land down there for when the medicine is made legal. So I call some pal-o-mines in Kenya and they told me I would have to outbid..... MARLBORO! He said that within the last 5 years... Phillip Morris has purchased 50-75 2,000 acre patches... so that they can grow the medicine themselves.... when the time comes. sheesh I thought I was gonna be smart... but looks like the big brains at PM were about 5 years aheead of me. hasheesh

Posted by: wchuskernumber1 on July 30, 2010 5:53PM CST Bring on the Big and only Red there is! Its finally feeling like it used to with TO running the show. Wait He still is!

Posted by: The StepnRaZor on July 30, 2010 5:57PM CST I gotta admit... Nish is fairly cute.

Posted by: Low Country Husker on July 30, 2010 6:00PM CST Are you kidding? Nish is Gorgeous! you should see him in all his feathers when he takes the stage.........WoWSA!

Posted by: The StepnRaZor on July 30, 2010 6:00PM CST The Lions signed Jahvid Best! Turning their attention towards Big Suh!

Posted by: The StepnRaZor on July 30, 2010 6:03PM CST I'll bet he signs in the next couple of days.

Posted by: Low Country Husker on July 30, 2010 6:04PM CST Any bets what his bonus will be?

Posted by: Islander/Husker on July 30, 2010 6:04PM CST dpb - I fell left out.

Posted by: Islander/Husker on July 30, 2010 6:06PM CST The #5 pick I think got a 36 Mill bonus, so I guessing Suh maybe in the 40 to mid 40's.

Posted by: Mr HH on July 30, 2010 6:07PM CST BOLIEVE ! www.bolieve.com

Posted by: The StepnRaZor on July 30, 2010 6:08PM CST Pretty close to 40.

Posted by: Big_Red_Grapple on July 30, 2010 6:09PM CST I need to change the subject a bit and get this off my chest, Texas, their media and their fans, continously rag us for having a 1 second chip on our shoulder. They constantly tell us to get over it!!! HMMMMM Kind of like how you got over the 3 way tie breaker in '08? Seems like it is only whining and crying when someone else is doing it. The Big 10 looks better and better every day!!

Posted by: big red 1 on July 30, 2010 6:10PM CST dbp. You missed a few good one's. LOL

Posted by: Viking Husker on July 30, 2010 6:12PM CST Good bye baseball. Good bye golf. Good bye NASCAR. Football is almost here, and none of you matter anymore.

Posted by: Viking Husker on July 30, 2010 6:13PM CST Angry Bo's house doesn't have any doors, just walls that he walks through.

Posted by: drivebyposter on July 30, 2010 7:00PM CST sorry boys it was on the fly So nono Big red 1 still thinks he is military Island husker thinks life and the corn are grand Fitzy still wants to be famous great oz is a loser power has it all...........still montana bh is a killer Trepid knows just about everything boom is a smart one still otb is lost most of the time rd77 is very smart husker bruin sweats alot (according to trash) tom o always picks on me sandhill contributes well hypno is still a funny one plyneb is hard to figure out wrestler got married.....sheesh sodak.........why does he live there? Ask Ray. Festus does not have a limp bryan is a crybaby (see pic) lube is the protector of all that is red Okay gots to walk the dog.

Posted by: big red 1 on July 30, 2010 7:19PM CST Good one Driveby.

Posted by: ARFFman501 on July 30, 2010 7:19PM CST I hope to see a offense like the bowl game and none like Iowa St. game.

Posted by: Trashman on July 30, 2010 7:24PM CST ARFF That is very profound. But true.

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 7:25PM CST Trash, When are you heading west?

Posted by: drivebyposter on July 30, 2010 7:32PM CST Trash, Well see it is like this. The good wife and the kids have been hounding me for a pet quite a while. I offered up me, then you then nish but we were rejected out of hand. So yesterday this dang dog gets delivered to the house. A two year old blue healer and hound dog mix. Thought of you right away. I have been scooped and over ruled...........again. And nish, like you he has one blue eye and one brown eye sheesh

Posted by: Low Country Husker on July 30, 2010 8:01PM CST no no Good to see you back on here, thought of you when I was walking down Duval street last month....that is a country all it's own.

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 8:02PM CST Nioce to see you back No. Missed the updates.

Posted by: bruNo on July 30, 2010 8:22PM CST BO-DACIOUS!

Posted by: Trashman on July 30, 2010 8:59PM CST PT Likely August 19th and 20th I will be your way.... DBP My wife is trying this move too. A little yipper shi-poo, moo, mal-shi, shi-york, shi-eesh-that..... If a dog moves in, I move out...until I am on an acreage. So this mutt reminds you of me but looks like Nish? C & C that one. Nono I knew you were lurking. Couldn't resist I heard. I thought you were in Florida by now. What movie did The General go see? Cell phones and movies = a nono.

Posted by: The StepnRaZor on July 30, 2010 9:09PM CST Eagles traded ILB Joe Mays to the Broncos for JJ Arrington.

Posted by: The StepnRaZor on July 30, 2010 9:14PM CST Sam Bradford signed.... for 78 millz!

Posted by: The StepnRaZor on July 30, 2010 9:15PM CST 50 millz up front!

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 9:17PM CST So much for a recession.

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 9:19PM CST Suh's agent just said "thank you very much".

Posted by: NishBigRed on July 30, 2010 9:24PM CST DBP. At least one of us is house broken. How long before you put some under pants on the dog and see if it reminds you of trash? Blue Healers are usually pretty good dogs.

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 9:34PM CST DPB. He/she will need a lot of exercise. How is your frizzbee throwing?

Posted by: NishBigRed on July 30, 2010 9:43PM CST My Australian/Border Collie loves the tennis ball. Several year back I got where I couldn’t throw the ball far enough the spiral was gone. Purchased a ball launder best investment. I can launch a tennis ball half way across the park. Only bad thing is that my dog loved chasing the ball so much he blew out his cruciate ligament on his right hind leg. Vet wanted to cut it open but stated he probably would never run again. We rehabbed him ourselves, got him back to chasing the ball again and he blew the other one out, so now he is retired. (doesn’t chase the ball anymore). GF put him on some herbs, anti-inflammatory that we mix I his food, he moves better than he has in 3 years. He will be 13 come Sept.

Posted by: drivebyposter on July 30, 2010 9:51PM CST Trash the "little yipper shi-poo, moo, mal-shi, shi-york, shi-eesh-tha" is probably perfect for you. Personality fit. Nish so stepn is not? PT just one more "kid" to look after. Course I now down the totem pole further than ever Hey MBH what is up. You wanna talk some football? Go Bo

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 9:51PM CST Nish, I have a Border collie/spaniel cross. Worthless as hell but a really nice little dog. Spoiled rotten. Shelter pooch. Much better than kids.

Posted by: PT Husker on July 30, 2010 9:57PM CST Nite all.

Posted by: NishBigRed on July 30, 2010 10:05PM CST Stepn, is at time, then he gets excited, like whenever the Husker score a TD, and it goes all to hell. There were times last year when not a lot of TDs were scored so the problems wasn't as prevalent We won't even discuss the Holiday Bowl.

Posted by: ancient1 on July 30, 2010 10:31PM CST Somewhere in the vague recesses of my aging mind I recall a statement being made that the Huskers would now be able to have two practice stations. They hadn't been able to do this. True or no, anyone? If true IMO very important for the development of depth.

Posted by: drivebyposter on July 30, 2010 11:00PM CST Hey nish what is up? Is it like real hot in the vegas.

Posted by: Gofor2 on July 30, 2010 11:11PM CST Nice to see some of the"usual suspects" like No and Bru crawl out.

Posted by: Trashman on July 30, 2010 11:25PM CST DBP Personality dog-fit? Hey, I'm wiry, not kickable. Well maybe to rluben or wrestle. But at least my hip or back wouldn't give out like you and "boom boom". Things that go "click" not "boom" when you walk.... Here's to golf balls that cut through thick air? Sharsh that one.

Posted by: Gofor2 on July 30, 2010 11:28PM CST Correct me if I'm wrong, but is Sunday the start of that magical month of August? Undergrads make their way back to "higher learning." The beautiful "coed hatch" occurs, course schedules are determined, parties, and of course the excitement starts to build for yet another Husker football season. But, correct me if I'm wrong, but there's something in the air. Call it electricity, buzz, whatever, but it feels like what I felt in 1970 to 1973 and TO's last 4 years, Oh, to be a Husker as this confluence of fate, courage, and leadership converges once again on Hukser Nation. GBR PACT

Posted by: Gofor2 on July 30, 2010 11:39PM CST Trash Caught a fish lately? I've been negligent this year do to work. Haven't felt the "tug" lately and I'm getting a little edgy.

Posted by: Trashman on July 30, 2010 11:39PM CST Gofor You are up late for "fogeyville". Your brethren will be proud. But you should still probably sleep in to 6:45am tomorrow....

Posted by: Gofor2 on July 30, 2010 11:42PM CST Trash, I know this dates me a bit, but as I was cleaning out the garage I found a helmet I ware in the Peloponnesian War.

Posted by: Trashman on July 30, 2010 11:44PM CST Gofor I need to get to a lake. My summer has been occupied with baseball, but I do have the time now. But golf overrules everything as I like to ice fish just as much. However, I did land a ball on a frozen lake in early spring (hit a really fat shot) and walked out onto the ice, chipped it to about 2ft and made it for par. My partners called "foul", but never seen a ruling against it. Maybe DBP can find one. The "tug" is always a tough one. Especially when you're married.

Posted by: Gofor2 on July 30, 2010 11:44PM CST Trash, I'm on call, so it'll probably be an all nighter. I don't sleep, waste of time, I'll sleep plenty when I take the "dirt nap."

Posted by: Trashman on July 30, 2010 11:49PM CST Gofor Was this the same area you found the samurai sword? At least you have authentic Halloween costumes. Which garage was it? # 4? I did see you on American Pickers. Use that cash and make sure the teeth are healthy.....

Posted by: Gofor2 on July 30, 2010 11:50PM CST Trash, Ever here about the bet Willy Nelson made. He bet he could hit a golf ball like some amazing distance. Mile? But he could pick the course. Not sure of the locale, but he teed up on a large hill over a frozen lake with significant back wind and let her fly and won the bet.

Posted by: Trashman on July 30, 2010 11:56PM CST Gofor This sounds like David Simms from Tin Cup. Willie did this too? I bet DBP was there. For distance off the tee, he would need a large frozen lake, thin air and a little breeze..... LITR Open spells doom for non-Nebraska golfers....except for maybe 007.

Posted by: Trashman on July 31, 2010 12:01AM CST Gofor Where are you "on-call" at? Sorry, I don't remember what state you're from. My wife's in the industry and hates call. She is very good at what she does...but she wants to go back to school all the time to finish some things. If she could have her way, it would be nurse anesthetist or PA....

Posted by: Gofor2 on July 31, 2010 12:28AM CST Trash Montana

Posted by: 3&OUT on July 31, 2010 12:42AM CST The smell of football is in the air and NU is at the forefront. Spent a few minutes with a couple of Michigan fans at the bar and they made the comment they were going to treat NU just like Ohio State. Pretty high praise for a newby to the conference. I look forward to it and hope to treat the "M" just like Iowa State or Kansas, the ugly step sister that gets lucky every millenium or so. I AM READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!! oNe Nebraska - GBR

Posted by: festusmonroe on July 31, 2010 6:14AM CST "Sam Bradford signed.... for 78 millz!" And this is why nobody wants to trade for the number-one pick.

Posted by: Trashman on July 31, 2010 9:15AM CST Nono Bright and early, just like a Trashman....I like that. Maybe you did not hear with your absence, but Zac's elbow is healthy. So obviously you could not of not beat him.
