    Driving to Colorado for about a month today.  Wife said she needed at least 2 hours to get packed up and ready.  She's packing like we're going to be completely separated from civilization for a month, rather than going to a Denver suburbs.  I just decided not to say anything...took a lot of restraint when I saw her carrying a lamp out to the car.

  2. Unfortunately, there's not video of it that I can find, but my father was at the '65 game OSU at Nebraska and has told me so many times how Walt Garrison almost single handedly took on the whole Nebraska defense and beat them.

    It really took some doing for the Huskers to win No. 9 after OSU had gone in front, 17-14, with only 5:18 left in the game. But Fred Duda launched the game-winning drive that was to sparkle with key plays.

    It was Harry Wilson who came up big each time he had to — catching a 11-yard pass for a first down at midfield with a diving snare; a 11-yard run, coupled with a piling penalty to get the Huskers to the Cowboy 15; a leaping plunge on fourth down at the OSU 5 for a first down.

    Pete Tatman bulldozed over from the two with 38 seconds left and Wachholtz kicked to make it 21-17, and the Huskers relaxed. But they shouldn’t have, because the Cowboys, led by great fullback Walt Garrison, drove all the way to the NU 23 before the last play of the game.

    And on that one, Garrison tore 18 yards before Husker Billy Johnson brought him down at the NU 5.

    1965 Nebraska-Okla. State, Garrison photoNebraska coaches George Kelly and Bob Devaney console OSU’s Walt Garrison after the game, which ended when Garrison was stopped at the Huskers’ 5.

    Here's an odd fact about Mallett.  He backed up Chad Henne the one season Mallet was at Michigan (2007) .   Henne just retired from the NFL.   

    Henne's last college football game was against Zac Taylor at QB.  His second to last NFL game was against Zac Taylor at Head Coach.

    Terrible ways to die thread is that way.

    My mother's college roommate was on her honeymoon snorkeling with her new husband when a shark came out of nowhere and took him away.  I remember hearing that story as a kid and vowing to stay the hell out of the ocean.

    the lesson was to not get married you big dummy

    I watched parts of John Wick on Amazon Prime the other day.

    Guess I’m not the target audience because I turned it off with no intention of watching the rest.

    I totally get it.

    uh... you sure about that chief?

    I mean we all have heard at various times in their posting lives that  @Brisketexan and @THUJONE try to go commando in the courthouse as often as possible.

     

    I strenuously object

    KC fans are a huge reason i became a KC fan myself. those who were around back ~2007-2011 will remember me being one of maybe 2-3 people who woke up every sunday morning hungover as shit, just so we could find an illegal stream (in 2008!) of the sorry ass Chiefs, simply because of Jamaal and DJ. still, every week those fans would sell out that stadium and go nuts, just celebrating football eight sundays a year, no matter how shitty the team was. it was and is seriously impressive.

     i myself nearly didn't survive watching Todd Haley misuse Jamaal, giving his carries away to people like sorry ass Peyton Hillis and old ass Thomas Jones, but thankfully Andy Reid eventually took over and it's been awesome ever since. still, i'm not sure i would have stuck around this long if i didn't want to be a part of what truly is one of the best fan bases in american sports. 

    you would really enjoy this more than anyone I think

    I will say there is enough sentiment that if Mickey Joseph can string together something this fall, that the fans and boosters would happily give him a crack at things, and just figure that we knew we needed a 90’s QB, we just had the wrong one.

    If we're shooting for a former QB, I think I'd prefer Zac Taylor.
