I will note that our intern who is a walk-on here at NU told us yesterday that they are still being told that the season will start on time, at the same time they are laying off game day staff.
My lady friend just informed me that her college track teammate that went to New York from KC during their surge is shipping down to Austin today to work in a hospital.
What kind of large gathering with a anthem getting played at do you think is going to be happening anytime soon, in order to even bother to worry about it?
Oregon trail was the defining aspect of computer lab for me. 99 boxes of bullets, a shit ton of oxen and a doctor as my occupation. Pay the money for the ferry to float the wagon across every time it was presented as an option. Cholera couldn't derail my wagon but the Sioux couldn't wait to find me with 0 axles and 4000 lbs of rotted bison meat. That strategy got me past chimney rock every time. Probably made it to the Willamette Valley once. Im an early millennial, if that means anything. Boomers would also go with 99 boxes of bullets, but rather than oxen or a valuable profession, they probably brought 1,000 boxes of bootstraps.
The school I went to was physically on the trail route, nothing better than playing Oregon Trail and passing where you were sitting.
Pence is the car window that won’t roll down right, after you’ve already put a rod through the block, and blown the transmission by putting it into park while still moving
Pelini deal was paid off at the end of last season, why else do you think he suddenly was interested in much higher paying coordinator jobs again? Riley was a lump sum buyout, only coaches getting paid off is basketball now
On the signs that they’re isn’t going to be a football season note, Nebraska laid off the guy who did all their gameday social media content and video and written features on athletes. He’s one of the best in the business and you don’t do that if you think there’s going to be games.
I haven't done a livestock update for awhile, but probably should with the things going on. We are actually running cattle and hog plants ahead of a year ago pace now, but will have a short week next week. Fresh pork and beef are at the lower end of the ranges which should aid in restocking. Assuming we can keep the plants moving cattle supplies will get tighter into the 4th quarter of the year, while farrowing intentions are down sharply which could leave us pretty tight on hogs into 2021 especially if exports keep up the rebound.
Maybe we stop making the one black guy have to be the lightning rod for everything. I’m sure Wallace’s team has been getting an enormous amount of shit from racist cranks already. You had fucking people flying Confederate flags about the race track like Greg Davis is running the organization, and everyone’s on edge. People got excited and carried away, but it’s not like it ended in any sort of brutality unlike a lot of interactions I could mention. But, sure let’s try and funnel all shit on to Bubba instead, regardless of who reported and how the officials handled it.
Maybe this will lead to an inverted Ceausescu where instead of the crowd turning on him, they’ll stop turning out triggering administration collapse that way
