PrintWOohoooo! Welcome to the Friday night Football THREAD/EXTRAVAGANZA/PARTY/SLEEOPOVER!!!
Should be a great game tonight between TEAM1 and TEAM2 on TVCHANNEL at TIME. Another barn burner, finishing in three overtimes with UNDERDOG TEAM coming back to win late just like always!
I can't wait to see how TEAM1's STAR OFFENSIVE PLAYER does against TEAM2's STAR DEFENSIVE PLAYER. You know, TEAM1'S player is RUSHING/THROWING the ball really well, ranked NATIONAL RANKING nationally. Look for him to have YARDAGE/RECEPTIONS/TOUCHDOWNS, although TURNOVERS/MEDICAL ISSUES may be a problem that keeps his numbers down.
Can't wait to see FEMALE SIDELINE REPORTER in action, either. Unfortunately ANNOYING ANNOUNCER GUY#1 is doing the game, you know, the guy who always hates Nebraska, so you might want to have plenty of ALCOHOL/DRUGS/A NYMPHOMANIAC on hand to help you get through the game.

I'm going to go run before fall goes away here in Madison.
I’ve been informed I’ve got about a week.
Since I don’t remember fall from last year, I’m taking their word for it.

Ahem.
I need to interrupt this football conversation, and register a complaint about CN.
At the bottom of JLew’s Corn Flakes article on the home page, it says (and I quote) “Great News and awesome stiff after the jump.” Let me tell you, that had my curiosity peaked, so I made the jump, and guess what? After looking high and low and going over the entire article with a magnifying glass, I did not see ONE AWESOME STIFF! Not ONE!
Now, I understand that sports sites on the web are geared toward you gentlemen.
And I’m tolerant of all those pictures of scantily clad cheerleaders.
But, COME ON! To feign a promise of an awesome STIFF, and raise the hopes CN women everywhere, and then not to deliver (not even slap up a Congressman Weiner leftover shot)…that reeks of insufferable, infuriating sexism!!!
And I will not stand for it!

Black shirts.
Did you all hear what Carl said at the breakfast today? All week at practice, the D was breaking the huddle by saying “shirts!”. Think the boys are getting hungry for them.
Maybe awarded after the Wisconsin game?

They’ve been awarded them before the conference opener or before a big game the since the brothers Pelini took over. I’d put money on them getting them this coming week.

I received
an interesting email today, and I hope it’s a true story.
You’ve noticed that the Huskers have been carrying an American flag out of the tunnel this year. According to this email, the flag had been carted around Afghanistan for several tours by a serviceman named Riggens from Fremont.
While home on leave this summer, he was asked to address the team, and by the end of the speech, the team was so fired up they wanted to follow him out the door.
The team will carry the flag on to the field at both home and away games. The only thing he asked is that it never touch the ground (of course) so it’s placed in a stand during the game.
They're 18 to 22...how perfect were you at that age?

I think it was a really nice addition.
I kind of wouldn’t mind them maintaining that as a new tradition.
