Huskers, USMNT/USWNT, Royals, UH Cougars, Shockers. Still soaking in the ‘15 Royals championship and thankful for Husker volleyball. I’m probably on a soccer field in H-Town right now.

It would be a great use this prestigious military.

And every time I fly into Eppley, I remember the unfortunate casualties of that great battle. A lot of good Huskers were lost that day.

There is a Nebraska Navy. My grandpa was a member. It’s really a tongue in cheek honor for Nebraskans of notoriety. Apparently it’s used now to repel the Iowa Coast Guard from crossing the Missouri River.

That is pretty much how I said “Go Big Red” during the Riley and Frost years.

Keenum threw 68 passes and ran 7 times in that Penn State game! Almost nothing but short slants and screens.

I was also one of the 537 people there!

It was so fun to be at UH during his time. A great dude as well. He deserves to be remembered one more time as someone who was a total gamer.

I’ve watched games at 3 of these stadiums (Aloha, Orange, CSU) and my dad had heart surgery next to another. (Pitt).

I didn’t think we scheduled real teams in Non-Con anymore? Great to see. Now bring back Tennessee!

Took my then 7 year old daughter to N vs UCLA in 2019. First two sets we watched the match. Last set was for chasing down Lil Red for a photo. Success! 7 years later, she is keeping track of how many days until she becomes a student and she can tell me future vball commitments.

I have wanted to go to Azteca for a USMNT match for years and my wife won’t let me for all the reasons you are thinking.

Rooting for MEX tonight. Rare occurrence. As a Nebraska alum, they used to be like Texas where I refuse to cheer for them in anything. Now they are like Iowa. I don’t like them, but respect them and want them to rep the conference well. Will still have perversive joy if they lose painfully though.

At least it wasn’t in a dome like in Houston yesterday, where we also got to watch the first 15 minutes in a smokey fog.

Soccer in the USA is mainstream. MLS is not. Those are 2 different statements. Media needs to stop conflating the two MLS will have a bump, but still not be mainstream. Soccer in general will continue to rise overall. It’s just consumed from many more leagues/national teams than other main sports

I’m with you on this. Looking forward to when I’m 70 for the next and final championship of my life. At least 5 World Series and 3 titles in my life. Unless you’re a Dodgers or Yankees fan, I feel that’s a deal worth taking.

I was born in Nebraska and lived there until I was 4 and then in college. I will always be Nebraskan first. Have lived in Houston since 2000. I also claim Houston while running away from any Texas connections as fast as I can.

There is a difference between “can win” and “will win”. Can we win? Of course. It’s the best odds we have have ever had in the World Cup? Will we? IMO, we have the same odds as any team that is not FRA, ARG, ESP, ENG and BRA. Maybe 1%.

He was going to kill everyone that night. I think I was stared down in the 30th row by him. I also meant the crap roughing the passer call, not a PI.

Whenever I beat my wife or kids in any game, I tell them it’s because I have “Good Clean Living” just to get an annoyed reaction. Same thing my grandpa did to my grandma growing up.

So where does that put the Jets? USA hosts again in 2070 and they end a 101 year drought?

Yes. I’m sorry. I take back what I said. Thanks.

2002 vs Portugal since it was a knock out, but otherwise, most definitely.

I will be at the USMNT match on Friday. I’m assuming he will be there and look forward to booing him out of SoFi when he’s seen.

Houston is not filled with as many “Texans” as people think. I great thing about this city. It’s definitely a “live there” and not “vacation” city. A good think about Houston roads and traffic, is when we aren’t in a traffic jam, we are all going 80+ mph.

Any chance you could start getting more of your individual writers to start posting here so you’ll stop propping up this man’s hellscape?

I don’t really know what I was supposed to be concerned about. She said it’s because they could have turned around prior to us. I didn’t get it, so just smiled, thanked her and laughed when I saw giant orange cones on the front on her driveway every morning.

My neighbor in TX saw the same car would use her (and also my driveway) to turnaround around 3:00 AM many mornings from her security camera. She let me know how concerned we should be and put barricades up in her driveway. I didn’t care. Turned out driver was delivery medical supplies.

Maybe she could celebrate Nebraska style by not helping kick thousands of Nebraskans off health insurance or standing quiet as ICE uses a state facility as a detention camp.
