    Is Husker Online relevant?

    Back in the old days, it was kind of fun for a while. I had a paid membership to the premium board for years but it was a mixed bag. The mods were inconsistent and arbitrary, if you were part of their crowd you were OK but if not, well, let's just say that they had their own agendas. It also...

    Anyone watching the World Cup?

    I've become a serious soccer fan over the last couple of decades thank to my sons. Both followed it religiously and they finally got me hooked. I grew up in small town Nebraska, we had football, baseball, basketball, wrestling and track so I never really took it seriously until they...

    OT. Rifle scopes.

    -------------------------- I run a Vortex Spitfire 3x32mm EBR-556B Rifle Scope on my AR-15 and absolutely love it. It's great for target shooting out to a few hundred yards. It has a mil spec tree reticle with yardage marks that can be illuminated in red/green if desired, no illumination is...

    To the old timers on here

    I was at the game as well and helped bring the goal post down. Unfortunately my ride back to Omaha wasn't in a celebratory mood like me so we left Lincoln soon after the toppling.

    Vikings new stadium.

    It cost more than NASA spent to send the New Horizons mission to Pluto. Blows my mind.

    Just to clarify how huge a win...

    We're currently 6-1 all time against the Ducks. Back in the 70's/80's we played them 4 times and won those games (they beat us in '53, we won in '52). They were one of the "pre-season" teams we'd play gearing up for the conference play. 1986 was the last time we played Oregon...

    ot:9-11-01 Where were you?

    It's one of those events that everyone can recall where they were and what they were doing. I was in my car driving to Orlando International to catch a morning flight back to Omaha. I was going to surprise my son by showing up at the Nebraska Wesleyan soccer game that afternoon to watch him play...

    Captain America: Civil War

    Yes. What's your opinion: you have an elite team of superheroes. Do they choose to be governed by inferior humans or continue to go rogue and do what they think is right?

    Captain America: Civil War

    I thought it was very entertaining and a thought provoking movie. Sort of a "who polices the police" conundrum. Plus it was fun to watch! I was pretty disappointed in Batman v Superman so Civil War was refreshing.
