.....lots of topics discussed, lots of OFF topic threads started, lots of prayer requests asked for and given, lots of excitement moments, recently more dismal outlooks...

When I first joined, I became a Husker Board addict...so much good stuff....Frank was still our coach IIRC, Crouch was our qb, Tough Tony was the board lightening rod...many memorable topic threads, many new acquaintances, MOST whom I've never met personally....times I've waned in my enthusiasm for our outcomes, never the core belief....

Thoughts about the era of posting(not overall fandom, which started in '62):
-that's a LOT of posts...perhaps could use my time better:)
-favorite athlete....too many to name....
-favorite coach....has to be Cook, even though my ONLY Volleyball love is Husker volleyball
-greatest moment to share...sitting randomly by Tommie at the 2009 Big 12 Championship game but NOT having a phone that had a camera
-greatest disappointment....how the Frost regime turned out
- greatest joy.....sharing moments to laugh over/argue over etc
-great gratefulness...when our first granddaughter died in 2007, the outpouring of support and prayers from total strangers bonded only by our common thread of the Huskers

Well, I won't make 22,000 more....no, not dying, I don't think:).....just less might be more....

Blessings to you all....May the love of God draw you and comfort you.

Have a great day.....

Obviously too much time on your hands with retirement. :) Still need to meet up in Wichita.

Congrats. Many times over the last 20 years when things here got ugly or not fun your posts helped bring us back to the whole point, which is being Cornhusker fans. Hope you make it to 44K posts.

Clearly I need to post more as I've been here since 2001 as well!

Such great memories over the years - TD ticket scandal, Good Will dumpster diving for Husker gear, etc. etc.

Congrats to all of us who have been around this long. Go Big Red!!

I remember my first day on the board like it was yesterday… 22+ years ago. It helps it was the day of Black 41 Flash Reverse…

Congrats on 22k!

I'll be a member on here 20 years in August. Somehow most of my previous posts were deleted after I was dethroned as a moderator. I should be up to a Nebraska Legend by now...

you were dethroned???? How did THAT happen???
I was deleting girly pictures and almost porn ones posters put up and some members got very mad and complained to the higher ups. I guess they felt judged and guilty.
Roz put me on as moderator but was forced to take me off. He was a good guy and felt bad he had to do it.
