It's that time again!

As I watch the sea of red start to rise, I can't help but wonder what the area will be like at the end of the season. Will there still be excitement in the air, or will it appear as if everyone just got back from a funeral?

I am not a big football fan. I love hockey and baseball. Although I do watch the Rams play from time to time.

For me, the only good thing about Husker games is that the stores are not as crowded and that makes it easier.

I think this topic is different that PP7's "husker news alert" topic, which was about the new coach, which is now old news. It was inactive since last October.

This one would seem to deal with all football, not just the Huskers. We have to remember that the Huskers are not the only team in the nation.

So I see no reason to move this one with that one.

Whatever happened to freedom of speech? PP, isn't it time to ease up a little bit. People can post to or start any thread that they want. This is the same as putting the lower priced E10 in the midgrade when most of the rest of the country puts it in regular where people see it when the site first opens. In all my travels we are the only one I have been to that doesn't put the lowest priced gas in the regular grade regardless of what grade it is.

Well sorry guys!

Maybe it's because PP7's thread hadn't been touched since 10/24/2007 and I didn't think to look all the way down at the bottom of the screen for it.

How long do some of these threads have to sit before they are deleted anyway?

This is another thread that shouldn't have been started. We already have the HUSKERS news alert! thread going for the Huskers football. Maybe GM can add it to that one, he'll do that.

Does anyone know if the Husker game will be shown at DJ's Dugout or Varsity?

As a UCLA guy, I certainly have my own issues when it comes to the football team.

It will be a very interesting season. Expectations are unrealistically high in some cases. I think 7 wins would be a great year!

As long as injuries do not hit, especially defensive line.. the attitude will carry us upward, even after loses. First game will be tough, lots of new faces to plug in, coaches and players...compared to the opponent who has most of their team back and is supposed to win 9 (?) games in their conference.
