First winning season! First bowl victory!

The victory was Nebraska’s first bowl win since 2015 and the program’s first winning season since 2016

Now everyone bow down to the mighty Huskers as they’re BACK and should be in contention for a NC In 2025….

LBJ on the Gulf of Tonkin incident, Nixon on bombing Cambodia and his treasonous acts before the 1968 election let alone Watergate, George W Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld totally lying about Iraq having WMD.

I just rewatched the movie Shock and Awe about Bush 2's lying gang that got so many people killed over a grievance to get Saddam.

I doubt Al Gore would have forced the lies to overthrow Saddam and Gore would have kept his eye on Afghan. and Al Queda.

We have to be better at identifying the wackos we make as Presidents.

Trump is really scary with his hair trigger lies and moods.

Nintendo Wii bowling is still awesome!

Well, OK, they didn't go that far. But they are pissed about Elon's support of the neo-Nazi AfD and accuse him of meddling in German elections.

Berlin accuses Elon Musk of trying to influence German election​

The German government has accused Elon Musk of trying to meddle in the country’s election campaign with repeated endorsements of the far-right party AfD.

“It is indeed the case that Elon Musk is trying to influence the federal election,” said the government spokesperson Christiane Hoffmann after Musk’s X posts and an opinion piece published at the weekend backing the anti-Muslim, anti-migration Alternative für Deutschland.

She said at a regular media briefing that Musk had the right to free speech, adding: “After all, freedom of opinion also covers the greatest nonsense.”

Musk has often weighed in on German politics, even calling the chancellor, Olaf Scholz, a “fool” on his social media platform X last month. However, his more recent open calls for German voters to back the AfD, which federal authorities classify as a suspected extremist party, have sparked outrage and accusations of troubling interference in Europe’s top economy.

The South African-born entrepreneur, who has been named by Donald Trump to co-lead a commission aimed at reducing the size of the US federal government, wrote on X earlier this month: “Only the AfD can save Germany.”

In the post, he shared a video by a German rightwing influencer, Naomi Seibt, who criticised Friedrich Merz, the conservative frontrunner in the German election, and praised Javier Milei, Argentina’s self-styled “anarcho-capitalist” president.

He followed up at the weekend with a guest editorial in the broadsheet Welt am Sonntag arguing that Germany was teetering on the brink of economic and cultural collapse, defending the AfD against accusations of radicalism and praising the party’s approach to the economy, including regulation and tax policy.

The editor of the centre-right newspaper’s opinion section, Eva Marie Kogel, posted on X that she had submitted her resignation in protest at the decision to run the article.

Politicians from across the political spectrum criticised Musk’s attempts to put his thumb on the scales of German democracy, with the health minister, Karl Lauterbach, of Scholz’s Social Democratic party (SPD) calling his intervention “undignified and highly problematic” and Merz saying it was “intrusive and presumptuous”.

Merz told the Funke media group: “I cannot recall in the history of western democracies a comparable case of interference in the election campaign of a friendly country.”

Who pays the bills for injured players that transfer. The previous school or the new one?

Thanks in advance

My guess is Hegseth. I don't think sobriety will work well for him.

"They greet me with a 40 and I start drinkin'
And from the 8-ball my breath start stinkin'..."

Wow, I can't believe it is that time of year again, time to vote for the 2024 MPOTY. We have such amazing finalists this year, may the best poster for the specific award win the victory.

stevenpatrick?? Is this a fake? Is he lurking? Does he have Seattle sweet corn?

Will this board persist in daily pissing matches about Trump or do we move onto other things?

it's like watching a bad re-run

So let’s say a buddy tells you he met a chick at a bar and they hit it off. He then says she is (hot, pretty, beautiful, good looking, sexy).
Where do you assume she ranks on a 1-10 with each description?
Which to you means she is the best looking?

At this point, I think it's clear the Payton is struggling this year. He's had a couple of good games, played decently against Northwestern and Michigan, but really fell apart against Utah St and Iowa St. This is supposed to be the leader of the team and right now, he has the 3rd best efficiency rating and is shooting 31% from 3 (27% against top 100 teams). I hope he can turn it around because he might be hurting his draft stock if his season keeps going this way.

The Postal Service is offering early retirement buyouts to mail handlers who work in the agency’s mail processing facilities.

USPS, in a memo obtained by Federal News Network, is offering lump-sum incentive payments worth up to $15,000 to eligible mail handlers who agree to a voluntary early retirement in the coming months.

The agency reached an agreement with the National Postal Mail Handlers Union, which represents 47,000 mail handlers nationwide. Federal News Network reached out to the union for comment.

It’s not clear how many mail handlers USPS expects to accept the offers, or whether agency leadership is looking at a specific headcount reduction.

Hello from Carver-Hawkeye Arena on a Sunday afternoon! If there's any dropoff in enthusiasm for the Hawks after their two B1G losses, nobody told the ticket-buying fans here — looks like it'll be a solid gold-out. Seats are still only half-full (I can assure you the traffic is nasty) but it's low double digits for the amount of fans in crimson I see.

No injuries of note for either team.

Starters should be coming in about 15.

I don't have a great read on this Indiana team — they're missing the elite star power that has defined the recent Teri Moren era, but she's a good enough coach (and Iowa is new enough) that this is the type of team that can give Iowa hell if the Hawkeyes aren't well-prepared.

What are you all looking for today?
