  • Going to be some of the very first guests in downtown Lincoln’s newest hotel this weekend.

    I am very happy to see some new hotels downtown. It's been ridiculous how much hotels are on game weekend.  More competition should allow for some more reasonable rates.

    Well, it wasn’t terrible but there were some issues. First the good. It is brand new and clean. The location is good for games and access to the Haymarket area. It should help slightly with price and demand.

    The bad. They struggled with being able to confirm reservations and the person who checked us in was not sufficiently trained. Our key cards did not work first time and had to go down to have them reprogrammed. There was an extraneous tv stand left in our room still in the bag. And the outer appearance was nothing at all like the artists rendering presented online.

    The ugly. Valet parking was not as promised. Told us if we called down ahead they would have our vehicle out front. Called 15 minutes before we went down but they didn’t go to retrieve until we got down there…and it took another 22 minutes. And the street noise from O Street traffic was almost unbearable. We were on 2nd floor (avoid that). My sons room was on 3rd floor and it was slightly better. A few more floors up might be tolerable. The good thing was the AC unit was so GD loud that it would drown out the street noise when it kicked on. Overall, don’t plan on staying there again but maybe it will lighten demand and pricing on others in the area.

    It is time once again to care about obscure sports and pretend to understand them.

    Watched USA vs Mongolia womens 3x3 basketball this morning. Myself and any two neighbors from the cul de sac would destroy Mongolia and probably give the US a run for their money. It was so sad.

    Was it better than men’s basketball?  Pathetic showing.

    Can't wait til they add Nathan's hot dog contest, and Kimchi.  Maybe in a few more years. 

    Anybody have the iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 mini?  Good? Bad?

    I'm curious too and can't believe they're up to 12.  Doesn't feel that long ago I when thought about getting the iphone8 lol.  My one year experiment with Apple was iphone4 s.  :woo

    I had Verizon years ago, switched to T-Mobile, and now have Google Fi. If you don't use a lot of data over the cell network, then Google Fi is the way to go IMO. Cheaper than T-Mobile (a LOT cheaper than Verizon) with slightly better coverage/reception than T-Mobile (Verizon has better coverage/reception in remote areas like the mountains). My bill for two lines with all taxes and fees included range from $50-$65/month.

    Well we made the change. Everything seems fine. I think T-Mobile may lack service in some remote areas but so far I'm getting 5G everywhere I go. I've definitely noticed a big uptick in speed.  And I like my new iPhone 12, not as drastic of a change from Android as I imagined (but I'm fairly accustomed to iOS from my iPad).  We got 4 lines of service for $35 per, all taxes and fees included. Unlimited everything. They can throttle a line when it exceeds 100GB in a month. We were sharing 15GB on Verizon for quite a bit money and only flirted with that volume a few times (because my son is constantly streaming something...) 

    Figures.  2 to 3 weeks from being able to get the vaccine and catch the 'rona. Luckily I don't think it's going to be very bad at all.....unless it gets worse than the last couple days.

    First couple days was like a mild chest cold, thought I was getting better. Then day 3 or 4 headache got worse, started a fever and lost sense of taste and smell and pretty fatigued. I've felt better for sure but it won't be terrible if it doesn't get worse. Got the PCR test today so should know for sure in a day or two.

    Test was positive. Worst part is this frikken headache. I'll be glad when that subsides. And I have the feeling not being able to taste is going to get real annoying quickly.

    Hope you're doing okay, JJ.  

    So odd to see the Browns involved a playoff game.

    JJ Husker
    JJ Husker
    Ha, funny you say that. I had "in a playoff game" originally but since they weren't really in it, I changed it to involved. Maybe I should've said supposedly participating.

    Either way, I like seeing some different uniforms at this point. And way glad the Pats aren't one of them.

    @knapplc I was surprised to hear them claim that was not reviewable. I thought anything involving targeting and player safety was reviewable. I can understand how they missed that one in live action though. Lots of stuff happening on that play....goal line, pylon, fumble....

    Yeah it's kinda nice though.  Pitt and Baltimore have owned that division for so long...

    January 6th, 2021 tells 2020; hold my beer.

    Rona was just the start.    this year has even more crazy ready for us then we could have imagined last year.

    Well, I guess 2020 was good for one thing. It made today seem not quite as strange as it should have. On second thought, I guess that's not a good thing.

    hoping jan. 20th is much calmer than the 6th was.

    Okay, that does it. I officially hate the 2 points for a safety rule.

    It makes sense during the era of the "3 yards and a cloud of dust".  When the fans wore ties and dress shoes to games, and the cheerleaders were swell.  When 3rd and 4 seemed like a mile, and popcorn sold for a dollar.  These days a safety should be six points like a touchdown.

    At least Floppy McFlopsalot pulls that crap against teams other than Nebraska. Still really hate that guy.

    If it was hockey, the refs (and opponents) would cure him of that crap. I hate divers. Play the game right or GTFO.

    The worst part about college officiating is that the refs seem to reward the flopping and call way to many charges, especially when the defender comes from the weak side.  It’s gotten way out of hand, and doesn’t reward athleticism on the court. 

    This site  :facepalm:

    Peak performance I tell ya.

    Has anyone actually purchased anything because of these ads?

    I mean, wtf is the point of them if they aren't working except to make this site annoying as hell on a phone.

    Huskermax is a horrible site. Dinosaur interface & unusable on mobile. Becoming similar to this site. Get it fixed Max. Or else.
