I've done this before, so I won't say too much.

I created a new username because I completely lost everything for the old ones -- I used to be Red Snow Sword: Husker Sentinel. I am currently a college kid on the east coast, and have been following (seriously) the Huskers intently for 3 years now. The first year I really got into them was the year FS got the ax, so it was kind of strange - thought I was bad luck. But I remembered them, Nebraska, since I was younger. I probably saw them during their championship runs in the 90s, I remember the team in red and white, which are my favorite colors and so forth.

WCO or option? I use both when I play the NCAA videogames. I can't deny that I fell in love with Nebraska with the ideals of power running in my head, and a good, solid heartland sort of naturalness to them. I never lived in Nebraska, but it has a place in my heart, if you can imagine that. I'm very excited to be a Husker fan.

I really like the motto and husker prayer (the full version as well as the end), which is on the "TRADITION" poster on my bedroom wall:

"Not the Victory but the Action

Not the Goal but the Game

In the Deed the Glory"

GBR, :restore :woo

PS: I like using emoticons, especially the new ones. So don't mind me.

These are my currrent favorites:

:restore :hmmm :ahhhhhhhh :woo

2) What/who led you to The Nation? Birth

3) Where are you from originally? Morrill, NE

4) Where do you live now? Beatrice, NE

5) Favorite Husker memory? Ahman Green taking the very first offensive snap to the house against Colorado. I think it was '95.

6) Worst Husker memory? That tech game a couple years ago was a real low point. I'm a glass half full kinda guy, but that really tested my resolve.

7) Number of home games attended? 15-18

8) Number of away games attended? 0

9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel? I've got a Sports Illustraited with the players carrying Tom Osborne on the cover and TO autographed it to me with the words: "Ron, thanks for being a great fan. Tom Osborne"

10) Favorite place to watch a Husker game? (section in Memorial, bar, friends house etc.) I prefer Memorial Stadium.

11) Favorite all time player? Grant Wistrom (Nobody played with more heart.)

12) WCO or Option? I loved our Option identity with T.O. but were building a new identity now and its the WCO and I'm embracing it. (see I am a half-full guy)

13) Stevie Pederson or Billy Byrne? In my opinion, Byrne put us in the pickle we were in when S.P got here with the facilities. S.P. has made a few mistakes and taken his lumps but all in the name reclaiming our tradition of excellence. Some of those lumps were pretty big though. I'll give a slight edge to S.P.
