Seriously, you are going to pick on a kid for trying to live the dream? My god, how many of us wouldn't want to be playing division one college football regardless of school?I'll be sure that next time I pass out hugs and lollipops to everybody. After all...I'm sure that Nebraska fans will get treated with great respect and dignity when they travel to Columbia and Boulder.
I think you're barking up the wrong tree here, Beach. I see eye to eye with you on a LOT of things, but this one... not so much.Seriously, you are going to pick on a kid for trying to live the dream?

However you did prove my point from another thread that some Husker fans will create the myth of maltreatment in order to vindicate their own classless behavior.
I look at this thread as a way to just loosen up and have a good time.
During VaTech week I traveled over to their boards to see their version of a Husker look a like, and I thought it was very funny. You can't laugh at other people unless you can laugh at yourself...
On a second note, AR said in the first post that if you have a rebuttal, go do it in the Husker thread and not in here.
Now let's get back to posting some pictures!!! :woo :woo :woo
...and mammy and pappy waitin' for sonny to come home for T.G...Nicest one in the park!!
I have no problem with the theme of the thread I just thought it was tacky to make fun of a kid who has obviously worked his tail off just to get on the team, any team, but I seem to be in the minority on this issue so I will let it lie.

I suppose it all boils down to why a person thinks these threads exist. Are they to have some harmless fun, or to mock people? I can see both sides of it, but I personally never intended any pics I posted to be harmful towards the players. The one thread I posted in the most, before I was told to stop, was the Husker Look-Alike thread last week. I wouldn't have posted in a thread about our own players/coaches if I thought I was doing it to denigrate them. I don't think that's the point of these opponent threads, either.
You know our history with walk-ons. You know how much we hold those guys in high esteem. I would think you would know we wouldn't screw those kinds of guys, from any program.
I could be all wrong here, but I think I speak for everyone when I say these threads aren't meant to mock anyone.
