The Tangent Thread

[Lyons in the Sea of Red.]

That you don't get jokes.

There are a lot of people who are on here constantly bitching about Kenny Bell on twitter, so honestly, unless you spend your entire day on Huskerboard and know what camp Landlord is in, it's really not all that outrageous to think that he might have been serious.

Sarcasm doesn't translate well over the internet but com'on man! That would have been one of the most outrageous complaints ever on huskerboard, which is saying something.

Usually Im pretty good in the sarcasm dept, but like I said, with the amount of nuts there are on this board it can get hard to tell what is a real complaint or not unless you're pretty familiar with that persons attitude about things.

Polo I think more broadly you just wish that more people were more negative and pessimistic about life in general.

I think it's great that some of the players have been practicing yoga. A few recent friends I've met in Atlanta work for a yoga company that helps rehabilitate retired WWE wrestlers, mixing the best parts of it with more traditional workout principles and are seeing tremendous results.

You're right. I should more positive about NU's prospects because Diamond Dallas Page does a thing that's similar to something NU is trying.

That's seriously the best one yet. Kudos.

He is talking about two different topics, hence the two separate paragraphs. Or do you need a page break to figure that out?

And now I hear more fans than ever listing reasons why things won’t work this season rather than why they will. That used to be our job.

I wish they still thought it was their job. The North Korea theme in the media is growing away from sad and pollenating to pathetic.

Likening our media pumping a little sunshine at the start of fall camp to a totalitarian dictatorship that controls all facets of the country and murders its own citizens is pretty pathetic.

Sarcasm sir. Metaphors even. I know Huskerboard is serious business and all.....

Except it wasn't funny, and borderline distasteful.

As an FYI to those of you frequently populating this thread, I will start giving out suspension for posts I have to move.

Knapp could write "Hi" and it would get 55 Rep up points...

not saying he doesnt add solid stuff, but man he gets (+) rep a lot... every post by him usually has 2-3 green points..

Normally because his posts are spot on, the way the old and some new fans think. He really used to bug me with his posts, but over the years, I realize he is able to say and quite eloquently what I think. Thanks for the motivation Knapplc. I always welcome your posts, unless it is a scolding for being bad. Even then they are normally right.

I heard yesterday the Charlie Strong has taken the LongHorn off the practice helmet. Earn it, every play is the mantra. Charlie and Bo are a lot a like I think. Just because they are in the locker, does not mean they are for real. Change the tradition, make it a current one. One looked up to, admired, desired and costly. The fire will return I promise.

I seldom give rep points, and honestly do not think I ever given Knapp a single one. But I have been bad, and now on the tangent thread.
