That's impressive. I had no idea. Interesting that the usual Husker Haters had nothing to say. Pretty tough for 'em to understand all those big words, I suppose.

Well, let's see now. When the new BCS standings come out tonight the Big Ten will have three teams in the top ten. The Big 12 MIGHT have one if Oklahoma sneaks in there after beating Okla St yesterday. Kinda shoots the theory that Nebraska is switching so they can win more football games right...

Mike, Basketball revenue, NCAA Tourny or not, is just a drop in the bucket compared to the money football brings in. When it comes to realignment it isn't even a consideration. Just as an example, the most successful basketball program last year (financially) was North Carolina, which brought...

Nebraska's decision had little, if anything, to do with football or any other sport. Not that I expect you to listen to reason, but Nebraska went to the Big Ten for two reasons: money and stability. If they never win a Big Ten championship, they'll still be better off than they were in the Big...

Welcome to the Big Ten, Sandy. Glad to have you. And yes, jigs is just blowing smoke. Nebraska will be treated as an equal member from the git go just as Penn State was 20 years ago and just as Michigan State was 60 years ago. Joe Paterno was instrumental in getting Penn State into the Big Ten...

Don't follow the Big 12 too close, and I don't have a dog in this fight, but I thought some of you might enjoy this.

Sure was a great game. All I have to say is.........dam it!! :lol: Enjoy.

My Mom is Norwegian so I was rooting for Norway, too. It was fun to watch and the best team won.

I'd imagine that everyone old enough remembers when the U.S. hockey team beat the Soviet Union in 1980. But many don't remember that they had to beat Finland two days later to win the gold. They were losing 2-1 after two periods and Herb Brooks told his team "If you lose this game, you'll take...

It was fun to watch. Our ladies fought hard, but the best team won. Obviously the crowd was pro Canada, but I thought they showed good appreciation for the way our ladies played.

I swear that Russian goalie looked relieved when they pulled him. Can't say as I blame him. That was quite an onslaught.

Don't get the NHL on TV much down here except at playoff time. I like watching hockey, though, so I eat it up when the Olympics are on. Was really into the match last night. Looked like the Canadians were the better team overall, but the Americans looked a little faster. Goaltending definitely...

Never paid much attention to curling before this year but I've been watching quite a bit of it. Looks easy, but I'm sure it takes a lot of skill, especially at that level.

I haven't watched one of those types of shows since Johnny Carson retired. I found it interesting that a couple of days ago the national news on the radio (CBS) led with a story about the NBC late night wars, or whatever they were calling it. Almost as an afterthought, they then reported on the...
