okay but i am going to need a nebraska women's flag football shirt as soon as humanly possible

listen i had my issues with this, but 1) gave me at least a few solid frank and hazel moments because rick REFUSES to give me a real book about them and 2) remembered about hazel and the mist in a big way, which was my biggest complaint about tyrant's tomb

ok, starting up the book thread for this year. ultimate goal is still 100, but now that this is year four, i've got intermediate goals at 39, 58, and 90. it's nice to be reminded both how much more reading i've done in the last few years and to give myself smaller but definite numbers to push for.

…the wisconsin basketball that nebraska beat by 30? now that’s interesting

REPORTS OF NEBRASKETBALL INCREASING BY THE DAY

BALL DON'T LIE, REPORTS OF NEBRASKETBALL INCREASING AT AN INCREDIBLE RATE

ending the year as i mean to go on, wishing a happy birthday to george gordon meade, victor of gettysburg, born december 31, 1815

have to say i enjoyed that, personally

it's that time again, folks

i'm partway through a couple others, but i think this is probably it for the year. still a long ways off that first year, and from my ultimate goal of 100, but i also read almost 20 more books this year than last, so i'm proud of myself and ready to try again in 2026.

ending christmas day reading 'going postal' while 'klaus' plays in the background

'the kids don't love learning anymore' false, every single one of my classes absolutely drank up the fact that the original singer of 'you're a mean one mr. grinch' is from nebraska and his name was THURL RAVENSCROFT

it's been far too long since i watched derry girls and i forgot that the pilot is basically a perfect episode of television

heel boys and ‘sker boys out here winning? a good day

i really enjoy the thing nebraska does where they get to 2-0 and then simply crush the life out of their opponent in the third set for the sweep. just brutally extinguishing all hope.

HEEL BOYS. LET'S HEAR IT FOR THE HEEL BOYS.

please do not pay any attention to how long it took me to finish my latest re-read of this children's fantasy series

the important thing for us to remember here is that nebraska volleyball won the big ten title outright today

i know some of it is personnel, but also i am beginning to believe that john butler simply is not it. the adjustments he made to try to be better against the run hurt the excellent pass defense and then also didn't stop the run.

i maintain that this team has seen genuine improvement this year over last year's team, especially with a freshman qb in his second game on the road after being tossed in midseason but this constant shitting down their leg in road games with any stakes at all is the one thing that remains truly bad

good news everyone, nebraska volleyball has still never lost to iowa, nebrasketball has the longest winning streak in men's division one basketball, and we've finally moved ahead of wisconsin in the blood drive after being soooo close for weeks. big red stay winning.

louisville heard us all talking about how kickers are too good now and is trying to change the narrative all by themselves

go big red, stop fucking with the jerseys and good things happen also just to reiterate my point here from last week: while they clearly did not make the jump we all wanted them to make and some people expected for various reasons, this team is better than last year's and that is important

yeah ej easily into the top ten and still climbing of my favorite huskers. he simply does. not. stop.

oh that will cause them specifically so much pain and i'm here for it

folks i just did a quick check the vibes are IMMACULATE at the moment

we made it y’all. college basketball has returned to us.

this season of bakeoff is fine, but after the casting of the past few years, it feels a little flat the past two seasons had some all timers, and while there are some fun characters here, it's simply not measuring up on that portion

once again i am correct (although the injury to dr certainly did not help), once again i am moving on with my life

absolutely prepared to blame a third loss on Jersey Decisions, even if this one is minimally dumb after past black jerseys (and not black alts honestly)… go ‘skers

i don't even know what you can say about nebraska volleyball right now. they just went an entire month without losing A SET. just belt to ass every fucking game.

three minutes into the 300th episode of bob's burgers and i can already tell the degree to which this will emotionally wreck me in the best possible way

let me just take a quick moment to say… go big red

wasn't sure how much i would enjoy this br**ers series loss, given everything, but the answer is extremely a lot do i love that it happened because of a baseball super weapon? no

i understand that they (rightly?) don't care about superstitions and just want to look cool because it doesn't have anything to do with anything, but also these things keep happening when they wear the surrender whites and i'm going to start glowing with ridiculous rage

how lovable is eugenio suárez? he *routinely* did this shit against the baseball team i have rooted for my entire life and i still want only good things for him.

honestly extremely happy for the people finding out that joe flacco went to delaware. like what a great night for those people.

does another team have to do it too, to make up for solich? because just a reminder, my dumbass university did this twice in three coaches

random late night 'skers posting, but so far i am really enjoying both dane key and nyziah hunter

lots of bad shit with my baseball team currently, including that they are no longer playing, but at least i don't have to deal with dave roberts making pitching decisions

that feels like a big win for the mariners in a couple different important ways

holy shit, forgot jeff sims was qbing arizona state tonight that is certainly one of the things that have happened of all time

the vibes were incredible for the first half of the season, and i'm glad they at least showed some fight in this series, but i can't say i'm that upset about this season being over vibes have been *rancid* for the most part since the break

never in doubt*, go ‘skers *i can feel my heartbeat in my toes

THE MARINERS BABY, JUST LIKE THEY DREW IT UP

rolling stone 250 has two lorde songs but neither are 400 lux and thus it is invalid, sorry that's just how it goes

apologies, but given the context, this is one of the funniest penguins wins of all time not right at the top or anything, but definitely top 25? maybe top 20?

the way that vlad jr hates the yankees is so inspiring. may we all aspire to that level someday.

it still feels deeply surreal that nebraska not only won that game yesterday, but won by 11. that thing was wrapped up with like 5 minutes to go.

never in doubt, i say, ignoring how incandescently angry i was at halftime
