| Geoff Burke-Imagn Images Don’t forget the joke of the week… I’m rather quite embarrassed to type this, or even say this, but until about six months ago I always thought the lyric in Whitesnake’s “Here I go Again” was “like a twister I was born to walk alone.” After looking up the lyrics to do some trivia, I realized the word was actually “drifter”. Boy did I feel like an absolute idiot. It isn’t the first time I’ve misheard a lyric and it definitely won’t... |

What are your thoughts on how late fireworks can be shot off on the 4th? We had a neighbor that didn’t appreciate them being done at 11:30. We live in an area that has no rules on when they have to be done by and we heard fireworks going... |

The President of the Confederation of Switzerland, Karin Keller-Sutter, published several reels on Instagram questioning the motives of Nebraska’s football coach.* That tweet said as follows: “Too many people have profited financially off of negativity and despair. Their time is over.” Too many people... |

A few days ago, the SBNation mothership with Fan Duel asked me for a couple of survey questions in which Nebraska Cornhuskers fans would be interested and the following two were the ones with which I came up.

This will be my list of Nebraska football’s 12 most indispensable players. They may not be the best. They may not even end up playing this season (which would likely be bad for Nebraska).
