Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

Nicely paired you Foodie

Same here amigo.

I was very touched some twenty years ago (coming up in August) by how so many posters here responded when I was in a bad way.

I still am.

I hardly ever post, but I find this site (and HuskerMatwitter.com) to be my go-to place for fun times reading and sometimes communicating with my fellow football fans - regardless of school affiliation; we are all just fans of the sport, I think.  When I do post, I tend to blather on, and I never know what weird tangent we might go on, but it is always fascinating and usually brings a smile to my face.  I find it comforting to see how this group rallies around one another in times of need from all parts of the country and no matter our sport, political, or religious affiliations - we are all in the same boat of humanity.  Makes me happy and hopeful for the future. 

my husband may think I am a bit nuts, and he makes fun of my Husker devotion at times, but he says at least this way I can inflict my sportsdom on someone who appreciates my craziness, and he can go off and do his thing without inflicting his craziness on me, lol.  This always makes me happy.  

My doctor visit yesterday revealed what I was a bit afraid of; bilateral hip osteoarthritis - so some adjustments to be made with my trips to the games this year; handicap parking lot and the golf shuttle that takes me right to the northwest corner of the stadium.  All I need to do is exchange my tickets with row 55 seating to the mobility assistance seating in row 7.  So game enjoyment without too much pain!  Woo hoo! And that makes me the happiest of all!  

Always good to see you around @huskerdinie !

Having been officiating High School football for 25 years, I have seen a lot of high school football games, most just aren't that good, but the good ones are worth the bad ones.

Yeah, our kids' high school regularly competes for 5A state titles, and their archrival won the state 6A championship last year, and overall the district is pretty good, so many of the games I get to see are pretty high-quality Texas football games.

New boat got delivered today, and the old one taken away.

Double happy!

My senior year in HS, the football coach asked me to come onto the team and play tight end.  Bear in mind, I had never played organized football before, and I was 6'4" and 175 pounds.  I declined, I wanted to focus on the two bballs, but looking back I find it remarkable he needed a TE with no prior experience, and I probably would have started.  The team ended up "defeated" as I recall, I think they managed a tie.

The HS now is a football powerhouse, the ethnicity of the students has changed a lot.

The HS nearest me now has a rather impressive stadium (for Georgia) that I understand was built for the Olympics as a practice field.  I don't think they win many football games though.
