Did I ever reply to this thread? 
I have no good excuse  other than I am on msg boards less than I used to, but I should post here more often.

Simply got busy with 2 kids of youth sports age crossed with long bouts of OT at work at different times.

I still keep in touch a couple times per season with my BBQ sensei @MarqHusker .  I went from clueless on smoking brisket to very good at it, and this man's patience and willingness to type long, detailed emails and texts have helped out soooooooo much.

@integrinB4 and I still have Purdue season tix together for football (well, we did in 2014-2019, didn't exactly have an opportunity last year.) 

Does he not post anymore either?

We have in frequent contact recently trying to get Purdue NCAA tix.  So far we've come up snake eyes.  I bought a bunch of NCAA sessions in the late breaking presale last week, picked the right venue and the right approximate time, yet got stuck with the 2 other Lucas Oil games Purdue was part of (WVU and Texas round 1 games).  Even worse they sent virtually every other MW team to Mackey, or even dumber, Illinois to the tiny Pepsi coliseum where IUPUI plays.  There will be as many IL fans there as will be able to buy tix in 2 sections of Lucas Oil.

At least I was able to go to the Purdue-OSU BTT game last Friday.  Was fun to be screaming like a lunatic on defense rooting on the rally after Purdue dug that huge first half hole.  Been over a year since I'd been at a Purdue event (forget if it was out recent annihilation of MSU at Mackey or when IL thumped us to end their 12 year Mackey losing streak).  Regardless, was like riding a bike and felt good

Proud to still be the only Hoosier fan around here. Hoosier membership on this board is pretty proportionally representative of home attendance at football games.

If McTwerps is gone (I love the guy, but always remembered with a laugh that he was initially called that by others), I may also be the only representative of my fanbase.  I mostly lurk, though.

I do remember that whenever I did my football rankings, they were always pretty much identical to those of LetsGoPeay...

our old buddy Vine Street Bomber on the Right - pictured with his brother on the left

Vine Street's post............

My late brother Glenn and I outside the field house at Seacrest Field in 1980 or '81 or '82. He coached at Beatrice and I at Lincoln High. Beatrice won. His jacket is orange.

No photo description available.

The Bomber is still living in Lincoln.  I usually see him once a year.
He attends more Husker baseball games than anything these days.

He gave up his season football tickets and his season volleyball tickets a few years ago.
Great guy and could talk some X's and O's

His brother stayed in coaching  - He coached at 8 different schools across Texas and 2 schools in Nebraska.

Finished up at Odessa

Congrats to him.  He must have finally figured out the correct combination of meds...
