I've given up on the manual. My Jeep might be the last manual I own unless I start getting into classic cars.
I still love it. I don't like automatic transmissions. They don't seem to do what I want and expect them to do, when I want and expect them to do it. I know what gear I want, and when, and I'm happy to take the responsibility of selecting it.
But they're just becoming so hard to find in anything other than sports cars--which at 6'5" and now >40 yo, I don't want to be climbing in and out of.

I've got my jeep with manual.

I wouldn't call 24-19 in 2014 at Jacksonville a pounding

but, back in  69 in the Sun bowl, it was 45-6 Huskers over the Dawgs

Liberals are so tolerant that they're tolerating intolerance.  Yes, everyone should be respected...until they show they don't deserve your respect.  And no, not all ideas, even deeply-held, are correct.  Sorry, not sorry.

That '69 game was interesting.  Nebraska lost late and fell out of the Cotton Bowl and the Sun Bowl was all that was left against a rather mediocre Georgia team.  But Vince Dooley was so impressed with the Husker player's strength, he starts a "strength program" at Georgia.
Yes, back then the players "lifted" on their own however much they wanted with little or no guidance.

2nd saturday afternoon/eve in a row NBC has had on some soccer,rugby or some other irksome exercises.Turn on ESPN2 this morning and some South American soccer.Hey network wonks those games are for giving the kids purpose and tiring them out for the folks sake.Stick with the time honored traditions of the Major League Pennant races and College grid iron action - idjits.Put the other crap on ESPN 8 or FS 5

Stirring the pot: With MSU dropping disappointing losses we’re having to hear how they’re one of this season’s most injured programs. We’ll last year during their big turn-around season we endlessly heard how young they were. So what gives? Spartans will still beat Michigan.

I was bullish on Sparty pre-season, but I was also bullish on Northwestern

they've both dropped games that I didn't expect

plenty of season left to show their true colors
