[Husker] The era of the big red machine; I lived my life with is over today.

[todd strong]

This falls in line with my comments about players over the past couple 
years. I thought Thomas was the real deal too. I couldn't wait for him to 
get things going. But once he started telling me how good he was, well, I 
don't wanna hear it. The truly great ones never talk selfish smack like 
that. Many have made bold comments or predictions, yes, but nothing selfish 
and self centered. That goes for telling me how fast you are too. :)
