[Husker] Honk If You Want to Play DB

[Dick Karre]

Todd,
You cannot know that unless you know the kids - and you don't. Simply
calling these young men names doesn't make it so. I'll say it again: your
argument - indeed, virtually all your arguments - is simply that whatever
Callahan does is wrong, whatever the objective evidence.
