[Husker] Game Thoughts

[Jeff Spilinek]

Three points, and then I'm done screaming...   :-)

1)  The ORIGINAL screaming I posted was minutes after the game, not days
later.  You brought it up again, not me.  

2)  The analogy works.  Explain why it doesn't.  

3)  Callahan is not a sacred cow that cannot be questioned.  That's one
purpose behind this list:  to cuss and discuss the sport and our team.

G'night....

Sorry, the analogy just doesn't work. Analogies never do.

More analogies yet!

We all screamed. Some of us think it's time to stop screaming now.      :-)
