[Husker] Joe Dailey, UNC QB, vs Virginia Tech

[Lee]

AMEN AMEN AMEN

I have really noticed how the list has changed and do a lot of deletes. I 
used to spend hours reading it : how bout that Red Clad Loon EH! BOY I MISS 
HIM and the tears rolling down my cheeks from laughter and "oh yeah" the 
pain in my neck from laughter also: I could really stand some of that agin.

I do enjoy reading what is going on with Frank, Bo, Turner and could we all 
pray that Tommy Frazier gets Doane going. I really agonize over what is 
going on with him: he is just to near and dear to our hearts to read about 
what is not happening for him.

Argument by analogy is tantamount for forfeit.

News and comments are one thing, gratuitous bashing is quite another.

This is an excellent point. By and large the HuskerList has ceased
discussing the actual games and has devoted itself to discussing
personalities.

Saw part of the game and agree that he didn't play as well as he
should; however, "horrible" is hardly the correct adjective to use in
analysis.

Could any objective observer conclude that this kind of personal
attack on a former Husker is anything but petty and mean-spirited?
