[Husker] Perlman gives Pederson a vote of confidence

[jonlists at cbsol.com]

Being known for a good football team isn't anything to be embarassed 
about. 

What's Iowa known for? Hogs? Rather be them? 
Colorodo - the Rockies. God had more to do with that than the people. 
Kansas - what are they known for? 
Minnesota has 10,000 lakes. 

Go through all the states... and think of each, and while each has it's 
own unique flavor, landmark, culture, whatever - football ain't so bad. 

Seriously - pick only one thing for each state. What would you pick?
