      Hmm, interesting.  I am not sure any of this really matters.  I 
really don't care if Herbie likes the Huskers or not.  I don't know that 
the 97 Huskers aren't the third best of all time.  I think even NU has 
had better teams than the 97 team.  I am not understanding why that is a 
problem.  Maybe I am just dense I don't know.
