  As a rule I tend to like Skylar's posts, but in this case it seems 
to me that he has gone off on a tangent.

It seems wrongheaded to add insult to the injury/injuries the players 
are suffering from at this moment. No one on this list, and I mean NO 
ONE, is feeling greater disappointment and heartsickness than these 
lads.

At this point, to withdraw any support from them would be the 
greatest injustice to any Husker team in my lifetime, which happens 
to cover considerable mileage.

Blame the coaches - - support the kids.
