[Husker] A Supreme effort

I don't understand that sort of sentiment, as if it's some
sort of party.  It's certainly not "cool" to hate Bill Callahan.
Regardless of your opinion on Callahan's success as Husker coach
(and I say that as someone who often has posted criticisms),
your signature line reflects a sad, small, juvenile attitude.

Those closest to Bill Callahan as Husker coach, have good things
to say about the type of man he is, e.g.,  [Courtney] Grixby said:
"The players, we trust him.  We know Coach Callahan and we know
the type of man that he is. There's nothing bad to say."

Callahan's daughter is a classmate and friend of my daughter.
They are a nice family.  This must be a gut-wrenching time for
coaches and players.

I suggest you think about TR Roosevelt's often quoted speech:
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the
strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them
better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives
valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is
no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive
to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who
spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the
triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at
least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with
those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

You should be ashamed of yourself.
