If memory serves, sportsline.com is / was cbs.sportsline.com, and Nebraska
never seems to get a break from that particular network.  Remember Bernie
Goldberg and his ambush of Coach Osborne (before Bernie saw the light and
started reporting on the bias of his colleagues, though I must have missed
his apology to Dr. Tom in my first read of Bernie's books).
