Bob,

I understand your sentiments. Football does get the lion's share of
attention on this list (and most other Husker sports-related sites and
lists). For me, though, it has nothing to do with money .. I happen to
enjoy football as my #1 sport. Of course I like to see Husker
accomplishments in other sports acknowledged and celebrated as
appropriate, but I definitely spend more time thinking and opining
about football more than the others. It's not a slight on the other
programs and their student-athletes or ardent followers, that's just
how it falls out for me.
