[Husker] Suh for Heisman

[C Jolly]

I caught your reference to Tommy and the Nobel, but your reference to a 
line to the lyrics from Shaft came from way out in left field and had no 
connection to the topic.  Therefore I could only surmise that you were 
telling me "to shut my stupid mouth"  had no way to know that you were 
attempting "to be funny".  In order for humor (or satire for that 
matter) to be appreciated it has to be timely and germane to the issue. 
Your statement was neither.
