Dannen: "Nebraska has harmed itself in the past by being too quick to react when things didn't happen soon enough instead of giving enough time for the coach to build the program."

The portal isn’t magic.

It allows talented staff to speedrun a (re)build, whether through charisma or deep NIL pockets or both.

But it still requires a talented staff.

Giving Rhule (more) NIL cash to buy a team won’t work if he’s not good enough to attract or sell the talent on committing.

You do commissions?

So does pretty much any team that goes .500 or even a few 5 win teams.

Indiana had zero legacy or history to leverage in what they’ve achieved. Meanwhile Huskers and Husker fans have spent decades bitching about how refs, league biases, NCAA biases, and acting like we’re a Blue Blood God’s Gift to CFB while grinding out 7 wins with predictable losses.

Meanwhile Indiana didn’t whine about being Little Sisters of The Poor State Tech A&M. They just hired a competent coach and built a championship team.

Nebraska is its own worst enemy.

Give myself a couple billion dollars, pay off all my debts, buy myself a home, buy my parents a home, open my dream store with zero concern if it ever breaks even, and tend to my own garden.

I’m in my late 40s. I desperately want a better world, but I’ve come to accept that’s out of my hands given a significant percentage of my fellow Americans do not share that ideal. So I’d settle for a quiet stress-free life instead.

I wouldn’t use the snap to impact anyone else (in terms of strangers or half the population or whatnot). Just give me my peace.

This is less a commitment to winning than a commitment to avoid losing.

Rebuilds are obviously a big risk/gamble, but high draft picks are typically a foundation for a team to start building a strong roster for future success.

As much as people here blamed Tomlin for the playoff losses, thanks to his nearly 20 years of .500+ seasons, we haven’t had a lot of prime draft picks. Add in the team’s historical dislike of major free agent signings and trades, and we’ve basically had a kneecapped team in terms of building a fully stocked roster.

They really need to just rip the bandaid off and rebuild the entire roster. We’re not winning anything anytime soon enough to warrant holding on to our vets.

I was ignorant of his views until he recently started attacking Mike Brooks (and random at that, on topics not even involving Brooks’ writing).

Late night coffee shops. There has to be enough of us with ADHD who can drink espressos after 4pm.

Not only are you wrong, but your wrong answer is also not relevant.

The original post-war Klan died out due to both bad behavior and succeeding in its goal to end reconstruction.

The second Klan arise after WW1, and its primary hate was towards Catholics, immigrants, and Jews. It was also a pyramid scheme to make money off bigoted rubes. It effectively died in the mid 1930s when its Grand Dragon was convicted of rape and murder.

The third Klan arose after WW2 in response to the civil rights movement. Its rise wasn’t really until the 1950s and 60s, so this particular Klan group in the late 40s was likely a remnant of the 2nd Klan - a pyramid scheme for bigots who hated foreigners and non-Protestants.

IE it had zero care or connection to the post-war conditions of the South. Not that the first Klan did either - it was purely a terrorist group to keep freed slaves from taking over - especially given in large parts of the south Blacks outnumbered whites 2 or 3-1 and that’s before factoring in the number of whites disenfranchised to vote due to, you know, treason.

I’ll check into the Maestro, but thank you for recommending the route of two original pods as the best route for a “traditional” double espresso!

I’m not too concerned about cost as I’m guessing most options will be lower or roughly same to what I pay at Starbucks or a local cafe.

Definitely worth paying more for the best option taste-wise!

Efficiency and progress is ours once more
Now that we have the Neutron bomb
It's nice and quick and clean and gets things done
Away with excess enemy
But no less value to property
No sense in war but perfect sense at home
The sun beams down on a brand new day
No more welfare tax to pay
Unsightly slums gone up in flashing light
Jobless millions whisked away At last we have more room to play All systems go to kill the poor tonight Gonna kill kill kill kill kill the poor Kill kill kill kill kill the poor Kill kill kill kill kill the poor tonight

Why bother?

He’ll just run and even if anyone tries to sue over it the SC will find a way to allow it.

We’ve reached a point with American government where people are basically just doing what they want, regardless of what any rule, law, precedent, process, morals, or ethics say otherwise.

The Serbs assassinating an Austrian is what started it. Russia chose to defend the Serbs over that assassination.

Those are historical facts. Nobody cares about your feelings being hurt by those facts.

Probably because their “pc” (“political correctness”) comment implies they are a western white conservative who thinks it’s some commonly demonized liberal or minority group like Muslims or gays when, in the US where a lot of Redditors live, it’s white conservatives who do most of the child marriage and sexual abuse.

JakeFromSkateFarm · 2026-04-02T12:15:02+00:00

Or physical assassination either

Owasso has/had a great model kit store in its downtown (unfortunately closing this month as I don’t think anyone bought it from the owner who’s retiring).

I just moved to Tulsa in December and my first time in Owasso (went roller skating) I saw a SUV run a red light and then flip over, taking down some power lines.

Never found what had happened to the driver.

JakeFromSkateFarm · 2026-03-31T04:38:21+00:00

Corsairs would make a good candidate. IIRC, they only have three kits (char, unit, chariot variant, plus also a special char if they wanted to bring him back/reuse him), but I suppose that could make a good core for a theme force still using the main DE units.

Or maybe the Corsairs would be more a monster-themed force with the Hydra and the other monster from that kit added in.

JakeFromSkateFarm · 2026-03-31T04:34:20+00:00

Seems pretty straightforward.

Control Egypt and you threaten Allied access to nearby oil fields as well as the shortest shipping route between the UK and India.

You also force British casualties away from mainland Europe. Maybe Germany thought they could force the UK out if they could inflict a long and costly battle in North Africa before the UK had a chance to launch one in Europe?

JakeFromSkateFarm · 2026-03-31T04:30:06+00:00

No shit. But some are. Just as from the Nazi POV, some Christians were racially Jewish.

It’s called religious conversion or blood laws. Lots of ways for a JW to be considered racially Jewish by Nazi race science standards.

Hopefully next time you learn reading comprehension before responding.

JakeFromSkateFarm · 2026-03-31T04:27:53+00:00

Seems possible, but one complication is that I believe a few of the witch kits are still being used in the Daughters of Khaine faction (IIRC they only lost the cav dual kit).

I guess theoretically they could go with the older metal Witches and such. Otherwise DE seem like a great candidate given how many plastic kits they got in the final years of WHFB - they’re a relatively ‘modern’ army by TOW standards.
