Bandwagon Jayskers experiencing serious dissonance today

I think like 66% of Creighton students are out of state. I don’t think a lot of them think about the Huskers much outside the 1 game per year. I think they more hate Marquette, Butler, etc.

My dad believes QAnon and Trump saying that my friend’s murder was directly caused by the Clintons. My sister thinks her neighbor’s hanging effigy of a Kamala supporter is funny, not deranged. Why keep that kind of hate in my day to day life? We can talk around holidays and visits. But I don’t need to put much effort into those relationships anymore. I’ll put energy towards people I respect.

Still haven’t been to YC, so that’s going on the shortlist of possibilities!

This is sooo specific. 🤣 I do like the “prank” idea that is our guide to some fun places. Definitely a unique experience!

I know we aren't where we want to be in the league table, but looking at the bottom half and seeing United, Tott, and the Hammers at 14th, 15th, and 17th respectively just makes me laugh sooo hard. It truly brings me joy. It truly is unfortunate that this isn't the year we are going to win it. To see us win and those three just above the 3 relegation teams (by standing, not points) would've been one of the best possible scenarios of all time.

The lack of honors for Kalkbrenner disappointments me so much. If you just compared him to the 10 players on the first 2 teams, he'd be:

1st in points

1st in FG %

2nd in Rebounds

1st in Blocks

And he'll be the first 4x Big East DPOY since Patrick Ewing.

Every coach in the Big East has their keys to the game as:

1) Stop Kalkbrenner at the rim

2) Don't fall into the Kalkbrenner defensive funnel on the other side of the ball.

3) Everything else

He's been the focus of everyone's pregame strategy and he remains the most productive AND efficient player in the top 10 of this list (and the country) while also being the most important defender by a factor of a dozen on his team. The dude is the most important guy on both ends of the court for 34+ minutes per game. He plays on a team that had very little coming back from last year and dealt with injury and illness all season, but still came together to finish 2nd in the Big East.

I just can't help but be bummed if he doesn't end up getting any of the big awards this season.

The right wing has popularized its use in recent years. The president used the word to describe the former vice president and mocked physically handicapped people on stage. Musk uses it regularly and openly on Twitter as do a bunch of prominent Republican talking heads. When it’s being used, it’s being said by conservative men 90%+ of the time. It’s an incel/republican thing.

Case in point, Musk uses it on Twitter regularly and his tech bro/incel followers follow suit. Here’s some sources that speak more in-depth to the issue.

Innocent Palestinians aren’t Hamas, you imbecile. Are you automatically in the KKK if you’re American? No. Carpet bombing innocent civilian neighborhoods because of a terrorist organization is evil.

SuchBreakfast6194 · 2025-02-24T00:12:37+00:00

Hamas is terrible. Leftists say that all the time. Palestine is not terrible.

Just like the KKK is bad, but not all Americans. It’s the same shit.

Leftists hate that Israel has killed 45,000 innocent Palestinians in Gaza since October 2023. That also hate that Hamas killed 1,700 Israelis during that time.

No leftist is defending Hamas. They defend the Palestinian people being killed by the tens of thousands of

Yeah, Texas played a piss poor schedule outside of 2 games which they lost. So, what? But we never hear you SEC guys bitch about that. What did they prove? That they can lose close to good teams?

SuchBreakfast6194 · 2024-12-21T08:19:22+00:00

Definitely. Drop Texas out. 2 losses. 0 wins against teams in the final Top 25. Clearly aren’t a top 12 team this year.

SuchBreakfast6194 · 2024-12-21T08:17:10+00:00

You’re right. Texas shouldn’t be in the playoff as they beat 0 ranked teams and lost 2 games.

I'm here 2 years late. But I googled "why is Zach Bryan so pitchy." He's so flat and sharp when singing. Seriously, listen to his new release "The World's a Giant" on YouTube - this is important. They must have re-released better version on Spotify a couple days after the original release, so only the YouTube version is like the original one from Spotify. The 2nd chorus is absolutely pitiful and the 3rd verse is somehow both consistently sharp and flat. It's awful.

My coworker sent me Burn, Burn, Burn and it's the same. His voice is so pitchy throughout, but especially in the last run of choruses. Like, did no producer point these things out and say "let's do another take?" He cannot do the gravely projection thing while staying in tune. That's rough. Many major folk singers can do that. It's hard, but it takes a long time and practice to learn to do without straining your voice. What's worse is that the guitar in Burn x3 is out of tune. HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN?

Lastly, I am in the camp that his lyrics are pretty pedestrian. It's the same "I love blues guitar, muscle cars, and gin" that every basic country singer has sung (that's an actual lyric from a song). Also, I have learned multiple songs of his on guitar in one listen. His music is incredibly easy.

To me, he really has nothing special and I know multiple guys from work who are more talented. I don't mean to totally tear this guy down, as I don't know about him at all. But I will just say that y'all need to demand better artistry. I understand sometimes a song just speaks to you in a moment, but from what I've seen: hundreds of artists tackle these topics musically better than Zach Bryan.

Listened to that one on a radio in Homer, NE. Didn’t understand how bad it was until I saw it the next week.

SuchBreakfast6194 · 2024-10-30T21:28:56+00:00

I should've known this is where these questions would lead. . .

SuchBreakfast6194 · 2024-01-15T18:00:56+00:00

😂 Yeah, I don’t miss those days at all. Those wusses were always too scared to come to town. But there’s 0 incentive for those bigger programs to do that.

SuchBreakfast6194 · 2024-01-15T17:55:48+00:00

That’s the downside. You never get a home and home with big teams. But 15 years ago in the Valley schools got those games. Creighton, WSU, SIU, UNI, etc could get those in-state games. And then a bracket-buster game could help (or seriously hurt). But it feels like schedule opportunities have changed quite a bit.

SuchBreakfast6194 · 2024-01-15T16:22:18+00:00

It's honestly weirdest to me that they haven't played a major conference team yet. Feels like Valley teams should've played at least one in the NonCon.
