Yikes. That pic is horrendous.
I can only guess they sought out the worst pic possible as it is nearly impossible to "accidentally" find one that bad.

Agreed.

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

Nah, he's just Canadian, eh?

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

Not that it's the case here, but gay men get married to women all the time.

I am not a gay basher, to each his own. But come on, this guy SCREAMS gay. He is the best player in the world though bar none and I have total respect for him. I don't care if he is or isn't, just thought I would point out how off guard this took me. Everyone I know thought he was gay. Even my gay boss thought he was, he likes him (said that as I puked in my mouth).

I think I read somewhere that he spent ~400K in buy ins over the course of the year...

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

Tony Soprano is gay??!!

Man, the things you learn on this forum.

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

Daniel's had one heck of a year, no doubt.

Looking over his stats for the last three years.....he's pocketed 86% of the total combined earnings this year alone. It's nice when you increase your previous earnings by 12.5 from the year before and almost 49 times what you made two years ago.

Now that's what I call picking up your game.

I am pretty sure that Erik Lindgren won the WPT player of the year for season 2.

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

I think he is talking about year 3 which is barely 1/2 over.

Now if only the SLOWSKERS could keep a real preseason opponent on their schedule...recruit some actual speed and talent...develop it...win a few games...get to a real bowl...and win it. Then Neb would be cooking with gas wouldnt they.

Heh. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] I'm more than willing to cut them some slack. New coach, lot of new staff, and a brand new style of offense from the old power run football. Even with an under .500 season, I'd still match their overall record over the last 35 years up against just about anybody.

Do they even play football with helmets and pads in Jamaica? I thought you'd be more familar with the version that has a bunch of guys running around mindlessly kicking a spotted ball and trying to slide into each other. Hell, they can't even use their hands....what fun is that? [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Hijacking over.

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

Don't forget he is also one of the best live player games too. This guy PwNs any poker game he plays and right now I think only Phil Ivey comes to close to matching up with him in terms of talent and pure skill, only thing is Ivey hasn't been on the tourney circuit much.

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

Ya their record of ducking real opponents till bowls is absolutely amazing... Iowa, Ohio St and a few other programs have begged to play home and homes with NU in their programs primes...Neb prefers to play programs with name recognition but lil talent left in the coffers (see ND Penn st in last few yrs).

I could sit here and analyze all those recent empty 9-10 win teams but we both know Neb plays about one or two tough teams every yr(and lately loses badly)...YOU ARENT FOOLING ANYONE.

Their lack of success lately has much more to do with a genuine lack of talent and athleticism than with any coaching change. The problem is the same one with ND recently. Namely THERE IS NO IN STATE TALENT ESPECIALLY IN STATE SPEED. Now that Ou and Texas are back as conference powers and are recruiting like it the future of recruiting is very very bleak for the Slowskers. The outlook for the next decades really couldnt be bleaker for any established football power...

On top of all that Trev Alberts is an Alum and that ight be the worst news of all...

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

zaxx,

I'm not looking to get into an argument with you about the strength of the Nebraska Cornhusker football program. If you have a deep seeded need to slam a team that I like then so be it. Hell I've lived in the heart of Texas....you don't think people give me [censored] for being a Husker?

All I know is that they ended up the '04 season with a 5-6 record and though they didnt play some of the teams you mentioned, they did play against some that were nationally ranked.

I also know that from 1994-2004 they have a 113-28 win loss record, have been ranked nationally in the top 20 nine out of those eleven seasons, and ranked in the top 10 nationally seven out of eleven.

Between '93-'97 they went undefeated during regular season play four out of five years ('93 11-1 lost the Orange Bowl, '96 11-2 won the Orange Bowl).

They won a national championship title in 1994(13-0),1995(12-0), and 1997 (13-0). Not to mention the other two that they had from the Devaney years.

So though it's true they might not be the team they were a few years ago, I'm not a fair weather fan and am willing to give them time to regain some of their prominence.

I'm not sure how old you are (and don't care), but based on your hyper-aggressive tone suffice it to say I have probably been a Husker fan longer than you've been alive.

My only point to that statement is....nothing you say is going to make me change my mind. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]


Husker66 "fan since 1966- that's a long time!"

All I know about this thread is that I met my girlfriend of 2.5 years and counting due to her undying Husker hatred (her evil, Nebraska-loving roommate kicked her out during the Nebraska game, so she found a spot to watch the Michigan game next to the TV I was sitting at. Yay!) and that the AD backing out of playing Houston was really, really low.

Oh yeah, Negreanu. I hear he had a good year, right?

See, good things come to those that wait. (I think)

Oh, and yes Daniel did really well too.

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

I dont care if they were 150-2 ...the point is they always have gone out of their way to avoid talented programs and thats bad for college football. Programs like Kstate NU and VT(ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE BEEFED UP THE SCHEDULE OF LATe) pull down all of college football by making pre-conference play a complete farce.

How low has Nu gone as a program when they begin to duck the likes of Houston...?? Thats truly sad.

Im a die hard Ohio St fan (insert ESPN dirty program BS here..) and while I am probably not as old as you I was a fan way back when they were playing Air Force in the Liberty bowl. Oh, by the way, Texas and Ohio St will be playing a home and home in the next 2 yrs...have fun watching 2 real programs hooking up without fear of a L on the record for the love of the game and enjoyment of the fans. BOOOO for cowardly programs like NU playing cupcake schedules then pretending like their hollow 8-10 victories mean something.

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

Did Danny go to Nebraska or something? Or did I wander into the Sports Betting forum by mistake?

To the ignore list with thee, O irrelevant one.

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

Negreanu is the man... have to love a guy that can dominate both the WPT and NBA live 2003 [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Daniel Negreanu\'s 2004 - Wow.
 

Yah one of the most impressive things is that he can live up to his own in the "Big Game," although he has a much larger edge in tournaments.
