Default 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]

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.

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.

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.
