Every Saturday, the Denver Post sports writers give a grade to (usually) the pro teams in Colorado.

 This week they included an out of state college program. Unusual, but you can see why.

Nebraska — F

There’s reality, and then there’s whatever is going on inside the state of Nebraska.

We got a taste of both this week when the Big Ten postponed its fall football season, and the University of Nebraska stomped its collective feet and declared the Huskers were playing anyway.

Exactly who their opponents would be — or how they could do so and also compete in a spring Big Ten season — was a mystery. And one, frankly, it appears they hadn’t even considered prior to throwing a university-wide tantrum.

Not a great look for a program that hasn’t delivered so much as a ham sandwich since joining the B1G in 2011. It’s one thing to be unified in purpose. It’s quite another to be unified in delusion.

For a group charged with being the adults on campus, NU’s coaches and administrators failed miserably.

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

Not sure why,

BUT, am still wearing the necklace. Has been a tradition, for over 30 years, to wear the necklace, 'for awhile', until I lose the feeling, of the beach, in Mexico. Can't say why, but, still have it on. "Tis a sad day, when I take it off, and am not ready to go there, yet. Don't ask. 'Tis an old tradition...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...
