I would like to use most of the existing infrastructure and build a 2nd bridge to turn it into one large roundabout.

We will. Move to small town Midwest if you want 2-story buildings everywhere.

Bring back Murray Warmath, Judge Dixon, Sandy Stephens, Carl Eller.....that might fill up the place :) I went to a couple games at the old stadium on campus in the late 60s while going to grad school at UM.....what was the name of that field? "go-go-gopher it" is the only cheer I remembe...

The Metrodump is not a place that you can create a college fanfare atmosphere. Â It's a big cave and yes, not having an on-campus stadium that you call your own is a huge deal, a few reasons: -There have been several gametimes that have had to be changed to Friday night games in the past due to The ...

We went to Schlitterbahn in New Braunfels for opening weekend last year. Â Top-notch facility, and the tidal river was one of the highlights for us. Â We spent a full day at the water park and tried to only go down the rides one time each and even at that, we were only able to get to 1/2 the park. Â...

They have the final renderings up for the stadium now... It is impressive! I can't wait to go up there for opening day.

It was a good start... but I'm not sure even 76 pts makes up for the decades of humiliation which Kansas suffered at the hands of NU year in and year out. Perhaps Big E can run those decade by decade numbers as well. Well, if you look at the 36 game win streak from 1969 to 2004, you'll find that N...

Good thing Callahan got that contract extension after beating Nevada. Husker fans, your future is what Minnesota is like now. They have more national championships than you, but have been terrible for the last 35 years, no more tradition. That is what you have to look forward to, enjoy. Don't even ...

What I would do is try to identify the next great coach who's currently in a league like the MAC, Mountain West, or even I-AA. Gary - I totally agree with you. Â That's why it's my belief that Craig Bohl at NDSU will be the next coach of your beloved Huskers. Â Bohl's team is currently #1 in D1-AA ...

And I don't think a connection to the CB casinos is at all necessary, nor do I think it will ever happen. I bet that if Omaha had a light rail, the Casinos would pay for the entire Iowa side of the system if they could be tied in to it. [justify][right] I agree with you 100% Brad. Â I have always t...

What you are forgetting is that for UNO to make the jump to 1-AA, they'd need to invest some serious money into facitilites - Caniglia Field just won't cut it for a D-1 program.

Yes, the Vikings have a new arena. I thought the MetroDome was kind of retro. By the way, Husker fans, here is a team that you can throw all of your titles at. I suggest you do better research on who's won the most National Championships in college football: Minnesota = 6 (1934, 1935, 1936, 1940, 1...

It would make sense for Ameritrade to rebuild right where they are currently located, at the Southroads site, or even just to the south at the No Frills / Richman Gordman location.

You can't bring someone to Omaha and not have them try a slice of Omaha's Best pizza. It may not be an Omaha invented food but we have tons of great local pizza places that are worth bragging about.

It was an awesome interview. It definately made me like Lee Terry more to see him in this limelight (as it would IMHO if any politician could show humor in this way).

Do you honestly think that this town could support another D1 basketball program? Depends... Are they a winner? Omaha couldn't support ONE until Creighton started winning.

Actually, since the cost of new buildings is growing higher and higher, the Vikings may be stuck with a refurbished Metrodome...

Not sure if you all caught this, but Minneapolis is building two new sports stadiums... one for the Twins, and one for the Gopher football team. Both stadiums are long overdue...

If Lincoln decides to build a new arena, I would suggest that they build something similar to Ralph Englestad Arena in Grand Forks, ND.
