Re: Downtown core population- hits 7000. People moving downtown
I think it would be "Bad Business" for HyVee to put a store downtown anytime soon and I think they know it. There ain't no gold downtown. The gold is out there in those suburbs along 200th & something. Huge veins of gold are out there for the taking in West Omaha.

Re: Nebraska Football 2021
Its the same old story with this years version of the Huskers. Nebraska is the same unskilled, talent lacking poorly coached team we saw the past couple of years. The only clear advantage the Huskers have over Buffalo offensively is the running skills of Adrian Martinez. Nebraska will need Martinez ...

Oddsmakers have Nebraska as an 11 1/2 point favorite over Buffalo on Saturday. Buffalo thrashed their own cupcake team 69-7 this weekend. Yeah.... any plans to run out and bet on Nebraska giving away a touch down and a field goal sound risky. I think Buffalo should cover the point spread and they co...

Nebraska is a 40 point favorite this Saturday. This might just be the worst cup cake team Nebraska has ever played. This might be one of the few games this season where Nebraska covers the spread.
