@hovah76 I’m very disappointed in myself for having read this

This is what many people fail to realize: It is FAR more difficult for a RICH kid to make it to the NBA, or the NFL than it is for a POOR kid. This is why 95% of the athletes in the NFL and the NBA come from either poor, or lower middle-class families. You see these idiots talking about “Nepo babies,” and athletes only achieving success because of their rich fathers. You folks have no clue. When you are a poor kid, the pain of watching your mother suffer is what DRIVES you. This pain robs you of sleep at night. It DRIVES you to WORK when all of your teammates are just enjoying life. Deion Sanders was a high school star athlete in FOUR sports: Baseball, basketball, track, AND football. He WORKED year-round. He sacrificed his youth. Why? He watched his mother work three jobs. He saw his mother tired and struggling to get rest. The PAIN of watching his mother suffer DROVE him to the NFL AND to the Major Leagues. Lebron’s mother gave birth to him at 16. He watched her struggle. He worked his butt off to save her. He was great at football AND basketball. He was determined to rescue his mother. When he signed his deal with Nike coming out of high school, his FIRST order of business was to move her out of the low-income housing projects. ____________________________________ Bronny James does not HAVE to play basketball. His father owns a massive business enterprise. He could quit basketball tomorrow to either start his own businesses, or to become the VP of his father’s businesses. Shedeur Sanders does not HAVE to play football. He could leave football tomorrow to open up a chain of businesses if he wished to. He had that option coming out of college. _____________________________________ These guys are not driven by pain or poverty. They are driven by their individual desires to be great, and their competitive natures. These guys are also cursed by the greatness of their fathers. Their accomplishments will be overlooked by both the media and the general public because they will always be measured against the successes of their fathers. This adds enormous pressure. When you grow up rich, poor athletes envy you. They hate you. They go at your throat because they can’t be you. They save their best efforts for YOU. They try to break you before you make it. They want to see you fail. Surviving these attacks, along with the pressures of the national media that comes with being the descendants of greatness requires a great deal of heart and mental toughness. This explains why Bronny and Shedeur are mentally and physically as tough as they come.

@OhitismeKH @HuskerSuperFan4 Bigger than we were last year

@HuskerSuperFan4 Seems little short no?

Current #Nebrasketball Starting lineup (As it stands on 4/18/26 at 0853) 6’5” 38 3pt% 6’7” 40 3pt% 6’7” 35 3pt% 6’9” 40 3pt% 6’11 34 3pt% Hard to guard.

@basketball47783 @SNYUConn Yes they look very close

@Coach_shizzle @SNYUConn well she’s straight and her old teammate who had surgery..also posted this publicly on her Instagram profile lmao

Paige Bueckers spent some time with Nika Mühl in Croatia 💙🤍 (via paigebueckers/IG)

@GenTXer2 What a great band. Loved so many of their songs but it’s weird I didn’t like New Sensation when it came out but now it’s one of my favorites

Let's give this band some love: Name ONE great song by INXS. I'll start..."Guns In The Sky"

@Nappyboy18 @SNYUConn Interesting choice of words

Huskies for life 💙🤍 Nothing better than seeing Paige and Nika linking up in Croatia. That backcourt chemistry didn’t end in Storrs. From Final Four runs to overseas vacations, they’ve always been locked in. UConn fans eating good this is the friendship content we needed. Off-season UConn reunion everything.

@basketball47783 @SNYUConn Can’t say that I care one way or the other but it does look a little deeper than just a friendship if I had to guess with knowing nothing. But now you let me know and it still looks a little deeper lol

@SNYUConn Nika is her best friend and sister…who just had surgery you guys are weird man

@horrormuseum Does he look like Bob Hope on Ozempic?

Do you agree that Death Proof is Quentin Tarantino's worst movie?

@RobinWashut Looks like we will be wearing the white jerseys this year

BREAKING: Utah Valley point guard Trevan Leonhardt has committed to Nebraska. 🌽🏀 The 6-5 senior was one of the top targets on the Huskers' portal board. Significant pick up. 🔗: on3.com/teams/nebraska…

@hovah76 Biggest muscle is the brain and mentality. LeBron doesn’t have that. Jordan and Kobe for sure did. Muscles don’t make you tough but he can lift a table easier so that’s cool

Years ago, the Detroit Pistons absolutely OWNED Michael Jordan for multiple seasons. Their game plan was simple: Mike is soft. If he drives to the basket hit him HARD. He hates hard fouls. They utilized this plan to perfection, beating the crap out of Mike over and over again. Eventually, a few things happened that changed this: 1. MJ went to David Stern, who was the commissioner of the NBA, crying about these hard fouls. 2. David Stern changed the rules to enable MJ to get his points off without the hard fouls. 3. (My opinion) MJ started using PED’s and lifting weights. He packed on 20lbs of muscle. _________________________________ I often hear people making stupid comments about how Lebron James would not have been as dominant in the 80’s and 90’s due to these hard fouls. 😂 Lebron James is 6’10/280lbs. He eats weights like most NBA players eat weed. THAT CRAP WOULDN’T WORK with LBJ!!!! Even AFTER using PED’s and lifting weights for years to go from 195 to 215, Michael Jordan was still smaller than LBJ was in HIGH SCHOOL!!!! (Them) “But Lebron is soft! He would not have been tough enough for the 80’s and 90’s!!” Soft???? The dude who was an All-State Wide Receiver in high school with FOOTBALL scholarship offers to Ohio State, Alabama, Miami, and Miami from running slants across the MIDDLE?!! SOFT???? Okay.

@Wthmoni 13

I see 10 and you ?? Be honest

@MeloniProject Interesting choice of wardrobe

Christopher Meloni on the cancelation of Organized Crime. “I want to take this moment to say thank you to the fans who not only helped give the character of Elliot Stabler life, sticking with him and welcoming him back. I had a great time playing him. It was a great ride.”

@flatland_sports I liked Arkansas in the league good games against Texas and the Aggies

I maintain that the Big 8 should have merged with the entirety of the SWC in 1995 to create the Big 16.

@Matt_Hill92 @SSN_Jays Absolutely agree with you. I think Traudts touch will come back if he isn’t expected to bang as much as he was this year

@SSN_Jays If Green can focus on being the three maybe a swing four, I think he will have an amazing season. Love that kid.

So now that the roster is (almost) set, we are looking at a lineup like: Davis/Harmon Enis/Swartz Greer/Green JMA/Traudt Oswin/Rosa This lineup will likely be better on defense, with Davis and Oswin being added, offense will be good like it usually is. Gotta stay healthy🙏

@FBGreatMoments Too many Longest Yard entries

Best fictional football players 🎥

@HuskerSuperFan4 I like Cale but if he is our starting PG we are in trouble

Current #Nebrasketball Rotation (As I see it without any more transfers) Starting 5: PG - Cale SG - Pryce SF - Braden PF - Orme C - Kepke Bench from most minutes to least Connor Leo Lanier Rice Not bad at all. Imo.

@VigilantFox Actually helps a lot to know his job isn’t to be funny

Jimmy Kimmel tells critics to stop telling him his job is to be funny. Says his job is “whatever I DECIDE my job is.” Suggests that if his comedy suffers because he wants to talk about Trump, then so be it. “I just can’t imagine on those nights talking about anything other than what we are talking about.” “I think it would be embarrassing if we didn’t talk about this stuff. It would be shameful.” “I love telling jokes. I love being funny. I love when the audience laughs… But well-rounded human beings don’t behave that way.” “And to say that, ‘Your job is this,’ I bristle at that.” “Because first of all, don’t tell me what my job is. I don’t tell you what your job is.” “My job is whatever I decide my job is or whatever my employer allows me to do. That’s what my job is.”

@TheExtremeMusi1 Primus

What BAND wouldn't be the SAME without THEIR bassist???

@RHULEROFNEB I’ll just trust you on the Jacobsen %. I did not like him shooting threes at all

Nebraska current starting lineup 3 Point FG % last year Sandfort 41.6% Frager 35.2% Orme 39.7% Transfer portal targets PG Trevan Leonhardt 36.8% C Drew Fiedler 40.9% Bench Essegian before injury 40.6% Cale Jacobsen 36.6% DANGEROUS EXCITING WHITES 🔥👀

@BrickCenter_ Defensive much? It’s a legit question just answer it instead of having a temper tantrum

Cathy Engelbert was PISSED when asked how much longer she’ll be the WNBA commissioner 😭 Cathy: “I wonder whether you would ask that of a man." Reporter: “I would.” 🤣

@sabastus84122 @TheSports_Shift I remember him looking so big. Not really anymore lol

@TheSports_Shift The Refrigerator
