Leave it to Niles Paul to make things about him. His two dropped TDs and four overall had a huge hand in losing the game for his team against Texas. Now, apparently, he has somehow gotten the Omaha World-Herald to print apologetic columns backing him. Please.

It was the third time in two years. But, now it's all about how unfair it is that he is persecuted by his hometown fans.

The main reason for all the flack is that Nebraskans don't like whiners. Whiners who are overhyped. Whiners who don't produce. Whiners who talk ab
out how prime time they are, when they in fact couldn't hold the jock of two recent receivers who just shut up and played. Todd Peterson and Nate Swift. Fans never heard a peep out of them. They also never heard NU's better playmakers whining about touches or mean fans...not Roy Helu, not Rex Burkhead, not Brandon Kinnie.

Shut up and produce, or go away.

Attention Cornhusker fans: we always have been told by Shawn Watson that we are not smart enough to know why our offensive playmakers never get the ball. Now, apparently, starting WR/TE Mike McNeill is just as dumb as we are. He just doesn't understand the whole picture. We get it now. Somehow, Tom Osborne could always get it to mediocre tight ends for big yardage, but Watson can never get it to a supposed all-american caliber tight end. Twats at his finest. Please fire him soon.

And finally this morning, the OWH's Lee Barfknecht will help run the apologist campaign for Niles Paul, but as always, jumped on his first chance to show how 'objective' he is by dropping NU to fifth in his Big 12 rankings. Fifth, after losing to his supposed second-ranked B12 outfit. Fifth, behind two pretenders in Okie State and Mizzou. Did he miss the OSU-Texas A&M game where both teams proved they were awful? This should be expected with Mizzou, however, as Barfknecht has always had a man crush on Blain Gabbert despite the fact that every pass he throws is five yards and that he pisses the bed as soon as he gets roughed up a tad.

PS--And this just in. Now there is too much pressure for NU to play well at home. After 50 years of playing great, it is just too much to ask. What a joke.
