Go to the Nebraska 2015 thread and go back a couple pages and a couple folks quoted the post so you can see the deleted post and then all the follow up posts that have not been deleted. It was a little blown out of proportion because it is off-season and nothing else going on.

It was a little blown out of proportion because it is off-season and nothing else going on. Okay, I did a quick read. It was somewhat dull. But in all fairness, I probably read it too fast to fully appreciate its entertainment value.

WTF is this apology all about? lol. Here is the abridged Cliffnotes version of what happened: The OP made assertions that the Husker boosters were fraudulently giving money under the table to the players. There were also some unreasonable cracks at Coach Cook and Dorothy, after he put the OP in his place and made him realize that there are a couple of ways of presenting opinions and facts. He told the OP that it was entirely inappropriate to indict another program with absurd and unmerited opinions presented as facts. Some fans from around the country got involved, siding with Nebraska, because it was clear that the OP’s claims were baseless and egregiously abusive. Then there was a quote from Yoda, and that seemed to calm things down. The next morning, the OP apologized with this thread and deleted his comments from the prior night.

Cliffnote version would have been.......As the VT World Turns.

How about ignoring obvious stupidity ? By responding to buffoonery with anger and incredulousness, aren't you just propping up and publicizing the buffoon's flawed opinion and in many cases giving them more credibility ? Best to just pat them on the head, move on and add something smart to the conversation instead of using up valuable bandwidth dumbing down the site by endless replies to pure ignorance. If one was to ignore all buffoonery on this board, one would not have very few to respond to, much less converse with. Seems somewhat boring, by my estimation.

I have been told by Dorothy Mantooth that I know nothing about volleyball so I decided to prove it. You firmly put me in my place without too much hesitation and I now stand corrected. In truth I am a little envious of the great support (in a good way) that you provide for your team. I do enjoy the fun we have chatting about vb and am still learning the sport that has become my obsession. When are you going to apologize to Sarah Pavan?

What about the rumors that thousands of dollars elderly people sent in for starving orphans was hand-delivered by Sally Struthers to John Cook so he could recruit transfers?
How in hell can anyone justify that?
For shame, Big Red, for shame.

In all seriousness, you (not you tomclen, but people in general) need to be very very careful about which charitable organizations you support. You'll be shocked at how they spend your money.

The boring B1G’s not my cup of tea (sans Bucks, too). A Cube is to be bored also so this ones’ for him. A favorite team’s listed below *with some type of variety*. Yawning is appropriate. B1G doesn’t even offer sand. Yeah, sorry Huskers fans. East of the Mississippi is waaay yonder with little to be desired...
Some of thee highlights over the past years. I started from 2010 cause in '09 the Bows went to the BIG (not B1G) Dance. ---
-2010- Top 20’s UH vs. USD:
-2011- Top 10’s UH vs. USC; Regional Semis (unfortunately): *If anyone has the link for this match please send to youtube, thx (I’d like to re-watch, for some time now)
-2012- UH vs. all-world Alumnae:
-2013- UH vs. Top 5 Texas (#1 preseason)
-2014- UH vs. T-9th Oregon (all Americans and fabulous frosh’s)

And the puppy stew? I suppose you're going to say that's not true, too?
