Nebraska Joined Big Ten For The Wrong Reasons

Now being a Nebraska Cornhuskers fan when I heard they were moving to the Big Ten I gasped, and just shook my head. My fellow Big Ten friends told me how fortunate I should feel that Nebraska is coming to the best conference in the country. I did point out the Big Ten’s record in championship games is not exactly something to write home about.

When I heard all the reasons that Tom Osborne gave for leaving for the Big Ten it still did not put me at ease. The bottom line is Nebraska is leaving for the Big Ten for all the wrong reasons. The move is mostly for academics and money. It’s not about sports as the Big Ten has never really in recent years been a dominate conference in football or basketball. When the Big Ten tossed cash Nebraska’s way they jumped at the chance.

Yes, Nebraska will do fine in football and other sports in the Big Ten, but really what do they gain from it. A larger recruiting base, but the same teams will be the ones Nebraska will still have to beat to win a National Championship. The Oklahoma’s, Texas, and you pick the SEC team will still be in their way. Switching conferences will not change that. Nebraska switched for all the wrong reasons, but in the end we all know money was one of the biggest factors in it.

Tiger Woods Ready To Start New Golf Chapter

Tiger Woods says he feels better now than he has in years. It is great to say that, but will your golf game be the same way. Tiger has been recuperating for an assortment of injuries, so we will have to see if he is as good as he wants the public to believe. Woods fired his long-time caddie Steve Williams and has an old-time friend caddie for him. Now I think Woods will miss Williams a lot, but we will have to wait and see if it works out that way.

It has been nearly two years since Woods last won, and he's dealt with swing and injury issues for most of the interim. A year ago at this very tournament, Woods seemingly hit rock bottom when he shot 18-over par and finished 30 strokes behind winner Hunter Mahan. No matter what Tiger Woods tells himself or others it will all come down to what he does on the course. If he has a rough day he may pull the plug on his return early. We will have to wait and see how it works out for him.

Mom Time

Contribution by Stevie Kirby

Being a mom is definitely everything it’s cracked up to be if you ask me and it’s something I’ve waited for my whole life. When my first was born a few years ago I did everything by the book: I bought the most expensive diapers and formula, made sure he woke up as often as possible and even went toHttp://HOME-alarm-systems.com/ to get us an alarm. I thought I had it all under control! But that was all before the long nights with colic left me totally sleepy all the time and I got laid off from my job…the second baby sure made me chill out a bit! I realized that there’s more to being a good mom thank giving your baby a lot of stuff…they can’t appreciate it anyway. My son is just as happy playing with a stick as he is playing with some expensive toy so I think from now on I’m going to go a little lower end and see if they notice. I bet they sure won’t!
