PEOPLE OF NEBRASKA, PLEASE DO NOT KILL YOUR COACHES
I have tried to be polite. Now you must die.One incontrovertible rule of social dynamics is this: the more polite a society and the more structured it is, the more violent someone in said society will be once they snap. Take your average Japanese man placed under a varying amount of stress.
Stress level one, punched in nuts once: "I'm sorry. I'm so clumsy to run into your fist like that."
Stress level two, punched in nuts twice: "There I go again! Can I purchase a soft drink to smooth this rift between you and me?"
Stress level three, punched in nuts three times: "Oh, how funny! This is getting comical now. Let's duck into this stall and enjoy some delicious teppanyaki and discuss our families and fortunes together."
Stress level three, punched in nuts four times: "AAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!" (Stabs you to death with a thumbtack before paying to have your body shot into the sun.)
This seems to be the rule in Nebraska, a polite, farm-raised society of heartland folk who when pushed will be perfectly nice...right up to the point when you allow 76 points to Kansas in one of the worst losses in history. Then they threaten to toss you in a thresher and feed you to the cattle where you will never be found.
The caller, according to the warrant, left messages in which he expressed anger about the Jayhawks scoring 76 points against the Cornhuskers.
In one message, he ordered Cosgrove, Go back to where you (expletive) came from you (expletive), before I (expletive) kill ya, according to the warrant.
Oh, dear, that's impolite. Given the admitted tide of nastiness washing into Cosgrove's voicemail inbox over the past week, this must have sounded horrifying, like the ghost of Michael Ironside calling from deep in a well wearing a red Huskers' ski-mask. Either that, or Tom Osborne had Solich call in from an untraceable satellite phone outside of Athens, Ohio after a few margaritas.

Seriously. Not. Cool.
Nebraska fans are more pissed at this guy than at Cozgrove or Callahan. He’ll be up before capital charges in a month or so.
And we still use the chair.

As a native Nebraskan, I think I can safely speak for more than 99 percent of everyone in the state: This is ridiculous and disgusting. I’m sure it was some drunk, dimwitted douchebag who probably kicks his dog, beats his wife and verbally abuses his children too. That is, if anyone is dumb enough to get close to him.
Do we take our football seriously? Of course we do. I was at that game, as well as the 40-15 debacle in ‘05. Both times I, along with a majority of the other Cornhusker fans in attendance, applauded the Jayhawks on being the better team that day. That’s what we, true Cornhusker fans do.
Cosgrove and Callahan need to go, but on behalf of all in red, I’m sorry this dumbass claims to be a Husker fan. That is never acceptable. Here’s to hoping he is found and punished to the full extent of the law.

[standard disclaimer about how people should get a grip and not threaten violence over a college football game…]
Doesn’t this guy know that feeding slurry to cattle is how you spread mad cow disease? Although I suppose having a field full of cattle that fall over and can’t stop someone running at them would be a bit like the Husker defense this season.

Cows will lick the paint off pickup trucks if allowed to. This is a random fact we just wanted to mention here.

Jail time and prison rape is in order here.
Then, when the guy gets out, we can all call him up and laugh at him for not playing defense well enough to keep Bubba out of his end zone.

i got $20 that says it was the foul mouthed, underwear with dickhole wearin’, ash tray tastin’, bleach blonde husker fan from yesterday’s video.

Kevin Cosgrove must be really upset about those death threats. Still, it’s nothing a few motorboats from Nikki can’t fix right up.

Shameful. Hurts that it has come to this.
Chase Daniel nut-jabbing Coz’s confidence. Again.

In related news, Chan Gailey would have received a threatening phone call from a Tech fan dissatisfied with their season, but the caller was put to sleep by the Chantastic answering message.
“Hi. This is Chan Gailey. I’m sitting here enjoying some Nilla Wafers and milk. Not a flashy combo, but they’re so good. They’re even better eaten while watching reruns of ‘Full House’. I like that show. Well, leave a message if you want. But you don’t have to if you don’t want to. Totally up to you. I’ll just be here ironing my khaki pants and listening to Huey Lewis and The News.”
Zzzzzzzzzzz…

I’d be pissed off at the world too if I lived in Nebraska.

This is just baffling to me. Granted, I’ve spent all of 48 hours in Lincoln in my life, but my impression of Nebraska fans was that if someone yelled “Good Golly!” in the wrong tone of voice around there, they’d be chided by their fellow Husker fans for being too vitriolic.
This rageaholic must seem like some sort of alien monster to the local populace out there…

This is exactly why I use correspondence composed of clipped magazine and newspaper letters for all of my death threats.

Rival @ 10, even if that GATech fan got through to the machine, would Chan completely understand a threat expressed in the form of the applicable engineering and physics formulae for dropping a 2 ton weight on Chan’s head? Doubtful.

Nick Saban wouldn’t have had time for that shit. Jesus, am I really the first commenter to have made that joke? Y’all are slippin’.

I agree with you 100%…..
Hey, at least Nikki’s giving free Motorboats to boost morale……I would superglue my face in there….
The Caption of that photo should read:

Rival @ 16, I can’t criticize too much – my innumeracy has proven resistant to all efforts at improvement. If no-one yelled “duck!,” I’d be flattened.

I’m surprised that no one has said it was “probably a stupid Buckeye fan trying to call Roy Hall on Jan. 9th”.

#20: The world does not revolve around Ohio State. So why would that surprise you?

#1, I fail to follow your logic.
It’s not cool this guy left a death threat for a coach, so let’s kill him!. Warm up the chair!
You’re not helping.

Nebraskans don’t believe in logic (along with evolution and many other things). That’s why I left years ago.
