GBR!

Overnight for yall..stay safe.

1 inch hail and or Tornadoes.

I'm posting this strictly as a layperson, and not as a medical suggestion.

Four weeks ago I began receiving testosterone therapy which requires the insertion of a needle into the muscle in my buttocks.
It's not a small needle, in fact, it is 1 1/2" long and is a 26 gauge needle, so it's also not a thin needle.

I had watched a stupid ass Tik Tok video of some guys who said if you "cough" at the same time the needle is inserted, there will be zero pain.
Obviously, I figured the guy was full of it. Turns out, he was exactly right, zero pain.

My wife had never given anyone a shot in her life and was being instructed by a nurse how to do it, the reason being the Doctor did not prescribe the medication so the nurse could only instruct my wife on how to insert the needle, but couldn't actually do the injection.

So, I told my wife, let me know when you are ready to insert the needle and I will cough. Did that, and zero pain. 1 1/2" into the muscle. The nurse hadn't heard of that.

Once we were finished, I told my wife that I could have done it since I'd inserted a much larger object into her thousands of times over the years....but, I digress.

The reason I bring this topic forward is maybe to help someone who needs to get a tetanus shot or even a cortisone shot. I don't know how this might work into a small extremity like a finger or hand or into a joint for a cortisone shot. It may not help at all. But, if a needle is inserted into a muscle or even a fatty area, it can be painless.

Take this suggestion for what it's worth. But, it has worked awesomely for me.

By the way, I'm not some fat ass. I'm in the 5'10" 180-pound range.

Huge night for the the Huskers. Hit the link.

Looks like trouble brewing for the Hawkeyes, 26 student athletes identified so far.

Big Ten Tournament

Championship - Saturday, May 13
Northwestern vs. Indiana (3:00 PM - BTN)

Here at Haymarket Park for the final home series of the season as Nebraska (26-20-1, 10-8) begins a crucial two-week stretch in Big Ten play as they look to lock up a spot in Omaha for the conference tournament from May 23-28. Penn State (24-19, 6-11) remains in the bottom half of the conference and is coming off a series in which they got swept by Rutgers.

Tonight it'll be LHP Emmett Olson (5-3, 4.34 ERA) vs. TBA in the series opener. However, the tarp is on the field and we will not start on time as we are in a lightening delay. Hearing earliest start time to be 6:30 p.m. With this big storm moving in, we might not get things rolling until 8 p.m. depending on how the weather acts. Going to be a lot of waiting tonight. Here's the series preview in the meantime.


Additionally, Will Bolt, Olson and Griffin Everitt spoke to the media yesterday to preview the weekend and how they're approaching this emotional weekend as they say goodbye to 10 seniors with Everitt included.

GBR!

Short clip of interview by 93.7 on frost

JoJo gave a little insight about things that went wrong. He was one of the bright spots on defense for NU under the Frost era.

Frost just wasn't ready for a big time job and I think Frost never wanted to be here but his ego thought he could turn things around here quickly.

Like to record hockey and then later just rewind and stop at scores or fights

With direct tv one speed was two x which was perfect!


Dish only has a 15 x


What the hell?

Son of Neil Smith. From the KC area. Projected to play defense for Nebraska.
