Thursday Flakes: A New Writer, More USA Gold, Nebraska Playoff Hopes and Other Sports Exist


Why hello there. I’m officially starting my second season writing for Corn Nation and will also be doing Thursday Flakes. If you enjoy all sports, then I’ll have some good updates. If you are ready for the kids to go back to school (even if you don’t have kids the answer is yes), then be glad it starts back up soon. Otherwise, feel free to enjoy some Nebraska love and weird things from here. Onto the Flakes…

As I said, this will be my second year in which I will be covering both Football and Men’s Basketball for Corn Nation. I look forward to hearing from you in the future and will seriously be glad once those pesky kids go back to school. Enjoy your Thursday. Go Big Red!
