Husker Football
has opponents spinning...
For HuskerNation, here's a quote from
the October 20, 1996 football game between Nebraska vs. Texas Tech
football game when the ABC television announcer described Husker
running back DiAngelo Evans as follows:
"He was turning
around like a record on a turntable."
Sanders..."sounded
like a broken record."
The Democratic Debate,
February 11, 2016 - PBS
Sanders..."sounded
like a broken record"
One of our favorite phonograph
language legacy's in the English language was heard again
in USA Today's report the day after the February
11 Democratic debate summarizing Winners and Losers of
the debate with this comment for Senator Sanders under
the Loser's category:
"Sanders, at times
during that first hour, sounded like a broken record
-- citing millionaires and billionaires and Wall Street
to explain almost anything he was asked."
The "sounded like a
broken record" even had its own link to Tweets on
this topic, e.g.,

Rory McIlroy: I sound
like a broken record but I'm close to finding form.

Letter - By The Newsroom Wednesday, 12th July 2017
"Rory McIlroy admits
he sounds like a broken record as he insists he is close to finding
the form to "salvage" his injury-hit season."
"I sound like
a broken record, so why not become a record?"
This article was written by Kim Hart
in the August 28, 2006 Washington Post about a Pilates trainer,
Sarah Christensen, that put her workout guides on MP3 players.
"The idea struck Christensen, of Fairhaven,
Md., after she lost her voice teaching 10 hours of Pilates a day.
Then her husband gave her an iPod." "I had no idea how to even use
one of those things," said Christensen, 50, who took up Pilates
to unwind after selling her laser-manufacturing company five years
ago. "And then it dawned on me: I sound like a broken record, so
why not become a record?"

That broken record
is still spinning
Nov. 9, 2012 By BRIAN CHRISTOPHERSON
/ Lincoln Journal Star
1. That broken record is still spinning
Number 9, number 9, number 9, number
9, number 9. … Apologies. The White Album suddenly flashed to mind.
Here’s why: Penn State is plus 9 in turnover margin, tops in the Big
Ten. Nebraska is minus 9 in turnover margin, last in the Big Ten.
The positive number 9 for Penn State is one big reason the Nittany
Lions have rolled to a 4-1 record in the Big Ten when many outsiders
were counting them out. The negative number 9 for Nebraska is one
big reason the Huskers had to rally from double-digit deficits in
three Big Ten games that probably didn’t need to be that close. Certainly,
talk of turnover troubles is one that has spun like a broken record
around here.

Record gets stuck...
USA Today December
15, 2013 by Nanci Hellmich
Holiday Stress calls for an attitude
adjustment
"If you let your mind wander
too much, it always turns negative" and will get stuck on the
negative.
Hellmich writes in this article about
stress:
When the mind is wandering, it is
unguarded. It's on autopilot, thinking about relationships or
unresolved issues, which Amit Sood, author of The Mayo Clinic
Guide to Stress-Free Living, .calls "the open files.
It's like a (vinyl) record that
gets stuck and repeats the same sound over and over again."
