    Look Who’s Complaining About B1G Scheduling Now ...

    Marc Morehouse of the Cedar Rapids Gazette apparently thinks the B1G should ditch their divisions, and copy the Big XII system of just putting the two best-performing teams in the conference championship at the end of the season. He also firmly believes the conference needs to get rid of that...

    B1G Basketball Tourney in - New York?

    Anybody else see this? Jim Delany announced the B1G basketball tournament will be held at Madison Square Garden in 2018. Makes great sense, huh? Take a Midwest-based conference and hold your tournament in New York City. Delany is just obsessed with bringing in those East Coast TV sets. I'm not...

    Just a last minute idea for my three grad-student/ISU alum kids. Anybody have five they want to sell for the New Years Eve game? I'm finding the cheapest available online in the $50-60 dollar range, so I wouldn't be interested in paying more than that.

    Every Man A ... What's That Again?

    Watching the Iowa Class 2A football semifinal, I see the Albia team is holding up the K-State motto as a slogan of their own. On the backs of each jersey, instead of a name, it says "EMAB." I can only assume that means Every Man A Blue Demon , since they are the Blue Demons. (Is a blue demon...

    Cedar Rapids Sept. 1 Game Watch?

    Since the Tulsa game is on FSN ... meaning most, if not all, cable subscribers in Cedar Rapids are going to be shut out of that channel (thanks for nothing, Comcast) ... any ideas on a good spot for a game watch on the 1st? Another problem for us Cyclone fans is that the Squawkeyes are also...
