    NCAA Screws the Little Guys (Again)

    I didn't see a thread for this yet, but have to say this is one of the most ridiculous things I have seen. The NCAA cancelled the championships for winter sports in D3 because too many schools chose not to participate. Nothing like ******* over the teams and athletes that did choose to...

    Whiskey

    The Urbandale HyVee Booze Sale thread got me thinking we need a thread dedicated to whiskey. As a relatively new drinker of whiskey, I'm interested in hearing what peoples tastes are, favorite/go to whiskeys, go to spots in the metro for whiskey, etc.

    I wish I'd known...

    I was having a conversation a couple days ago with a friend and we were talking about things we wish we had known earlier in life and questions we wish we had been asked before choosing to do certain things (college, jobs, etc). It got me thinking that we cant be the only one with those...

    Now that the groups are all set, I thought we could have a dedicated thread for the Champions League. Who do you think advances from each group? Man City ended up in the group of death as usual, can they make it out this year?

    Soccer - Mexico Fires Herrera

    Well this certainly makes things interesting for the Confederations Cup Playoff. Mexico will just have a couple games under a new coach prior to it. I think that's got to be good for the US. http://www.espnfc.com/mexico/story/2539748/mexico-federation-sacks-miguel-herrera-after-alleged-brawl

    Interesting Debate

    Interesting debate here on the balance of scheduling in college football. I personally don't see why they couldn't do a combination of both. Have all P5 schools play the same number of games against other P5 schools but maintain the regional rivalries...
