    Your Favorite College Football Uniforms

    I always liked the green alternate jerseys for Notre Dame I've also always liked Auburn's jerseys (just not their taste in coaches) I also agree with the Army jerseys. I'd never want to play them in a week they wore those.

    Anyone been to Madison for a game?

    My wife and I make a trip to Camp Randall once a year. It's always a great atmosphere. I've been there for Iowa, Michigan and Minnesota games. The best are Iowa and Michigan. Badgers HATE those schools. Iowa fans show up and are obnoxious, loud, disrespectful and as usual, cocky. I enjoy...

    Who has stood on Jack's 50?

    Went out there after Mac's last game - the win against Missouri. Kissed the 50, got pic next to the Honor Before Victory pillar.

    Let the circus begin..Favre to wear purple.

    I will be very curious to see how this affects AP's yards next season. Look, they're not paying Brett Favre to come in an hand the ball off to Peterson 30 times a game. They want him firing the ball down field and every so often, pulling a circus play out of his butt. I will say that Favre does...

    Seat locations.

    Back for the 5th year in a row in section D, row 22, seats 32-33. 30 yard line on visitors side. Great view of the field for watching plays develop. Plus, lots of cool people around us.

    Lazerfest

    Who's going? The paper mentioned that they have already sold over 10,000 tickets and are expecting from 15-18,000. Sunny and 85 that day too. Should be a great day for an outdoor festival.

    cyclone fanatic slammed by marty

    It's lame he attacked Jeremy personally. That's just not classy there Mart. Nevermind I had to listen to him blow Toyota (yet again) just to watch him kill Jeremy over nothing. Bleh.

    Hobbs on First Take

    Good for E3. Good example to show to the kids. I hope he does well in Philly.

    Ellis Hobbs to the Eagles...

    Ellis isn't the only one to do it. Even Justin Hartwig (who went to Valley in WDM) said Valley on the Super Bowl, even though he's just as proud to have gone to Kansas.

    What is Twitter

    I use Twitter now for breaking news. More often than not, it shows up there before it's on any sort of news website. It was where I first hear the Cael news (even before Ch. 13 had it). I follow lots of sports related writers and have met more than 100 people in the area because of it. I thought...

    KXNO - Murphy & Fales

    I'll give it a few listens to see how they do. Don't judge them by their first week of shows. Give them a few weeks to hit their stride. Could be a great show once they get going. They might just have the "Cotman-sized" rolodexes to make the show worth listening to.

    Has anyone purchased MLB.TV?

    Which would you rather have, the MLB.TV service or the audio only feed? I'm debating between both.

    Larry Cotlar

    Cotlar blew an F bomb over the air. In this town and in this industry, that's enough to get canned. Not to mention whatever the incident with the passes was all about. Geoff was on the controls. He was responsible for what went over the air. Pure and simple. If nothing else, an example was made...

    Larry Cotlar

    The KXNO studios are actually state of the art. The CC operation moved into a new building about 3 years ago. It's a large studio where the board operator is pretty much in an entirely separate room from the studio with the "talent."

    Update: Cotlar, Conn, AND Tirrell all fired from KXNO

    EVERY personality at my stations have non-competes. It's not a "big city" thing. It's a radio thing.
