    ESPN Out for B1G TV Rights

    This is all over You Tube. ESPN has withdrawn its bidding for B1G TV deal. FOX, CBS, NBC to carry its FB games, IIRC, starting 2024. This has to be a positive for the BIG12. It also, IMO, boosted the value of PAC12 TV rights. ESPN has more money to spend, and it wants "PAC12-After-Dark" time...

    Ever Imagine a World Without Sports?

    I've resurrected some old DOS games to play inside the DosBox emulator: Dungeon Hack, Epic Pinball, and Wizard of Wor. Along with playing World of Warships, that's my weekend entertainment for the next few weeks.

    *** Official IOWA STATE VS Kansas State Game(Day) Thread ***

    I hope CSP recruits two competent point guards for next season. Our team is absolutely the worst passing team since the '70s. A reliable turnover machine.

    The Insider Information Weekly Mailbag - Questions Submission

    Robins, they're already returning to the midwest. Cranes, Loons and Pelicans will probably arrive mid-March as the waterways lose ice. Cedar Waxwings winter over, so they don't return to anything. Bluebirds probably arrive late April when insect populations boom. In order: 1. Robins 2...

    Expectations for 2020-2021 season

    I expect some sort of post season appearance whether NCAA, or NIT. Failing that, Prohm should be fired, as no discernable improvement is made.

    Food for Thought: What Could Troy Davis Do With This Team?

    Troy still would have been great, but I doubt he'd be 2 a two time 2,000 yard rusher. He wouldn't get quite enough carries.

    MSU fans discussing new coach. Campbell on their shortlist. Funny stuff

    If the "Mac" you're referring to is Dan McCarney; he was absolutely no joke. Coach Mac took a worse than Kansas level football program, built it up through recruiting, and took it to consecutive bowl games, and a still a school record nine win season. Yes, his team wasn't that good when he...
