Didn't you read Jeremy's big announcement???

lol... jk... but hey... more coverage of Cyclones Athletics in the rag... that's what I remember discussions from 3 months were always complaining about. Now we're getting some... so that's good right?

Lol, no, dbronco. I think he's talking about how many OT threads there are in the Recent Posts, all of which discuss a different story the Rag wrote about. He's saying we (with all of our secondhand news) are the Register's front page, not that the Rag is taking news from our board. Though that would be nice...

Edit: Yes! Post #777! It's good luck!

EXACLY...This site is beginning to regurgitate the RAG's front page in our Off Topic threads.


EDIT: I've been guilty of this myself, however, I try to limit it to only ISU related info.

Re: Site Question???

I am getting sick of opening CF and seeing crap like Lou Dobbs report posted. If I want Lou Dobbs I will go to Lou Dobb's site. I am pretty sure Lou dobbs does not post Cyclone stuff on his site. Also the register stuff is alright if it's relevant. Don't get me wrong I don't mind a little off topic pop culture type stuff every once in a while, but every other story is a post to go read CNN or Fox. Rediculous.

I see what you mean... but (though I haven't read any of the articles) it seems as if two of them are about Cyclone Athletics. Boozer and the Stephen's Tribute Game. So that's more Cyclone Coverage in the Rag right?

And I am getting sick of people whining about what kind of topics get posted on CF. Can't please everybody, I guess...

Something to consider...if the selection of threads is not to your liking, start some threads that are to your liking...

Yeah, that.

I don't like these political threads either. I just ignore them...rather than complaining about them.

If the title of the thread does not interest you, do not click on it. Any other questions?

Re: Site Question???

This site needs users who complain less and do more posting of Cyclone-sports-related topics for discussion.

Lead by example, but good effin' luck finding sports news in July.
