What are the differences between the 2? Other than the obvious. STL is slightly older and has a metro of 2.8mil vs 2.3. My gf is from STL and I've been trying to tell her that STL may be in the Midwest but it has more of a East/slightly smaller version of Chicago vibe. Not that that's a bad thing(I've always enjoyed my times there). KC is more like a smaller version of Dallas. I feel like KC is on more of an upswing while St. Louis City gets stuck in limbo in terms of city projects due to most of the money being in St. Charles County. While the snobs in KC suburbs in KS and MO may still be stingy in terms of projects in KCMO they still realize it's the flagship city of the metro. Same state and only 3 hours of highway between them but 2 totally different places imo.

Ahead of the 2025 season, every Big 12 team's win total is set between 5.5 and 8.5. Who's going to separate themselves from the pack?

Predicting Big 12 Win Totals

The countdown to college football season is officially on, and with it comes one of the most entertaining offseason traditions—predicting win totals. The Big 12 looks vastly different in 2025, with new faces on the sidelines and fresh rivalries brewing across an expanded conference. Let’s dive into

Our (basic) iRobot Roomba recently bit the dust and we are looking for an upgrade. The old one was ok, not great. We have some carpet that is high pile and some hardwood floors and two pets. Lots of pet hair.

Any suggestions on which brand/version to look at? Preferably under $600 or so. Willing to spend that much if it actually works.

I got Directv Stream and MLB.tv so I could watch any game I want. Turns out that since the Brewers are blacked out in Iowa, I can’t watch their game on the MLB app even though Des Moines Fox 17 picked up Yankees-Red Sox instead of Brewers-Padres. Any workarounds?

The Iowa guy thread got me thinking about vices. Substance not other.. First off, your preference. I'm sure liking gummies after decades of not using it. So many alternatives available. Not hung over in morning. Always calming vs what booze brings. No calories.

Been helping my parents move out of their house that they have been in for 30+ years. This has resulted in some interesting finds. Here are a couple of them.

Thanks so much to @Cyclones_R_GR8 for this thread topic:

“ How are your dreams, Scary, pleasant or just plain weird?
Do you have recurring themes to your dreams?”

I am going to let him share his, but it is really good.

I just have had recurring dreams over the years that I accidentally never quit the job I had in high school at a small supermarket in our tiny town, I suddenly needed to show up and work a shift after working my grown-up job. The dream just goes through that day.

How about you?

Please help me welcome Jake Brend to our team at Cyclone Fanatic. Jake started with us full-time today. Think about what he has done for local TV covering the Cyclones over the years. Now he will do that digitally for CF - on steroids. We are heavily investing in our video and podcast production going forward. Of course, Rob Gray will still be on the ground for us in terms of writing about the Cyclones.

A couple of weeks ago a tree in our front yard was hit by lightning. It is a little leaf linden that is about 2 feet in diameter. The lightning created some random cracks in the bark in the bottome 20 feet of the tree but more devastatingly it blasted the bark pretty much clean off in an area about 5 feet high and 8-10" wide at the bottom of the tree. I found chunks of bark across and down the street over 100 feet from the tree. I trimmed off the shredded bark in that area but what should I do around it? Should I remove, leave or try to fasten tight the loose but intact bark on either side of this area? What should I be doing to help protect the tree? I know when I was a kid I saw people paint open areas like that but I haven't seen that for years so I'm guessing it really doesn't do any good. Should I proactively apply pesticides or fungicides?

Any help would be appreciated.

I've been looking at adding solar to my house. I think about 6000-7000w worth of panels will offset my cost of purchasing from the power company. I would like to do the installation (roof installation, running wires, mounting hardware) myself and then have a licensed electrician "friend" come over and do the final wiring. It looks like ROI might be around 8 years, and I don't plan on moving so after that I can reap the rewards.

Has anyone here done something like this? Who did you purchase panels, inverters, and mounting kit from? Has your ROI been close to what was calculated?

Congrats to Crooks and Brown for being invited to the AmeriCup trials. By my count, ISU is one of 4 schools with two players invited (Oklahoma, Vandy, Notre Dame).
