    Acreage tips from the Fanatics

    Funny, I've never once had a vet ask me for payment up front. I always get an invoice and pay it. AND I would refuse to pay cash, I don't like the way it feels in my hand. ;)

    Acreage tips from the Fanatics

    I don't think you bought a house, I'm pretty sure this is a cult. You might want to have an emergency evacuation plan. Just joking, but the reason to buy a place in the country is to get away from crap like that.

    Acreage tips from the Fanatics

    What What do you use to clear your drive of snow? I'm thinking of trying to go a little smaller too, just getting ideas. I have .17 mile to clear TOTAL and I need my blower most of the time and use my tractor for that. Most of the time a much smaller blower would work though. What is big...

    Acreage tips from the Fanatics

    Sparkplug has a good point. If you don't like having stuff around, then renting is a good idea. However: 1) I like being able to say to myself. The weather looks nice on Fri evening and Saturday, I'm going to do X. Try getting rental stuff on short notice OR even when you want it, ever...

    Acreage tips from the Fanatics

    Well, we're here to help not chastise. Although, planning is a good thing. Equipment over time is not going to be a crazy thing, but you CAN get a lot done with the right tractor and an FEL, just not in the ideal way. Start there. LISTEN to everyone about the insurance. And, I am staying...

    Kayden Fish will return, fills Iowa State's 13th scholarship spot

    I mentioned a while back that a few ISU fans were lucky enough to sit by Kayden's mother and some of his family and support group at the 2nd game in Omaha. They were really very nice and open about his and their high regard for the staff and program. When I heard of his venture into the...

    Virginia Law to allow schools to pay players for NIL

    That's just the way it is, some things will never change..... That's just he way it is, the way it is, the way it is..... OK, with a little less vague sarcasm this time. NOW, that it is out in the open, that it is free market capitalism instead of blatant CHEATING, we have less to complain...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Please stop bringing logic and facts to this. I like the sport of "wall **** throwing" that these guys do. You may be their ultimate demise.

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Well they have a point there. I definitely watched several of those team this year. Tx and OK so I could see how the conference all measured up to each other. OSt, MI, Penn St., and Wisky would have been in the running to see them wipe up the floor with Iowa (If it wasn't a blow out, I'd...

    Tyrese Hunter Enters Portal Again

    OK, that is a LOT more than I thought it would be. Figured something in the range of $250K average. Well, then if these young men want to develop for the long term, then they need to learn to make better decisions. How many non-athletes do you know that made dumb decisions they have had to...

    OK. So, either Crakes, Hancock, or Thompson have the primary marketing data. I'll check with ine of them then. Thanks.

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Yup. It (media bias and unequal revenue dustribution) is bad now and not likely to get a LOT worse or become nuclear (these top X teams are all we want now. The rest of you can go away.) NIL, if not governed will be where most of the damage could be done IMHO.
