    New restaurant in front of Ames Target?

    I heard, cant remember where, that Buffalo Wild Wings was coming to Ames soon. No proof it would be infront of target, but that wouldnt be a terrible location for it.

    What state has had the least pro sport sucess?

    I'm going to say Washington DC, although its not officially a state. The Nationals have been god awful since they entered the league. The capitals, although a good team, have choked the last 3 years in the playoffs The Wizards had players get arrested in multiple season, and cant win more then...

    Fraternities

    This could not be more wrong. Although I do not know exactly what goes on "behind closed doors" everywhere, Iowa State is a non-hazing university for all activities, Sports, Clubs, Drama, and Fraternities. The university looks very very negatively on hazing and any report of it is taken care...

    UNI

    I lived in Cedar Falls for a good 16 years of my life before coming to college in Ames. Both Ames and Cedar Falls are effectively the same cities, with very similar restraunts/malls/activities going on/historic main streets. Ames does have Des Moines only 40 minutes away which helps with...

    Why most Americans don't like soccer.

    I am very aware of the difference between Soccer and Football, the point of my post was to try and illustrate some of these differences to people who do not seem to fully understand soccer and think that football is the only sport that matters (see Dan Beebe) by comparing the two. I am as big...

    Why most Americans don't like soccer.

    "beating the defense" is not what you mean I don't think. A player in soccer is unable to cherry pick by the goals, and as has been mentioned in this thread, sports like basketball do not limit this. A player can beat the defender any time her or she is able to get past this defense and will...

    Why most Americans don't like soccer.

    when the play started he was onside, therefore it was a legal play. if he so much as flinches before the play starts, everything stops and the play cant continue. how is that ANY better then the soccer offside rule? Both seem to limit the spaces that players to go to when they dont have the...

    Why most Americans don't like soccer.

    Okay to be clear, soccer is its own sport. People don't compare baseball to basketball and claim to make any sense, so stop comparing soccer to anything. It is called soccer and not foot-ice-sket-ball. Offside is called when a player on the attacking team makes an attempt to play the ball...

    Why most Americans don't like soccer.

    Coming from someone who has played some form of organized soccer here in Iowa for the last 15 years, I can tell you that the support from schools and the lack of "importance" of soccer has pushed it to the back burner for most all children in the US. In almost every other country, the best...

    The real reason Realignment is a problem

    I have been following this site for a number of years, but just recently decided to start posting. One thing that this whole realignment discussion has taught me, is that for ANY journalist to have credibility (looking at you Chip Brown and Joe Schad) they need to disclose their sources. It...
