    A place to catch the WVU game in DC?

    I'll be in DC for work Wednesday and looking for a place to catch the game, if possible. I'm staying at the Courtyard Washington between the Capital and Washington Navy Yard. Any place to catch the game nearby?

    Jim Gibbons

    For those of you who weren't 5-10 years old at the time, like myself, tell me about Gibbons' head coaching career at ISU. Having no detailed memory of that era, the numbers are interesting, starting with 26. He was just 26 years-old when hired as HC? He then won a national title in his second...

    Mixed signals from Rhoads. What do they mean?

    At this point, I think it's fair to start reading into Rhoads' comments regarding the offense and Messingham's performance. There were two distinct messages in the Iowa postgame: 1. On at least two occasions, and for the second game in a row, Rhoads very clearly singled out playcalling as a...

    Crabapple fungal infection- apple scab?

    I have a mature flowering crabapple tree that has leaves with a lot of dark spots and some yellowing. Based on what I've been told, it has a fungal infection. With this infection and the intense heat, it's also been dropping a fair number of leaves. Earl May recommended a fungicide spray...

    Rewatched ISU-WVU, feel great about SR

    So until today, I couldn’t bring myself to watch the full DVR recording of last year’s WVU game. It just ****** me off too much considering that a bowl trip to the west coast was apparently at stake. But, it’s mid-July, and I’m hard up for football. After watching the game live in...

    Woody's role and the pistol

    In Klenakis' feature on cyclones.com from a few weeks ago he talked about the benefits of the pistol. There were the obvious things like using balance to avoid giving the defense any pre-snap indication of direction. He also mentioned "deception with movement and motion." Maybe I'm dense, but...

    Assistant coach?

    Who is the fifth suit who sits down on the coaches' end of the bench? Last night he was closest to midcourt and I couldn't tell who it was, nor could I find a pic on cyclones.com that looks like him. I recognized Rutter, Otz, Mann, and Abdelmasih, but I can't place the fifth. Definitely not a...

    OSU player postgame interview

    I haven't read many threads from yesterday, so I apologize if this was discussed already. If you haven't yet watched the player postgame on Cyclones.com, go check it out. They interviewed all of the seniors together, and I was kind of surprised at how tight their bond appeared to be. Booker...

    Hedrick Construction, Central Iowa Builders

    Does anyone have any experience with either of these two contractors? I have a small residential job, and both have given me comparable estimates. I've had good conversations with both and, at this point, I have no reason to put one in front of the other. Good/bad experiences? Are either...

    Big 5

    Hard to look at the MBB standings and not feel a twinge of nostalgia and pride in seeing the five surviving members of the old Big 8 sitting solidly 1-5. Love it.

    AFCA National Convention

    The American Football Coaches Association's annual convention kicks off this Sunday and runs through Wednesday. Isn't this the one that is notorious for generating rumors when head coaches are shopping for new coordinators and assistants? Just curious...

    Used toy charities

    As a young parent, I'm learning that this is a good time of year to take inventory of your kids' "stuff" and try to scale back. I'd like to find a charity or a similar group that accepts used toy donations. Any ideas? I think this is a good opportunity to teach my 3-year-old a lesson about...

    Sideline technology

    It's been around for awhile, so it's hardly cutting edge, but how do these NFL coaches get printouts of still images from the previous series so quickly on the sidelines? I'm watching Dallas-Washington right now, and I was reminded of this little bit of sideline technology that I've always...

    So, Barry Alvarez is 65...

    His football program is Big 10 champs and going to another Rose Bowl. He's at retirement age already. Just saying... I'd love to know when this guy is planning to call it a career so I can decide when I need to get nervous.

    On a lighter note...

    What did those of you who attended the game think of the new tunnel entrance? Kind of a big "meh" for me. I'm guessing they'll find some ways to do it up a bit more, but I think the walk through the Jake was more effective at building the suspense for the field entrance... and less awkward.
