    Do you had the "Goliaths" of sports?

    You know who they are...the New York Yankees, the Alabama Crimson Tide, the Kentucky Wildcats, the New England Patriots, etc. Do you hate them? If so, why? If not, why not? Does it depend on the team, or do you generally dislike them all? For me, I've never had the disdain for the Goliaths...

    How much do you spend on toothpaste?

    How much do you spend on toothpaste in a given amount of time? How often do you buy it? Are you supplying it for multiple people, or just yourself? Do you apply it liberally on the toothbrush, or are you more stingy? How many times a day do you brush? What brands do you use? I probably go...

    I'm finally over it

    It's taken me a long time, but at long last, I'm at peace with Fred Hoiberg leaving to coach the Bulls. Seriously, it's taken me this long. I was never angry or resentful...just disappointed. And not with Fred; with the thought that nobody would ever get to see him lead ISU to even greater...

    Chains that you didn't know where chains at first

    Reading the chain restaurant made me think about all of the places that I used to think were unique, single-location restaurants, but later discovered were chains. Growing up in small town Iowa and going to school in Ames, there were plenty for me: -Jimmy John's -Pita Pit -Breugger's Bagels...

    The End of Cable? (ESPN's streaming plan)

    So, ESPN's going to start offering their programming to anyone with an internet connection and $20/month, regardless of who your cable provider is (or whether you even have one)...

    Georges' and Naz's Leadership

    This morning, I re-watched some of the press interviews from the past week, and I am extremely impressed with the leadership that Naz and Georges exhibit. These two men, who only turned 21 a few months ago, are so mature and positive, and you can tell how much they love being Cyclones. I hope...

    Separate conferences for football?

    I wish there was more of a push to form conferences for college football, separate from the conferences for olympic sports, rather than continued expansion of the existing conferences. Why should the olympic sports be forced to play in geographically and numerically massive conferences just...

    I give up

    I don't think this Maryland game is winnable at this point. Better pack it in and focus on Lamar.

    Best beer you've purchased from a gas station on a Tuesday night?

    I picked up a sixer of Grain Belt Nordeast tonight from the SA station, which got me thinking... What's the best beer you've ever purchased from a gas station on a Tuesday night? If it was after midnight, it doesn't count, since that's technically Wednesday morning.

    What did you drink before the good stuff?

    Let's face it: most of us craft beer snobs starting off drinking golden **** water like everyone else before craft beer enlightened us. What did you start out with, and what was your path to salvation? Keystone Light and Coors Light were my go-to beers in the early days. One summer I worked...
