    Anyone have Sprint or T-Mobile?

    Looking at switching from Verizon since it seems way more expensive than necessary. Looking at Sprint and T-Mobile since they are running some deals for new iPhones. Anyone have experience with those? Seems like most everyone I know either has Verizon or US Cellular. I'm mostly in the Des Moines...

    Computer Video Card Help Needed

    I've got a 3 year old HP desktop and the video card has gone bad just recently. I start up the computer and after 5 minutes or so the screen just goes blank (the monitor still works so it's not that). From looking on HP support forums I've found out that it is the video card that has gone out...

    Google Antenna Farm in Council Bluffs

    Saw this article on the register's website. Tech publication: Council Bluffs is possible site for Google satellite antenna farm | Des Moines Register Staff Blogs I don't fully understand all this stuff. I know Google is putting up that fiber network in KC, which is supposed to bee 100 times...

    Tailgating TV Question

    Our group is upping our tailgate this year, and we are adding satellite tv to our setup. We just bought the tailgate satellite package so we are all set up on that front. My question is how to mount our tv. We are planning on using a 32" flat screen that is about 24 pounds. I have seen...

    NBA Players Compaining over Foul Calls

    Here is a link that shows players faces after getting called for a foul. Pretty good stuff. I trust some CFers can do some serious photoshop damage with these. Let's see what you got. 18 Photos Of NBA Players Who Can’t Believe They Were Just Called For A Foul

    T-Mart gone at end of year?

    Just heard this from a friend of a friend of a friend who has "two or three sources", so take it for what its worth (perhaps nothing). But here is what they say happened: 1. Bo's meltdown against Taylor on Saturday night. All agree it was over a cell phone. When Taylor was injured, he was...

    Faking Injuries vs Oregon

    I didn't see this anywhere, sorry if its already been posted. But take a look at this link and the video in the article. It talks about how Cal players were faking injuries during their game against Oregon in order to slow them down. The video shows a player get up with ease from a previous...

    A Few Football Questions

    1) Does anyone know why Shontrelle Johnson didn't get any carries against Texas? I know he returned a few kicks, so I don't think he was injured. I'm not complaing about Woody as the back-up...he's been great. I just also liked seeing SJ in there as well. 2) Has anyone heard anything more...

    Seneca Wallace Starting?

    Rumor over on ESPN is that Seneca Wallace may be taking over for Jake Delhomme at QB of Cleveland. Delhomme had an MRI Tuesday and is not practicing Wednesday. They are calling it a "game time decision" for now.

    Playing Big 12 South Teams Every Year

    I know we don't have a very good record against the south, but I think that might be partially due to the fact that we don't have to deal with them every year. I think we will become much more familiar with the players, coaches, and their tendencies when we have to play them on a yearly basis...

    Calling all Fanatics!

    Yep, thats right. I found another internet poll we can take over. I mean now that this conference expansion talk is over, and its the dead season, what else do we have to do? ESPN is asking you to rank the teams if a full Big 12 Pac 10 merger were to take place. List Ranker - Rank 'Em: Big...

    Big XII Football in 2011

    Maybe this has been talked about but I haven't seen it. Do we know what the plans are for the conference in 2011 when Nebraska is gone but Colorado is still here? I think by NCAA rules we cannot have a conference championship game with less then 12, but we can petition for a waiver. Would we...

    Theoretical New Big 12

    So this morning I was trying to think of this a different way. Instead of teams joining the Mountain West, what about the Big 12 just expanding and replacing. Now, I am assuming Texas, ATM, Okla, OSU, TT, and Colorado are going. Here is a list of teams I cam up with that may or may not be...

    Top 75 College Apparel Sales

    Here is an interesting article I found which shows the top apparel sales for colleges. Texas comes in at number one. Nebraska is 13th. Absent from the top 75 is both Iowa and Iowa State. http://www.clc.com/clcweb/publishing.nsf/Content/Second+Quarter+Rankings+2009-2010

    Non-AQ Revenue Sharing

    Here's an article on ESPN's blog about how all the non automatic qualifying conferences share the money from BCS games. Is it just me or is this crazy? I'm all for money being distributed for the greater good of one conference, but if Boise gets $20M for going to a BCS game but only sees a...

    What does everyone think of Dino Gaudio?

    I think a bigger name not a lot of people are talking about is Dino Gaudio. I was looking closer at him and he previously was the head coach (with little success) at Army (36-72 and Loyola (MD) (32-52). Obviously those are not very impressive stints. But when he took over at Wake Forest he had a...

    Anybody have any dirt on K-State?

    I know we are all disappointed with how the season has gone so far, but we can take a big step forward with an upset victory over K-State. I hope Hilton can be as rockin as it was for Texas and Kansas. Even though the Kansas game was decided by halftime, I thought the atmosphere in the first...

    Texas Tech

    This is probably the team in the conference that I know the least about. Does anyone know what they like to do? Strenghts? Weaknesses? I know they had a nice run in the non-conference highlighted by the overtime win against Washington. But what makes this team click and where do they struggle...
