    Re-siding house

    About 10 years ago, my son helped me re-side my house. It was a lot of work over about 10 days, but based on the estimates I received from contractors earlier, I ended up saving around $25,000 by doing it myself. Now it's time to re-side my son's house. It's a modest ranch home, so not as...

    Pat yourselves on the back, Cyclone fans

    If you haven't watched this already, I strongly encourage you to watch Kelvin Sampson's post game presser, and watch the entire thing (17 minutes). In all my many years I've never heard an opposing coach heap so much praise on our fans. Such a classy guy. So congratulations not only to TJ's...

    As we near the end of 2023, I'm wondering if we have a formal process for selecting the worst thread of the year? If not, below are a few fairly recent threads I'd like to nominate: How do you wipe your bum? Has the rot started to set in? Time For a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

    Creative trash talking

    I've never been a big fan of trash talking, but I do get a kick out of it when it's creative. This is definitely creative. Talk about disrespect...

    Kickoff time for Nov 4 KU game

    Wondering why the kick time hasn't been announced yet for the KU game. Shouldn't it have been announced by now? For what it's worth, the 14 day Ames extended weather forecast is calling for a high of 54 degrees that day. That would be awesome.

    Purdy for MVP?

    I know it sounds crazy to talk about Purdy being a possible NFL MVP, and yes I know I'm just a little bit biased, but hear me out. Obviously, it's a huge long shot, but I’m going to make a case why Brock Purdy should be considered. It’s widely accepted that the QB position is the most...

    Weather forecast for UNI game

    Only 13 days to kickoff! Should be a warm one with projected highs of 85-88 degrees and little chance for precip. A little too warm for me but sure beats the heat we're gonna see this week. Start hydrating now.

    REALISTIC expectations for 2023 football season

    As we head into the spring game, I'm trying to decide what my realistic expectations are for the 2023 season. Below is the schedule. Given that... we have 5 conference road games and just 4 conference home games we don't get to play against Texas Tech, West Virginia, Houston, and Central...

    Need a reason to stop watching WHO TV News (channel 13)?

    Zach Fisher, who anchors their Saturday morning news said at the end of this morning's newscast "To all you Cyclone fans out there, rock chalk jay hawk". I had to rewind and play it back again because I thought I must have misunderstood what he said. Then I googled him and found this in his...

    Suggestion for ISU Ath Dept marketing team

    Instead of bringing in 70 year old acrobats or frisbee chasing dogs for halftime entertainment at Hilton, why don't they bring in Redfoo and have him perform Juicy Wiggle live? The coliseum would go nuts. It's not like Redfoo has a lot of hits, so I doubt he'd be very expensive.

    Proposal to significantly change the way Iowa high schools are classified for football

    I was watching the local news today and they had a very interesting story on a proposal to change the way Iowa high schools are classified for football competition. It's been shown there's a clear disadvantage for schools that have a large Free and Reduced Lunch (FRL) population when it comes...

    Iowa State vs Iowa

    As of right now, it looks like Vegas has us as a 3.5 point dog. I would take that bet right now.
