I'm now a game-time decision for Saturday due to the concussion I just suffered trying to run through a brick wall.
Not trying to argue with anyone, just stating a belief. That said I completely agree that it’s about damn time for the season to start.
The second half of the video was nice, just wish it wasn’t couched as some response to what “they” say. I think if you cut out all the stuff about what other people say, the video is only improved.
Maybe I’ve been away from ISU for too long, but that video just doesn’t do it for me.
Part of it is the voice; part of it is that I’m tired of hearing about how others think (negatively) of ISU. It’s simply not important to me. I’m tired of hearing thoughts that make ISU out as the perennial underdog or that it’s us against the world. I’m given the impression that neither our players or coaches think that way.
What we believe we are is more inspiring to me than what we believe we aren’t, especially in comparison to what some general “they” say. I am given the impression that our coaches and players believe they have been winning in the dark all offseason and it’s time for them to prove their own beliefs/work on the field under the lights. That’s what I am excited to see and it is in no way altered by what some random media personality thinks about the team.
Won't be useful for all of us...but I understand the sentiment.![]()
We could always get a dripping water emoji?
You missed the point. The point was this is what all these fools thought of Iowa State and we proved all them ******* wrong. We are Iowa State and we are here to **** **** up. So **** you and your bull **** narrative because we don't play by your rules mother ****** you're gonna learn today *****.

I think you kind of missed the point. I don't think they are claiming to be perennial underdogs, although it will always be us against the world (it would be anywhere). I believe they are saying they do believe in what they have done. That they've fought from the beginning to be what they are now despite what others may say. That they've built this program up from the inside. And now the time has come to show who they are and what they can do. The time is now.
I tell you what, that video worked for me. Told my wife to pack the car, I'm ready to head to Ames.
Pollard was concerned if we used Hayes30s version then the Students would go full blown VEISHEA and form a mob, tip busses, and light opposing mascots on fire
So we got this other one instead.
Really great video. Also appears to (again) address talking heads saying he'll leave. Love it.
