We're a pretty easy group to get along with. I think the general rule is "if you respect us, we'll respect you". Part of the problem, though, is that a segment of our fanbase in pretty insecure and will look at common facts or opinions as trying to "hold us down" or "form a conspiracy against ISU". I'm sure all fanbases have that small segment though.

Hey guys, even if BYU didnt join the B12, I'm glad I found your message board. You guys are not only cool, but seriously witty/funny. I have had a blast talking to alot of you. I would love to come back every now and again, and even more so if we join the B12. Props to you all.

it is people like you that make me really excited if BYU joins the conference, so far they sound like they have a respectable fan base. I wish more schools were like this.

Yeah could one of you explain how the credits work? Man if they are like credits to wager on games then this board is even better than I thought! How cool is that... It probably explains how it works when you register huh? Either way its genius
Just go to the Betting Board, it's just like Vegas.

This is, by far, the most intelligent and respectful message board on the net.

Reading here has really made me appreciate ISU's fans.

Quit it guys, you are going to make me tear up.

Hey bholley80,
You are very welcome! I think ISU and BYU fans have something in common...we unconditionally love our teams no matter what. Thank you for all of the nice compliments and you are welcome back anytime (not that I have that authority :rolleyes:)

HaHa......I'm still nowhere near coachdags or TheCaptain!!!


RhoadsRage, here is my betting strategy: See whether any one of you three has bet. If not, I pass. Now please don't start throwing away credits just to mess with me.

I get around
And you can bet your fake money (credits) on sporting events. :yes:
How about giving him a couple of million credits just to start off with. That'll get him even more hooked on the site and keep him coming back! :yes:

Looks like it's worked out pretty good for ya so far. But I will warn ya, sometimes I throw credits on teams I hate...... example Yankees, that way it's a win-win situation for me. They win,I win credits, they lose, I'm happy they lost!

Yeah man, I can see myself getting way to wrapped up in this...to the point of a minor obsession, which would deter some from even getting involved. It just so happens I like obsessing over things :)

So far, the strategy has helped me build back up from a big loss from an emotional pick of us over Missouri last year. We will see where it takes me. I'm not betting very often right now.

I wonder if there is a way to link the Betting Board with the Suicide Pool. It is the first time I've ever participated in that and it is really fun.

Pretty sure the winner of the Suicide pool is getting some credits.
