Well if you got hired for 100% remote work, you better hope you don't work within 30 miles of Des Moines. During the pandemic, Principal went out on hiring spree where they recruited a ton of IT help across the country. Now if you live within 30 miles of Des Moines, even if you were promised to be 100% full time remote, you now have to go back into the office. So if you live 35 miles from Des Moines, we think you can do your job from home but if you live in beaverdale, get the **** in the office.

Rather than polluting/diluting other threads, I decided to start a new one to address another aspect of this years team. Yes, the way to win games is to put the ball through the hoop and to limit the opposition from doing the same, so the discussions have revolved around the improvements needed/expected by returning players and potential of the new additions to this years team. Being CFers, we're all gonna lose our minds the first time things don't go our way and with our schedule/competition those opportunities seem abundant.

As much as sheer basketball ability, I think the leadership of this team will be a major factor--the ability of this team's leaders to hold things together during the tough stretches until we gel into what I believe holds the components to be very successful.

In my eyes, this is Lipsey's team, possibly one of the last four year starters in this new era and with a passion for ISU that will be tough to match. Jefferson returned to make this his team. Milan and Nate are invested enough to help with leadership roles. Our opposition will all have key or "go to" players but we may have one of the upper hands with a core of returning players that have "been there, done that" together. Looking forward to an exciting season (after our CFP run, of course)

(edited for those who were concerned)

I know the season isn't over yet, but with the news that Ech will be medically redshirting this season it only makes me wonder what next year's lineup will be.

Here's my best guess:
125 - Adrian Meza/Christian Castillo
133 - Evan Frost
141 - Anthony Echemendia/Jacob Frost
149 - Casey Swiderski/Paniro Johnson
157 - Paniro Johnson/Cody Chittum
165 - Connor Euton/MJ Gaitan/Aiden Riggins
174 - MJ Gaitan/Transfer
184 - Sawyer Bartelt/Tate Naaktgeboren
197 - Sawyer Bartelt/Transfer
HWT - Yonger Bastida

I’m over my head in who is out there and who we have a legit chance at but atleast it’s a spot to catalog the upcoming rat race…

Goes without saying we need the BAP (Best Available Player) if I can steal from NFL Draftniks at our upper weights 174-197…

Only 2 I will throw in with my limited knowledge…
197- Novak from Wyo- only reason would bc he’s from Minnesota and maybe wants to get closer to home? Did we recruit out of HS?
197-Little from Little Rock…maybe he wants to join a top 5 national club

Saw this on Reddit and ESPN. Very interesting.

@brentblum - Thoughts?

Cucumbers and Tomatoes are loaded with blooms, but nothing is setting on, any suggestions?

Has anyone put one of these up before? I am going to put mine up this weekend. It is the MVP one and just the size of it is intimidating. I won it on a march madness bracket awhile back and now the kids are old enough to use it. Are they easy to put up?

Bridget Carleton is still thriving in Minnesota.

Stephanie Soares was cut by the Wings on January 4th. I'm guessing she'll show up in someone's training camp.

Ashley Joens was signed to a training camp contract by Atlanta.

Hy-Vee sent us an email informing us that we won two club passes for the 12th and 13th. We never signed up for anything, but we do shop at Hy-Vee occasionally and are perk members. My nephew races a IMCA Modified here in eastern Iowa, and I help with the car, so my wife and I are both race fans. I've watched Indy races on TV, but I've never attended one in person, so we decided to accept the passes and may go to the event.

Is it a good event?

Thanks!

Hi All,

I recently had a company address an issue with rotting OSB board (not flashed the begin with) under my deck, they put in new OSB, flashed above the deck and below it and put new siding up with drip edges. After this hard rain today, I see once again there is water behind the siding and dripping beneath the drip edge and on the top of the concreate foundation. They are at a loss. Any handymen here?

The first close up picture below is under the drip edge laying on the foundation where water is under it.

The second picture is the drippings on the foundation. Some of this is just dripping off the metal drip edge, others its under it.

We've upgraded to a new version of the forum and know you will love it. However, with upgrades there are always bugs to work out. Something not working correctly? Please kindly let us know here. Thank you!

Starting a signup for my Farnsworth Tribute Mafia game.

For those that may have missed the news.

Sad news to share

It will be a game full of roles he played throughout the years. Hoping for a large signup because he has had alot of roles seeing how he played in 117 mafia games.


Going to Target Monday 14th for game to kick off. Lots to put together and want enough time for people to signup. Planning on 2 mafia's so would love turnout like we did for longtimeclone.

Would love to see anyone who has played before or wants to tribute Farnsworth to be apart this.

Seems like an organized operation.

Training camps right around the corner:

This will settle a debate that could lead me into making $5, obviously this makes it incredibly important.

Not so good for the Cougs.

SIAP, but this is a pretty impressive video. NSFW language warning.

The big guy who tosses the Hawaiian shirt guy in the lake is rumored to be former NHL enforcer Nick Tarnasky, which confirms that age old adage: "Don't get into a fight with former NHL enforcer Nick Tarnasky"
