Thought I'd start a new thread for non-Bridget Carleton pro league talk. Didn't want to resurect a dormant thread that was likely mostly Calark talk from a couple of years ago.

So, Big 12 related and local for me:

Big 12 POY Olivia Miles is having a great start to her pro career with the Lynx. Had a WNBA rookie record 8 threes the other night. Truthfully have not paid them much attention to the Lynx since Carleton got drafted away from them and with Collier still out. Might have to give them a look but don't have the local subscription so won't see them much.

I've seen us sign a few future guys recently. What are the trends you're seeing and what about the level of talent so far. To me, it seems like we're defensive focused and O-line focused. It also feels like the dudes we're getting are similar to a Campbell-type level of talent.

Anyone feel like they have a grip on how our coaches are really doing so far? I'll hang up and listen.

Has anyone listened? Incredible football podcast, usually it’s just conversation’s between the hosts. They rarely, if ever, interview players but ended up interviewing ISU alum Charlie Kolar on the state of TE’s in today’s NFL.

For this segment, we’ll explore songs with lyrics/title that reference SPECIFIC names of establishments that provide food as a primary or significant offering, including these categories of convenience store, restaurant, bar&grill and grocery store.

We DO NOT ACCEPT generic references to those terms. So, something like “I went to the restaurant” wouldn’t count.

It must involve a real-life establishment, not fictional. (Defunct eateries are fair game).

OTN is presented each week on Cyclone Fanatic by @MeanDean, @CycloneRulzzz and cyclones500.

Iowa State has a long list of great runners and T&F athletes, including several Olympians. The latest is middle distance runner (sprinter) Rachel Joseph who is dominating the competition right now.

The only thing worse than running the 400 (full on sprint for full lap) is running the 800 (full on sprint for 2 laps).

New to me and the best pie I can recall, with ice cream OMG. My wife got it from a friend who was helping with some old-fashioned bake sale. As the sale ended her friend made an offer for some remaining goods. Fortunately, the pie was one of the lot and we had no idea who baked it except a small label stating:"Red-hot Strawberry Rhubarb-made with strawberry, rhubarb, and cinnamon candy red-hots." Crust was great, too.

Our neighbor is always gifting us rhubarb and if I had the recipe, I'd make it. Anyone heard of this, I see online recipes but afraid they may be different. Good recipe wanted or I'll go with my best guess.
