WTF ESPN, they carry only part of the first round on ESPN.

Is there going to be one (or more) of these? Usually find myself in a couple, but I get the Wrestlestat links from the fine folks on CF.

@Andegre?

What are my options for selling remaining big12 tickets? Not interested in becoming a stubhub participant, but is that the best way? Would rather transfer and get money in hand versus selling on an app. Suggestions are welcomed but remember you're dealing with a 'non-techie'

Here is to hoping this season is better than the last one which I think may have been the worst in the show's existence. First impressions so far is there are going to be a lot more likable players this season than last season. Going to continue some of the new twists they introduced last season since this cast had not seen season 41 yet plus introduce some new ones. Right off the bat I like the 3 person amulet advantage. If all 3 of those people make it to the merge it could get crazy, either they will agree to use it for extra votes or steal votes or they start scheming against each other to be the last one left so it turns into an immunity idol. I like the potential of that one.

The 2 stories involving Jackson sure was a surprise. I would have never guessed he was transgender then having to be pulled from the game because he didn't disclose that he just stopped using lithium right before the season started. I figured when Jeff came to the camp and we just saw a scene before that when someone was telling Jackson they would be pushing water to him because he was saying he felt dizzy the past 10 hours that it has to be something medical related to bring Jeff there. Did find it a bit over the top that several people that had only 48 hours with someone they never know before could be moved to tears that quickly.

Johnathan looks like he is going to be a challenge beast. That could be good early one but big target on him later. My initial "feel" of this cast is I am going to find some likable people to root for sooner than I did last season where I never really did like a good chunk of the people who played.

Next week is Spring Break at ISU. What was your best spring break, or what are you doing this spring break?

T.J. didn't hold back when asked about his level of concern with this team moving towards next week.

Earmuffs kiddos, earmuffs.

One of our favorite coaches ejected 11 minutes into game

Enjoy this week's episode. Ben and I give our thoughts of this weekend! Then we start to look ahead slightly to NCAA's.


I think for next weeks' episode it would be fun to do like half a mailbag episode. Go through brackets/preview Detroit but also get some questions from you guys about NCAA's! Just let me know

Greetings all.

With the surge in gas prices, I have been considering getting an electric scooter to buzz around town on vs my gas guzzling diesel truck. Anyone have any recommendations? I have been looking at the new Segway GT series, but man those are expensive.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks

The below comment is from an article from the Wichita Eagle. It is funny how KU was alleged to have 5 level 1 NCAA rules violations and yet nothing has happened to them. I'm not an insider so I can't say for certain one way or the other but it makes you think.

“We did it the right way,” Weber said. “We did it with our guys graduating. ... I’m on the NCAA ethics committee. And on the meetings, I was told that they were going to take care of the people in the FBI stuff. So I told somebody, ‘I’m going to grow my hair until something happens.
Obviously, it’s still growing. That’s the sad part of our business. Lon Kruger told me the other day, think about all the guys in the FBI thing. They are all in the NCAA Tournament except one. So I’m just proud of what I’ve done.”

So now it appears that there is serious question whether Dr. James Naismith actually invented basketball or borrowed the idea from a 19 year old in Herkimer, NY.
That would be appropriate if the KU court is named after someone who cheated his way into history.

So, looking at pulling the trigger on a new TV finally. Currently have a 52" Samsung from probably 2009.

I'm planning on a 4k in either the 65" or maybe 75" range. Still trying to debate between QLED vs OLED and debating if I should go for screen size or a higher end model. I rarely watch movies in the dark so the true black of the OLED isn't necessarily a major selling point for me, and I've been a fan of Samsung TVs for a while. Main uses are mainly just cable, Netflix, maybe some light gaming if I ever run across a PS5

Any have thoughts or opinions?

Do you care if there’s a MLB season?

Kind of a specific question I can't find a good answer to on the internet, hoping either someone who is a landlord or has been in the situation can help me out:

Moved out of state and broke my lease early, per Iowa law I have continued to pay rent while Land lord is searching for a new tenant. I am paid up through March currently, and landlord has filled the unit in the last few days my question is 2 things:

Am I entitled to a prorated portion of March rent back, as landlord is now being double paid for days 10-31 of March. (me + new tenants prorated rent)

Am I entitled to my security deposit back under Iowa law as I am not behind on rent? Less any itemized damage they send me in writing.

Thanks in advance.

For the real coach speak.

What are there more of in the world, doors or wheels? What do you think?

I looked for a thread on this kid, but didn’t see one. Dropped a 24’1” long jump last night. It was his 2nd jump I believe, jumping 24’ on his 1st attempt. I’ve seen it being mentioned as top 5 in the nation this year, but I’m not sure what age level that is, because I’m pretty sure it’s close to top 5 in the world for U18:

He’s very explosive as a running back, but damn…kid would easily get a track scholarship and possibly an Olympian at some point. Crazy numbers for a junior in high school.

I know the City of Ankeny will reimburse for 50% of the cost of top dressing a yard as part of a Soil Quality Restoration program. This is from newer construction where the soils are not good because the top soil is stripped off as part of the building/grading process. My house was built in 2016 so it would qualify and I have been working really hard to get the yard looking good. Has anyone had experience topdressing the soil with compost? Was it worth the money? I got a quote and if they reimburse I am willing to do it, but don't want to throw my money away. The quote is for 1/2" of compost spread out and includes aeration and overseeding.
