Switching jobs after a rather long time at one place, and I need to move my 401k. For those of you that have done this, what did you do? Move it into the new employers account or move it to something like etrade, ameritrade, vanguard?

Which one?

Time to get CF bracket season in gear. Cartoons / animation shows is first up. Posting a nomination thread for people to nominate bracket worthy options.

Anybody spot any yet? Sorry for the cardinal sin of a thread with just the name. I live in southern Iowa and I haven’t yet.

With rosters shaping up in the WNBA, how are Cyclones doing? It looks like Ashley Joens is on the Atlanta Roster, Bredget Carleton is fairly entrenched with Minnesota, and Julie VanLoo is on the Golden State roster. I am not aware that Soares is on any roster at the current moment. Anyone know any different? Did I miss any?

Scheduled to break ground in October with the first game in 2024

I was listening to the Blum and Williams podcast and they mentioned a new walk out song for this upcoming season. Said it was a Lil Wayne song but couldn't remember the name of the song. Anyone have any idea what it will be? TIA

What is your favorite video game of all time? On what platform?

I was flipping through the radio last night and there was some promotion with the St Louis sports teams and they were viewing Hakeem Butler. It sounded like a version of a Matt Campbell interview. He had a lot of the catch phrases, "be the best version of yourself," etc. He kept mentioning Coach Becht, and how he demands and makes sure you are prepared. I just looked at the roster and there are a lot of Cyclones on it, Mike Rose, Chase Allen, Willie Harvey, and Chase Allen. Might be a team it would be fun to go watch.

Anyone ever had a meniscus repair? I'm about 2 weeks out from surgery and wondering what to expect when I get off crutches (no weight-bearing for 6 weeks).

Came back to see it and it looks like it is gone?

I like the "what music are you listening to right now" thread. Using that idea, I thought it would be nice to have a TV show streaming thread.

I'll start. We just started streaming "Chernobyl" on HBO Max. Pretty intense.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_(miniseries)

Watched the premiere tonight. Not sure what to think yet. Leaning hard to it might just suck. Seems like I have seen some of this before (Longmire). Already dislike almost every single character other than the Native American wife and her son. Everyone else seems to be a total unmitigated ******* or a suck up toady. Not sure that is going to do much to get me watching.

Why do you ruin chicken salad by putting in grapes and walnuts. It is called chicken salad.

Hate to see him go, but the linebacker room is crowded. Hardly a surprise. I half expected them to redshirt him this year. And even ‘26 would have been problematic.

Good luck, Jack!

Life/family changing signing. Awesome.

Jeff Woody and Grant Mahoney sit down with former Cyclone Jeremiah George to discuss his life following a heart attack, his favorite memories as a Cyclone, and the infamous Texas game. All this and more presented by Kelderman Manufacturing.

Chris Williams and Brent Blum discuss Tyrese Haliburton’s continued tear before getting back into subscriber mailbag questions. Favorite athletes, experience as fans, and more. Presented by Mechdyne.

With the offseason in full swing and the Portal/Coaching Carousel mostly complete, let's kick off 2024.

This week we are looking for songs with following words in the title or lyrics: excuse, reason, justify/justification and maybe plea and rationale.

"On That Note” is presented weekly by @MeanDean, @cyclones500 and myself.


Last Week: I Fought the Lawn

This was on my Athletic feed this morning. An absolutely great story about the ISU athletic department.

Naturally, unless you're a subscriber it will be behind a paywall, but in case they're doing any sort of specials, like a week or even a few days free, it's worth the read.

Simply a terrific piece that will fill you with pride to be a Cyclone fan.

Georges is on Playoff Central on NBA Channel as an analyst. Doing a great job. Definitely has a future in broadcasting after his playing days. That is if he doesn’t want to replace TJ!
