    Best HVAC company in Des Moines/Ames Area

    We've had good experience with C&K. Techs are knowledgeable and not constantly trying to upsell and are prompt when there has been an issue.

    Golf lessons

    Best experience for my son was lessons from a great instructor who then took him out on the course and played different shots as just hitting balls on the range only took him so far. Played all through high school and college. Still a low single digit player who continues to take 2-3 lessons per...

    Bird Migration and Misc Birding Thread

    Took this one with phone while golfing in Arizona. Cactus is right off the fairway one block from our house.

    ***2025 Cyclone Softball***

    Great game and really surprised how young we are as a team...lots of freshmen and sophomores. Also really impressed with the women's BB team and how they were into the game and how they signed shirts, programs, and posed with kids for pictures.

    Kelsey Joens in Portal

    I think he was just honest with her about playing time next year. I loved watching her hustle all year but with Williams taking a starting spot and AJ or Hare starting at the second guard minutes are going to be limited. I wish she was staying but I'm sure she wants a bigger role than she would...

    Final Four

    I know Sampson is a HOF coach but they actually ran no offense in the second half. Lots of possessions where they just dribbled 30 feet from the basket and then try to make a one on one move at the end of the shot clock while the defense collapsed on them. Really bad last 5 minutes.

    A long-running joke is no more. Olive Garden is coming to Ames.

    It was our go to place when we lived in Waukee. Good food and service and I would hit Golf Galxy and meet my wife at the Barnes and Noble.

    2025 Transfer Options

    Let's hold coaches and ADs to the same standard. DeVries with 3 jobs in a year is prime example.

    ***WBB: (11) Princeton vs. (11) Iowa State (Wed, 6:00)***

    I don't know how anyone can defend Bill and his attitude of letting them play through it. Call a frigging timeout to at least try to regroup. When it went south on offense we just quit playing any defense. Probably time for this season to end but absolutely have no reason to think next year will...

    2024 U.S. Census county population estimates

    Probably. I enjoyed it more than my wife but she really missed the grandkids and their activities. Lived in a 55+ community and there are pluses and minuses to that but made some great friends and the crazy thing is most were midwest retirees.

    2024 U.S. Census county population estimates

    We did Arizona for 5 years after retirement. Lived west of Surprize and could usually drive 2 hours southeast and never leave the metro and it continues to expand in every direction. Miss the weather and golf but moved back to Ames for the Cyclones and family. Property taxes were half in Arizona...

    *** Official #9 IOWA STATE vs Oklahoma State Game(Day) Thread ***

    It's like he is trying to send a message. Absolutely crazy lack of focus, no energy, and effort. Put some bench people in and send a real message Tamin and JJ are just awful.

    Every rebound and loose ball to Okie State. Embarrassing effort.

    Favorite movies many may not know about

    Just watched this on Netflix last week and really forgot how good it is. Really top notch cast and worth a watch to see how beautiful Elisha Cuthbert was in this role.

    *** Official #8 IOWA STATE vs #16 Kansas Game(Day) Thread ***

    And most were really good looks. We really do lack shooters and Self was fine letting Jefferson, Lipsey, and Gilbert shoot 3s tonight.

    *** Official #8 IOWA STATE vs #16 Kansas Game(Day) Thread ***

    Sometimes it's a triple team and we leave 2 guys wide open. We at times seem to just chase the ball and an extra pass leads to an open 3. KState did the same thing. TJ needs to somehow shake things up and get some energy especially on offense.

    No idea what we are trying to do on offense.

    **** WBB: Cyclones host #9 TCU - Game Thread - 3:00 pm FS1 ****

    Watched a lot of games this year and the women's game is mirroring the men's in that you pretty much have to be old either through retention or the portal. Imagine a 5th year Lexi on this team. Plus defender, good ball handler, a 3 point shooter fills a lot of voids. Don't know the back story...
