    what is the TV situation for UNI in Cedar Rapids?

    Just said that the signal was bad and they are working to fix it. Got hung up on when I asked if I could get the ESPN channel until it is fixed.

    what is the TV situation for UNI in Cedar Rapids?

    On the phone with mediacom right now and they aren't sure yet why we aren't getting it in eastern Iowa. I'll post more when I get an update.

    Halloween

    My wife and I did this last year. Even bought handcuffs and a hawkeye ball cap. Being that I live in CR the responses we got were, "Um...duh....so what are you? Oh a hawkeye football player...I don't get it!" Although everyone who wasn't a hawkeye homer thought it was hilarious.

    Bobby Brown, QB, Storm Lake HS

    I had never heard of him either until the last couple of days. A quick search online lists Nebraska, Iowa, and Illinois all being interested. I guess his grades are decent and Stanford has also been talking to him. I'm not a fan, just had a friend ask me if I knew anything about this kid and...

    Bobby Brown, QB, Storm Lake HS

    I heard some rumors today that the coaching staff was interested in Bobby Brown (QB from Storm Lake). Just wanted to know if anyone else had heard this and what are his chances at ISU. He is a senior, so assuming JT is the starter after AA, Bobby Brown could come in and red shirt. After JT...

    Jobs: BA positions in Omaha

    Bob Slydell: What would you say ya do here? Tom Smykowski: Well look, I already told you! I deal with the goddamn customers so the engineers don't have to! I have people skills! I am good at dealing with people! Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?

    MLB: Angels pitcher killed in car crash

    Wow. I was actually at the game last night and was really impressed with him. Nice breaking ball but was just missing his spots in the first couple of innings. Seemed like nobody from the A's could really get a solid hit on the guy, just bloops and fouls for the most part. Very sad.

    Oklahoma Texas REMATCH could it happen?

    actually there is a rule that a team must win their conference championship to play the NCG. This was put in right after Nebraska played in the NCG after losing in the big 12 championship.

    East Central 116, Texas Tech 167

    Re: TT scores 167 Thank you for policing this!!! Anyways it really didn't shock me at first. I just figured that harrel had another great game... But then I realized it was their BB team and then I was shocked. And then I found 5 dollars.

    Cubs get Kevin Gregg

    I hate to see Wood leave as well, but I think its time to let him go if he wants a long term contract. With his history the Cubs can't sign him to a multiple year deal. Hopefully we'll get Demp back and he wasn't a 1 yr wonder as a starter. Put Marmol in the closing spot and give Jeff S a little...

    Rockwell Collins

    Untrue statement. Their are lots of people who work in the manufactoring department besides just the workers. For example you have supervisors, managers, buyers, schedulers, and the list goes on. There are a lot of ISU grads who work within one of those positions.

    Best Iowa High School Basketball Players Ever

    I was at that game as well. I thought it went into a couple of OT's. Could be wrong, I would've been around 10 yrs old. Every year the PP/NF game was good to be at. Also the substate game when Scott made the over-the-shoulder shot from his knees was good.

    Day Care

    Congrats!! We are having the same problem here in CR. Due Dec 23rd, we are on a couple waiting lists (including the daycare where I work). But we've checked and its anywhere from $160-200/week for an infant. We've decided that she will cut back her hours from work and send the little one to the...

    Ryan Leaf: HAHA

    I agree with you cycopath25. Everytime a hawk gets into trouble a majority of members get on here and laughs. I admit that I am one of those who find humor in the amount of Hawks that get into trouble. What is the difference between laughing at a hawk getting into trouble for alcohol and RL...

    High School Football Playoffs

    Don't think that we were saying it is unfair. Just showing that in the lower class where there are more teams an expanded playoffs is needed. I'm all for it and not trying to relive the glory days.

    High School Football Playoffs

    I think I would've like the expanded playoffs. We lost our 1st game to a team that came down in class (Galva/Hol) and then we won our next 8 games and still didn't make playoffs.

    Way to go out on a limb and say the champ will come from 1 of the top 4 ranked teams in most preseason polls. You should be an analyst...........wait a minute :biglaugh:
