    Dubuquer is new Boeing CEO

    Kelly Ortberg is an interesting choice. PR is making a lot of his Mech E degree, but at that level I don't know how much impact it really has. Met him a few times when I was at RC. Nice guy, kind of a quiet demeanor, almost too nice to be the CEO. But I think he is a good consensus...

    KC Tourney Food

    Didn't see it elsewhere. Feel like a walking taco might have been better for us, although hard to argue with a pork tenderloin being a good pick. Have to admit, "wabash cannondog" is a great name. The Big 12 and Levy Restaurants will be introducing #Big12Eats at T-Mobile Center this year...

    Pollard interview on 365 Sports

    A little about a lot, but some good quotes there on the NCAA. Worth a listen. One thing I heard was JP hinting around that OuT just can not break GoR in any practical way. Unless, you know, the TV partners wanted to throw something out there...

    Where to sell a walnut tree?

    I had to cut down a big walnut tree as it was too close to the house and some stonework. The main trunk is roughly 30 ft long and 24-18" wide or so. Anyone have any suggestions where to sell it? I will contact some local sawmills, but figured I would ask the class...

    2019-2020 Season Prediction (Poll)

    Didn't see a record prediction thread... mods please delete if someone already did one and I missed it. I'm not super optimistic. Too many new pieces and a history of Prohm taking time to experiment first and worry about wins later. Thinking 18-13 and about .500 in conference. Hopefully on...

    Run-Pass (Im)Balance

    I know this is well-covered ground, but just to put some stats on it: The numbers bear out that when they get cute and throw it around too much, bad things happen. Was tempted to look at last year too, maybe someone else has the time. Mea culpa if any of the stats are wrong, quickly copied...

    Moving a garage?

    Have a decent 2 car garage, but need to have more garage space. Unfortunately, the way the backyard is set up the existing garage blocks off access to the entire backyard where you would build a 2nd garage. Has anyone ever moved a garage or other building? How tough? Cost? We'd have to...

    O-Line Question

    Someone help me figure this out, should my kool-aid glass be half-full or half-empty? Is Newell beating out JGJ for center is a great thing? or if it is something to be highly concerned about? It kinda feels like it is one of these 2 possibilities: 1. Newell is a mega-stud, and even JGJ, who...

    Reasons for Optimism (or, Don't Burn Your Tickets Yet)

    At this moment, the UWM game is still undecided. ISU down 10, and deep in the We all recognize that this looks like hot wet garbage. But I think there are some reasons to be optimistic. 1. Chemistry. We saw this last year early, when CSP was experimenting with rotations early, and it got...
