    Defense Limiting Scoring Runs

    Anecdotally this season one thing I've noticed is this team seems to do a great job of limiting their opponents from going on big runs. It always seems like we're keeping pace with our opponent or building a lead (or chipping into a lead in the few times we've been behind). So I went through...

    Handicap Parking @ Jack Trice

    I've gotten tickets to the Kansas game from my son and I, and my brother and his son who is uses a wheelchair. Does anyone have experience with handicap parking in lot S1 on a game day? Wondering if we need to get there super early or if only an hour before game time would be fine. We won't...

    UNI Tickets Through ISU

    Does anyone know what the ticket limit is for sales through ISU when they become available on Thursday? I need to get tickets for a group of 6 together. I wouldn't think that'd be a problem but we've always bought through StubHub in the past, so thought we'd see what we could get through ISU...

    Hilton Parking - Lot B1

    So on the north side of Scheman is lot B1, just northwest of Hilton, that is a reserved staff parking lot. It doesn't show up as a donor lot on the athletics department parking map for basketball games. My wife works for the University now and has a reserved pass. Does anyone know if this lot...

    New Retired Number???

    So I posted this in the game thread last night, but figured I'd make a new post on it. Last night at the game I noticed they moved where the retired numbers hang and that there was a folded up banner next to them. It seems pretty clear that its a new banner for retired numbers as it doesn't...

    Ready Player One

    Anyone else excited for this? I read the book awhile back and loved it. Looks like there will be some changes to the book, but hard to argue with something Spielberg is involved with.

    ISU Basketball Camps

    I've got an 8 year old that is starting to get serious about playing basketball, so we've been looking for some opportunities to do some more focused basketball instruction for him. I saw ISU has a couple of different camp opportunities, mainly one through ISU with Coach Prohm and one that...

    Radio for Friday night's game against Savannah State

    So I have to drive from Des Moines to Chicago Friday night and miss the Savannah State game. I'll be in the car for the game, probably in eastern Iowa and Illinois. It appears there is a channel out of the QC that has the game, but I'll loose that relatively quickly outside of town. Does...

    Stranger Things

    Anybody excited about this Netflix show releasing tomorrow. Looks pretty good IMO, definitely a filler for the summer void of TV shows. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWxyRG_tckY

    Movers in Des Moines

    Anyone have a good recommendation for a moving company in the Des Moines metro? We're moving from Urbandale to Johnston in mid-July. Already tried Two Men and a Truck and Black Belt Movers, both were already full for the day we need to move.

    Real Estate Question - Profit as a downpayment

    So last night we accepted an offer on our house, this is the first house I've sold, so this side of it is new to me. We've set the closing date on our current home as July 15. Tomorrow we're looking at and hopefully putting an offer on a house. Ideally, the new house would have a closing date...

    Concession Stands at Hilton

    I know this gets brought up every year, but once again, the concession stands at Hilton are atrocious. Missed tip-off last night because it took 15 minutes to get 5 people through the line. Do they not give the volunteer groups any training on how to run a concession stand? I've worked...

    New Used Car Opinion

    So I killed a deer with my car earlier this week and have finally narrowed the replacement down to two used Nissan Rogue's. What is everyone's opinion on this scenario? Rogue 1 and Rogue 2 have the same options and features. Rogue 1 has 9k more miles and is $200 less. Rogue 1 and Rogue 2 are...

    Cutting the Cord

    So we are thinking about dropping our satellite subscription and going to streaming services only. Anyone else done this and have advice? Right now we're paying $175 for DirecTV, CenturyLink, Netflix, and HBO Now. It looks like if we drop DirecTV and add Hulu Plus, we'd take our bill down to...

    Uber

    I'm going out of town to Seattle for work and thinking about trying out Uber for the trip from the airport. Anybody that's used it have any advice? I always get a little nervous trying out a new service like this.

    Radio in Chicago for tomorrow's game

    Anybody know what stations have a good signal in Chicago to listen to the game tomorrow? I thought I had a place to stop and watch it but that seems to have fallen through, so now I'll be driving into the north side during the game. Route is up I-88 from QC and into the north side. I should...

    1/27/15 Big12 MBB Games

    WVU is at KState and Baylor is at OSU. What's the best scenario for us in these games? I'm not sure who to root for in the first game. KState winning puts them back ahead of us and would prevent WVU from getting a road win. I'm thinking KState will collapse eventually, so maybe it's best...
