    Summer brain rot

    Any YouTube recommendations for my kids to mix in with their Sunny and Melon Roblox videos and horrible shorts? We enjoy Mark Rober for some science and engineering, but I was wondering if anyone has some other good finds for kids educational. It's not educational but we are enjoying Ryan...

    Options to create calendar reminders as a 3rd party

    I'm not sure I can articulate specifically what I'm wanting to do, but here it goes. I want to create a system to make a calendar reminder for others to send to their clients. Basically these groups that I want to create calendar invites for have clients that need to do some simple management...

    Smart devices that aren't phones or tablets

    Looking for some gift ideas for my kids and was wondering if there were any options that would be the equivalent of a Sony Walkman from the 90s. I'm thinking of something that has wifi that could connect to something like Spotify and other podcast services. Not interested in an MP3 player...

    Open letter thread for appreciating Otz

    The Nick Nurse news reminded me that it’s great to not have to spend the first 3 months of every offseason speculating on where your program leader is going to be next season. It’s much more fun to focus on how your coach is signing the highest recruiting classes in school history, while...

    Is it safe to reuse an in ground basketball hoop anchor system

    I have an existing anchor system from the previous home owner for a goalrilla hoop. The bolts and surface of the concrete appear to be in good shape. Can I install a new hoop on the existing system or is that a major safety risk?

    NBA Top Shot

    Has anyone gotten into this yet? Tyrese has been plugging it like crazy. I was able to get a "pack" in the drop today for $15. The pack had 3 moments in it. I've already sold 1 moment for $22 and I have another listed for $450. NBA Top Shot | Officially Licensed Digital Collectibles

    Cyclone Fanatic Word Press

    Don't really know how to describe it, but sometimes when I open CF it almost appears like I'm logged in to an admin account for the word press side of things. The option to go to the dashboard is there. I don't really know what that would and wouldn't allow me to do as I don't feel like I should...

    Bike trainer recommendations

    I'm thinking about picking up a bike trainer to get some cardio in during the winter months. Does anyone have insights on if they are worth it, and what to look for? Are they noisy, and how hard are they on your road bike? TIA.

    Merrill Holden completes Master's program

    Good for him getting his Master's degree. May not have panned out like he expected on the court, but he put his work in off the court. https://cyclonesidebar.wordpress.com/2018/05/04/holden-completes-masters-degree-three-others-also-graduate/

    Availability of football parking passes

    Was thinking of trying to pick up a parking pass this year. Are they generally available, or is it a shot in the dark at the Cardinal level? TIA

    Screw it, let's rock Hilton

    Season hasn't turned out like we've wanted yet, but these players deserve better. Hilton has been dead for the Texas and TCU games, and we have no big name games left at home. Who cares, it needs to be rocking. Let's give this team some swagger for the final run.

    Hilton Gameday playlist available on Spotify

    For any Spotify users out there, this can get you through the drudgery of the work day today. Just search for Cyclone Athletics or Hilton Gameday. I think there is only 1 song that appeared on Jock Jams on the list (Macho Man).

    Winter Ale Season

    I always love the winter ales as I think the spiced complex winter ales are a great change of pace, especially in cold weather. Just curious to see what people like out there? I always pick up a few of the Anchor Steam's Christmas Ale for a vertical tasting (2011 was my favorite). Currently am...
