    I know, I know, but seriously… Bring Back Baseball

    The sport is growing. Find a way to make it work.

    Hear me out… Iowa State University of Science and Technology AND Model Brewery

    ISU was founded in 1858 as Iowa Agricultural College and Model Farm. Using the growing microbrew industry and Ames Lager as inspiration, let’s open a brewery on campus and use the profits to pay our student athletes.:jimlad:

    What’s the story, Wishbone?

    What's the story, Wishbone? What's this you're dreaming of? Such big imagination on such a little pup! What's the story Wishbone? Do you think it's worth a look? It kinda seems familiar like a story from a book! Shake a leg now, Wishbone! Let's wag another tail. Sniffin' out adventure with...

    New ISU Podcast

    I don’t know how many of you have seen, but former players Keith Schrage and Kent Anderson have started a new ISU podcast called Tracking the Storm. Looks like they’re putting one out every couple weeks. So far they’ve had on Dave Archer and Jim Walden, and they said they’ll have former ISU...

    Bring back “gold” helmets?

    I can’t be the only one. Maybe something kind of like this? Somebody can probably do a better job, but I like this general design.

    The Dumb Tiebreaker Problem

    These giant conferences have to find a better way to determine who goes to the conference championship games, or else they should just get rid of the conference championship games entirely. We all know about Duke getting into the ACC championship game over Miami based on some weird formula, but...

    Let's take a poll: Do you want to play Memphis in Memphis again?

    I say no emphatically. EDIT: I want to be clear that we’re talking about playing against Memphis in the Liberty Bowl. I don’t think most fans would have a problem with playing in the Liberty Bowl again against a different opponent, although we might prefer a different bowl this year since we...

    Starting to think the Big 12 gets at least two teams in the playoff

    I don’t see Utah losing again, and I don’t think they’re going to make the conference championship game either. The ACC looks like hot garbage. We’ll see what the CFP rankings look like, I suppose.

    The Former G5 Schools

    Three of the top four teams in the Big 12 right now are former G5 schools that were added when Texas and Oklahoma left. After a rough transition in Year 1, those teams are at the top of the league standings in Year 3.

    I no longer think the league sucks

    I actually think it’s pretty solid and that we overreacted to a few losses to solid SEC teams and our bottom feeders looking like crap. We don’t have a top five caliber team but we have a number of top 30 caliber teams that can compete for the conference championship. I don’t think anybody has...

    MLB: Legal Way to Watch Brewers-Padres?

    I got Directv Stream and MLB.tv so I could watch any game I want. Turns out that since the Brewers are blacked out in Iowa, I can’t watch their game on the MLB app even though Des Moines Fox 17 picked up Yankees-Red Sox instead of Brewers-Padres. Any workarounds?

    Why do our highest profile pros have so many doubters?

    There are constant debates throughout the NFL season about whether Brock Purdy is actually any good or if he just has a bunch of talent around him. Tyrese Haliburton was “overrated” and then “not a superstar”. The results kind of speak for themselves, don’t they?

    How did you pick your allegiances?

    Does anybody support all the teams from one city? Or is it more typical for Iowans to be like me and kind of be all over the place? My family wasn’t particularly into sports. For the NFL, I picked the Packers because I lived in northeast Iowa and it was the Brett Favre Super Bowl years when I...

    What would you do with a $50 bonus bet?

    I want to put it on fairly long odds that have a decent shot. Kicking myself for not taking North Dakota State moneyline over Butler because I thought about it and didn’t pull the trigger.

    Root against the other teams at the top, right?

    Isn’t that what we want? Root against the other Big 12 teams with one conference loss or fewer. Root for teams above us in the national rankings to lose.

    Hey Millennials, want to feel old?

    Blink-182’s song “What’s My Age Again?” came out halfway between now and when Terry Jacks’ “Seasons in the Sun” came out. Alanis Morissette’s Jagged Little Pill came out halfway between present day and the Beatles’ Revolver.

    Talen Horton-Tucker

    Does anybody know why his playing time fluctuates so wildly? He’ll have a few games where he scores 20+ points, then maybe one where he scores in the teens, then he doesn’t play hardly at all for a stretch of games. Is he dealing with injuries or something?

    Switching between apps to watch games is a PITA

    Anybody know a workaround for this? I hate when there are multiple games I want to keep track of and some of them are on YouTubeTV and another one is on ESPN+ and another one is on Peacock or Paramount+. I have a Firestick and it’s a pain to have to hit the home button, find the other app, get...

    Bowls are cool and all, but…

    They’re kind of an anti-climactic way to end the college football season. We spend 14 weeks watching the teams play, then they’re off for three or four weeks before going to some random location to play a glorified exhibition game. Anymore, the more exciting matchups on paper are tainted by...
