    Yeah, why not just have your standalone app only and use social media and YouTube to advertise. I am sure I am naive to the benefits of having apple or anyone else involved. I also think the B12 should buy each team the proper cameras and control the production of their own games. There is...

    Athletes you used to love/hate, but view differently now.

    Bill Cowher, couldn't not stand him when he coached. Completely flipped me after he retired.

    Which Position Group needs to "prove it" this season?

    OL needs like 3 prove it years in a row. We are 10 years into the best coach we have ever had, and year three of a pretty good OL coach. This needs to turn into a strength of the program time position group. Only way to take the next step in my minds. Last year by the end of the year they...

    New HP Printers

    Bought a color laser from Costco 5 or 6 years ago, have had to replace toner twice. My wife does her mom’s monthly invoices for her business. It’s so much better and long run cheaper than the old ink jets we had.

    Flavio would be gone, Flavio is just there to get them to the sale. At least that is what the guys on the F1 podcast I listen to think.

    Vacation in the Black Hills

    Did this last year for two nights on our way to the Tetons, Yellowstone and Glacier. First page hit the highlights. One thing I wish we would have done but didn’t is rent an ATV to go around. There were tons of them and it looked like a ton of fun. Guessing there are some off the main path...

    Lando should never have driven off the track and overtaken someone, that isn't allowed I don't care what the rules are about apex and all that ********. That said, Max was never making that corner and purposefully drove off the track, while engaged with another car. That in my mind that should...

    New music tradition?

    So need some old timers to chime in, I think I remember going to games in the early 90s and them playing this. My sister remembered for sure she was at ISU from ‘92-‘95. Can we have the Hamms beear song back too???? Asking for a friend. Thought the atmosphere was electric once we had the two...

    Williams & Blum today- FB attendance

    Haven't read this hole thread, but just a couple of thoughts on the general situation. Fans are pulled in a lot of directions and money is tighter now than it was in recent memory, so it doesn't' surprise me. However, to me this is just an indication that the AD probably has the stadium...

    F1 2024 Discussion

    Why is it so hard for F1 teams to figure this out? Just tell your drivers within the team, only passes on track count, unless you are on different tire strategies. Then Lando knows the only way he get to keep that place is to immediately give it back and pass him if he wants the win. Instead...

    ***Official USMNT Thread***

    Was at the stadium tonight. First half hour their energy carried them and they barely created. But they were the better team for that period. The ref certainly could have been better, and I don’t like doing this but if we find out after the tournament that he has a $10m slush fund now...

    Big 12 Considering $1B in Private Equity

    Gee I wonder what is different about the past than now. Oh yeah, players will be getting paid. Previously it was easy to swallow to not get paid for the work put in, but now, having to pay the players changes the equation. As far as that isn't how American sports work, things change just...

    Big 12 Considering $1B in Private Equity

    Taking PE money is no more or less crazy than, charging the university for the advertising the AD provides. We left amateur and student athlete behind years ago, stop clutching pearls and start looking for value. This is business now no longer amateur athletics. Sure they are but not the high...

    Big 12 Considering $1B in Private Equity

    been waiting to for something like this to post it. And we are at the point the schools and ADs need to seperate. Step 1) the schools should be paying the AD to advertise. Why is the athletics department paying for scholarship, when the school benefits more from the students the AD brings...
