    Caleb Grill has been dismissed from team

    You literally have no idea what unfolded and your statement is 100% opinion. Blaming his removal on back pain and then subsequently erratic behavior because of opioids? wut?

    Caleb Grill has been dismissed from team

    I believe this is in regards to a rumor becoming fact regarding Grilling season. Qualifies as "deep subject"

    Texas game is on the Longhorn Network

    I have YouTubeTV and ESPN+ in California. Maybe it's because I'm out of market, but I'm seeing that I will have the game on ESPN+ tonight.

    Matt Campbell and Iowa State

    Hurts, Mahomes and Burrow don't have that? But the narrative with them isn't that they're just benefiting from being in the right system with the right weapons around them..... this is a terrible, tired take from non-experts.

    Seems most draft pundits are critical of our usage of Will McDonald last year:

    Having a top 10 defense does not mean that every player was used correctly or in the most beneficial manner to their individual playing style. They aren't mutually exclusive.

    Cryptocurrency

    Comparing actual currency to Beanie Babies.... we should all take investment advice from you. One clear statement before you try and defend yourself. A person can walk into many places, or online, and actually trade Bitcoin for a product. I don't recall ever walking into Audi and trading my...

    49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1

    Do not start Purdy on your fantasy team this week, he's facing one of the top rated defenses in the NFL known for confusing opposing QBs and it's supposed to be raining off and on all day Sunday in Santa Clara. I can see the 9ers pulling this off at home as long as Purdy takes care of the ball...

    How to negotiate starting salary (mega-corps)?

    I'd start at $125-$135k. If they like you as a candidate they won't eliminate you, they'll simply come back and say, "our offer is $XYZ". No one is walking away from a desired candidate because the candidate asked for a few grand more than HR was willing to pay. Also how did they react / body...

    How to negotiate starting salary (mega-corps)?

    Where is this job located? The cost of living is a huge factor into your salary. But even for low cost of living locations, $100k feels extremely low for your level of education especially considering you also have experience.

    Chicago Bears bought Arlington Heights track only to build next to Soldier Field?

    NFL owners used to be prohibited from owning other professional teams in cities that had NFL teams (if there was no NFL team it wasn't an issue). For example The Vikings owner could own the Twins because they're both in Msp but the Vikings owner could not own the Guardians (because Cleveland...

    Naz Long Practice Jersey

    I think you're better off working a deal with someone on this board. The larger population you'll reach on Ebay won't value it like Iowa State fans. To us Naz and Matt are worth a lot more than to a non-Iowa State person. I know that doesn't help with value but you should list a starting...

    Songs people think are great that you don't

    Sweet Caroline. I think it's a terribly stupid song and I loathe that we play it like it's "ours". The Red Sox started it in the 90's and it grinds my gears when I hear us play it.

    Pitch an idea to new B12 Commish ITT

    All good, we all get our opinions. Was mostly curious why those 3 very specific cities. *Note - I'm not against the tournament, in fact I enjoy the in season tournaments of various professional leagues.

    Pitch an idea to new B12 Commish ITT

    1) Ok I'll buy into that 2) There are more Big 12 Alumni in Texan cities that Denver or Chicago, this sounds like a personal desire for you and not conference benefit 3) The NFL is a global brand, the Big 12 has minimal followers outside of the Midwest and Texas 4) I discussed this one in my...

    Pitch an idea to new B12 Commish ITT

    Why would the Big 12 play a Big 12 only tournament in Denver, Chicago or Nashville - three states that don't even have Big 12 teams? Yes I get KC is a Big 12 state without a team as well but it's central to the conference and in proximity to many Big 12 teams.
