Nashville-
The "wooo girls" as the locals call them will be in full force. Pedal taverns/buses/etc full of Bachelorette and lady retreats. Unfortunately, the Jersey and Chicgo bro bachelor parties caught on and quickly followed. Broadway is what it is, about 50 honky tonks bars, bright lights, all... -
Milwaukee Fan Guide
Ironically no, other than the narrow margin on trademark infringement :D ha, I kid! I did come up with the name and trademarked in 2013 (actually had to buy it from a Wine Company) Decent restaurant though and very close to where I grew up. I stopped in a few years back and it was packed. If...- delt4cy

Central Standard. Yep, I'm still an owner, but no longer active in the management and operation. Live in ATL now. Thanks for the shout out. We opened a new facility right in the heart of downton within walking distance of all the primary hotels east of the river. Good TVs, food, rooftop...- delt4cy

What the hell is Bowlsby thinking?!
Beating a dead horse, but obviously SEC wants 12, so they can get 4 and some years 5 into the Playoff. (25% of their new conf.) Massive $ at stake. OU/UT almost certainly joined based on that assumption. This arrangement would give the top tier brands (Florida/UGA/Bama/A&M/LSU/OU/UT)... -
Report: OU & Texas reach out to join SEC
I mean it's not like ESPN and their mouthpieces have spent the last 10 years crafting a narrative to destabilize the Big12 or anything...... despite the ACC and SEC weak links providing just as bad of a competitve balance respectively.- delt4cy

COLUMN: What happens to Iowa State if the Big 12 implodes?
In theory, ESPN has an ~$750MM to $1B liability to the Big12 in contractual TV payouts over the next 4 years. UT/OU have a few years of TV revenue loss. To minimize that liability, I'm wondering if the TV execs (who seem to have unlimited power to dicatate these moves) are actively... -
COLUMN: What happens to Iowa State if the Big 12 implodes?
If I'm Mizzou, Arkansas, Mississippi, & Mississippi State (maybe Kentucky/South Carolina/Vandy/Tennessee depending on how the new divisions would line up) I would think long and hard whether the incremental revenue is worth it. Inevitably, there will be programs that become doormats when you... -
Williams/Blum Pod: It's time to start talking the next round of TV contracts
Here's a simple solution for OU. Quit absolutely stubbing your toe against K-State (or the like) year-in-and-year out! OU is in the playoffs this year and maybe has the horses to get to CCG if they don't absolutely choke against K-State. (almost every year they've been left out, a similar... -
Locations for winter RV resorts
The Phoenix MSA has many options. I would recommend Monte Vista, Viewpoint, or The Resort; all in Mesa. Since the Canadians aren't coming down in full numbers this year you should be able to find some short-term stat sites (1-3 months) Sun has a great Resort in Casa Grande, Palm Creek. Sun... -
Two Big XII team in NY6 bowls
I think a loss to OU and a Northwestern win over Ohio State might be the only way we get knocked out of the NY6. I think we drop to 9/10 with a loss, unless the committee punishes ISU for having 3 losses compared to Indiana's daunting 7 game slate. In Northwestern win situation, both Ohio... -
Realignment talk! Boise St coach wants to leave the Mountain West
IMO, the Group of 5 should create their own 4 team playoff with a "championship" the week of P5 championships. If one of the G5 goes undefeated with a schedule like that, it would probably be the best argument for a spot in the playoff they could achieve. Could also just create an 8 team...- delt4cy

Bowl Game
Correction: If OU wins Big12 CG and somehow were to sneak into Playoffs with 2 losses, we would not backdoor into a NY6. Would have to qualify for an at-large spot by finishing in the Top 10ish. (Another reason our NY6 affiliation is inferior to B1G and SEC) -
Bowl Game
There are a lot of possibilities. Not as simple as Cotton or Alamo. Actually, since the Sugar is a semifinal, the Big12 Champ (assuming no playoff) will be placed based on "best matchup and location". That's why most have the Cotton slotted, but could be any of Peach, Fiesta, or Cotton. This... -
Yahoo Sports Story on Matt Campbell
I think the culture of our fanbase really meshes well with his personality. Nothing is given, everything has been and will always be earned. A build it and they will come mentality. I think MC understands and appreciates that. I love that through Thanksgiving- Iowa State will have more wins... -
Where should I move?
We moved to Atlanta from the Midwest last summer. Love it. Not having that impending doom/gloom of winter hanging over late fall is an awesome feeling. Also, it's great actually living the greenery and beautiful weather of the Masters in early April. I cover the SE markets and each place... -
PODCAST: Jamie Pollard on the last 14 days
We are at an interesting juncture where the Univeristy, it's image/visibility, and national perceptions are being driven by Athletics. That's what happens when schools develop strong Athletic programs and teams. The results have been a rising enrollment, increasing funds, and a massive... -

Big XII considering plus 1 schedule
This makes sense. Standardize testing, rules, policy amongst the ACC/SEC/Big12; ie. twice/week, daily, etc. and then create a 10 game schedule starting 9/12. You have the finanical wherewithal and aligned interests amongst this group to execute. Home games are going to be worthless. There...- delt4cy

Chuba Hubbard Returns
OSU is going to be very good next year. This solidifies that further. They were young and now bring back almost all of their key pieces. I expect them to be Top 2 in preseason Big 12 rankings. OU/OSU/.....(UT/ISU/Baylor)- delt4cy

City Council Approves 40-Acre Entertainment District
My mistake. I thought this was the Ames Entertainment District thread! No digression I guess. mred- Ikea needed Interstate visibility & our large tract of developable land was key. Wasn't as readily available in desired West side locations. Also, as you point out, closer proximity to the...
