    If your Chip Kelly (oregon coach)...

    I live here, and 67% of the delusional and obnoxious duck fans (who are very similar to hawkeye fans) want him booted off the team. If you or I shove a cop who is trying to restrain us, we would be wondering how we would get out of jail, not if we were still on the team or not. I say BSU...

    How about them Beavers!!!!!!

    I live in PDX, and it's pretty fun right now. What a fun game to watch. They needed career days, and all the breaks and they got them. I think it is funny how the dynamic between OSU and Oregon is very, very similar to the ISU-Iowa dynamic. It's almost identical.

    Playcalling, coaching, etc. - consolidated thread

    I was watching with my brother, who is not a clone or hawkeye, and really doesn't care about Iowa football, and at the half he said, "Man, this is some bad football. Do we have to watch the second half?" We tried to watch the chiefs-raiders the next day with similar results. Both teams...

    New England Patriots

    Very stupid. I was thinking, you are either playing with yourself, or the dumbest bunch of fantasy owners I have ever heard of. Belechick is the devil. Brady is the Anti-Christ. Nobody is this good. Wait and see, the entire cheating scandal was a plant, a planned execution of a strategy...

    Woohoo Boston!

    I was pretty disappointed to see the sox advance instead of the tribe. But as a clone fan, I am pretty used to rooting for the upstart rather than the dynasty. Anyone else just think that maybe Boston has had enough sports success for a while? Bloody sox are in the World Series. BC is what, #2...

    Wow

    I agree nobody could expect 7-8 wins, but I think 4 would be a reasonable expectation. But hey, if hanging it all on the players or taking shots at me makes you feel better about our future, have at it if it helps you to sleep at night. I am not saying fire the Chizik. That would be stupid...

    Wow

    I wish I had a bunch of people who would stick up for me if I failed at my job the way you people do for Chizik. People in all sorts of work get handed piles of dung to make lemonade out of all the time, failure isn't an option, even if the guy before you was completely innept, and I can...

    We're lucky to have Jamie Pollard...

    I will interrupt the Pollard love fest. He gets credit for doing something, making some changes and shaking things up. Nice work on that. But pardon me if I don't start singing his praises up and down the street until after some of the seeds he has sown begin to fruit. I don't even see the...

    Family Guy Special: Star Wars

    I thought the best part was when Seth and Seth as Peter and Chris were going at it at the end about the Robot Chicken parody v. the Family guy one. Very good stuff. I was laughing out loud about half the time. My wife never even cracked a smile, so it wasn't for everyone. Great, kid, mow...

    Lou Holtz's motivational speaches

    Nobody can ignore that. I can't believe he get's broadcasting/commentating gigs. I can pretty much credit Lou and about 10 milllion obnoxious fans in Chicago for my deep, deep hatred of all things Notre Dame. Gimme Joe Paterno any day.

    Official ISU vs Toledo Autopsy Thread (Post-Game)

    Another....stomach....punch....loss. If someone could have found a way to convey to me just how painful it was going to be to be a lifelong cyclone fan, I might have gone to a different school. Excruciating.

    NEWS FLASH

    The believe the appropriate response is to say nothing, then while walking away mutter "I will bury you and everyone you ever loved in a forest."

    Fair weather fans...

    Fair weather cyclone fan.:biglaugh: That's very funny. Please tell me when the "fair" weather was, because I think I missed it. Was it those invites to all those really great bowl games that would be an embarassment to most respectable programs? There might have been a few years of mostly...

    Best ways to irritate hawkeye fans and supporters

    I am completely borrowing this from another post from several months back about what to do when a hawkeye yells something rude from a passing car: The best way to irritate hawkeye fans is to "chase them down the street yelling, "I will bury you in a forest!""

    If Iowa played Nebraska..who would you root for?

    Cornsuckers all the way. Better fans, and my loyalty to the big 12 conference is way stronger than my loyalty to the state of Iowa. A nonconference victory for any school lends credibility to every other school in the conference. A victory by Iowa does little to nothing for the clones.

    Pizza Pit?

    This thread is awesome. Lots of gastronomical memories that I haven't dragged out and dusted off for a long, long time. Good stuff for sure. What about that Thai place that was up above welch avenue station? Tep Thai or something? They had a dish called "Angry catfish" that would light...

    Pizza Pit?

    I thought rocky's was bad pizza. Just a step up from little sh Italy. The Cave Inn. Wow. I totally forgot about that place. What about that asian place in the same building upstairs? They had an orange chicken (not deep fried) that was awesome. To me, great plains was the best in Ames...

    OT:Black Donnellys

    I wasn't overly impressed. I don't know much about organized crime (just what they show on TV and movies), but the ending seemed kind of too easy. If that was all it took, why wouldn't someone else have done it sooner? And the love interest thing just seems tacked on and stupid. The way...

    Why did you choose to go to ISU?

    Hey,thanks for the negative rep! Don't worry, I did alright, but thanks for your concern. The Greek system? :baffled5wh: Sorry, didn't realize you were a fraterist. Just kidding. :biggrin9gp: The greek system was definitly not my cup of tea. I tried to get into a party at the Pikes my first...

    Yahoo's Big 12 Spring Drill preview

    I hope those boys are pretty dang motivated already and don't need written words to find it. But just in case: The players should be embarassed about last season. What a waste. Probably the most talented team in 30 years, and they blew it. They had the potential, and it ran down their leg...
