    Game Changers Film

    Has anyone seen this? I watched it on Netflix last night and I'm not gonna lie, it was compelling. I Googled some opposing views today, so I know they are out there. But how can you argue with FDNY firefighters dropping their bad cholesterol by close to 100 points in 7 days?!? Thoughts?

    Montgomery

    Great read on David Montgomery. Included some things I didn't know about. As a Bears fan, I wish the bears would commit to having a running game already! https://currently.att.yahoo.com/att/david-montgomery-save-bears-133228567.html

    Is it just me...

    I see a lot of Dabo Swinney in Matt Campbell. They're both humble guys. Grinders. Emotional. Great coaches, but have greater integrity.

    Calling all Cyclone Sleuths

    This was spotted by my son today on the campus of Loyola Univ. - Chicago. Any idea why it's there?

    Consider this...

    I'm not usually a "look on the bright side" kind of person when you get robbed the way we've been robbed this year, but consider this: when was the last time Iowa State football was competitive in every single game they ended-up losing? I've been a Iowa State fan since I arrived on campus as an...

    Free throw shooting

    I've been saying all season long, and posted it here not too long ago, that in a tight game pi$$ poor free throw shooting would be our demise. 6 of 15 from the line? There's your ball game right there. Oh..have having Georges would have helped too.

    We did not deserve to win

    Screw-job by the refs or not, it would have never gotten to that point if we just bat-down the hail mary at the end of the 1st half.

    Just got back

    Just got back to Chicago from Dayton after driving through one of the worst blizzards I've ever seen in Central Indiana. After seeing replays of the Clyburn "charge" (wink, wink), boy am I steamed (I really didn't have a good angle on the play at the game). I wish the NCAA would just shut-up...

    Pop-Up Ads

    What is it with the pop-up ads on this site? On none of the other countless websites that I visit do I get even one pop-up, but here I get one every time I click on a new page. Does this happen to anyone else?

    So I walked into the chow hall tonight...

    ...here at Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan, & what do I see on the TVs -- a replay of the Baylor game on AFN! I've been here over a year & all the sports I've seen on AFN have been broadcasts of ESPN/ESPN2/ESPNU, ABC, CBS, NBC, Versus, etc. I've haven't before seen something like the Cyclone...

    Glad I got up at 4:30 AM!

    I'm glad I got up at 4:30 AM to watch the game here at beautiful Camp Leatherneck Afghanistan! I wasn't even sure if AFN would pick it up, but they did. I'm tired all all get-out right now, but it was worth it!

    THANK YOU!

    I work for a defense contractor in Afghanistan. This is my first football season away from home. I want to send a big thank you to all the posters on the game thread! Between ESPN play-by-play and the game thread posts it ALMOST felt like I was watching the game! It's 12:0 AM here on Sunday...

    Win the Big XII Tourney

    That's what Pollard needs to say to McD.

    Not meant to be...

    Does anyone have the feeling that McD and ISU are not meant to be? I do not think he is a bad coach and I do not think we have bad players, but over these past 4 years, things have not gelled & it just hasn't "felt right." McD had success at UNI and I wouldn't be surprised if he has great...

    Dish Network

    According to my son Dish Network is offering a free preview of ESPN Full Court this week (at least in the Chicago area) and that the game can be found on Channel 458 or 464.

    It occurred to me

    It occurred to me, based on the presumed B10 geographic expansion criteria (i.e., new market with lots of people so they can make even more $$), that if any one of the B10 schools was hypothetically not a member and vying for a spot, the only ones that would even be considered would be Minny...
