    No way! We've landed on the moon! That's great!

    SpaceX won the only bid today to develop their lunar lander. $2.9 billion. Kind of surprising as it was assumed they would choose two, but it sounds like they only had the money to pay for a single bid. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/04/16/nasa-lunar-lander-contract-spacex/

    SpaceX Starship

    Anyone watch the test flight/fall/attempted landing just now? I'm shocked they were that close to landing it on the first attempt. Actually made it to the landing pad, but didn't quite stick the landing. First step to Mars. SpaceX Stream Everday Astronaut if you want a little commentary...

    Ivermectin for treating covid19

    Also a good interview about PCR tests. https://bretigne.typepad.com/on_the_banks/2020/12/wtmwd-50-kevin-.html?utm_campaign=shareaholic&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=socialnetwork

    Black bear living near the Quad Cities

    It wouldn't have surprised me to hear of a black bear being spotted in northeast Iowa. But to see one roaming that far south is a little shocking.

    Coaching Salaries

    USA Today put out the list of NCAA basketball coaching salaries. Keep this in mind when expecting top 20 results, from a coach that is paid near the bottom for power conference teams. http://sports.usatoday.com/ncaa/salaries/mens-basketball/coach/

    State Track Meet - Sydney Milani

    Anyone following the state track meet? Iowa State recruit Sydney Milani has already won the state title in the 100, 400 and 800. She is also the overwhelming favorite to win the 200. She has the all-time state record for the 100, 200 and 400. Is she the best track recruit we've ever gotten?

    Australian Open Men's Final

    Anyone else catch the men's final between Federer and Nadal? Crazy to have those two back on top of the sport for one tournament. I thought both of their careers were basically over, especially Federer who hadn't won a grand slam since 2012 and is 35 years old. Awesome to see those two square...

    Make or miss game.

    At the end of the day basketball is a make or miss game. UNI made more shots than us tonight. We gave them some open one with bad defense, but they hit a TON of tough shots including about 5-6 NBA threes. Meanwhile we have good shooters missing open shots over and over including Cook air...

    Hoiberg's lost this team?

    Classic overreaction tonight. That's why you don't give up on a game, much less the season and this team. Quite frankly, many fans on here don't deserve to enjoy this win. Absolutely embarrassing how quickly fans turn on a team. Good thing those players have more composure than most "fans"...

    Game Replay

    Is the game replay available anywhere? I didn't get to watch it live. It looks like every other game that was on the ESPN networks today is available on WatchESPN, except for ours. What the hell is that about?

    Sioux City Texas Tech Game Watch

    I've only live in Sioux City a few months and don't have Fox Sports 1 included with my cable package. Anyone in Sioux City know a good place to watch the game today? Bob Roe's? Buffalo Wild Wings? Or is there a better place? Thanks in advance.

    Professional sports in college

    With the amount of money that is being made off college athletes, how long until they start getting paid? With the way the NCAA is being controlled by money it might as well be considered a professional sports league. They should quit kidding themselves and just allow players to be paid, that...

    This weather blows..

    literally. Is it ever going to warm up in Iowa? We get one nice day followed by 2 weeks more of winter hell. Is it too much to ask for the mid 50's to 60 with a slight breeze. I can handle 40's, but not when its this windy. I swear there aren't even wind gusts, its just a constant blowing...

    Charles Boozer article.

    Nice article written by Courtney Linehan on Boozer. Go Cyclones - OUT OF THE SHADOW A lot of people think he will transfer because he isn't playing much, I could be wrong but I don't see it. He seems to know that he will never be a great basketball players and he's just enjoying the game and...

    Dexter

    Any other fans of the show "Dexter" out there? One of my friends got me watching it a couple weeks ago and now I'm hooked.

    Rutgers football

    Rutgers is a perfect example of how hard it is for smaller programs to stay at the top of the college football world. Such a big deal was made about how they had built their program under Schiano and they experienced about 2 years of pretty good success. Right now, they are being destroyed...

    Almost no-hitter.

    This is why I don't like baseball. The Brewers win the game and all anyone cares about is that Sabathia didn't get credit for a no hitter. There is no sport that cares more about stats than baseball, almost to the point where records are more important than winning games. Honestly, if Bonds...

    Defense (hedging?)

    Bringing out a basketball term here, but it seemed like our big guys, mainly Thompson and Jiri, did a better job hedging off ball screens then I can ever remember. They stuffed the pick'n'roll nearly the whole game. It was one thing that really stood out to me as a HUGE improvement in our...

    O-Line

    One thing that definitely has stuck out to me through 3 games is that the offensive line looks clearly better than last year. This has to be due to coaching considering they are way less experienced than lat years unit.
