The only firing up I'll be doing for football this year is for the grill. I've been yearning for some tailgating and some outdoor drinking ever since the weather has turned nice.

Seriously you all... stop whining like spoiled children and support this team. They are just 18-22+ year old kids doing this for the love of the game. Some positivity around here wouldn't hurt. For f!ck's sake. We are FINALLY revamping out stadium after talking about it for the last 4+decades. No more "high school stadium" jokes, lets fill it up. It is a new year, with a Senior QB with talent at WR. Yes, we lost some heartbreaking games last year. It sucked. We all know this. The margin of error for ISU teams isn't significantly large. I think we at least owe them the benefit of the doubt to see how they do the first couple of games before we throw them off the cliff with the rest of the lemmings.
While I and others can understand that people are frustrated with the last coupe of seasons, there is one thing we can control as fans and show them support. People do notice (ESPN/FSN announcers, news paper articles and blogs) and it is tremendously positive not only for perception but as a foundation to build from. We have a very loyal and compassionate fan base. I think as fans we wouldn't be helping our cause if we turned a cold shoulder now.

Last season CW had the ticket going to the Spring Football game, that way we didn't have to wait nearly half a year for a major Iowa State sporting event.
Truer words were never spoken...who in their right mind can get fired up for a football team that's won just One Conference Game in 2 Years......
We are officially worse than KU and that's whats really sad......
We've won 2** in 2 years FWIW.
That said, if we lose to UNI in the opener I may go off the deep end.
Geez. Never has a game against a FCS school been so important for power 5 team.

At least we have football to look forward to, right?
If you don't get a lifetime ban for this, I will be pretty surprised.

We could have a 358 game losing streak and I would still be fired up for the beginning of a new season. I'm going to watch every game that is televised no matter how bad we are. FOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTBBAAAAALLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!
