So I ran out to get some takeout for lunch so I could be back for a noon conference call.
I see a car with personalized sleazy *** hawkeye license plates. UW BADGR

I didn't have my phone with me to take a picture. As soon as the conference call was done I grabbed my phone and drove back hoping the car would still be there but alas it was gone. Now I have to find that car again.

Why would you get hawkeye plates if you are a Badger fan?

Just a sad week for hawkeyes.

Agreed.

Also, I don't wanna hear how it affects the game. There are a couple Oklahoma State people I met here that were complaining about that plane crash the night before our game against them 4 years. It honestly doesn't matter in my opinion. It's a sad thing and shouldn't be associated with the upcoming game. It's a lose lose situation on this side of it as well. It is either motivation or an excuse for them. It shouldn't be either.

I agree with this. It was absolutely a tragedy, but those OSU football players had as much of a relationship with those coaches as the ISU players did.

Grabbed a lemon starburst from my candy sash. It's actually some kind of papaya or mango. That was a weird taste when expecting lemon.

Ugh.

My mom talks about the time she was in HS, and went to take a drink of what she thought was water. It was (perfectly good) milk, and she says she nearly puked because she was expecting water.

Being honest with ourselves, what fan base DOESN'T come up with lame excuses for losing to us? Iowa is obviously the biggest offender but rarely does anyone come out and say "Wow, ISU out played us today."

2015 would make a very bad spy.

Capturer: We are going to make you talk.
2015: I'll never talk.
Capturer: We have ways off making you talk!
2015: Never!
Capturer: We will put you in a boring Oklahoma small city. [laughs deviously ]
2015: Okay, okay, enough already I'll tell you everything!

I'm sure he would do just as well as Chunk:

By the way, the correct voice for kickball commentary from a few pages back would have to be Pepper Brooks.

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I typically have no problem admitting when we were outplayed. I might discuss how things could have been different had we done A, B, or AC differently, but I don't see that being an admission of not being outplayed.

Volleyball won today.

My little girls were all decked out in Cyclone gear today. Everywhere we went we were asked if they were going to the game tomorrow. Yeah, don't want to bring a 2yr old and 4yr old to that environment.
