44 Days.. better start planning.

Great weather and a nice win will make tailgating after the game even more enjoyable as well.

New for me this year is a tailgater, so I'm looking forward to hanging out in the lots after the game and watching some games!

The offseason is winding down and personally, I have been starving for more Big 12 football/ISU predictions. No offense to the CF guys talking NBA but come on! If you see any analysis/vids/podcasts online..maybe drop them here?

Here are a few I found. Some of these are smaller youtubers but I found their takes entertaining.

Looking for 3 tickets for a friend that wants to take his two boys for the first time.

Hadn't seen anything posted about it yet, mods can remove if this is a duplicate.

Listened to podcast "CF Chronicles: Larry's last days" today, put together by Jared Stansbury. Man that was a trip down memory lane.

Can you imagine if something like this had happened in today's day and age? I think the internet would explode.

Should the Big 12 add UConn as a football only member?

Had fun writing this one. Football!!!!!

I would like to direct your attention to the "snatch" and the "jerk" in this submission...

This is followed by asking if I want to recover the connection? The problem is so bad I can't watch videos or write a message without losing the connection. Please tell me how to reduce this problem?

He's at it again. Just can't stop himself from trying to get everybody riled up. Just can't let it drop.

Always pushing the narrative of getting Matt Campbell to the NFL. Why, Randy? Can't you come up with something original?

Interesting article. I'd say it's a good thing that they feel a sense of embarrassment.

I'm an X'r so had way different dynamics to deal with.

Seems like the thinking is more short term, but suppose in our youth we all tended to be more that way.

I try to teach my kids to make good decisions and think ahead. I teach them accumulating debt is not a good thing as it can limit your options. There are other choices out there..Community College's are cheaper, the trades are great fields to get into with very little if any debt accumulation, joining the military can get your education paid for. Too many people are not going those routes and end up like people this article is about.

As previously covered in the heads up post yesterday, this week's OTN is a continuation of the Decades series started last week by @cyclones500. Also a regular posting member of the staff of OTN is @CycloneRulzzz.

So pick your favorite LP's released in 1979 and give us your reasons or history with the album and post away!

(Last Week's thread can be found here: https://cyclonefanatic.com/forum/threads/on-that-note-to-the-9’s-part-1-1969-and-’59.248795/

My first Offering:

Armed Forces - Elvis Costello and the Attractions

Probably not his best album. Thematically it just doesn't hold together for me. That said, an average EC album is still pretty great in this period.

Best Cut is probably - Party Girl. Great Lyrics!

Keep an eye on the name Tyon Grant-Foster, a 6-foot-7 wing out of Indian Hills.

I had forgot that Courtney was on Klieman's previous staff and followed him to Manhattan.

Good things to say about his time at ISU.

Releasing a bunch of new shirts for this fall football season. Highlighted by our 2019 Prove It Tour shirts and our Black polos with a white I-State logo on them, something we know Fanatics have been asking for forever. Purchases at the store directly support Cyclone Fanatic and help send CW on vacation during recruiting weekends.

Very positive about the clones!

Looks like they are going to an online plan like what Warren Buffett did with the Omaha World-Herald.

Why you'll see some content marked 'for subscribers,' and why you should become one of them

5 digital benefits of a Des Moines Register subscription
https://www.desmoinesregister.com/s...register-digital-only-subscription/813681001/

The introductory rate is 99 cents a month for the first three months. If you are a print subscriber, however, you have full access without any additional fee, I believe.

I bet they can get a lot of national news types who cover the caucuses.

The only article I saw today where you had to be a subscriber to access was “The 41 Restaurants Des Moines Diners Miss the Most.”

If they are able to do what the World-Herald has done, which charges $9.99 a month, I believe (and I don’t see a lot of special deals) that would be a big accomplishment. If they want to step up their game in the sports department, they would probably need more articles like this:

Meet Dudley Blackwell, one of Iowa State's biggest recruiting priorities
https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/sports/college/iowa-state/bbmen-recruiting/2019/07

Peterson: Meet JaQuan Bailey; Iowa State’s best-ever defensive end is all grown up now
https://www.desmoinesregister.com/s...iley-isus-best-ever-defensive-end/1742085001/

Recruiting related articles in the Omaha World-Herald seem almost always premium.

It doesn’t seem like many on this site read the Des Moines Register, and I have pretty good access to news independently, so I doubt that I would subscribe.

There seem to be a huge number of Cyclone related articles, however, right now on their website, so I would encourage everyone to check them out. It seems intended to lure you in but many seem pretty good. You can do things like incognito mode, clear history, or use a different browser if you reach the article limit. None of the articles that I saw are yet part of their new subscription plan.

I’m not sure how many have already been linked on this site, and I guess many are media days related. But quite a few seem to have been posted in just the last 24 hours or so.

He waltzed to victory in the finals at Fargo. I know he will be just a junior this year, but what is the buzz about his school of choice? He would be a great addition to the team.
