Curious what everyone's favorite sandwich shop is where you live? I'm in the Des Moines metro, so it's mostly franchises. My favorites around here are Wich Which, B&B Grocery (The Killer), and Jersey Mike's for a good Philly.

I don’t think we have ever just done a thread before on what genres of music everyone listens to most?

I listen to mostly indie and rap/hip hop, with some rock thrown in. Quite a bit of punk and jazz. That is a pretty wide swath, I guess.

Thanks so much to @NWICY for this thread suggestion!

The premise is simple - tell us about your near death experiences! What happened, has anyone seen a white light. Who has been shot, and who has not.

Anyone start watching this? I’m two episodes in, and it’s okay, not as good as I was hoping for, but still decent.

It sure makes Brooks Koepka look bad IMO, which isn’t too surprising. After watching the 2nd episode, I can see why he joined the LIV Tour. I don’t think he was very confident he could compete in the PGA Tour anymore for championships.

Obviously just a hypothetical but:

- TJ head coach (defense oriented)
- Fran asst coach (offense oriented)

Fran can coach offense like a sonofabitch. TJ can coach defense like a sonofabitch. Fran can yell at the refs to keep them honest. TJ can recruit athletes beyond Fran’s wildest dreams.

Would it work?

How do we keep getting screwed and end up on LHN?

How can those of us that don’t have that network still watch the game?

Since he hasn’t played hardly at all does that mean a red shirt year for him so he can still have 4 years left?

My daughter is going to ISU in the fall. We don't want her to room with a high school friend. What is the best way to find a good roommate match?

Really unfortunate and sad.

Monday is President's Day. Is that a problem for anyone starting then?

Announcers call a reversal by O'Toole a takedown.

I went to work for this company about a little over 14 years. I left there five years ago. Back to how I went to work for this company.... I was asked by an employee of the company to apply for newly created sales position. I was a client of the company and knew the employee for few years prior to me going to work for them. We became friends and started going to events, football games, night out with the wives, etc. I even got to know his parents and his siblings well enough to get invited to their kid's weddings and such. I recently found out from another person that worked for the same company that my supposed friend told others that I was his little beotch at which he laughed when he said it.

This really pissed me off! To the point that I have deleted his phone# off my cell phone and deleted/block him from other social media accounts. Clients of this guy have told me that he is your typical "used car salesman" type of mentality. I guess, was it the right thing for me to do this in regards to deleting his number as I really want nothing to do with him anymore? If I seem him at a bar, or out somewhere, I will not converse with him. If I do say anything it will that I'm no longer your little beotch and leave. Really hurt to think he would say something like that. I'm more pissed off about it than hurt.

If David Carr wins at 165. He should win the Hodge hands down. Toughest weight and 3 National Champs at that weight. 197 is tough also. Spencer Lee has the weakest weight and has only wrestled 1/2 the year. GO DAVID!!!!

Section 134 mid-high row on the aisle. Pair for $250, including C-3 parking pass.

SOLD

Looking for 4 tickets together for OU.

Even when he isn't dropping 22 points, he's still doing the little things that don't show on the stat sheet. Someone can fact check this, but I believe the analytics love the Slovenian Sniper.

It sucks he got hurt earlier in the year, but hopefully that just means he'll have fresher legs for March.

Guessing we will be seeded at each weight aside from 125 and 141.

If I’m a highly seeded guy and get a first round match I’d probably be disappointed to see Cabanaban or Swiderski.

Both of those guys are capable of stealing bids.

For sale, two upper balcony tix for men’s game vs. Oklahoma, Feb. 25, sec 216, row 9 plus D-3 parking. $100

This is a story from Cody Goodwin of the Des Moines Register, but the link is on USAToday website, so no subscription is needed.

Basically, she's the only girl out for wrestling at her school (Sigourney-Keota) and they have no program sharing deal with another district. Rather than be a girls team of one, she joined the boys team and qualified for state. Has a chance today to seal up a place on the podium. Because of a number of jr. high girls coming into high school next year, they will probably start their girls program next winter, so this is, most likely, her last time wrestling with the boys.

Seems like a very driven individual with sites set on a college wrestling career - thought it was an interesting story and wanted to share here.

We can stop trying to improve it

Obviously we all saw the attendance stunk tonight for the students. If we’re being honest with ourselves, the balcony of the student section is at least 75% empty for every game minus about 2-3 a year.

Why not have more of like a general admission? Make students claim their ticket online a week before maybe and then sell the rest that’s unclaimed to the general public? This would help keep the balcony of the student section full every game and allow people to go to games at cheaper prices. Any other ideas?
