I'm looking for suggestions for a projector for my bedroom. Looking for something inexpensive that works well. It would sit on a shelf about 11 ft from the wall I'd project on.

Its kinda overwhelming all the different options.

Randy Peterson reporting Alex Golesh leaving ISU to be the OC at UCF. Tough loss for us. But you can never blame someone for taking a big promotion in college football.

Tonight at 9:30 CT/CBS Sports Network.

Anyone had a chance to see this team play? Just reading stats based on their incredibly easy schedule doesn’t tell much.

Anybody playing Empires and Puzzles? Is there a Cyclone alliance out there?

Longtime Century Link guy but am frustrated as hell about the lack of speed options where I live. I currently have 20. They can get me upgraded to 30 but is ridiculous in 2020.

I have heard nothing but horror stories about Mediacom internet. I work from home so reliability is critical. Do you guys recommend it? Any luck, good or bad?

Mysterious drones have been flying over Colorado and Nebraska in recent weeks and authorities can't figure out who's behind the aircraft.

Deputies have spotted more than 16 unmanned drones flying in northeast Colorado after authorities received multiple reports of drone sightings last month, the sheriff's offices in Colorado's Yuma and Phillips counties said.

Mapping terrain? Military exercise? Searching for lost warhead?

The video I can't get rid of is not relevant to the article I am trying to read.....

I realize this is from a couple years ago, but i never saw it. Comedy Centrals "This is Not Happening"
from her time at ISU. NSFW. Not the funniest, but i find her tie in with ISU funny.

Baylor QB Brewer left the Sugar Bowl after a nasty hit on sideline. Head bounced off turf. Had to get carted off to locker room. How many head injuries before he’s done? If he were in my family it would have to be a serious conversation. Too much life to live after football. Some things in life are more important.

Taylor eclipses 2,000 yds multiple seasons matching Troy as only too do that.

But of course TD did that in 11 games each season while Taylor did in 13 and 14 games

Saw K State got commit from qb Jake Rubley (0.94 on 247) for 2021. Was hoping they would be bad for awhile post Snyder, but doesnt look like that's happening.

Big 12 has some great young qb talent w more on way ...this kid, Duggan, Dekkers/Bouman, Rattler, etc. Looks like all but a couple teams have a qb there or committed that is a 0.90 or higher.

Georgia remains favored by a field goal in tonight's Sugar Bowl matchup with Baylor, in spite of suiting up 15 fewer players than in their final regular season game, including 6 starters. It will be the Big XII's 6th and final bowl game of an unglamorous 2019/2020 bowl season. The good news for Baylor is that Charlie Brewer will be in the line-up ... so we're sayin' there's a chance!

• Baylor QB Charlie Brewer will play in Sugar Bowl vs Georgia

Georgia seeks redemption after last year's Sugar Bowl whoopin' vs the Texas Longhorns, as was foreshadowed by the undercard: Uga vs Bevo:

Baylor's record last 3 seasons:
2017: 1-11
2018: 7-6
2019: 11-3 or 12-2

Iowa State's record last 3 seasons:
2017: 8-5
2018: 8-5
2019: 7-6

What was it that allowed Baylor to take the steps that ISU couldn't, but was expected to by many pundits before the year started? One aspect that makes me salty about this is, Baylor copied Heacock's defense, but did it better.

Just curious about others thoughts on the subject. It might of been discussed in other threads.

Was it?

I have started seriously considering retiring in a country where my dollars go much further and where healthcare is excellent and not out of control cost-wise.

Running some numbers through a retirement calculator shows that I might be able to retire much earlier overseas as well. I am only 47, but may be able to retire at 60 in Panama, which is our choice as of now.

Anyone have any experience, thoughts, or advice on this? Here is an article that shows some of the pros:

Headed skiing in a couple weeks and have a few set of skis I’d like to get edged and waxed. Anyone know of any place in central Iowa to have that done. Would rather get it done before we leave instead of trying to get it done while in CO.

Other option would be to just finally learn to do it myself.

Lots of debate happening these days. It always helps to have a common set of facts to work off of, so with that in mind ...

It has been 25 full seasons since Johnny Orr exited the stage. Since then, no ISU coach has stayed longer than five seasons for various reasons. I had some extra time today and decided to sum up the total losses at Hilton per coach, etc.


GAMES LOST AT HILTON PER SEASON

Tim Floyd (4 seasons) = 3.75 losses per season (3, 3, 3, 6)

Larry Eustachy (5 seasons) = 2.8 losses per season (3, 0, 0, 6, 5)

Wayne Morgan (3 seasons) = 3.33 losses per season (1, 3, 6)

Greg McDermott (4 seasons) = 6 losses per season (5, 6, 6, 7)

Fred Hoiberg (5 seasons) = 2.2 losses per season (6, 2, 1, 1, 1)

Steve Prohm (4 full seasons so far) = 4 losses per season (2, 3, 7, 4)


If Prohm wins the rest of his home games this season, his average will be 3.6 losses per season. If he has another season similar to two years ago with 7 losses, his average will be 4.6 losses per season after five full years.

Perhaps someone else can do something similar with average finish in conference and average results in the NCAA? (BTW--I don't put much stock in Big 12 Tournament Titles. Fun but nearly meaningless, IMO.)

Section 238. 2 seats together. $75 total for both. PayPal and electronic transfer.

Really the only thing I can think of is bragging rights and internet supremacy over other ISU fans, but there has to be something else?
