    Campustown Redevelopment

    WTF IS THAT ABOMINATION?!?! That's one of the ugliest buildings I've ever seen! Bastardized podium, ugly proportions, horrible windows. Good lord the architect in me is dying just looking at it...

    Does the legacy of the "mayor" change after this?

    For me, it absolutely changes. I don't blame him for going to the pro's, don't I don't think he owed it to us to stay. I also don't blame fans for being upset, and don't think we owe him a thing either. I'm not one of those "We were so fortunate to have Freddy while he was here" people. It was...

    Iphone App

    Anyone else have issues with the iphone app "going to sleep" while you listen to radio? The cyclone radio App doesn't run when the App isn't open. As a result when I listen to games I have to keep toucing the screen to keep it awake, otherwise my phone goes to the swipe screen and the game goes...

    *****The Super, Mega, Huge Big 12 Expansion Thread*****

    I'd be considering a North Carolina school. State and Chapel hill both beeping a ton of TV sets, and good academics.

    Most Prized ISU Possesion?

    When I was a junior in HS my parents moved us to North Carolina. I was school shopping in a TJ Maxx in Raleigh, and I found a bad*** Iowa State Jersey for $20.00! LOVE it. Never seen anything like it....it's legit heavy duty, cardinal with blue shoulders. Maybe a hockey jersey?

    Electric Razor

    I have thick dark hair and a sensitive face. Grew up using Mach 3's, but my hair clogged them do fast id end up citing myself to bits. Got a Norelco as a gift....HATED it and went back to Mach 3's for years. I eventually tried a Braun Series 7 and I will NEVER go back. It cuts as close and...

    Kenny Wayne Sheperd at Val Air

    I'm crazy jealous. Waited for along time for him to tour near us, he was in Okoboji (I was moving at the time) a few months ago, and now he's going to the Val Air (I'm moved now). And y'all get to see him live. I'd be first in line if I was there. My friends in Chicago say he puts on a HELL of...

    Bama fan says THANK YOU!!

    Being a college football fan, and being glad that Bama is in the title game are mutually exclusive positions to human beings with a fully functional brain.

    ***Official I'm not watching the BCS Title Game Thread***

    I honestly won't. I love football, but that doesn't mean I have to accept the ******** they try to shove down our throats. The shaft that OKSU and KSU got is an abomination of the system. Why bother tuning in for a game just because some talking heads say they're the best 2 teams? It's a crock...

    ISU football coaching tree

    I recently relocated to Portland, and was talking football with a Ducks and OK fan. I wanted to bring up ISU's coaching tree history, but can't find any referencing articles. Does anyone have a link to past National Championship winning coaches who coached at ISU? Thanks!

    Netflix

    The net Battle Star Galactics became one of my all time favorite shows from Netflix. Interesting look at the human race. (and I'm not a big Sci Fi fan) Firefly was good, some of the episodes annoyed me, but I found myself liking it more as time went on. Great cast. Dexter is great, but they...

    *****The Super, Mega, Huge Big 12 Expansion Thread*****

    yeah...let's add another Texas team that will bail the next time Texas gets all poo poo lipped and tries to take their ball and go home. God I hate this...can't everybody just shut the hell up, cash their checks, and work together to bring in some solid universities that will DIVERSIFY our...

    Lowering the boom

    I've seen his twitter, and choose not to follow it. Like I said, he's a fan and is entitled. He's refrained from trotting around our board with the stuff he posts on twitter. For the most part, he's Ben pretty pro on our board.....which is more than I can say for a lot of the responses he's...
