    Where are they now? Coaching staffs of the past 20 years

    If I remember correctly, which isn’t saying much, it was an ugly situation. The LE firing was handled poorly, to say the least. I’ve never been a BVD fan by any means and I think the job, at that time, wasn’t attractive. Morgan applied and seemed a safe higher that would clean up the image of...

    Worst Movies Ever

    Valerian and the whatever I don’t care those two “actors “ couldn’t act into a paper bag much less out of it. I struggled with hs chemistry and they had f’n none. Great ideas but executed worse than the Iowa offense. holy sh$$ was that a bad movie.

    Looking for a New Mattress

    Any still looking around in the Des Moines area, Urbandale High Performing Arts is hosting a mattress sale on the 28th. As a fund raiser, a percentage of the sales goes to UHS. It’s basically a pop-up!

    WTB: IA Game Ticket Advice?

    Great, thanks! I'll keep my eyes open. I knew paper tix were a thing of the past. Odds of him being able to find something at the tailgates from someone or a "ticket reseller"?

    WTB: IA Game Ticket Advice?

    Hello CYCLONES! I'm looking for some advice or guidance. My oldest graduated from high school this past May. He's taking a gap year and has several friends that are new Cyclones. They were able to get student season tickets. He's going up for the Big Game on Friday to tailgate and hopefully...

    Friday OT - Bucket List

    I finally got to see Rush more than once on a tour. I'd seen every tour since the late 80s once, usually in Kansas City, one time in Omaha. I had purchased tickets for the R40 tour stop in Kansas City. Mrs. Joe4Cy surprised me on my birthday with 3 tickets(!) for myself and my brothers at the...

    Friday OT #2 - It Was the Worst of Times

    Big Fish. Both the movie and the musical are far superior to the book itself.

    Losing my job mid July…advice?

    Oh, thanks, I appreciate that. In fact, although not full-on long-term, I do sub almost every day. In the mornings, I've been teaching at Drake two days a week. I have such a strong reputation, I could easily sub daily. At this point, however, it's not paying the bills. With a son graduating in...

    Losing my job mid July…advice?

    I, too, am in the hunt. After slowly growing my own business, it's not growing as quickly as needed. I interviewed for a teaching position recently and crushed the interview. Did not get the offer I expected. I'm too expensive a hire for school districts anymore. Thanks for this thread. Some...

    Friday OT #1 - Summer Days Drifting Away

    Ugh - I have two people in my house that suffer with massive pollen allergies and are crushed instantly. I haven't been able to have the windows down in 20 years. Sigh. I'll live vicariously through you!
