    Sweet Jack Trice Stadium Picture

    Yes, but I have seen the light and that light is attached to the front of a jointly owned diesel locomotive owned by OU/UT. It is much easier to be subservient. I am embrassing the inner pessimist that I have long tried to snuff out.

    Cool pic, but it could be God trying to send a message that ISU is blasphemous to the sport of football......

    Why do we like ISU football?

    This is getting off topic fast. But my original post was nothing more than a pessimistic rant in response to alot of the criticism optimists take around here. I think I will try the pessimist view for awhile, maybe it will help. As far as my favorite teams goes, I lived in LA when I was a kid...

    Why do we like ISU football?

    Most of those are foggy at best and are related to malted hopps. As far as actual educational memories, no. I really dont feel i got that great of an education and the day I graduated I remember pondering what it was that I actually learned above and beyond what i knew coming in as a...

    Why do we like ISU football?

    Yes, I graduated from ISU. To me it is nothing more than a piece of paper, no more no less. I am not an ISU fan just because i forked over a pile of money to get it. I certainly could have gotten the same education from university of pheonix, but alas they dont have a football team.

    Why do we like ISU football?

    After hanging around here for quite awhile, the pessimism has driven me into the ground. Is the Husker Athletic dept taking applications for new fans? I am thinking about changing fan paths and am currently updating my resume. I wont join the Hawks for personal reasons but am looking at other...

    Why do we like ISU football?

    I am just pointing out the fact they stated they are a fan because they graduated from ISU. That statement makes it seem that it goes no deeper than that. So, if you are only a fan because of that piece of paper why continue with the heartache?

    Why do we like ISU football?

    So, if you wouldnt have paid $40,000 for that piece of paper you wouldnt be a fan? Do you feel that if you become a fan of a successful program it was a waste of 40k? For 40k I can think of alot of other schools that you could have bought your fandome to, that would have treated you much better.

    Why do we like ISU football?

    If this is the case, why be a cyclone fan? Are we a bunch of masochinists (sp?). If you are only going to half *** it why not jump on a good bandwagon? I think I am going to attempt this new found version of ISU fandome. The half-asser, with no real clear cut goals. I certainly wouldnt want...

    Why do we like ISU football?

    So true. Maybe its the constant kicks to the scrotum that is driving the pessimism. But that begs the question, why come back? and if you come back why come back only to be a pessimist and expect mediocrity?

    Why do we like ISU football?

    Why do we as ISU fans love our Cyclones? Does it fill some sort of inferiority complex? Is there something missing from our lives that drives us to talk ISU football 365/7? What is it about the sport of football that we love? I really am unable to put my finger on it. Especially after reading...

    How long before we can expect to be competitive or win a game vs. UT or OU?

    The truth hurts, I guess thats why I try to convince myself that ISU should field a football team. Let alone try to think of ways they could beat the almighty UT/OU. If I believed in the truth I dont think I could be an ISU fan.

    CPR hasnt attacked anyone. Your were the one calling him a "Cyclown". One guy has a mildly optimistic view of the future and the rest of you have to beat him down because he doesnt think going o'fer in the Big12 is acceptable.

    How long before we can expect to be competitive or win a game vs. UT or OU?

    Ah the hell with it. We will never be good enough to compete with OU/UT. They will never ever be down agian and we will never field a team even worthy of holding their jock straps. In fact we should be paying Texas just to let us play them. Do these statements more align me with the majority...

    Dude, just ignore him. He is trying to hijack this thread.

    Look if you want to derail this thread and discuss Iowa vs ISU or Big10 vs Big12 then go to the right forum....like instate rivals. This thread was formed to discuss the probability of ISU gaining ground on teams like OU/UT. Go get your boner on for herky elsewhere. edit: Was that a successful...

    How long before we can expect to be competitive or win a game vs. UT or OU?

    I know this, man. (in my best Chris Tucker voice) What I am saying is the same thing that happened to NU can/will happen to UT/OU. I think we have a coach in CPR that will be able to take advantage of that situation when it arises. Brown isnt going to coach forever and Stoops is already getting...

    Lets see, what usually gets kicked...hmmmm...a-s-s-e-s. Thats 2 vowels and 3 consonant's. For a total of 5. I'm guessing you dont do well on Wheel of Fortune.

    How long before we can expect to be competitive or win a game vs. UT or OU?

    It all depends on your definition of "awhile" to me I have been waiting too long already. 2015 is still 5 seasons away which in CFB is an eternity. The only problem I see coming about is what happens if we dont win the MNC in 2015? My screename will look pretty toolish.

    Or have one of their up and coming teams (Minny) get picked off by lowley ISU in a bowl game. Its really not even debatable, go back to HN.
