    Info: For those who believe in a higher power

    My wife and I became grandparents of twin girls Thursday evening. We cannot imagine the magnitude of your loss. But, please be comforted by the fact that you shall all meet again some day in a much better place. As we say in Eastern Orthodox Church, "May their memory be eternal".

    Commenting on Chris's message today

    First of all, if you want people to give any serious thought to your opinion, you must use proper English. Instead of "would of", "should of", and "might of", the correct English/grammar is "would have", "should have", and "might have". Secondly, no one knows for sure how ANY coaching hire...

    Pollard interview on Marty's show

    The two most intriguing comments by JP were the handling of WJ and Craig Brackins. JP said that McDermott wanted WJ to be a leader and he rode him hard. But the injury mis-diagnosis by the doctors turned out to be a disaster and WJ decided to bolt. On the opposite extreme, McDermott was soft...

    Who is Gary Thompson and how does he impact Cyclone MBB?

    Re: One Tough B-Ball Player This really intrigues me. I also played pick-up games at the State Gym with Gary and many others back in the late 1970's through the early 1980s (moved from Ames to the Des Moines area in the early 1980s). Back then, guys like Ev Cochrane and Randy Larson were in...

    Paul Shirley Tweet

    Mr. Shirley has been firmly entrenched on my **** list the past couple years. The dude has been an embarrassment.

    This weekend's weather...

    Ya, Charlie Notis doesn't beat around the bush does he?:smile: I heard that he was providing incredible winter storm forecasts on Cyclonereport, but they are missing out on him now since he never posts there anymore.

    This weekend's weather...

    "No Freese is not with any local TV station. He is the Freese in Freese-Notis weather and has been right on this year and seems to be way ahead of the locals. To stick up for them though, Freese did say that the same basic info in his early morning update that the locals are saying but said the...

    Favorite DSM Car Wash?

    To me it is a no brainer. Mr. Car does a wonderful job. The best thing about it is that if you sign a contract, for about $34 per month, you get unlimited washes, vacuuming, and interior detailing. I bring it in on an average of about 2-3 times per week (depending on the weather of course) in...

    At least there was nothing "lucky" and freaky about those super bowl wins. :yes:

    Blythe/N.O. Saints Game on ESPN Tonight

    Hobbs just very recently came off the PUP (physically unable to perform) list after off season shoulder surgery and also a pulled groin. He has been practicing with the team for only about a week. The Pats still expect him to be one of the starters this season. He was very injured during the...

    MLB: Manny to LA Dodgers

    I'd say that it is also working out just great for the Red Sox as well. It is now the "Bay" State.

    MLB: Manny to LA Dodgers

    As a huge Red Sox fan, I have been a Manny apologist for years. However, after his horrible display off and on the field the past few weeks, the Red Sox absolutely HAD TO GET RID HIM. He has been a cancer on the team. The front office met with the players on Wednesday night and they also said...

    Science: Not much warming under the sun

    This thread, started by Pthebutcher, has caused me to register to this site once again. He and I may not see eye to eye on short range weather forecasts once in a blue moon, but we are in absolute total agreement on this subject. Pthebutcher may guess who I am from the other Cyclone message...

    Bad News for Protestants

    One other thing that I alluded to above. There were 5 bishops prior to the Schism. The Bishop of Rome, Constantinople, Alexandria, Jerusalem, and Antioch. Thus, 4 of the bishops split from the bishop of Rome.

    Bad News for Protestants

    That is exactly right. There was no such a term as Catholicism prior to the Schism. So how can the Catholic Church claim that the East split from the Catholic Church. It was a hard but simple split period into Eastern and Western Church. There were several good reasons for the Schism. A couple...

    Bad News for Protestants

    Excuse me but you are wrong here. All Christian denominations did not originate from the Catholic Church. Are you trying to tell me that the Eastern Orthodox (Greek, Russian, etc.) Church originated from the Catholic Church? No way Jose! Do you recall the Great Schism (1066 AD I believe) when...

    Sad day...pet advice needed...

    I feel really bad for you. Our cat was having liver failure about 4 years ago. We took him to a holistic vet and he told us that the reason for the liver failure was due to all the vaccinations that he had the first 9 years of his life. It was damaging the liver. I wonder if your cat is having...

    sad

    MAJOR reason is..... There is no doubt about it in my mind. The major reason why we did not have a sellout for this game is due to the fact that it was a Thursday night game. I was there, but a lot of us that had to be at work early on Friday were hurtin' puppies for a couple days. And, as...
