    In memoriam of Brian Ferentz as Iowa's OC

    I don't know, but assumed it was some kind of efficiency "metric" that Kirk just made up. Something like Success Rate or Expected Points Added, but dumber/not quantifiable.

    Modest Proposal for Hilton Lighting

    I think part of it is broadcasting things in 5.1 surround. If you just have the built-in TV speakers, or don't have your surround turned on, I'm guessing it plays the center channel only which should focus primarily on the commentators.

    To be fair, those numbers would be a massive improvement over the last two seasons.

    In memoriam of Brian Ferentz as Iowa's OC

    Guys, I know. It was sarcasm. Kirk told the media all year "well we won 10 games last year this way," and he bitched about the invalid fair catch signal for a solid month after that game. So you already know what's coming if people dare to question his hire this year.

    In memoriam of Brian Ferentz as Iowa's OC

    Do people not remember that Iowa won 10 games last year? Would have won 11 if not for the most egregious officiating error in all of sports history?

    I don't understand how anyone has ever liked Tang

    My mom took this photo during the second half, saying this KSU Asst was watching our huddle during a timeout, taking notes on a whiteboard, and then went back to the KSU sideline. No clock or score to know exactly when it happened, but appears to be during some promotional fan shot thing.

    I will effing take it

    TCU shot 50% from the field, but with all the turnovers they only took 46 shots compared to ISU's 62. When they stopped turning it over, they climbed back into it. We also had three extended periods in the second half without a bucket.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    It's called torque steer and is more pronounced in FWD vehicles. It also gets worse as engine torque increases.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    I can't say for Teslas since so much of their stuff is developed internally, but most EVs have a high voltage system for driving and an old school 12V lead acid battery for the accessories. The 12V battery runs the pumps, heaters, fans, radio etc while the HVB is "off." The HVB can charge the...

    Washington hires Jedd Fisch

    Well, there's only two N/S interstates between the sound and the mountains, and they go on either side of a couple big lakes that make it hard to go E/W. The geography forces everyone through a narrow corridor. And yeah it's still awful.

    Rocco's NIL value

    Let's be honest though, it's not poor families putting their kids into camps all over the country, hiring trainers and coaching gurus, etc. And even for those families who are well-off enough to do that for their kid(s), there will be a not-insignificant proportion who will view NIL as the...

    Help! I'm Fat - *** Official Exercise and Weight Thread ***

    Isometrics are also really good since you are putting 100% force against a stationary object. The only downside is the range of motion is small. But it can be great for addressing sticking points.

    Help! I'm Fat - *** Official Exercise and Weight Thread ***

    If you don't have enough weight to challenge you in the rep ranges you want to do, try slowing down. Muscle growth depends on "time under tension." Which means you have to keep straining long enough for force the adaptation. Do 2+ seconds on the concentric (lifting) phase, flex hard at the top...

    Help! I'm Fat - *** Official Exercise and Weight Thread ***

    That's why you need to increase the intensity over time to keep getting training effect. As Gary Lemond said, "Training doesn't get easier, you just go faster." That being said, if your goal is just to maintain current performance then it takes a surprisingly little amount of exercise. There is...
