    Little Tweet From Our Friends at the Camping World Bowl

    Wait...you just blew a golden opportunity to show your superiority...

    I realize not directed at me, but do you ever worry about Campbell being blown out by Iowa...at HOME?

    Recent CyHawk Series Performance

    Let's be honest, football and men's BB are really all that the majority care about. I'm not saying that is right or wrong...just talking reality. It doesn't make the story any better...just sayin'.... Caveat - while we need Campbell to break the losing streak (and he will) , he is not...

    SOTU CF

    Rule #1 to create an effective poll - you need to have a "neutral" or "unsure" option. Life is not this black and white .

    Weinstein getting a pass?

    Don’t be so naïve…he’ll commit suicide before that can happen…. ;)

    Weinstein getting a pass?

    Who on this thread is agreeing that "it is all good if you have the money"? I think your point is murky.

    Weinstein getting a pass?

    The victims can't be forced to accept the settlement, so I guess I don't get what the big deal is?

    Camping World Bowl: Game Info Only Thread

    I think that has a lot to do with what is more important to you. If it is simply to tailgate for the sake of tailgate, nothing else, than your hotel . If you instead want to be around the atmosphere of the game....other fans....and the trip to the game in your review mirror, then I'd pay...

    All Things Notre Dame

    This ND Youtuber is actually pretty good. Previous video was talking reaction to Camping World Bowl. He is pretty level headed and said ISU is better than record. He'll be previewing the game in an upcoming video. This one below he is calling out ND fans that are melting down. Pretty good.

    City Council Approves 40-Acre Entertainment District

    It would have to be a new model. It is a false choice to suggest they must eventually open in smaller markets otherwise if they don't the results is "no returns". The landscape is litter with examples of both business that hold firm to their biz model and thrive as well as those that...

    City Council Approves 40-Acre Entertainment District

    Wouldn't it make more sense to have that particular discussion on the thread related to that project (rather than this one)? I wouldn't be surprised if that topic has already been batted around within that thread....in fact if memory serves, it has.

    City Council Approves 40-Acre Entertainment District

    Econ 101 - the law of diminishing returns. On a much smaller scale, it is the reason you don't see Quik Trips or Qwik Trip(Stars) in small towns or away from major highway/access points. It doesn't fit their biz models as to be the most efficient and profitable, they need a certain volume of...

    Camping World Bowl: Game Info Only Thread

    I've tried that, but the timing is always so far off so IMO this doesn't really work well. (besides, I find it interesting to hear what a national audience is hearing about Iowa State from the TV crew)

    City Council Approves 40-Acre Entertainment District

    I'll double-down on my assertion that there is almost zero chance IKEA will be locating here. Our metro's size is smaller than their business plan suggests....and now they are focusing on more urban areas. https://www.newsobserver.com/news/local/article211750844.html

    ISU +3.5 vs ND

    Curious - how would it be different in your mind if he provided this information straight - i.e...non-coach speak? This seems like a pretty straightforward answer to me. Am I just being naive?

    Lazard on Jim Rome today

    As a Viking's fan, the situation with Montgomery and Lazard is making it even more difficult. You only have to deal with it for one rival team...

    New restaurant planned for Olde Main

    Jethro's isn't a franchise though. It is a locally own restaurant with multiple locations. There is no vacuum of local money flowing out of central Iowa economy out to some out of state corporate headquarters.
