    *** Official IOWA STATE VS Texas Game(Day) Thread ***

    First five minutes of the second half. Can't afford another deep hole.

    We are seeing Prohm evolution

    Reading comprehension. I didn't say one word about Hoiball. What I spoke of is the ability to learn from other highly successful coaches. It's not rocket science.

    Range of Celebrations - Still Something Left in the Tank

    At this point in the season, my opinion is that the really good teams are getting better and know who they are and what their identity is. At best, I would give ISU a C on both of those things. So I went into yesterday's game thinking that this was either the start of a Hawkeye late season...

    Potential players who will not be on the team by the end of spring ball

    Key word there is AFTER. Why???

    We are seeing Prohm evolution

    My opinion is that Prohm is learning, but he's also awful damned stubborn with what he thinks he already knows. But for me, I had no illusions when he got here. He coached at Murray State - not exactly the big time - and he had two NBA point guards. Of course he was successful. That said, he...

    How much is your Water bill?

    DSM - Water and waste bills combined. Was always around $50. $60 on month when I power washed my deck. Then they quit doing readings and estimated. $90 for three consecutive months and has slowly gravitated down to $70. I think I've got a big credit built up. I just need to call and complain.

    The guys could have easily folded. They didn't.

    Red Hot Chili Peppers

    By the way, the second opening act was "Shorty Trombone and Orleans". I'd never have imagined a trombone could make those kinds of sounds. Several times I'm looking at the two guys with saxophones and they were just dancing around and not playing. Then I realized it was Shorty going to town...

    Red Hot Chili Peppers

    I'm good with that. I may go again when they come to DSM (the DSM venue wasn't announced when I bought my tickets). But if I do, it won't be with the SO.

    Red Hot Chili Peppers

    If you'd enjoy a high energy, intense, hard rock performance you MUST go see RHCP. I went last night in Lincoln. First off, we were by far the oldest people in the crowd (late 50's). I was shocked. Most of those kids were not in the womb when I was listening to "Blood Sugar Sex Magik" - but...

    Friday OT #1 - Childhood Earworms

    ABC's Wide World of Sports intro... The thrill of victory, the agony of defeat. As we watch the skier tumble down the side of a mountain.

    Friday OT #1 - Childhood Earworms

    Not an earworm, but as a little kid I LOOOOOVED Popeye. And dammit I wanted spinach - in the can. My mother told me over and over I wouldn't like it. But one day she gave in and brought me home a can. For starters, I was very disappointed she used a can opener to open it. And when I saw...

    When your wife got pregnant

    The pregnancy itself was no fun. She is a little woman and the doc said she'd not have a baby bigger than six pounds. They were both eight pounds. But the thing I remember most was the delivery of my first - my son. Labor was brutal, and the doc finally used forceps. I held one arm and the...
