    Wow this has been a special year - and it's not over yet!

    It cannot be understated that Iowa State basketball changed for the good the day Fred Hoiberg was born. A top tier coach was born a Cyclone. Tell me right now that if the Kansas, Kentucky or UNC jobs came open that they wouldn't take Fred. It's amazing.

    Best line he had was "would you rather have Niang for 4 years or Nerlens Noel for one."

    The next time you start complaining about how many stars a recruit has...

    I might be wrong but a 5 star kid is more ready at his position to be an impact player at college coming out of high school. It doesn't mean much 3 or 4 years later in most cases as guys develop. Most NFL teams are full of guys that work their ***** off to make and stay on a roster. That...

    First Concert?

    I'll respond because most of you won't even know the band and I implore young fanatics to look them up - Bay City Rollers as a kid in the 70's. Best concert ever was Green Day at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, 311 opened.

    NBA: Royce White worst first round pick ever?

    In terms of the money actually spent White doesn't even come close as worst ever. In terms of making a mockery of his situation with the Rockets probably pretty close. Welcome to the NBA. The Rockets got zero results for x million. I'd argue there have been far bigger disasters in terms of...

    Iowa State Haunted Campus

    Don't believe in this stuff but I worked at That Place downtown in the late 80's. I saw some stuff that gave me pause. To say the least.

    New proposed Ames convention center...

    The Iowa Games could positively use it for athletes. I sat at Hunziker fields for hours last summer in sweltering heat waiting for one of my kids to play soccer - vowing never to return. What if there was a place to go??? It should be noted that part of that time was spent at the joke that is...

    New proposed Ames convention center...

    I googled Iowa Agriculture conferences and there were about 5 different ones on the first page. Those could all potentially come to Ames. USDA could use it. University sponsored engineering type stuff. There are a myriad of ways to positively build and use a convention center in a city with a...

    New proposed Ames convention center...

    I don't disagree but my feeling is this would be a healthy start to get some stuff going.

    New proposed Ames convention center...

    Ames is not 25k and there is plenty of ag business that could draw regional conventions. Look don't build and Ames stays the same. Build it and other things follow along with increased dollars spent locally. It's pretty easy really.

    What kind of Spider is this

    Saw a 2 foot tall wolf spider in my basement when we first moved in. Preferred Pest Control has been coming since. I haven't seen a crawling bug in my house in 7 years. Also, I think the Preferred Pest guy is an ISU alum. Might be wrong on that.

    JAMIE POLLARD STATEMENT ON REINSTATEMENT DECISION

    Sounds so much like Fred. If I were Fred I'd be extremely conflicted about this.

    JAMIE POLLARD STATEMENT ON REINSTATEMENT DECISION

    Poor choice of words. I think he compromised his status to represent Iowa State on the court. And I don't believe he's somehow been railroaded to the point that legal action was in his or Iowa State's best interest for him to be able to play basketball. I think it's a distraction and I wish him...

    JAMIE POLLARD STATEMENT ON REINSTATEMENT DECISION

    I tend to disagree with all the sentiment that JP somehow is putting Fred in a tough spot. The bottom line is that Bubu created this mess. Whether he's guilty of nothing, he is guilty of compromising his status with the basketball team. That is not a right that he should have taken lightly. The...

    Kane's Ankle

    Freedom of speech is the political right to communicate one's opinions and ideas using one's body and property to anyone who is willing to receive them. The term freedom of expression is sometimes used synonymously, but includes any act of seeking, receiving and imparting information or...

    Jay Cutler re signs with Chicago Bears

    He'll see 54 of that. The Bears better draft some god damned defensive backs. The offense is fine. Cutler may be hard to look at but he still gives them the best chance to utilize the offensive weapons they've amassed. McCown did a fine job proving Trestman knows what he's doing on offense. But...
