    **** WBB: Gamethread - Cyclones host Troy at 12:00 p.m. ESPN+ ****

    I watched a little of the Cleveland State / EIU WBB game last night. EIU leading by 30+ with six minutes left in the 4th Quarter, Clark is still shooting threes and running back giving high fives to the courtside fans. I know I'm old fashioned in my thinking but that's just poor sportsmanship...

    WBB: 2023-24 Former Cyclones Now at Other Schools Tracker

    I caught the end of this one when the NFL game got boring. Montana trailed by one at Cal Poly and MEM hit the eventual game winner on a nice back door cut with around 20 seconds to go. She was then “coach on the court” as the last several possessions played out. She looks healthy and happy...

    ***2023 NCAA Volleyball Tournament Thread***

    Who do you pull for in this final? Both schools have betrayed the Big XII conference - IMO, Nebraska’s was unforgivable! If nothing else, we’ll get to watch phenomenal volleyball - I’ll probably decide once the match is underway but I’m leaning Texas.

    ***2023 GB Packers Thread***

    Aren't you a regular contributor in Marcelason's Viking thread? No trying to work reverse psychology in the Packer thread! :) My children are all Packer fans but my daughter married a nice young man from southern MN who wears the purple. Their union has produced a grandson (my first) and the...

    ***2023 GB Packers Thread***

    I have a share of the worthless 1990's era Packer stock framed on my office wall, so I'm a true-believer. I just won't get upset about this season because it was a throw-away before it ever started. We had the third-most dead cap money (Bucs & Rams have more) to start the season and the...

    WBB: General All-NCAA Thread - Not Team Cyclones Stuff

    As I'm aware of your vocation prior to retirement, I'll acknowledge your expertise in this area. Having said that, I have a serious question about women's pro basketball endorsements. Where does CC get more exposure, college or pro? Nobody watches the WNBA - it's hard to find WNBA games on...

    **** WBB: ISU vs North Dakota State - right now on EPSN+ ****

    I’ll respectfully disagree with your first two sentences and gladly acknowledge your third. I love our freshman class but I have tempered expectations for the conference and overall records. We lack veteran leadership and it’s apparent down the stretch of games versus quality opponents...

    **** WBB: ISU vs North Dakota State - right now on EPSN+ ****

    Simply put, not cool. If you can’t pass by without commenting, a “red X” disagree is sufficient. Ross’ comment contained no malice whatsoever and is 100% true - impractical but correct. Every time I see Soares on the bench I wish she were able to take the floor…

    Brown Appreciation Thread

    She’s well spoken and I love the way she lets the game come to her, never pressing but adept at recognizing what’s available. The only time she’s looked uncomfortable was when directed to run ISO down the stretch vs EIU - she’s likely capable but it doesn’t appear to be a natural part of her...

    Nova Southeastern is 4-3 on the season after a W on Saturday, but Madison Frederick is way off the pace from last year's First Team All-Conference showing and Morgan Kane isn't playing, though she's listed on the roster. https://nsusharks.com/sports/womens-basketball/stats/2023-24...

    This is like a stake to my heart, as Kylie was my favorite in the Fab Four Class of 2020. I bought the grandfather (and parents) story hook, line & sinker. She was like a young colt out there, bouncing around with energy, making mistakes and driving Fennelly nuts. At the same time, she looked...

    Crooks appreciation thread

    Sadly, my time at ISU predates Victor Alexander so I'm of an even older vintage. The starting center at ISU when I was a freshman was big-bodied Ron Falenschek from small-town Minnesota. Nice guy - he used to hang out at an old-time barber shop on Hyland Ave. I think he might live in...

    Twister Sister Summary - ladies battle, but fall to #4 Hawks

    Recollection of CC driving right last evening: People mentioned the horrible Hannah Stuelke "flop" which resulted in a bogus foul call on Audi, but there was also a Clark "flop" which was a proper non-call. She drove right and anticipated contact with Audi, throwing herself violently to the...

    Twister Sister Summary - ladies battle, but fall to #4 Hawks

    For those of us unable to attend in person, we did get to benefit from listening to Rebecca Lobo analyze post play on tv, particularly Audi’s. I actually enjoyed it, other than the running gag about “shooting over her middle shoulder”, which went on too long. Lobo was complimentary of Audi and...

    **** WBB: Game Thread - Cyclones host #4 Iowa Wednesday 6:00 pm ESPN2 ****

    The rate at which you "dumb" posts with even benign criticism, such as discussion of tonight's fourth quarter strategy, says otherwise. I'm willing to wager there's NOBODY in this thread tonight who doesn't want the ISU women to do well, so there's no need for you to be so confrontational...
