    ***Official 2023 Chicago Cubs Thread***

    Just my personal opinion but I sure hope we don't give Bellinger a 7 year deal unless the Cubs have some kind of clause or option to get of out it in the middle of that deal if he is injured or doesn't meet certain performance benchmarks. I'm sure the reason he hasn't signed a big deal already...

    Top Gun 2: Maverick

    Yikes, that trailer is so bad I don't even know if I want to try watching it when it comes out.

    ***Official 2023 Chicago Cubs Thread***

    May as well wait on Bellinger. If he doesn't have a better offer out there then there is no reason to cave to Boras just to sign him. If I'm Hoyer I tell Boras bring me the best offer another team gives you and we'll talk otherwise here's my best offer take it or leave it. I honestly feel...

    I don't understand how anyone has ever liked Tang

    What annoyed me was the pettiness he showed in the last minute when they were down 10 and game was obviously over but he just wanted us all to have to endure another 5-10 minutes of a game that wound up going over 2.5 hours long. Looking at the play by play: Fouled with 1:08 and ISU up 10...

    ISU star PG Tamin Lipsey remains questionable for Wednesday's home game vs. Kansas State

    Most competitive athletes will play through pain so if he doesn't play I would guess he has a legitimate injury.

    Yeah Busch along with Mervis and PCA you can't take a small sample size in the majors and say that's who they are. All you have to do is look at Rizzo as an example of that. Hoping with Counsell we see better management and usage of our prospects when they get their shot again in Chicago...

    NFL: Kansas City Chiefs Thread

    You definitely see a side of her and Patrick on Quarterback that the media usually doesn't show. She has her moments where she puts her foot in her mouth on social media but for the most part she handles herself pretty well. As for his brother Jackson though he's another story... He wasn't...

    Dad Sayings - Words of Wisdom

    I don't necessarily have any great sayings other than when you get the "that's not fair!" line when they don't like something usually my response is "well you will find out over time there are a lot of things in life that aren't fair." My main goals as a dad are to try and instill some simple...

    ***Official 2023 Chicago Cubs Thread***

    I'm surprised there hasn't been at least 1 bullpen signing by now and some of the better arms left out there are starting to come off the board so that's a little concerning. I don't get into Cubs Con that much but read something how they admitted they needed to address the bullpen because that...

    NFL: Kansas City Chiefs Thread

    I'm guilty of this talk. I'm still looking forward to hopefully 2 more games but at the same time also realize this team as we know it is going to look different next season too so doesn't hurt to speculate a bit either. This is by far the best defense they've had in the Mahomes era and...

    NFL: Kansas City Chiefs Thread

    Jones is a beast but payroll is already tight. Gotta think spreading that money around to be a more well-balanced defensive with some depth is more important than using it all on 1 elite player and then having to scrape the bargain bin to fill out the rest of the spots. I've pretty much...

    TCU Forfeiting tonight & Saturday in Hilton

    She was quite the personality off the court too. My floor and the floor her and some of the other WBB players were on were brother/sister floor one year. Most of the WBB players didn't care to participate when our floors did things together but Des would usually come out and socialize with us...

    TCU Forfeiting tonight & Saturday in Hilton

    I know the women's team has a scout team with some guys that they use to help simulate in practice what they might see against their next opponent. I knew one back when I was in school and for anyone who thinks that any guy could hold their own against a D1 women's player he had the bruises to...

    TCU Forfeiting tonight & Saturday in Hilton

    Crummy situation for TCU. I remember the ISU men's team was banged up one year that we didn't have enough to scrimmage at practice and added 2 walk ons from the football team in the spring. I can't remember what year it was, felt like was sometime during the McDermott era? The women's team...

    NFL: Kansas City Chiefs Thread

    Glad the Hardman fumble into the endzone didn't wind up costing them the game. When that happened I said it then that I hope that didn't come back to bite them as a TD on that drive puts them up 10. Lesson is to never underestimate Mahomes in the playoffs. Other than struggling to stop the...

    Sports Illustrated Done

    I found mine over the break while organizing my basement storage. I probably need to do the same with it and hang it somewhere in my ISU mancave. Still have a whole box or 2 to go through of college stuff from 98-02 where I saved various stuff from games or newspapers and such that I'm sure I...

    Top Gun 2: Maverick

    Supposedly a remake of Roadhouse is in the works too. Can't imagine it is going to do justice to the original move that was so good. It's sad that we're at the point Hollywood is struggling to put out good new/original movies so as a result we are getting remakes or spinoffs of other...

    RECRUITING: Iowa State earns commitment from Army WR transfer

    Army was 132nd last year in pass play percentage at 24.27% Last year they were even lower at 17.1% Compare that to ISU we were 39th at 51.37% and in 2022 was 57.04% Army has usually been a very run-heavy offense so he wasn't really in an offense where he saw a lot of targets. He literally...

    Too early for me to worry about seedings right now. Usually I don't even start to think about it until late February at the earliest as a lot can happen between now and then. Always fun to speculate I guess but we could go on a big run through the conference or have a bad stretch and to sit...
