    ISU Gambling Megathread

    “Everyone else is doing it, how come we’re the ones in trouble?!?” Seems to be a common theme here, at least.

    ISU Gambling Megathread

    The two things my kids are most sick of hearing me say: “life is not fair,” and, “actions have consequences.” This is a case study in both.

    NIL and Gambling

    Ah yes, the noted Q-nuts at Deadspin circa 2014. Hard to believe that a year earlier they tried to convince us all that Manti Te’o didn’t really have a dead girlfriend. I do believe Stevie Wonder is blind, but 1) the article is hysterical, and 2) let’s be a little more thorough with our source...

    In fairness, there was not much else to do in Shreveport.

    He’s not reacting IMO, he’s anticipating where the ball will go and gets to the spot before other players have the chance to react. Great rebounders have an uncanny ability to do this. Watson seems to be the same way.

    FYI - Screen shots will no longer work for ticket entry at games

    Not a huge secondary market for airline tickets.

    Summer Bahamas Trip

    No no no no. NBA players get 1 foul for every 8 minutes of game time. So do college players. The LAST thing we need is to give teams/coaches incentive to foul MORE. Can you imagine a Huggins team with extra fouls? https://tenor.com/vXqc.gif

    Congratulations to the following city of Ames employees

    It makes no difference. They very carefully trenched and excavated for a big project near us, then a worker cut the EXPOSED fiber line. Sometimes things just go wrong, and other times… you can’t fix stupid.

    Official Utah Utes Welcome Thread

    I don’t love the idea of a conference removing a university president, but I do hope they start with a 25% share and a 10 year vesting period. Seems only reasonable.

    Eliminate one place

    If we kept Chipotle and got rid of the rest, I’m not sure I’d notice.

    It doesn’t mean they’re in the clear for the NCAA, just no criminal charges at the moment.

    Seems like a not ideal time to start that.

    Housing market

    I know every market is a little different, but it has not been my experience at all that new construction and existing homes are comparably priced. I blame HGTV. Also, think about how smart an average person is, then realize that half of the world is dumber. Kitchens and master suites sell...

    Housing market

    In Ames, there are a handful of sub-$200k houses on the market. That’s a maybe. If you move to Boone or Nevada… absolutely.

    Housing market

    When I see my peers complain about how their parents/grandparents were able to afford a home and raise a family on one income, they always seem to elide/forget the fact that these homes were 2-3 bedrooms and 900 square feet.
