    ****Official This Season Isn't Over Thread****

    Good reply. I don't honestly think UNC would have lost by 20 to UNI last year either, but I was trying to put this situation into perspective. I also have no idea if our team will be able to turn things around like UNC did last year (and many other teams do every year), but it's wayyyyy to...

    ****Official This Season Isn't Over Thread****

    It's hilarious to read some of these posts. Conference play hasn't even started yet and and some of you are already giving up on this team.....come on now, get a hold of yourselves. Does everyone remember how terrible UNC was at the beginning of last year? They had more talent than we do on...

    Favorite fast good restaurant?

    Not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but those of you who work in downtown DSM need to get familiar with Pablos' in the skywalk. Awesome, fast and cheap cali taqueria. My wife and I probably miss that place more than anywhere in the DSM/Ames area. The owner is a really cool guy too and he has...

    ***OFFICIAL ISU vs UNI MBB THREAD ***

    Credit to UNI, they played a heck of a game and made some big 3's. Our defense wasn't stellar, but who would have thought they would've killed us from behind the arc tonight? They played about as good of a game as they could have and we just couldn't get it going tonight. They were the...

    Watching Football vs. Basketball

    I definitely agree with this and I've played bball my entire life (but only competitively through HS - Intramurals and pick-up games not included). I think that's why I'm a little surprised I've lost so much interest in the sport - especially the NBA. Maybe it's just a phase.....

    Watching Football vs. Basketball

    See, I used to feel the same way, but now I think the 16 minutes of actual football play is better than the last 5-10 minutes of a basketball game, which is all I really care about (except Cyclone games of course). When it comes to football, I can handle the break between plays, but I will...

    Watching Football vs. Basketball

    Yup, I just think bball was so much better when we were kids. It's kind of sad, but I feel pretty lucky to experience that. No one could mess with the Dream Team!!

    Watching Football vs. Basketball

    Yup, that's even more of an extreme swing since you didn't even play football. I'm really starting to wonder if basketball will ever be as good as it was when I was growing up......especially NBA.

    Watching Football vs. Basketball

    I agree, it is our country's #1 sport and is the most exciting in general......but I'm more curious on whether or not other people who considered bball to be there #1 sport (for a majority of their lives) now feel the same way. Have a majority of former bball fans converted to football fans b/c...

    Watching Football vs. Basketball

    Kind of a random topic, but I'm wondering if anyone else feels the same in my age group (30)......or even out of my age group for that matter.... I grew up through HS playing all sports, but basketball was always my favorite, so I've always enjoyed following College and NBA bball the most. I...

    Cyber Monday

    I paid $249 for the Nook Color in July (Bday present for my wife & she loves it). The Nook Color basically is a slim-downed tablet though - you can do much more on it than just read books. You can surf the web (wi-fi capable), download apps/games, etc.... $129.99 is a steal if you ask me...

    NFL: Sage the Rage Released

    Not sure who your source is, but this is pretty much exactly how I perceived that entire situation (the part in bold is very obvious). One of my good friends business partners also spent time with Sage off the field and he made some similar comments.

    I WAS THERE!

    Sadly, I was not there. I had to work a full day Friday and wouldn't have made it until half time, so I decided to give my tickets away to a co-worker. I'm guessing he'll be forever grateful. At least I was on the field for the 3OT win against Iowa, so I guess I can't be too greedy. I...

    Can't believe no thread on officiating following this game

    Very solid officiating crew last night. They definitely let the play on the field decide the game. Bravo officials!
