    Okay, I Get It! No trade off of wrestling for baseball!

    In a thread some where, I can't remember where, I suggested that ISU should trade in the wrestling program for a return to baseball, even though I mentioned that I probably wouldn't get much agreement. And, man was I right!! So far I've received ten or more "thumbs down" or "disagree"...

    Farmageddon-Big 12, Big 10? Which/Who/Huh?....

    So I'm watching the preview of the Iowa/Nebraska Woman's Big 10 tournament game and the BTN announcer refers to the game as Farmageddon. And of course many of us like to think of the KSU/ISU rivalry, (if there is one), as Farmageddon. So, who "owns" the term. At one time I thought there...

    KXVO Channel 15/Omaha Does Big 12 BB...

    I'm happy to see KXVO broadcasting the Big 12 Phillips 66 network games even though NU is now Big 10. I thought they might desert the Big 12 even though there are plenty of ISU fans and other B-12 fans in the area. I contacted them at KXVO.com to let them know that I appreciated their...

    World Herald won't let me enjoy my Clones........

    No, the Omaha World Herald would not let me celebrate the great victory of my, (our), Iowa State Cyclones for even a 24 hour period. It took four "mastermind" columnist of that husker riddled piece of parchment to put together the list of teams to be included in the so-called super conferences...

    Missouri has a Clone Zone?

    This morning a blurb appeared in the Omaha World herald that Missouri now has formed a media network like Texas, KSU, etc. has done. Now reading the particulars that it is an internet network that will show Olympic Sports and other Mizzou related stuff, it appeared to me to be nothing but...

    I have two tickets in Section L, Upper Deck on the aisle for easy access, for sale. Want to sell to Cyclone fans, but no action here, and I go to Stubb Hub - no telling what riff raff gets them there. Send me a personal message - because I don't know how - and we can talk price. Jim

    I-State/Big 12 Logo Needed Big Time.....

    I need an I-State/Big 12 magnetic applicae or bumper sticker that I can put on my car that states something like: "Iowa State Cyclones: Proud Member of The Big 12 Conference" I am so sick of all the Nebbie/Big 10 hype over here in Omaha that I could just puke. Help me, help me someone...

    Now is when I begin to really miss Cyclone.....

    Baseball. The basketball season is about to mercifully end, and football is months away. It all leaves a void in Cyclone sports for me - a real downer. My favorite time of the year is spring and summer weather wise, and the baseball that comes with it. All I'll read about in the OWH is...

    OWH No Longer Recognizes Big 12

    Today's Omaha World Herald included on their sports front page a big article on the Big 10's new logo - no surprise there. But along with the Big 10 logo they also included a display entitled "Other Major Conferences' Logos. The graphic display included the logos for the ACC, SEC, PAC 10, and...

    Drake/Creighton fans.......

    HR posts a little "pliable".........

    If not a total melt down, it is getting a little "soupy" over there. An example follows: Post #2838 MyFanPage Add BuddyI want StoopsReplyCan't believe I just said that but it's the only thing to do. Ferentz will never get rid of KOK and Norm so that means we will do the same F'n thing next...

    Bowling in the South, (Thread # 157 or so)

    Yeah, I know, this has been discussed to ad nauseum, but given Mr. Pollard's pronouncement on last night's call in show that it ain't happening because he can't sell it to the BOR given current attendance numbers, bear with me while I give this tired out subject one more stab. Then we can...

    ISU has game parking issues? Try Neb.....

    Got this nugget off today's World Herald giving NU fans choices for parking. How 'bout hanging out in a city garage where you can't tailgate, or hanging on to a parking meter as you gussle your Bud Light. Cyclone fans don't know how good we have it. I'd take the Haunted Forest over this any...

    Thanks to ISU and Ames from the BCA...

    During the week of July 27 - Aug 1, I attended the Buick Club of America, (yeah, there is such a thing), National Meet at ISU outside of Hilton and the Scheman Center. Around 300+ cars and 700 people attended. Heard many comments from participants form all over the US, Canada, and even from...

    Direct TV - Game Plan or Sports Pack?

    It's that time of year again where I need to choose a Direct TV sports package to ensure I get the one giving me optimum Cyclone Football Coverage. Last year I chose Sports Pack because it included most if not all Fox Outlets, and it worked out okay. I would think the same would be true this...

    Dodging OSU, Mich., and Penn State........

    Among other items in Shatell's column in this mormings World Herald is the following tid bit: "It's not too soon to speculate on divisional lineups. We assume that Nebraska would fit with Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois and Northwestern. With 12 teams, the rotation could look a lot like...
