    I was in Worcester, MA for those games. Kentucky game was incredible with Bayless and Thigpen pretty much unstoppable. I met the woman who was in charge of travel for the team, and since I lived in Philly where the next round was, she asked me to help find a hotel if ISU beat Kentucky. Pretty...

    Cyclone History, 1983

    I don’t remember if it was this game, but we had great seats about 10 rows behind the Missouri bench. There were 3 very drunk guys right behind us who kept complaining that someone needed to get Norm to sit down. During a time out, we hear the drunk guys wondering where their buddy went. We look...

    Friday OT #2 - Brushes with Fame

    Many years ago, my friend’s brother was a studio cameraman for the NFL Today on CBS. Got to go to the show in NY a couple of times. Really cool getting to watch them do the show when Greg Gumbel and Terry Bradshaw were on it. Both of them couldn’t have been nicer. Pretty crazy me sitting in...

    ***2021-22 NCAA Mens Basketball Thread***

    During the TCU game, ESPN put up a graphic showing the current Big 12 Standings. ISU failed to make the list, but Ohio State with their logo was in there at 2-3!

    Officiating travesty in Lawrence

    Sports Illustrated had an article many years ago where they did research on the home field advantage in several sports. In all cases, it came down to the officiating. Whether calling balls and strikes or fouls, it was determined that human nature makes you subconsciously want to have thousands...

    *** Official Iowa vs #17 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    King was there. On the way out, I told him it looks like he picked the right team. His big smile was all the reply I needed!

    Pearl Harbor 80th Anniversary

    And the Wisconsin docked that close to the downtown buildings is quite the sight!

    Pearl Harbor 80th Anniversary

    Ha! That would have been good. It was long enough ago that the Iowa wasn’t a museum yet. It might have been in Bremerton, WA at that time?

    I meant battleships, not carriers! It’s late!

    Pearl Harbor 80th Anniversary

    During my previous work for a defense contractor, I took several trips to a facility located on Camp Smith, which is just up the hill from Pearl Harbor. The Headquarters of the Pacific Fleet is also located there. I would look down at the beautiful view of the harbor and image what they must...

    *** Official #9 Memphis vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    Another tidbit from after the game yesterday- I was talking to Conditt’s dad and he said George was telling him last summer to watch out this year because TJ and this team were different. Sounded like he was saying to him he would believe it when he saw it. Looks like George bought in last...

    *** Official #9 Memphis vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    With 2 min left in the game, a Memphis fan behind me taps me on the shoulder and asks if we made the Sweet 16 last year. After my laughter stopped, and I told him we won 2 games, he says, ‘2 games in the Tournament?”. After my laughter stopped again and I made it clear that it was 2 total and we...

    Is Fran Fraschilla the best college basketball analyst since Bill Snyder was born?

    I talked to Fran before the game. He said it hasn’t been announced yet, but he’ll be doing the ISU-Iowa game.

    Morgantown roll call!

    I’ll be heading there from the Philly area with my son who is a senior at Pitt. Like 2 years ago, I told him to leave his Pitt gear at home to not get abused! Pretty funny when a spontaneous “Eat S*#t Pitt” chant breaks out at the tailgate for the Iowa State game. Does anyone know what section...

    Battle 4 Atlantis 2019

    Stopped at Nassau on a cruise with extended family a few years ago. The ladies went shopping and the boys went to Atlantis. They do have day passes. Seems like it was around $120 each for adults.

    Battle 4 Atlantis 2019

    I’m heading down with my wife and 2 teenage sons. Haven’t set up airport transfers yet. I know a few people that have done the swimming with the pigs and they said It was pretty cool, so I looked into it. $400 per person and it takes 8 1/2 hrs so without knowing when we play, makes it kind of...
