  1. I saw him open for Turnpike years ago knowing nothing of him and really liked it. Sold me on him
  2. Are you referencing Charley? See him live before settling on an opinion would be my suggestion You say that last sentence like it’s not an incredible compliment
  3. Now you’re getting it. Think Guymon,OK with mountains in the distance
  4. Red and yellow bells have a sweet flavor that works as a compliment to certain things. They're solid on a veggie dip tray, and roasted red bells are pretty tasty. I'm with you on green.
  5. Absolutely. They have no flavor and no heat. They're just there. I guess stuffed green bell peppers can be good, but that's just because they absorb flavor from whatever you stuffed them with.
  6. Greeley's basically the Midwest in every sense. But you can see the mountains from there.
  7. Why? We've been told over and over how the haves shouldn't be subsidizing lesser programs, and how boring those games are. This eliminates all of that. Every member would be a major financial contributor, and every division/conference game is against a helmet school. Need to have some breathers? Do it in the non-conference. It almost seems like you're just trying to advocate for the shittiest possible version of college football as it would relate to my interests, as ISU would either be one of the first schools out or one of the last in, and frankly both of those outcomes would be worse than what we have today (for me). I doubt that's your intent, but 40-48 schools going their own way would suck.
  8. That's a pretty massive fucking difference.
  9. You're correct. Minnesota sort of does, but they belong on our level too. There's a certain poster that I won't @ that will definitely bitch about my saying this for the millionth time, but if continued consolidation is the way this is going, I'd much prefer that the top 16-18 brands break away in their own association/conference/whatever you want to call it. Kick 2/3rds of the Big 10 and the bottom half of the SEC to play in a division with current Big 12 and ACC schools. I think a lot of people would eventually be happy with that. The blue bloods get their buffet of marquee meaningful games and massive paychecks. The rest of us get regional college football mostly the way we fell in love with it, and a chance to play for a championship. The appetite for live sports will keep that division in a good TV spot and well paid (good enough anyways). The schools left behind from the current Big 10 and SEC might be upset for minute, but they'd likely be the most competitive in their divisions in this set up. I think that would be interesting and fun. No one outside of the top 16 brands is ever winning a natty anyhow. The thing that chaps my ass, personally, is having these nearby schools like Minnesota, Mizzou, Iowa, etc that are riding the gravy train, contributing little, and meanwhile we're always getting threatened with something and playing games all over the fucking country. I have 0 resentment for schools that command big bucks and big eyeballs wanting to play games against other similar schools. I strongly resent having to listen to Iowa fans brag about a conference they add dick to.
  10. I think Oregon and Rutgers FANS kinda would prefer that, but they know it’s untenable in the current environment.
  11. Kick Mizzou, Iowa, and Nebraska out of the tree fort and that sounds awesome. That Plains pod is very close to my ideal schedule.
  12. To be fair, I think you guys and maybe USC and OU are the only fanbases that don’t want to play regional schools. And the TV execs. Can’t forget them.
  13. I don't give a fuck about playing name schools. There really aren't any in the division proposed for ISU. But it's loaded with local teams. Teams my school has history with. Teams whose fans I interact with. I don't give a shit if Ohio State and Texas have unlimited NIL. I don't care if they get a better TV slot. I want two things: opponents that makes sense, and a theoretical shot to play for a championship. That's it, and this gives us that.

    Yeah, saw the Damn Quails there when there were still some Covid precautions. You had to buy a whole table, so we did. Not the full experience, but still a great show and a great time.
  15. On the one hand, it exemplifies what makes this thread great. On the other hand, it's ketchup on a choice cut of beef. But this thread isn't about the fucking rules. Play on, player.
