  1. Again, I've spent my entire life immersed in Iowa State fanhood, and these are the following schools I've heard anyone call a rival: Iowa Kansas State Kansas Missouri Nebraska That's it. Maybe there's a group of ISU fans who consider Texas a rival out there, but I've never met a single one of them nor come across one on Twitter or any ISU message board.
  2. Jarrod Hufford is not the average Cyclone fan. The players often feel differently about opponents than fans do.
  3. Hating someone doesn't mean you think they're a rival. I hate schools ISU has never even played. If you asked 100 ISU fans if they hated Texas, 90 of them would say yes. If you asked a 100 ISU fans if Texas was a rival, 90 of them would say no. I can't imagine KSU is any different.
  4. 73 on Monday afternoon. 4 this morning. Actual temps.
  5. Did the Clemson coach mention our best post player was injured in those non-con tournaments? Imagine anyone at ESPN making this point about SEC football playing 8 games and having FCS games in November.
  6. They're people who's Constitutional education skipped the First Amendment and never got past the Second.
  7. I'm a farmer that has benefitted from subsidies. I cash the check because I have to, but I will bluntly tell anyone who asks that I don't think we should be getting them and they are absolutely no different than welfare. It's the government choosing to give money to a certain group of people because they think there will be some larger benefit from doing so. If I have to do anything at the FSA office I say I'm "going to the Welfare Shop". I love the reactions I get from that.
  8. And they have a shit load of fans to drive up ratings. Plus, they're just a blast to hate on. If Aggy wanted to rejoin the Big 12 I'd love it. They'd be convinced they'd go undefeated every year and then punk UT in the playoffs, and they'd end up going 8-4 every fucking year just like they do now because it's what they do.
  9. The lack of self awareness in all of this is what gets me (including on the part of the guy who negged me). I always joke that the State of Iowa has an ag exemption for murder (I'm sure Kansas is the same).
  10. It would be kind of hilarious for the Big 10 to announce another alliance with a conference and then undercut them. And if anyone (who actually brings value) would leave the SEC for the Big 10 it's Aggy. Mizzou would too, but that isn't happening. Of course now that the SEC has Texas they might not even care if Aggy did leave.
  11. I'm absolutely a lyrics guy, but there's got to be a good melody or riff. Great songwriting is when a strong melody meets meaningful words, and it can be stripped down to one person on an acoustic guitar and still make you feel.
  12. I was at a wedding that used "One" by U2 as a song during the service. That was cringeworthy.
  13. I've literally jumped because I thought the fuel pump TV was a person yelling at me.
  14. WVU choked away a shot to win in regulation. KSU will pull this off now
  15. When it’s 70 degrees in north Iowa in February you have deck beers
  16. Yeah, I feel like his specials have taken enough shots at that crowd that they'd get the hint, but they only care that he was canceled from SNL due to an old racist tweet, and that basically puts you next to God in that crowd.
  17. You poor bastard. There is nothing worse than wealthy farmers and ranchers who cash massive subsidy checks screaming about taxes and government handouts as they buy $80K 4 door pick ups to keep from paying taxes.
  18. This is really starting to piss me off. I understand that my measurable stats (white, straight, male, late 30's, Iowan, farmer) scream Republican, so I get why people who barely know me (or don't know me at all) assume I'm of that political ilk, but I also get annoyed when liberals do it too. A lot of people just lack the awareness to realize there are good odds that in almost every social situation there are a mix of political beliefs, and that most people are just so worn out on the subject that they don't want to talk about it any how.
  19. “I’m not gonna pay $80 for some shrink to show me ink blots of a priest’s dick” I laughed so hard I started choking
  20. Very frustrated but glad for the win. Almost feels like they knew the Houston/Baylor result and were out of mentally as a result
  21. God damn it Baylor. Get your shit together. Fucking clowns.
  22. Camp fire roasted Oscar Meyer’s topped with camp fire warmed Hormel chili, and some Lay’s sour cream and onion.
