  1. It’s an incredibly tight circle for someone who does what he does.
  2. You can’t tell it, but she’s jamming to “Pink Pony Club”. Move over Chappel, the next Midwest Princess is on deck
  3. So I was looking at McCollum’s story deeper, and he has literally based his entire life within a 5.5 hour radius of Storm Lake, Iowa. He’s been biding his time for one of about 5 or 6 jobs in the western Midwest. Kind of a momma’s boy in the most admirable sense. i hate that he’s going to Iowa, but I respect the hell out of him
  4. Exactly. Coaching your Alma mater is a dream for most guys. It’s why I couldn’t understand Tech fans melting down when Beard went to UT.

    She’s trying to, but just can’t formulate that much English yet
  6. It’s mud season in the Upper Midwest. Check back with me in a month

    I’m in a real intense Dan phase. I was buckling my daughter into her car seat earlier and belted out “YOOOU WERE HIGH” as my wife walked into the garage.
  8. Lion Bridge (Cedar Rapids IA) Beer At Work IPA
  9. We all hate Baylor, but what in the ever living fuck does this have to do with anything?
  10. Ready for the day
  11. Got a blizzard Wednesday so it’s still soup season. Cubed up some beef spare ribs and cooked them in butter on the cast iron. Sautéed japs, serranos, poblanos, habaneros, onion, and garlic in the Dutch oven. Added the spare ribs. Can of beer, quart of tomato puree that was canned with copious amounts of chili powder and cumin. Sitting on the smoker until halftime of the ISU game.
  12. Did some Google snooping, and that's exactly what I was hoping to find. Thanks!
  13. In 1958 the AP and Coaches Polls picked LSU. An undefeated LSU. Iowa lost (badly) to Ohio State, and tied Air Force at Kinnick. Air Force wouldn't even graduate it's first class until the following spring. We can look back at it now and realize it's silly to claim they were the national champs. 90% of Iowa fans I know don't celebrate it or consider it a championship. The ones who do are absolutely in the lunatic fringe. Of course they're going to accept it, but it's like someone calling 2017 UCF champs just because the Colley Matrix said so. No serious person considers these valid national championships.
  14. Because we as a college football society moved away from that long ago, and Iowa's my arch-rival so I want to poke holes in their silly claims when I have a strong argument for it. Why are you defending it when the AP (which has much more history of being the standard here) picked LSU? My guess is you're doing it because you have an anti-Big 12 hard on, and you're looking to piss off the ISU fan. Just a guess. This is like the Aggy national titles you guys constantly mock.
  15. Your original argument wasn't about Iowa's schedule or being integrated. It was about LSU losing their bowl game. Which didn't happen. If being progressive with integration is enough to qualify for a natty, then ISU should claim 1923.
  16. They didn't lose any games.
  17. Asheville is definitely a place I want to check out, and likely would on such a trip. I was just thinking specifically for access to GSMNP. Wouldn't need to be anywhere close to Asheville's size and scope.
  18. Is there any place within daily commuting distance of the park that's just a nice mountain town with a brewery or two and some decent restaurants?
  19. 65 yesterday. 4-8" of snow today (closer to a foot 30 miles north or west). 50 on Friday.
  20. It’ll be interesting to see if WVU can grab McCollum over Iowa. Their AD hired him to NWMO.
  21. I think DeVries is pretty good, but I don't think he's "middle of a bidding war between 3 major conference schools" good. Whoever gets him is probably gonna pay too much.
