    I meant Trouble Boys. Brain fart based off previous error
  2. That’s what everyone eating it will call it. I know better than to use the C word on this site.
  3. High in the 60’s today. Vikes at noon. It’s soup season in the upper Midwest. Sautéed onions, garlic, shallots, serranos, poblanos, Hatches, and habaneros. Browned a pound of ground venison and a pound of ground pork. Dumped a can of beer, and quart jar of home grown tomato puree that’s simmered with a shit load of chili powder and cumin. Dutch oven will be sitting on my pellet grill at the lowest possible setting until half time.
  4. Did you get to Uncle Harry’s or Singlespeed? Love Cedar Falls
  5. Congrats today. You guys looked dominant.
  6. Yup. Here’s her victory drink
  7. Might have to make it a thing. And by “sober” I mean legally. I’ve had 3 beers since noon
  8. Holy shit. This is the first time I’ve been sober for a CyHawk game since I was 16. My heart rate was like 140 at the end
  9. I don't know why you wouldn't make that permanent.
  10. This guy has forever become known as "Hawkeyes On My Belly". One of the crucial points of debate in the Iowa/ISU rivalry, is that most ISU fans actually went to school there (why else would you would actively subject yourself to this torture?) and are relatively upwardly mobile productive citizens. Drive through a trailer court, and you won't see any Cyclone flags. You will see plenty of Hawkeye gear. HOMB is the living, breathing, embodiment of every conceit ISU fans hold towards Iowa fans. This is his house:
  11. Something that needs to be scrubbed from the internet forever. About 10-15 years ago, someone convinced a bunch of fairly nice mid-sized Midwestern cities that they needed to make the absolute cheesiest (yet unfortunately sincere) promo videos imaginable. Reinforce every stereotype about people in the middle of the country being out of touch rubes as you can in a 3 minute segment. The same people had a hand in this monstrosity: I will say this: that tap water can cure hangovers. Shit you not.
  12. That UNLV throwback logo is siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick
  13. It comes down to how badly Matt Campbell wants to try and beat Kirk Ferentz at his own game. If we run a similar game plan to what we ran against you guys last year, we'll win. If we run the game plan we've run against them every year for the last 6-7 years, not a chance in hell.
  14. You have far more to offer this thread than I do. I'd like to get back, and my folks go regularly, but I just haven't made it.
  15. It's the only hike I've done there and I just have real fond memories of it. I'm no Sedona expert.
  16. Mine's still 13 months. Plan though is to watch the game at a friend's house across town where there's a mix of kids her age, as well as some of their older siblings (3rd gradeish) who love playing with my daughter when we hang out, but aren't quite old enough for unsupervised sitting. I'll just have to handle the mid-game diapers, and getting her some food off the pot luck line that she'll inevitably throw on the floor of my buddy's garage, or out in his yard for the dogs.
  17. Loy Canyon Trail is incredible. Could be more than you're willing to bite off, but you can always turn around.
  18. My cousin sent me a snap showing a bunch of the recent construction at the Gathering Space being complete. Looked great. That's one of my favorite parks anywhere.
  19. This is the best description of this stupid fucking game I've ever seen. I hate it so god damn much, and it's worse this year because I'm a single parent for the weekend and have to do dumb things like "be sober" and "keep a small helpless human alive" and "be an attentive loving parent", when all I'll really want to do is get drunk in my garage and break my lawn chairs before I build a fire in the backyard and stare at it while listening to Johnny Cash's version of "Hurt" on repeat, only to wake up with a headache on Sunday and say something stupid like "maybe the Vikings will save my weekend".

    I love Danger Boys.
  21. Had a real solid brunch at Bramble in The Pearl district of Tulsa when I was down there in March.
  22. We used to beat Iowa on the reg and then go 3-6 (at best) in the Big 12. I can live with losing to them and winning 6+ conference games. But occasionally winning this game would be cool too.
