Iowa St.

I know they are our rival and that is why I'm following them more than other schools but...

Why were they ranked to start the year in the top 15? We have made it over a month into the season and their best win is a 2 point win over Drake at home. While they have challenged themselves with tough games, the majority of their non-conference looks very, very soft. Kind of like our men's team type of schedule.

Why did people think they were supposed to be THAT good?

* official 49ers @ Dolphins thread *

It's a rare late-afternoon game in Miami Gardens as the Dolphins host the San Francisco 49ers at 4:25 eastern on CBS.

Both teams had very disappointing seasons, entering the game at 6-8. With no playoff hopes, both teams are playing for next year's roster spots and/or pride.

Tua imploded last week with a season's worth of giveaways in one game. For all the talk about Miami's high-powered offense, it's been Miami's defense that has impressed, and Miami's defensive coordinator is reportedly on the market for a head coach job.

This is the last home game of the season for the Dolphins. After today they'll have cold-weather games against Cleveland and the NY Jets.

Weather Report: Sunny, temps in the low 70s, with light winds out of the NE and zero chance of rain.

How will Juco ruling impact recruiting?

With the ruling that JUCO athletes retain all 4 years of NCAA eligibility regardless if they play at a JUCO for two years, how does that impact recruiting in sports? I would think it makes jucos more enticing for players to attend as they are pretty much a prep school now, especially with DI rosters being cut in most sports. Login to view embedded media

Trump threatens to sue Iowa pollster, newspaper

President-elect Donald Trump threatened Monday to file a lawsuit against The Des Moines Register and famed Iowa pollster Ann Selzer, whose final survey before the Nov. 5 election badly underestimated Trump's support in the state, which he won.



“In my opinion it was fraud and election interference," Trump claimed of the survey, according to the Associated Press.


The incoming president took questions from reporters Monday at Mar-a-Lago in Florida during his first news conference since winning election.




ABC News last week agreed to pay $15 million toward Trump’s presidential library to settle a lawsuit over anchor George Stephanopoulos’ inaccurate assertion on the air that the Trump had been found civilly liable for raping writer E. Jean Carroll. Instead, Trump had been found liable for sexual assaulting and defaming her.


Trump on Monday previewed future legal action he planned to take against the news media. “I'm not doing this because I want to, I'm doing this because I feel l have an obligation to,” he told reporters.


“I'm going to be bringing one against the people in Iowa, their newspaper, which had a very, very good pollster, who got it right all the time and then just before the election, she said I was going to lose by three of four points,” Trump continued. “And it became the biggest story of all time, all over the world.”




Selzer announced last month that she would retire her polling operation, a decision she said she had made well before the election.


The pollster, whose sterling reputation took a hit when it missed the Trump-Harris result in Iowa by 17 points, said she has seen nothing in the polling data that should have signaled the results were off.


“If you’re hoping that I had landed on exactly why things went wrong, I have not,” Selzer said Friday during recording of “Iowa Press” at Iowa PBS Studios in Johnston. “It does sort of awaken me in the middle of the night, and I think, ‘Well, maybe I should check this. This is something that would be very odd if it were to happen.’ But we’ve explored everything.”

Surround sound help

Bought a new Sony tv and Sony receiver. Existing surround sound left by prior homeowners, so I decided I’d reuse. Seems to work ok when watching cable or listening to music but when the ps5 is the input things get weird. During games, the entry screen where normally music would be played (think nba 2k) only the sub plays, no other speakers. If I play YouTube through the ps5, no sound at all. I’ve tried to adjust all the ps5 settings but I cannot get it figured out. Is there any audio/video studs out there that can set me straight?
