    POLLitically Incorrect – 12/6/16

    Another week, another set of craptastic rankings. The biggest thing we learned from last week is that anything below 15 is basically a crap shoot every week. Why did they arbitrarily decide to stop the rankings at 25? Football ranks 25 teams and there’s only 128. There’s 351 in basketball, why not rank the top-50? […]

    We’re starting a new weekly college basketball piece here at TGS headquarters. Everyone sees the AP Rankings on Mondays and everyone seems to have their weekly gripes and complaints about why this team is better than this team, or “how can Team X be behind Team Y when Team X beat Team Y?” See how […]

    Iowa State Basketball Preview

    Last year’s team was perhaps the best on paper basketball team in Iowa State history, and certainly the best since Marcus Fizer and Jamaal Tinsley put on the cardinal and gold.

    Sticking up for the refs

    Author’s note: For this article I will be speaking in regards to college football , but the same message applies in all sports. Refs get a bad rap. Every sports fan here can probably remember a game when they felt their favorite team was slighted by a bad call. A bad call so erroneous that […]
