that the Bucs will be on the next season of "Hard Knocks" on HBO (that is, if there is a season at all.) Can you imagine? Raheem Morris, Josh Freeman, and LeGarrette Blount!

Essentially Flyertalk / boutique/gourmet hot dog restaurants
« on: January 22, 2011, 08:01:00 AM »
Thoughts? I went to Dog Nuvo (http://www.eatatdognuvo.com/) in KC yesterday. I thought it was pretty good but maybe a bit pricy. I had a reuben dog that was $6.50 or $7.00 (can't remember) as well as the truffle & asiago potato chips. The dog was awesome and maybe worth it, the chips were also really good but definitely not worth 3 bucks. Also, there is very little room in that place.

Kansas State Football / Questions about scheduling philosophy
« on: April 01, 2010, 10:02:13 AM »
I know this has been discussed ad nauseam but I was trying to devise what the ideal scheduling strategy for K-State should be and was curious what others thought.
1.) Should K-State schedule ONE FCS (Div. I-AA) team every season? - As much as I hate doing it, I have to say yes to this. It gives us a guaranteed home game and a guaranteed win that counts towards bowl eligibility.
2.) Should K-State look into scheduling any neutral site games with middle to upper level BCS conference teams? Arrowhead would be an obvious choice for the site but maybe other possibilities could be Denver, St. louis, or Jerryworld. - I'm leaning toward answering no to this but I am a total sucker for neutral site games, dunno why. The main reasons why not would be because of the higher likelihood of losing due to playing a higher profile opponent and the fact that it takes away a potential home game.
3.) Assuming we do schedule one home game against an FCS team every year, how do we approach the remaining 3 non-con games? Is the goal to get an almost guaranteed 4 wins in non-con by playing all 4 games against terrible teams? Is the goal to play higher profile teams to get K-State national television exposure but risk losing 1 or 2 non-con games in doing so? How many BCS conference opponents should we schedule vs. non-BCS conference opponents? Should we do home-and-home series with the remaining 3 non-con games or try to do some the one year home game rent-a-victim deals? - I think the goal should be to schedule in such a way that we are fairly certain we will get 4 wins in non-con. I think the benefits of 4 wins outweighs the excitement and exposure we get from playing nationally televised games where we will likely lose. The big XII has enough potential for big games. As for the remaining 3 games, I think it is most fiscally responsible to schedule 3 home-and-home series. I think we should try really hard to get 1-2 bottom dwellers in BCS conferences (ex: Indiana, Washington State, Syracuse, and Virginia) And 1-2 regional mid-majors (ex: Colorado State, Wyoming, Tulsa, and Texas/Louisiana schools)
