vermeil a cyclone?
The Chiefs tried to regain some offensive firepower this week by signing Chan Gailey. We haven't been stellar on that side of the ball since Dick Vermeil was around. Well. The old man has been spotted at the East/West Shrine Bowl game practices wearing an ISU CYCLONES HAT!!!How sweet is that? Not sure how or why he got it. I did hear that when Vermeil was still coaching our Chiefs, Jim Criner would help him out in preseason drills, so who knows?
Anyways, there was a post on AP the other day that got my attention, relating offense/defensive rankings to each other. Here are a couple of interesting graphs. (Well, interesting to me)
Above is somewhat of a copy of arrowhead pride's graph. But I put white lines in for years we made the playoffs. I learned nothing except that a lot of different styles of team can make the playoffs. Anybody else learn anything besides: "man, our offense sucked last year!"?
This one is just showing where we have ranked in the Takeaway/Giveaway ratio. The yellow dots are years we made the playoffs, and the red dots are years we didn't. The yellow line is our average T/G ratio ranking when we make the playoffs, and the red line is for when we didn't.Nothing really groundbreaking here, it's amazing that in 1999 we didn't make the playoffs with that ratio. That was Gunther's first year after Marty resigned. The freakin Raiders beat us with a FG in OT to make us finish 9-7 and miss the playoffs.

Hey pole smoke, way to label you're graph. The yellow and red lines mean What???
Geez, where'd you'd go to school?
Also you know how you're always bitching about IOWA fans and how unrealistic/delusional they are, while ISU fans are "completely normal"?

Well Yeah, kettle calling the pot black......? Just thought I'd Share.
Peace out Nuck Futs!
First of all, i know i shoulda put labels on there, but I didn't want the actual graph to be so small, so I just typed it underneath. so shut your hole.
Second of all, that guy you linked to on cyclonefanatic is just that, a fanatic, and seemingly, somewhat of an idiot.
The difference between us and you is that we have one guy who says "It can happen" while pretty much 90% of your fans think that "It should happen" or "it will happen"
That is B. freaking S.
Freaking LSU and their blown coverage at the Cap One, what really was blown that day was all of the hawk fans' ego's and expectations blown all out of whack.
FUCK THE HAWKS GO STATE
You know what I think I might leave the country for a week, maybe head to mexico. Oh wait. I am doing that tomorrow morning.
PEACE OUT SUCKAS!!!!!
