Warmer, Colder
Podcasts March 23rd, 2007Is Brian ready to be a father? Well that we are not sure of, but one thing is for sure we did some research on old time Vegas. And before we forget you guys have been on fire with your feedback and stay tuned for a very special comment that has been sent into the show.
Time for last casino review, one of the newest places in town and it’s already had a name change. The South Point has some of the best food in town, steer clear of the dueling pianos. The gambling is fantastic, the poker room maybe small but has great jackpots and the sports book is willing to take a chance.
Love it, hate it is all about the McCarran International Airport. It may have great car parking, but good luck trying to find your rental car. And we wrap up with a listener submitted story for the This Ain’t Iowa segment.

Beautiful website upgrade Tony and thanks for the work you do to get this stuff out so consistently.
I feel like I’m typing this message in an ultralounge.
The new styling is great although I do think we need a more ‘vegasy’ picture (this one looks like it could be on a church programme). I am sure some of the contributors would submit suggestions.

Good show once again guys.
After the Horse-player comments I know why I’m so “onery” some times..guess I better see if my efferdent is ready before I head out for the track..maybe I’ll check out the “early-bird” special at Dennys on the way.

Nice new look - but y’all better be careful or someone is going to mistake you for people who know what they are doing. A group NCAA bracket, polls, links, cookies to stop me from having to enter my email address every time - pretty soon you’ll be selling out and adding advertising, making money and then where will we be?
I completely agree with Slashdogx about the banner picture - I thought I was in the wrong place at first.

It’s so luxurious in here. Where is that picture of that sunset taken? Looks nothing like Iowa nor Vegas. Whatever.
Not to be nitpicky, but BMO Chad Brown won the 2006 BLUFF MAGAZINE player of the year not the 2005 Cardplayer player of the year award….however I heard Steve Nash pulled down the 2003 WNBA Defensive Player of the Year….so he’s got that going for him, which is nice.

On your new site look..
I finally figured it out…more earthy tones, less of a carbon foot print.
Just a thought, an Enya track would go well with this..? Sail Away!

Patch, my guess would be that that is Lake Powell. Personally, I like http://www.bigfoto.com/sites/galery/las_vegas/strip-las-vegas.jpg

Kudos on the website change. Pretty website, but not sure it goes with your images. Anyway, keep up the good work. Go Bucks.

So Fennville ups the stakes with a pre-produced call into the show. Nice job SOF - very well donel
Is it ok if those of us who can write continue post the old way?

I feel the same way about McCarren as Brian - but for different reasons.
I love it when I fly into there because it means I’m in Vegas Baby.
I hate it when i fly out of there because it means I’m not in Vegas.
I don’t know about rental cars and usually try to set up limo before flying in - but the cab line is a sight to behold. When you first seeit you immediately are trying to figure out how many HOURS it’ll be before you get anywhere - but then you end up in a cab in less than 10 minutes. Wild.

DUDE>>>
Barton College. Division II National Champions.
If you didn’t see the last 12 seconds of that game, keep your eye on sportcenter tonight. It was AMAZING.

Nice job with the website upgrade… it’s looking good! I have to agree with the general consensus — people will start expecting that you guys know what you’re talking about!
Talking about McCarren, I don’t really get to see the main terminal much because Air Canada flights land at a different terminal. It’s kinda dingy and run down, but there’s far less traffic and getting a cab is a breeze.
I just started a new job so I haven’t been checking the message board very often. I can’t believe I missed the “little man”… that was the sh!t!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep up the great work, boys! You’re still an absolute blast to listen to even after the novelty of being “degenerate-gamblers-podcasters” wore off… you guys rock!

Thanks for the feedback on the change to the website, the photo is just the one that came with this design and it will not be staying long term. I have someone already working on a new header and it’s a lot more classer than the one I had put together.
As Brian talked about on the show this is just one of a number of changes coming to the site and if any of the changes are not to your liking please let me know, so I can improve the experience for everybody.
March 24th, 2007 at 10:43 pm
Dude. I say leave the pic. Its like buying a frame and keeping the lameass pic that accompanies it. You can always make up a sweet story about it.
March 24th, 2007 at 11:26 pm
Wow, for a second I thought I signed on to a Timeshare Sales site or something…. what is that, Lake Tahoe?
Are the rumors true??? Are you guys really selling this site to Google for $1.4 Billion?
March 25th, 2007 at 1:47 am
If that’s really Lake Powell, you guys could change the name to “the Forbodden Zone Podcast”..
Then again, that sounds pretty geeky.
March 25th, 2007 at 2:13 am
toto we’re not on kansas anymore!
I’m one unc win over g-town away from being done with this nonsense for about 8 months.
March 25th, 2007 at 2:51 pm
That looks like a picture Tommy might have taken on one of his majestic kayak trips on lake powell. You guys must have been “looking in the fish tank” so to speak, when you posted that.
March 25th, 2007 at 4:24 pm
I just have to say ugh….. I can’t believe KU missed that many layups! oh well I guess its on to next year!
March 25th, 2007 at 4:41 pm

Why does that Midget Cops video remind me of trying to get my 4 year old to bed some nights?
that guy has to be the leprechaun at O’Sheas. He has some obvious skills that took him to Vegas.
Brian, I can do a lot better than teach you a slot system. I have several names of African diplomats who need just a few dollars up front and want to pay you millions.
