Week 3: Miami (FL)

I noticed this as well. For about the last 45 minutes, Trump was allowed to have the last word on just about every question asked, except for one, that I can think of. He figured out the moderators (or whoever was controlling the mics) wouldn't shut his mic down when Harris got done speaking...

This. Even just lining up with trips near one sideline removes 3 defenders from the LOS box and improves the chances for a successful run.

It absolutely was a factor. I haven't really liked the new 2 min timeout, both watching games on TV and in-person at Kinnick. If both teams hold onto their 3 second half timeouts until the end -- as Iowa and ISU did -- that basically means fans are likely to be subjected to 7, that's correct...

Going for the 2pt conversion with over 4 min remaining in the 3rd quarter made no sense. Iowa had run what, 7 plays from that place on the field up to that point, and 6 of them had been unsuccessful. The odds of a successful 2 pt conversion were 1 in 7 at best. I turned to my neighbor at...

When you have an elite-level defense returning, your entire OLine returning, perhaps the best RB room in program history -- I don't think expectations were unrealistic given the lightness of Iowa's schedule. "Cade knows he can play better" is an odd think to suggest. In his head, maybe. In...

Week 1: Nebraska Week 2: Oklahoma Bring back the Big 8!

From Row 15 at Kinnick on Saturday I noticed that and wondered the same thing. Surprised they didn't at least take a look at it on video. After Coop's punt return TD negation last year, can you imagine the crowd reaction at Kinnick if this TD would have been discounted?!

Just saw the final few minutes of the ISU game. Campbell did not look pleased.

I thought Sanders was very raw last year: couldn't find secondary receivers, held onto the ball WAY too long, etc. Last night was a different story: threw every type of ball -- short, medium, long, short touch passes, sideline-to-sideline, under pressure -- just a stunning display of accuracy...

This. Well said. If there was no danger in giving young infants multiple vaccines, there wouldn't be waivers that parents have to sign prior to the infant receiving the dose...and there are waivers that need to be signed, because there are potential side effects. Rare, but possible. With both...

Week 1: Nebraska

I'm sympathetic to folks with various conditions, but I have to wonder why anyone who is sensitive to stimuli would choose to go someplace where there are 70,000 people, loud music, and cheering crowds.

Agree that Penn St. will tie for 2nd in the BTen. Not sure whether they'll tie with OSU or the Ducks, however.

Oh I think yes, absolutely. I look for Moulton to get the most carries -- i.e. run up the middle and off tackle, because he can apparently read the creases and get positive yards. I look for Kaleb to be the guy catching swing passes out of the backfield -- can you imagine a LB trying to keep...

I hear what you're saying, but it's not like McNamara has been sitting eating bon bons all spring and summer. He's been throwing in 7-on-7 drills for awhile now. Simple out patterns require no mental sharpness and should be the FIRST thing to return as far as muscle memory. I'm guessing he's...

After watching raw footage of all 3 QBs on Saturday, on that day I would rank them: 1) Sullivan 2) Lainez 3) McNamara Coaches keep saying McNamara hasn't seen much live action, and hasn't played in X number of years -- which just isn't true -- especially when compared to Lainez. Cade started 4...

I get bored with swimming pretty easily, more interested in the track & field events. Yeah, the individual table tennis and badminton are pretty crazy. The 'olympic sport' that isn't a 'sport' to me are the equestrian events which involve horses. I mean, if you're going there, why not dog...

One of the things I really dislike about freestyle wrestling is the 'push out' rule. In his gold medal match, Lee pushes the guy out twice in the 1st period and gets 2 pts. He pushes the guy out 3 x in the 2nd period and get zero points -- because in the 2nd period the guy is on his knees...

A good number of my neighbors don't share my political or world view, but we're friends. Same with my in-laws. But I'll never be CLOSE friends with them, because public policy and politics is my passion and life's work that I care about deeply. When I meet someone for the first time...
