    Dear Baseball Gods...

    I agree it should be Posey but for a little different reason. Heyward's and Posey's offensive numbers are almost identical, regardless of number of games played, I think you throw those out. Where they differ is on the defensive side of the ball. Posey handled an ace pitching staff with a...

    ABC/ESPN Coverage question

    For local coverage (mediacom) Des Moines is considered B12 country. So B12 will always trump B10. Other than that I think gohawqs is right on.

    Dear Baseball Gods...

    Here's my first post from today, and FWIW I was a shocked as anyone else last night when he was called safe. Fortunately or Unfortunately that was one of those "Judgment/Human Error" type calls that Baseball "Purists" love. It will also be one of the plays that those yelling for instant...

    Nebraska or Arizona, who would you rather play in a bowl game?

    Hands down AZ. Iowa will get it's shot at Nebby. That being said, I'll take either in a Bowl Game, because for that to happen it'll be either the Rose Bowl (AZ) or the Fiesta Bowl (NE). I think all of us Hawk fans can live with this.

    Dear Baseball Gods...

    If both the Giants and Phillies make it to the NLCS I'll put Timmy, Matty and Johnny up against them any day. Hope you like 1-0; 2-1 type games because that's what we'll get if Giants/Phillies happens. Halladay was amazing on Wednesday. I'd say Timmy was as good, however the No-No is the...

    Dear Baseball Gods...

    One down, Ten to go! Timmy was lights out last night 9 IP, 0 Runs, 2 Hits, 14 Ks, 1 BB. Posey was definitely out at second, but the umpire was in a bad position to make the call. However, that's the position they're usually in to make that call. Posey's body was in the way and the ump...

    Dear Baseball Gods...

    ...I realize that being the winningest team in Baseball history comes at a price, no World Series Title since 1954, but could you please find it in your hearts to grace the Giants with a title this year. I've talked to the Football Gods and I am willing to trade 3 Hawkeye wins (AZ, MSU, tOSU)...

    Roy Halladay

    Dude was lights out last night. I've never seen a pitcher be able to put pitches anywhere he wanted like Halladay did last night. It was epic, and I was glad I was able to witness it.

    Iowa's Regular Season Record

    Interesting. How did you assign wins? Was it scientific or off the top of your head? My only comment would be to adjust the win percentage for Michigan and Michigan State after this weekend. We'll know a lot more after Saturday.

    Throwback Arrived!

    Obviously you were able to get the purchase through the "Finance Committee", so I don't understand why are you having trouble with the "War Department"? ;)

    MSU Game on Beggars Night?

    I KNOW! I have a feeling that the Des Moines City Council had something to do with this many many moons ago and it was some politically correct move that has stuck. Fun Haters!

    World series picks....????

    What??? I'm sorry but the Braves are not a Cinderella Story by any means. That title lies with either Tampa Bay, Texas, or Cincy. I'll give you Sentimental Story of the year, because it's Bobby Cox's last season, but Cinderella is a little bit of a stretch. Hope you're prepared for a very...
