Sure it is. So is virtually every defense in college football. If the front four can consistently get pressure then they won't blitz as much. If they don't then they will. I'm just saying that they showed last year they're willing to blitz more than they have traditionally.

I don't have the desire to do the research, but I know for a fact Iowa blitzed much more than they ever have last season. The old no blitzing defense appears to be a thing of the past.

Papa's Pizza in Polk City is my favorite in the Des Moines area for sure. Love that freakin' place.

FWIW... I've talked to two different parents now who are family friends of the Waggoner's (they have kids that go to school with him) and they both told me they thought he'd end up going out of state. This was at least two months ago though. Rob's report sure makes it seem like he's still very...

You call it a cliche'... I call it an opinion formed after reading many of your posts. Look at your history. Not hard to come to that conclusion.

This is what HawkGold does. He's a glass half empty personality who consistently plays the high and mighty card. It's easy to see traits come out after people post on here for an extended period of time. In particular, it's easy to notice those who tend to be opposite of you. I'm a glass half...

Wait and see if they call you back in the next few days.

Honestly, this is the first post of his I've read beginning to end, and I think I did so because it was so idiotic. Most of the time I see the format and grammar of his posts (or threads that he starts) and I don't even bother because it's obvious that it's nothing but another long incoherent...

Lol. Just so you know... I don't think anyone takes you seriously because all you do is go on long incoherent rants. It's really strange.

Dumb luck I guess. I should go buy a lottery ticket. Been pretty lucky lately I guess. We just put our house on the market on Tuesday. We had 7 showings Tuesday and 2 offers that night. Stalled until Wednesday night so more people could get in for showings. Ended up accepting an offer that was...

You know what? That's a good question. I guess we'll see what my next bill says. I forgot to ask them about the DVR, HD, and regional sports fees. All I know is that she said after taxes and fees it will be $56. We'll see I guess. Wouldn't shock me if they tacked that crap on top of that and...

I didn't know Best Buy did this. I might have to look into that. We just put our house in Urbandale on the market yesterday afternoon, and we bought a home in Ankeny. I'll have to get a new set up when we get there. Would be nice knowing someone who actually knew what they were doing was setting...

The problem is our modem is in my wife's office in the top level of our house, and my big screen is in my man cave in the basement. My wife is a Graphic Designer so she needs to have a consistent connection. Which means sometimes the quality suffers in the basement. So I think the answer to your...

I think it goes to show how much they are hurting. They are desperate to keep people. I was 100% ready to cut the cord. I didn't expect them to go that low, but when they did it was a no brainer. Especially with my WIFI. It works great sometimes and then others it's unreliable. That would have...

You know what's funny? I called DirectTv a couple weeks ago and canceled. I said I want to cancel a week from today (so the next Wednesday). I thought I'd give myself a week to get something else lined up like Playstation Vue. I explained to them why I was canceling and everything. My...

Well to be fair Mike missed a lot of late game free throws. At least it felt that way, but clearly he didn't handle clutch situations well. The ones in the ISU game were by far the most memorable for me though. It's naive to say the crowd doesn't have an impact... or just plain stupid.

Agreed man. When a player like White specifically remembers a memory like that... you know it matters.

I see what you did there.

Hawks were up 7 at half, and pretty much had the lead the entire game until the end. White had a monster game. I think he had 25 pts and 17 rebounds. I believe that's the game where he said afterwards "I'm just tired of losing to teams that I know we're better than". Had to be a tough loss for...

Yeah that's nuts. Helps me put this in perspective. It's easy to criticize a kid for missing free throws like that, but good lord. I can't imagine that kind of pressure. I can pretend like I'd be able to handle it, but who am I kidding? There's nothing like actually being in that situation with...
