    No, but I did stay at a couple Holiday Inn Expresses.

    Keegan starting for the Kings vs the Warriors: Game One

    What really makes it hard for me to watch is all of the grabbing and holding, and the fact that all of the screens look like moving screens to me. They bring back visions of old Bobby Knight Indiana teams. And every screener seems to grab the guy he's setting the pick on. Of course, the guy...

    Keegan starting for the Kings vs the Warriors: Game One

    Just from watching this playoff series, it seems like the hardest adjustment for Keegan is on defense...especially the speed and movement of GS. He's not bad, it's just that Sac has other guys who seem to be quicker, more physical or more veteran-savvy (Barnes). I think if KM's defense was a...

    Give this pic a caption and/or boy band name

    The Four Hoarsemen, for all the yelling they do (though Fred is still an outlier in that group)

    Shateah Wetering in Portal

    As evidenced by the last line of your response, that's not pushing them out the door to me. Like I said, it's a fine line between showing them the writing on the wall and letting them decide vs. you have to leave, there's the door (or the next level, pulling a scholly or putting someone on...

    Shateah Wetering in Portal

    I'm all for being honest with players and not stringing them along, but I'm not in favor of pushing people out. It's a fine line, I know, but word spreads quickly.

    Im Not Done With Angel, And I'm Bringing It Over Here.

    So...I guess she can walk things back. Glad to see the Obamas have remained quiet.

    Influx of Transfers New for Iowa

    I do this IRL with my age. Where so many people say they are younger than they really are, I like to add a few years and hope people think, "Wow, he looks really good for his age." If I said I was 6-7 younger, they'd be wondering what happened to me.

    Combine Results

    I remember all the discussion re the tire flipping the linemen (and others) did. The point was that the bench press is pushing a weight straight out in front of you and that's not how you block or rush in football. You get the leverage and lift and push...like flipping that tire. Make that a...

    Time to Confess What You Did When You Lost Faith Against MSU

    That was the last time I bet on a individual sporting event (as opposed to MM). Right before halftime, someone bet me $5 the Hawks would blow it. "No way!" I said. "That money is as good as mine." And then...not so much. I still feel responsible.

    Time to Confess What You Did When You Lost Faith Against MSU

    About halfway through the second half, I started fast-forwarding (the first arrow on Mediacom TiVo...double time, probably). Would go to real time for a bit, watch, see the same 'ol same 'ol...ff again..go back to real time. Probably went RT for good at about 3 minutes left to see if they kept...

    Greatest Individual Game In Iowa History

    Hard to legitimately argue the ref felt threatened when he moved closer to Fran. I think it's a worse look when the assistants all have to move to restrain Fran. That looks like he can't control his emotions and is intended to be more threatening...like he thinks he's Juwan Howard or something.

    Greatest Individual Game In Iowa History

    I thought this was his emotions in check. He kept his mouth shut. What's the ref gonna do? "But he was looking at me!!" I liked when the ref stepped closer after Fran did. Maybe the guys loosened up without him in the huddle and seeing what he was doing. They definitely played differently after...

    NCAA Considering Rule Change

    Great points. Plus, if I'm reading the stats right, last year was the lowest league-wide batting average since 1968. https://www.baseball-reference.com/leagues/majors/bat.shtml Of course, I'm biased...the most enjoyable thing in baseball for me was always watching Tony Gwynn wear out pitchers...

    What do y'all think about Brian's pay cut and ultimatum announced publicly today?

    If this contract had teeth and said BF would be fired for not meeting scoring target...I'm picturing the last game of the season with BF needing one more touchdown to make his goal. Cooper is back to receive a punt with seconds left, takes it, turns the corner with nothing but green in front of...

    Will Proctor And Nwankpa Be Here Next Year?

    Ditch the verbal and add a couple more signing days? That would only work for us if schools AND collectives (other than those associated with the committed school) were prohibited from contact with players who have signed a LOI. Otherwise, the poaching would still occur and our staff would let...

    Will Proctor And Nwankpa Be Here Next Year?

    More concerning is, as someone else mentioned on one of the threads, it's not necessarily losing the 5* that is the worst part because there will always be a decent chance they go elsewhere in the end. The concern is who do you miss out on because of the 5* who verbals. The other poster...
