    Story in Shannon Suspension with KF Quotes

    Frankly, given what was going on at PSU, I think the punishments listed in bold are still too light. I would have been fine giving them a 5 year death penalty and let them try to rebuild with that legacy.

    Jack won't be a Hawkeye

    He can also stipulate trial on the minutes. Court considers the evidence presented in the filings, defendant offers no argument or evidence and court convicts. The conviction is not proof of liability and cannot be entered as evidence the same was an admission can. In the civil proceeding, they...

    Fitz In The Pitz

    I got the impression he thought it might not be severe enough.

    If it's on Twitter it must be true right?!

    There is really nothing criminally or civilly that will punish the driver, regardless of who he/she is, more than having the memory of what happened.

    If it's on Twitter it must be true right?!

    Well, sadly, it may explain some of the talk about this incident. This link is an update on the one posted above. https://www.kcrg.com/2023/06/05/iowa-national-guard-soldier-dead-after-may-22nd-car-crash/ A lot has been made of the fact that the driver has not been identified and a request by...

    Major ISU Shakeup

    Even without Anthony, they obviously felt the team had something special going. If they thought the team had a chance to go deep in the tourney, why risk having the 'powers that be' come back and nullify that run b/c Iowa let Anthony keep playing. I get what you're saying about the...

    Iowa withheld some athletes from competition

    Based on casual observations of athlete behavior, including Tiger Woods' recent feminine product faux pas, I'm guessing golfers. I'd imagine they also lead in betting on their own performances, just not commercially. "Bet you $1000 I put this on the green."

    What was your first car?

    I met my wife right after I got the first Jag, but it actually had the opposite effect. It made her reluctant to go out with me b/c she figured I was probably a pretentious pr!ck. Clearly, she was confusing Jag owners with BMW owners, but it all worked out okay. As for the continental kit...

    What was your first car?

    My Caprice was 214" (17.83 ft) and 4080 lbs. Big, but not so much compared to what I drove in high school. In high school I drove my dad's 1978 Chrysler New Yorker (until I got that Magnum). It was 232.7" (19.39 ft) and 4832 lbs. 400 ci V8 w/4 bbl. Picture this in a two-door...straight up...

    What was your first car?

    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.

    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...
