All good now

I'm only getting audio

Is there supposed to be video on B1G+?

Hopefully you are on the mend, Rob

I have been trying to not let myself think about how happy I might be feeling right now. It felt selfish to wish for anything other than whatever he decided. Now, as happy as I am, what I feel most is proud of not just Luka-- but the whole team. It also feels like the best Christmas gift ever...

If I were Kirk, I would see if Vivian Stringer would be interested in talking with me. She is a someone who is a Hawkeye icon, who is on record for her continued love for Iowa. She has a unique perspective of this struggle. I have recalled lately how well she handled the situation with The...

You are right about most cops. I have been a fire fighter for almost 30 years and I work alongside them every shift. It is nuanced, but the protesters are not protesting the good deeds of the good cops that you and I can see plain as day. They protest the bad cops(obviously) and they protest...

I too would love to hear his response. Rob, I have to confess that until these last few weeks, I have long calmed my inner angst over still visible racism by telling myself that it is self evident that it is aging itself out of existence. Lately that rationale just seems to fall short...

You have the start to my opinion almost verbatim. I would just add to yours this: does the typical person like Matt get as butt hurt about the contrary view of this symbolism as the typical traditionalist has reacted to the folks who hold Matt's view? Asked another way, which side displays...

Personally I would love to see the team united. I just don't feel it is fair to impose unity on a protest like this. Just because I want your heart to be in the right place, doesn't mean I should force you to pretend that it is. Not in America, at least. Kirk Ferentz just hasn't quite got...

I appreciate your effort to explore possible alternative meaning to kneeling. I think you are historically correct. I just think you are missing the mark on the protesters' intentions. All we need to do is listen to their stated intent. While most say they aren't trying to disrespect the...

Your last sentence disparages an entire culture of people distinguished primarily by their race for the purposes of your reference. That is an example of the textbook definition of racism. If I am wrong, please enlighten me.

Thank you for fleshing that out. It sheds light on something I had been unaware of. It also is very timely as the powers the be embark on redefining fair and equal. I also was hoping you hadn't intended it for Tyler or his mother.

Well said. Captured my mood of gameday.

I think you have some legitimate value to your argument. However, I also see a disconnect between what you say is the target of the "kneel" and what those kneeling actually intended. I happen to think that disconnect is problematic to the kneelers' message. Why? At first glance, even...

Good post. I like that you address the frequently moving line that divides legitimate challenging and bullying. You ask us, "are the players thinner skinned?" I think you are likely correct when you say yes. I would like to pose a related question. Are the old guard too thin skinned to...

Sincere question... Why do you include, "Assuming there are no ulterior motives"? I read that and wonder what is out there to warrant the concern. Like you, I also wish her luck and hope such an effort will take root. If you will, please share the impetus of your concern.

So do you suppose Garbar and Kurt stapled fliers to power poles around the country to solicit as many Hawks as possible to concoct thematically coordinated stories to unjustly accuse one of our star coaches of this stuff... you know, so they could then throw him under the bus when it results in...

Hey, Rob. Your kids are going to be able look back at this time and remember that their dad took on a very difficult issue head-on and professionally. You are serving our Hawkeyes. I am proud of you.
