Cats and Clowns Kickoff the Season

They should call the new injury timeout assessment the ‘Franklin’ rule.

The game in Ames feels like a loss.

Perfect win. Clowns will win again next week.
Then Iowa will put a nice blemish on their record in L-Ames.

The game in Ames feels like a loss.

Not sure how you get that. That was some of the worst football I've watched since... Last season I guess. But man, that does not look like a good team.

 

[Zstatman]

Good W for ISU

I was thinking, what great exposure this was for the Big 12. The only game on, first game of the season.

I'd bet all the teams and fans in the Big 12 footprint plus Hawkeyes would have eyes on this game.

After our sixteen day trip there last fall I can assure you that the Irish truly walk to the beat of their own drum. Hearing the stories of the harsh conditions, rocky landscapes, how some parts of the country near Galway and Donegal didn't have power grids until the 1970's, not to,mention the social and political history with Great Britain which still evolves in the northern part of Ireland.

By the way we found the Antrim coast of Northern Ireland to be by far the most scenic part of the country and that's saying something. But it's more scenic than the Ring of Kerry, the cliffs of Moher, Slieve League, the Gap of Dunloe or any of that stuff (spectacular as all of it was)

We honeymooned there in 2003.

Over the course of two weeks, we went south out of Dublin, down to Kilkenny, then Waterford and over to Cork. We stayed along the southern and western coasts and spent time at the Dingle peninsula before flying out of Shannon.
