Sill must see TV?

[NCHawker]

Just curious if any of you will deprioritze watching the hawks this Saturday? Would you primarily watch 'the other games' and check in on Iowa ?

 

[HuckFinn]

I will be at the game. Yeah, yeah, I know…

It is my #1 priority each weekend. My wife, kids, and I make an afternoon of it with the game and tailgate type food. Something I'll miss when they're older.

Having said that, if I was home alone, I'd still be anxious for the game all day, plan my to-do list around the game, and cuss at my TV as much now as I do in any other year.

Weird question posed to gents who care enough about Iowa football to post on an Iowa message board regularly. Are there that many fair-weather fans out there? And last time I checked, we are tied for the lead in the West!!!! (which is like being tied for Best Pillow Stuffer)

Hawks could be the worst team in America and i'd tune in every week, and most would consider me a "hater"

Ia Fb hasn't must watch for me for years. I just pop the game cast and periodically check in while I game.

 

[Dadman]

Of course i will watch, and swear, and perhaps throw the remote. What the hell else am i gonna do? Leaves haven’t fallen enough to rake yet……..

 

[InGoodCo]

Haven't missed a game in close to 25 years, not going to start now. You guys really don't watch Iowa football unless they are having an outstanding year?

It is a religion.....will always watch them.

My daughter flies home for an extended weekend on Saturday. I had to make sure she was getting in early enough so I could get back to watch the game. Wouldn't miss it.

Does she wait if the flight is delayed?

It's a sickness, I even watch recorded replays if I'm at work when I get home, even a loss! My older kids know the living room is a bad place to hang out when the Hawks are losing. I'm indifferent to their plights for about two hours and don't plan any activity during the game. My wedding reception was during the Duke/Iowa NCAA game and 90% of my family was in the bar watching the game during the dancing. Yea, I'm sick....

Yes. 59 falls of watching Iowa football. A lot of bad teams but some great ones too. Even the average teams (like this one) can rise up and play well. Hoping for a good performance this Saturday.

What time does the Damn Hawk Game start

After I graduated from Dowling, I was working at Gimbel's advertising dept in Philadelphia and listened to every Hawkeye game on WHO 1040 AM

Listened to every Hawkeye football and basketball game that wasn't on TV since we moved to
Des Moines from Philadelphia

Yeah, I will be watching the Iowa @ Illinois game

 

[SmokeTownHawk]

I'll be watching on TV as usual. It's one of the things in late summer/fall that I've done since I first listened to WMT AM 600 during the 70's. Win or lose I'm there in some form or fashion.

Your Holy Pope.....please say a prayer for Petras......not to get better because that is asking to much even from you.....but a prayer he gets a nice comfy, warm seat on the bench holding a clipboard with a red hat on.

If her flight is delayed and doesn't get in until 6:00 p.m. then my wife can pick her up at the airport. I can wait until she gets home to see her. She understands.
