Other healthy players quitting?

College sports are becoming a joke, that's for sure.

Maybe we should ask the NFL owners to pay the schools, who then pay the players. After all, colleges are developing the players & feeding the NFL teams with players.

It's ridiculous that a booster like Brad Heinrichs has to beg Iowa fans to donate money to SWARM.
It is absolutely ridiculous that the current situation requires fans to fork over money for organizations like SWARM.

At this point, college football is a farm system for the NFL. Kids get drafted for baseball out of high school, right? Why not allow that for basketball and football players as well? I have no doubt a team like the Detroit Pistons would have invested money in (i.e) Cooper Flagg coming out of high school.

Twitter/X alternative Bluesky

How do you not understand this data:
1. democrats generally have a higher education so they seek out information.
2. twitter had the vast majority of this market cornered.
3. that forces D's to use it.
4. Eloon now forces everyone to see his batshit stuff and other rightwing propaganda.
5.. the fact R's went up is because confirmation bias. eloon pushes crap the R's agree with, so they've flocked to the place to feel good.
I understand the data, the user base of X now reflects the U.S. population.
Twitter suppressed conservatives.
Elon bought Twitter and ended the suppression.
Democrats flocked to bluesky because they want an echo chamber to ‘feel good’

Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)

Yeah, that's a great point. Now that I reflect on past actions. I remember America being a shithole in 2016. Then someone made it great again from 2017-2021. Then it became a shithole again. Now, someone stated they'll make it great again, I'll believe them, because they stated it and the past actions of doing it.

Thanks Hans, I always learn something from you.
I love your sarcasm…it’s so refreshing.

Fellow atheists/agnostics with young kids. What’s your play?

yes, humanoid species have evolved to where we are today

other than that, not really sure what you're asking

How come out of the billions of living organisms since the big bang, there has only been one branch or line (humanoids) that have evolved mentally to where we are today.

That's my question.

Every living thing on the planet got its start from the same point billions of years ago and the earth seems plenty big enough to support more than one mentally advanced species no?

Like why isn't there was some 4 legged creature in Asia that has also developed a written language or figured out how to start a fire?

*****Iowa vs Utah St Game Thread*****

I will be glad when the additional playing years given to players because of the Covid pandemic are over. You realize that C. J. Fredrick is still playing for U. of Cincinnati. That's 3 years with Iowa, I think 2 years with Kentucky, and now 2 years with Cincinnati. Unbelievable!
CJ's best season was his RS-FR year. Too many injuries, and he never was especially quick before them. So far he's a role player this year.

State football playoffs begin tonight

Because it's not easy...
really, how does st. albert do compared to the council bluffs teams historically, Heelan, Assumption?
How did the iowa city schools do when Marv cook was at regina? Where did those good Iowa city boys go?
How does Xavier stack up compared to their cedar rapids peers? I'm guessing no school in metro des moines is switching places with Dowling....
Football requires more kids so it is a bit harder than basketball and baseball. But what do the rankings of those schools like in those sports public/private???

ISU tickets

Sounds like my son and wife (still not getting a pic) won’t be released from the u of I till Sunday, but she has given me the green light to go to the dual if I could find a ticket. I’d be willing to buy 1-2, sit wherever, with whoever, I’d just like to see the hawks take it to the clowns.
I have one available. Email me parchypyle@gmail.com. I would sell cheap
