All kidding aside, I would assume the different dialects could be confusing though. I have a friend from near Stuttgart, he could barely converse with my other friend's grandparents, who were from Ostfriesland.
Oh, I agree he has done some good things, but he overstayed his welcome with a lot of fans. Does any non-Iowa fan think that Kirk belongs in the same breath with Woody Hayes, Bo Schembechler or Stagg?
You're making the ludicrous inference that Zelinsky started this war. Please provide your research sources that state this as fact. Putin, unprovoked, illegally invaded by force and continues to occupy 20% of Ukraine. Trump describes Putin as "smart, savvy, and a great leader". To the rest of the free world Putin is accurately described as a thug, killer, and a serial war criminal.
a long time ago my company was partnered with a german company and a marketing exec from munich (or some such significant german city) was in town. i found him next to me at the buffet and i said something to him in german (i’d learned some from tapes) and he looked completely flummoxed. he turned out to be an italian. so he worked for a german firm in germany but spoke zero german. i suppose they must have hired him for his english. csb.
Like so many other conferences, the current makeup of the Big12 is such a change from what most of us are familiar with. They are the leftover conference. I would almost feel bad for them, but the the Clone fans show up here and make fools out of themselves, so I'll get over it
Waiting for @FAUlty Gator and @binsfeldcyhawk2 to chime in to either apologize for being wrong for years or to tell us how this isn't authoritarianism, or no big deal. Again, you guys want checks and balances and Trump 100% wants to blow that up. Project 2025, or that famous red herring, wants to blow the Constitution up. I'm waiting for the both sides guys to start getting pissed off about what's about to happen to their country.
North Carolina, a basketball school who understands the economic urgency surrounding CFB, removed Mac Brown, the program’s winningest all time coach, today with time remaining on his contract. In fact, Brown said that he fully expected to return after what looks like a 7-5 finish and another bowl game appearance. That’s the difference. North Carolina isn’t content with 7-5/8-4 seasons and irrelevance on a rapidly-changing national scene. Iowa is irrelevant under KF. You can choose to ignore that all you want, but it is FACT borne out over his tenure: zero national championships, zero playoff appearances, zero conference championships, zero Heismans. He is very happy that Kinnick and this forum are filled with Kent Dorfmans. Unfortunately as Dean Wormer aptly pointed out, that’s no way to go through life.
I wonder if the karaoke was at Boozies down the road? I go there for lunch quite a bit and have also had some blurry nights there.
Across the street from Half Nelson, Great River Brewery has gone through a big remodel as well. Not a huge fan of their beer but the inside is really nice. Unrecognizable from before.
Great to hear you had a good time! As torbee mentioned, Downtown D has really made some good changes. Still a ways to go but definitely improving!
Also now that you mention it, I'm definitely getting a bfast sandwich from redband tomorrow morning. Love those things
Yes. I said that. They went from horrific to average. Big jump overall. Passing game is still horrific. Otherwise with that running game they could be well above average.
Just demonstrating how much better the offense has become this year. The passing game is still a mess. WR will surely be a high priority in the free agent period.

Sounds to me like you have a lot of lazy, fat family members. Not sure how that equates to rural Iowa being fat. If anything, sounds like you need to say rural southern and western Iowa fat because I’m from northern rural Iowa and live in eastern rural Iowa and I see more fatties in bigger cities.
Keep trying and maybe you will get it right eventually.
Every family has lazy, fat members but I think you're struggling with the fact that the data is clearly there but you refuse to accept that. The numbers support my position but not yours, simple as that. Look below, two counties are university towns, with a large number of younger people and Dubuque/Winneshiek both have colleges but there's generally a bit to do when it comes to physical activity in both. I have no explanation for Webster, but good on them.
What counties have the lowest obesity percentage?
Story: 33%
Dubuque: 33%
Johnson: 33%
Winneshiek: 34%
Webster: 34%

Mexico new President, Claudia Sheinaum, already said the country would retaliate against President Trump's new tariff proposal with Canada's Justin Trudeau expected to follow.
I don't call people that voted for Trump Republicans because even though many did, there are many that find his policies far from conservative. Do you disagree?
I really like the depth this team has and is developing. If indeed Guyton can become the backup PG - as has been mentioned by the staff as the plan - that would make a bench unit of:
Guyton
McCabe
Stremlow
Mallegni
Heiden
That’s a pretty talented group to have as a second five. And with 4 of the five being frosh, they should get better as the season goes along.
This is another area that Biden failed during '20-'24. This skirting of process should have been expected and the language should have been strengthened to remove all doubt on what requirements are to be met for incoming staff. Historical assumption was folks would comply to implied norms, this was known that it was NOT going to happen and later Presidential appointments / staff should be required to meet minimum standards of employment. Just because the idiot gets a pass due to the job title, his misfit toys were never elected and they should meet minimum requirements.
Neither side wants to have an honest conversation regarding the George Floyd riots.
1) The toxicology report likely was true
2) A bench trial likely would have produced a different result for Chauvin
3) Systemic racism and inequities in the system exist and this is what it truly was about, not Floyd.
