Joe Biden on Wednesday delivered remarks at the White House Conference on Women’s Health Research.

Biden told the attendees that doctors opened up the top of his head twice and couldn’t find a brain.

Joe Biden had multiple brain surgeries in the 1980s after suffering two brain aneurysms.

^^^^^ And the Democrats on this board still claim he has always been a man with an impressive mind.

Penix time!

There's going to be a movie about your life.

What actor or actress would play you?

Me?

I'll go with Edward Norton. I've been told I look like him.





If for some reason Ed wouldn't take the part.

I'll settle for Pete.

It is great to be an Iowa Wrestling fan.

Go Hawks!

Beth Goetz (probably): "I demand that Iowa be excluded. Thank you."

At this point, I think it's clear the Payton is struggling this year. He's had a couple of good games, played decently against Northwestern and Michigan, but really fell apart against Utah St and Iowa St. This is supposed to be the leader of the team and right now, he has the 3rd best efficiency rating and is shooting 31% from 3 (27% against top 100 teams). I hope he can turn it around because he might be hurting his draft stock if his season keeps going this way.

The players will be looking for:

* A to-be-determined percentage of media rights revenue.

* Medical care for players after their college careers have come to an end. Funds from the B1G would purchase medical insurance policies for former players that would cover the treatment of injuries from their college football careers.

If the B1G does not make significant progress on doing more for players, the players' next step could be to register as a 501(c)(5) labor organization and potentially begin the process of becoming a union.

I think one of the most disappointing things

IHG (the company that manages hotels like Holiday Inn and Crowne Plaza) lost my business forever. I was a member of their loyalty program and had a bad experience and stopped choosing them. The bad experience was Wi-Fi. I showed up at one of their properties and there was a sign at the desk saying "Our apologies, but our Wi-Fi isn't working right now. Sorry for the inconvenience."

Okay, shit breaks down and stuff happens.

Visited this property again about four weeks later. Same sign is still on the desk. Okay, so the Wi-Fi NEVER works there. The ability to get on the internet via the hotel Wi-Fi was pretty freaking important back then. I don't think I had a phone that created a hotspot.

So, I stopped staying at IHG hotels and started chasing loyalty status with Hilton brands.

Fast forward a few years... we had some work thing going on and we all were REQUIRED to stay at the same Holiday Inn property. Upon check-in, the clerk asked if I wanted to join the loyalty program. I thought I was already a member, but I didn't have any activity for a couple of years so maybe my account expired, and I drove all day to get there and I was tired and just wanted my freaking key card, so I just said, "Sure, whatever."

Fast forward a few weeks and I got an email from IHG stating that I violated the terms and conditions by creating a duplicate account, I was banned from the program, I forfeited all my points, and I am a terrible human being.

Dafuq?!!?

For this reason, IHG is dead to me. I would rather sleep in my car instead of in one of their properties.

Is any company on your "banned for life" list?

Late in the 1st quarter, its UConn 33, STATE 10!!!
I wonder how we'd do this year against Geno's People?

Have a job opportunity that will increase my salary by about 30% but requires I commute from KS to TX. Kids are currently in high school and wife doesn't want to move to Texas. Considering commuting where I can do 3-4 days in a row there and 1-2 days home. Curious if anyone has done something like this and what impacts they thought it put on their family life.

Alternatively if I move and work full time I'll make double or triple my salary. Wondering if anyone packed up their high school kids and moved.

Caught up with Langden Kitchen this afternoon to discuss his recruitment.

After picking up the offer from Iowa State on Saturday, things have blown up for him. Hawkeyes appear to be in a solid spot, though. A solid prospect with some serious upside under Kelvin Bell.

Go Drake!

Where is he? Is he in Kirk's dog house? There's no way he fell off this much. He's a game changer.

Hey Hawks!!!

I am starting a new thread for the 2025 season. It looks like the first Black and Gold game was last Thursday and a close 4-3 Black Team win over the Gold Team.

There appeared to be some recruits at the football game yesterday. It may have been mostly (or all) of the 2025 verbals.

It appears Coach Prater has left Campbell and is not the head coach at Memphis. It looks like Tristan and Kat stayed at Campbell.

Still no official fall ball schedule on the website yet. Will post it when its on the website with any info on the spring schedule as tournaments start releasing information about their tournaments.

Go Hawks!!

After a year at Western Michigan, Anterio Thompson is back in the portal.

Isnt this the plan now due to some court cases? Are we talking single or double digits of thousands of dollars?

Are all the football players getting the same amount?

Not bad. Definitely not as bad as the reviews made it sound. I liked it.

Good players are landing everywhere except Iowa. We need beef on the OL and DL; receivers, TE, CB and a good RB. If we have all this NIL, we should be standing on more than just a back qb at this point.

Dammit!
