I genuinely hope we can come together as a country. It should be obvious to see MAGA has been pushing us vs them, toxic culture.

There will always be differences in beliefs and that’s ok. The Right needs to remove MAGA to move forward. If you can’t see that now, I’m not sure there is any hope for you.

Is the POTUS calling them criminals?

What crimes did they allegedly commit according to Joe Biden?

Apologies for the lack of content the last couple days. Experienced some flu-like symptoms on the first night and was hit with food poisoning last night after getting home from broadway. Nashville apparently hates my guts 😂

Hopping on a pod with the Missouri guys and then hoping to get some stuff out later today.

I just watched the hilites of the usc vs Tx A&M bowl game. USC just loaded with receivers, how did they go 6-6 this year. And the other thought is how can Iowa not get at least one stud 6-3 type fast receiver with great moves, fast and with great hands?

This is the key to a much better hawk passing attack as one receiver like that who can make 6-8 grabs a game, draw double coverage at times which opens up your other receivers is a huge need.

Yes, we need the QBs who can put the ball on them also but I think that part is starting to materialize.

Maybe Buie and Howard become those types of receivers but the portal might be the quickest way to find one

His girlfriend has already enrolled. I kid. He wants to coach again. Consulted with KF.

Not like your first team D and O is lighting it up. Down 32 start of the fourth.
Give him a chance, what's the worst that can happen? You lose by 40 instead of 30?

I have not yet but am hoping to get some gifts next week. Cash wealth.

You?

I was researching the effect of Iowa farm runoff and the huge dead zone in the Gulf of Mexi..America and found this gem updated a week ago. Floridians should also be concerned with the pollution of nitrates from the sugar cane farms.

Increasing use of nitrogen-based fertilizer over the last half-century is putting Americans' health at risk. Excess nitrate in drinking water increases the risk of cancer, birth defects and thyroid disease.

The Environmental Protection Agency limits how much nitrate can be present in drinking water: a maximum of 10 milligrams per liter. But growing research ties serious health risks to nitrate levels far below that federal limit.

The EPA has spent more than two decades urging states to contain the runoff from Midwest farms that flows into rivers, sources for drinking water, and eventually the Gulf of Mexico. There, the pollution contributes to a dead zone where fish and other wildlife can't survive.

It's a critical concern in Iowa, which has one of the highest rates of nitrate pollution in the United States. Iowa also has the second-highest cancer rate in the country. Studies have linked high nitrate levels in Iowa water to kidney, bladder, thyroid, and other cancers.

Aside from your own farts, which everyone loves.

My Sorel house slippers are about due for a run through the washing machine. They emit a bit of a musky odor somewhat reminiscent of a sour beer. It is objectively an "odor" but I actually kind of appreciate it.

Any other nominees?

I do like Limburger cheese, as well.

🤔

Apologies for being a little bit tardy on this one.

Me(age 13), my younger brother (age 11), and my dad went to an Iowa vs. ISU meet in 1981. It was in the Fieldhouse and it was packed! The weather was horrible. The Iowa Highway Patrol updated the weather in between each match. The meet was almost over and Lou Banach was wrestling Wayne Cole. Cole took Banach to his back, but then Banach was given an injury timeout (I think it was an ankle problem). At that point we thought the match was over so we were leaving to get to our car. Before we got outside there was a gigantic roar and we ran back just in time to see Banach pin Cole!

I watched many meets on PBS, but this was the first one in person.

3-80 wasn't there yet so we traveled on Highway 218. It took us two hours to get home(usually it took us around 30/40 minutes. We lived in Cedar Rapids.). My mom was not happy with my dad for taking us out in a blizzard!

My dad also tapped meets when they were on PBS and would mail them to me when I lived out of state. I was a wrestling junky and I could not wait to get my next fix!

This is the story that got me hooked on all things Iowa Hawkeye Wrestling.

Sadly my dad is no longer with us. He died from Parkinson's and dementia some years ago.

I would appreciate any donations. Right now I am sitting at $1065.00 and in first place in the team standings. I would love to get at least $1500.00 and more would be awesome.

Thank you!

In a game where Brendan Sullivan could have solidified himself as the man to beat for Iowa's starting QB position in the spring, he and the #Hawkeyes came up short.

Iowa needs another portal quarterback -- and they need one soon.

STORY:

So who's coming to Nashville? Low 60s and partly sunny on Monday.

I was going to work from home that day, but may come into my office downtown to people watch.
