I was so energized by the first half, a modern offense, a QB making plays with his feet and arm, signature Iowa with great special teams and good defense the second half was everything everyone has been complaining about for years. I had hope than I had despair no I’m worried

In an Off Topic thread recently a poster on here said something like "there arent any militias, white supremacist groups". Well read this account a someone who infiltrated, recorded and documented a few of these groups and the law enforcement, and other types who are in these groups. They are a scary bunch of wankers (nice word for them) who want to take matters into their own hands and the laws and justice be damned.

Health warning labels on alcohol should be updated to include a cancer risk warning, the surgeon general said Friday, adding that recommended limits for alcohol consumption should also be reassessed, given the increased cancer risk.

Alcohol consumption is the third-leading preventable cause of cancer in the United States, Vivek H. Murthy said in an advisory. It contributes to 100,000 cancer cases and 20,000 related deaths each year, he added.

“Higher alcohol consumption increases alcohol-related cancer risk, yet only 45% of American adults are aware that consuming alcohol increases their risk of developing cancer,” Murthy wrote on X.
Any mandatory changes to the health warning labels would need to be approved by Congress. President-elect Donald Trump, who will be inaugurated on Jan. 20, has announced Janette Nesheiwat, a family and emergency medicine physician and onetime Fox News contributor, as his pick for the next surgeon general.
In his advisory, Murthy described health warning labels as “well-established and effective approaches to increasing awareness of health hazards and fostering behavior change.”
He noted that the current label statements, which warn about drinking alcohol during pregnancy and the impact of alcohol on driving a car or operating machinery, have not been updated since 1988.

"Judge Juan Merchan said Trump can appear in person or virtually for the sentencing, and that he won't order Trump jailed."

"Merchan said that "a sentence of an unconditional discharge appears to be the most viable solution to ensure finality and allow Defendant to pursue his appellate options," but he would not grant Trump's request to vacate the verdict."

A long-deceased boss I had about 25 years ago (a retired professor) was convinced the have-nots would be coming over the wall for the haves before too long. He also argued that we wouldn’t be able to build walls high enough.

Leaving aside that we just elected a billionaire who seems intent on stocking his administration with fellow billionaires, thoughts on whether this is a realistic possibility?

A bit frustrating the the conference schedule hasn't been announced for next season. I have to work some weekends so I'm trying to make some plans for next season. Anyone have any insight as to when it might be announced?

It took me awhile to process this and post it to HBOT, but last Tuesday I was driving on the highway and a freaking Tesla blew by me on the right side like I was standing still (I was doing 70 mph), hit a retaining wall, and bounced back into the traffic lanes hitting the car in front of me. Both vehicles started spinning and by the grace of God I threaded the needle and wasn't involved in the accident.
This isn't the first time a highway crash happened right in front of my eyes and I avoided becoming part of the crash. At least two other times in the past five years.

Am I lucky or unlucky? Should I stop driving before my luck runs out?

Help me process this HBOT. TIA.

Anyone else watching?

Huge chunks of the field are coming up on nearly every play. Sod lines and topdressing sand still very much visible. There should be zero football played on this surface.

Out of Fran's availability this morning -- Owen Freeman will be back for Iowa's matchup with Wisconsin tomorrow.

Only the one Hawkeye Bacon poster who I shall not say his name actually believed that free speech bullshit.

New on the Twitters: Negative content about public figures will be punished by the platform. LOL. Convenient.

But watching women's basketball without Caitlin Clark is like watching women's basketball.

Anyone else love this game? It's fun because I can cheer for both teams.

Navy's running QB is impressive. I'd like to think that's how Sully can look if he can stay healthy.
