    Oliver Martin Derangement Syndrome

    It's your claim that he didn't see any action last year? You might want to be more precise with your words. And to claim nobody reached out to him in the portal is disingenuous at best. If no team did, that's likely because it was obvious where he was going.

    Preseason USA Today Coaches Poll: ISU #24

    I think Minnesota is underrated and undervalued. After the Illinois debacle they fired Robb Smith, the hapless DC, and the season completely turned around. They beat Purdue by 31, Wisconsin by 22, and Georgia Tech by 24.

    9am Kickoff

    One of my favorite Viking t.v. viewing experiences was while celebrating a birthday in Hawaii. I was in the hotel bar at 7:00 a.m. that Sunday morning with my brother-in-law and a tall glass of Bailey's with the game on the big screen.

    Iowa Football Recruiting

    Why do you keep using the phrase "unbiased voters"? You don't have a firm grip on reality, or you're completely naive, if you think voters are unbiased. Or, as is almost always the case, you're just doing a bit and you don't believe a word you're writing.

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    I don't know...this one felt a little "Top Gun"-ish.

    When does that video show Jimmy Chitwood hitting the shot against South Bend?

    The Athletic: State of the Program Iowa State

    Well, perhaps because you referenced the articles "that we got for free a year ago." Who is the "we" you referred to?

    The Athletic: State of the Program Iowa State

    Do you feel like you're owed free content? That's a strange sense of entitlement.

    T-Wolves would love to rid themselves of Jeff Teague.

    Isaiah Moss Transferring

    Huh? That's a lazy response. Moss was recruited by and signed by Kansas. Therefore, because you are firm in claiming that Moss isn't talented, you either believe: A) Bill Self is an idiot and doesn't know much about basketball. B) Kansas has declined to the point that they are taking...

    Isaiah Moss Transferring

    Well, that makes sense. Kansas makes a regular habit of recruiting and signing untalented basketball players.

    Per Jon Miller Iowa>Bucky

    This has gone on long enough. If you can't think logically, then try something else for a hobby. In the NFL, voters for the MVP award are allowed to vote for only one player. Are you suggesting that there's no such thing as second place in the MVP race because voters are only allowed to vote...

    Ferentz's Emphasis on the ISU Game

    I encourage you to consider proofreading your work. That means you don't hit "Enter" as fast as you can, instead pausing a moment or two to look again at what you've written. You might come across as someone more educated instead of intellectual flotsam.

    Ferentz's Emphasis on the ISU Game

    Huh? How much time does it take you to view something with disdain and contempt and then move on to something more interesting?

    Ferentz's Emphasis on the ISU Game

    Asked and answered already, my friend. Minnesota fans view Hawkeye fans with disdain and contempt, nothing more. Minnesota fans spend almost zero time thinking about all things Hawkeye. There is only team that Gopher fans feel passionately about, and that's Wisconsin. This is because of the...

    Ferentz's Emphasis on the ISU Game

    My man, you're scoring with some solid jabs. But you keep dropping your gloves when you say FCS. You've done that twice now.

    Iowa -7 vs ISU

    [sigh] Everything was going along quite nicely, then another "Look at me!" sinkhole right in the middle of a pleasant conversation.

    Iowa -7 vs ISU

    Way, way, way out of bounds. Bringing race into this without indication of this being race related is absurd, and is harmful to situations that actually are race related. You need to shut it down for awhile.
