I don't. Nebraskans are some of the nicest people in the country. Great fans.

Minnesotans? Worthy of the H. Fans are awful.

I've watched that video a million times, always with a happy sigh.
I'll watch that video a million more times, at least, before I die.

What issues does Iowa have to sort out?

Matthew @matthewii.bsky.social · 21d

It was not the correct call, but like Row the Boat, PJ is great at sticking to his talking points.....

Oh, I am not countering with they can't win. I'm just saying, comparing a cadaver to the previous few QBs, I'd take my chances with the cadaver.....

Matthew @matthewii.bsky.social · Oct 10

That's a really low bar.....

Thank God for Bernie. Context is King. 30 years and the main topic among too many Cardinal fans is PAYROLL.

Willson Contreras wrapped up his third season in St. Louis on Monday night. In light of the — however slight — possibility that he’s played his last game as a Cardinal, worth noting that he has more than held up his end of the free agent bargain:

Contreras conversion to first base has been one of Cardinals few highlights

But he’s been shutdown with an injury as the team limps toward it’s weekend finale.

The homerism is off the charts.

You continue to do great work, Bruce. So glad you're with The Athletic!

This is awesome, kudos to the TCU marketing department. In fairness, highlighting that Cowherd and Bayless are idiots is a low bar.....

First DVR Monday of 2025 is up. What did we learn about the rest of the Hawkeyes not wearing #11?

Leistikow's DVR Monday: Mark Gronowski aside, what did we learn in Iowa football's opener?

Going back at the film from Iowa's 34-7 win vs. Albany, the defense showed some impressive signs. Also, how did the explosive plays turn out?

I've been a #Hawkeyes fan for 50 years, and a grad for 37...quite sure I've never enjoyed, or cheered harder for a Hawkeye athlete, than Jay Higgins. Congratulations young man, you did it!

Welp. Knew the "all healthy" designation couldn't last, right?

Sources informed Matt Zenitz and I that Iowa WR Reece Vander Zee sustained a freak foot injury and is expected to miss a month. Vander Zee was a popular breakout candidate following a strong offseason and fall camp:

Iowa Football: WR Reece Vander Zee expected to miss month following foot injury

The Hawkeyes were dealt their first true blow to the 2025 season on Thursday afternoon when 247Sports' Matt Zenitz and myself were informed that Iowa wide receiver Reece Vander Zee is expected to miss...

I'm not sure *checks notes* but it appears that's the only play their D made that night.
