2005 Cap One vs 2019 Holiday: There's a huge gulf between those 2 and whatever bowl meal No. 3c would be.

Cap One was so bad multiple media paid their own money(!) to get something from a concession stand.
I texted @toddbrommelkamp.bsky.social today to see if he had a pic of the Holiday Bowl pregame meal. I remember starting to take a pic and stopping out of respect for the clearly newly runt over roadkill. I didn’t know what to tell the babies except enjoy every sandwich but not this one, tho.

"The Boat Rocker" by Terence Mann.
performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!

tell me about a book that changed you

for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

News flash for Iowans: The Aurora Borealis (northern lights) visible, at least as far south as central Iowa. Look to the north.

These are not photoshopped—my phone camera did a longer exposure of a few seconds, which makes the colors look brighter than they do with the naked eye.

Sweeping in scope but razor-sharp in focus, “Pluribus” is a star vehicle engineered for “Better Call Saul” veteran Rhea Seehorn’s idiosyncratic talents.
She stole scenes in ‘Better Call Saul.’ In her new show, she’s the star.
D.C. theater veteran Rhea Seehorn re-teams with Vince Gilligan on the dystopian drama series “Pluribus.”

Mountain Dew Baja Blast Pie: 6/10

We may have Lived Too Más. The aftertaste stayed with me for so long. I love Taco Bell, I love Mountain Dew, and I appreciate their partnership and innovation. this one isn’t for the faint of heart.

Lots of Duke's Mayo Bowl jokes by Iowa State fans on Instant Iowa tonight.

It's an odd-numbered year. That means an ACC-SEC matchup in North Carolina.

Know your bowl tie-ins, trols!

[Hawk fans, enjoy Tampa. Nothing ever changes. You know the itinerary. Beach Day traffic is a bitch.]

This'll either be another Kinnick Classic...or a classic what-if kick in the (wet) balls.

No in between.

Had he missed that, I'd have bet your house on Iowa winning.

Still possible.

No more mistakes.

That was a well-designed QB draw

Kakert and I are texting about the Outback Bowl (for obvious reasons) and he just reminded me of the time @marcmorehouse.bsky.social threatened a couple of hospitality room interlopers.

God, if those walls could talk.
