GazetteOnline.com : Parker out for Arizona, return uncertain

Wed, 15 Sep 2010 04:31:51 +0000

In any event, it sounds like Norm is suffering a bit. Perhaps the best medicine would be a Hawkeye victory Saturday night. Or should I say Sunday morning?

Marc, How long has Norm had diabetes? Is he Type I or II?

I can't imagine you using the word "dawg." I dare you to say it on the next KCRG-Gazette webcast.

Doc, is the conference still planning a nine-game slate in the near future? Will Iowa/Wisconsin be protected if that happens?

Gosh, Mike, I feel better already. I really do!

The driver of the truck looks like the loneliest man in the world. Outside of Koeppel's family, I'm bet no one was more relieved that Josh escaped with minor injuries.

Glad he's okay.

I'd be good with this as well.

I have the top two teams in one division and the next best four in the other. So what if Penn State has to come east two or thee times a year. I'm guessing they fly to most of their road games anyway. As you recognize, the problem with your divisions is Wisconsin. They get screwed. No one gets screwed in my set-up.

Setting the splitting of Mich/OSU nonsense aside, I defy anyone to come up with better divisions than this: OSU Mich MSU IU Purdue Illinois Penn State Nebraska Iowa Wisconsin Minnesota Northwestern The main rivalry forsaken here is Illinois/Northwestern. They can still, however, have a protected rivalry game. AND, they will have the chance to play "for the conference championship and the right to go to the Rose Bowl." Chuckle.

This is crap. And it's OSU and Michigan's fault. Besides, is a Mich/OSU Big Ten Championship going to be that much more watched than any other Big Ten Championship matchup? It's just not right to split Iowa/Minnesota/Wisconsin. And Aksarben, for that matter.

I'm guessing Joe Pa had a C. Diffiicile infection. Not fun, especially when you're 83. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/c-difficile/DS00...

GazetteOnline.com : DJK: He likes to communicate, he likes to win, and he really likes Iowa

DJK is awesome. If you buy BHGP's theory (link: http://www.blackheartgoldpants.com/2010/7/28/1592... ) then it's time to set voices of the DJK's of the program free. I don't know if I buy the theory or not. If I buy the theory, I don't know if following through with its proposal is worth the cost. But it is thought-provoking. Go Hawks! Will the articles from the magazine be available online; like TK4HAWKS, I too no longer live in Iowa.

Could you also post it in RSS format so I can listen to it on my non-apple phone? Great first effort. Even if both of your predictions were wrong. McCaffery will find someone better than Uthoff, right? Right?
