Red Baron 4-cheese is the all-time king.

Gala. By far.

Missing games? Who are we talking about, Alou or Drew? Would you like Drew if he stopped walking? I'd like Drew with he played more games. He's as soft as Charmin. Here's a guy who just doesn't fully use his talent. Too true. I'm tired of players being so human. A real major leaguer would shrug off things like broken hands.

28-24 OSU. Michigan's still in this.

It's McCarney's last game, I should have figured the season would end with ISU winning and Iowa losing.

Wow, I totally dig your new avatar. Gracias.

Does this make anyone else feel better about DeRosa's deal?

Dude just can't catch a break. I don't know if saying he "can't catch a break" is the right thing to say in this situation. sar·casm n. 1. A form of wit that is marked by the use of sarcastic language and is intended to make its victim the butt of contempt or ridicule.

Dude just can't catch a break. Was he the guy that was caught stealing from his teammates? That was Christopher Hobdy. Also, 118 of the 130 bags were found in his underwear.

Something tells me the sting of trading away the 2006 NL ROY just got a little worse.

Isn't that what we do best? Get excited in the off-season only to be disappointed by reality?

Why not? Everyone else has this year.

If they're so smart why does mine yank out half his hair on a daily basis?

Can't wait for the Drew Tate experiment to end. Christensen please. Also, this year I'm asking Santa to get Iowa a defense. Personally I dont see how anyone could want to see Tate go. It's been rough at times this year, but Christensen hasn't proved a thing - Tate has. and Christensen just got picked as I typed this. What Iowa really needs are recievers who can catch the ball not named Douglas. When your backup QB is now a starting WR at the end of the season, you know it's bad. Tate is statistically worse as a 3rd year starter than he was as a 1st year starter. Sure he has a young receiving core, but Iowa has never been blessed with what I would consider good receivers. Solid at times, maybe, but the problems with this offense fall on Tate just as much as anyone. You're right that Christensen hasn't proven anything yet. Yet being the key word. Tate's ego has stunted any growth that should have been taking place over the past couple of seasons, and it's time for him to go. This season is lost, and Christensen is the key to the team's success over the next 3 years. He needs to be given a chance. You call Hinkle solid? I call him pretty damn good. Tate doesn't have a receiving core, he has a receiver. Chandler, Brodell, Grigsby - the three of them combined haven't done better than Douglas, a freshmen, alone. Tate has been out there injured most of the year, with little help from his line or targets, but he hasn't said a word about it. Christensen is going to get plenty of chances to start, starting next year. This game is over, this season is over, let Tate finish the game. You don't throw the face of Iowa Football for the last 3 years under the bus so the new guy can get a couple snaps. Amazing how fast people turned on Tate and Young this year, all they did was play oft-injured with little help, and not say a word about it. Tate barks at people on the field, but he never calls a guy out to the press - and with how pathetic some of our seniors have been, they deserve it. I suppose Ferentz needs to take a page out of the Baker handbook and blame injuries more.

Bottom line, IsoD is good. Now back to Vernon Wells.

This just in, Iowa continues to suck.

I agree, but ya gotta lose one of the redundant speedsters. Pagan or Bynum have to go, preferably both. check that. Bynum definitely has to go. Pagan I could go either way with. I'd also lose Marquis off the bottom of the list and put the other Japanese pitcher, and Padilla, ahead of Lilly et al. Bynum needs to go even if our speed game consists of Yadier Molina's running the bases. Pagan plz.
