People of a certain age will be blown away when they learn that Garfield and Morris are one and the same.

It was a great show. He pretty much said, we’re between albums, so we’re going to play whatever the hell we want.

The full band Foxes in the Snow songs sound very different. Very cool. Bury Me and Eileen especially.

Heard it last night in Iowa City. It was a phenomenal setlist.

This second half whistle has been about the most predictable thing ever.

Big Ten refs (refs in general) love to get super touchy in second halves after physical first halves like tonight's.

Brutal. The Hawkeyes were making the most of their physical defense.

It’s rich reading this as I watch Mara shove Alvero in the back on the rebound.

It is whiplash going from Fran thinking that it was illegal to call a timeout to Ben thinking that they regenerate.

Stats like this are not sustainable. Iowa is going to need to hit some shots.

This is like when they fired Jan and Michael took his name out of consideration for the corporate job out of solidarity.

It is maddening to watch so much talent on USC not play well together.

It only makes Iowa's loss out there all the more frustrating.

Back of the napkin math here...

The Bears trade Moore -- I have him valued at $17M -- and shed a $28M contract.

And then you factor in the value of the second-round pick swap for a fifth...

The Bears went +$11M on Moore and +$8.3M on the pick swap.

That's a robbery, folks.

So you think giving up a 2nd (with a 5th coming back) is a bit much?

update here:

1. the runners who were misled are getting the full prize money πŸ™‚πŸ‘βœ…
2. the story is that a cop got hit by a car, the cops assigned to the race left to go respond to that, another cop filled in for them and thought he was supposed to direct traffic away from that incident

What the fight for UNC’s Dean Dome says about the future of college sports An online petition organized by the Committee for a South Campus Arena has over 37,000 signatures to keep the Dean Dome on campus.

Other than the nostalgia angle, UNC and Iowa are in pretty similar situations with outdated 40 year old arenas.
