OSU Paper: Iowa Must Be Destroyed

"...We must remind them that they failed in their glorious campaign. They must remember that they are second-class in their own conference, and an afterthought in the nation's conscious. If they gain a first down, we have to sack whatever fly-over state yahoo they have back there..."

A Pointless But Wonderfulish Website to Validate the Internet's Continued Existence

Yeah... so this really doesn't have anything to do with Iowa, football, or really, sports in general at all. I just... I dunno. Whatever. The Inernets, ya know?

DJK Interview With Fellow Student

[Bumped. And Bucket, man, whenever you're running low on a word count, quote liberally. come on, did college teach you nothing?!--OPS]

Someone posted this on one of the other Hawkeye-related sites, and I thought it would be good to share here. Nothing really new or revealing, just a nice little interview.

Enjoy.

Here's a great question and response about Erik Campbell:

DNS: How has wide receiver coach Erik Campbell influenced or impacted your game?

DJK: (He has been a) major, major influence. I can’t even put it into words. He’s basically taken over my entire life as a football player, a student, a role model to others, and being a good citizen. He’s always preaching to me, if you live well and do well as a student, then you will play well. There are so many examples of that from this last year, and it all goes hand-in-hand with what he says. Not to mention the guy has proved it all the way across the board. He’s one person I can honestly say wants to see me do well. He’s one of the best things to ever happen to me. I’m just embracing the opportunity, and feel blessed to be able to work with him.

Hawkeye Arrested in Road Rage Incident

Lang

3-20-09

An Iowa football player has been arrested after his alleged involvement in a road rage incident earlier this year.

Starting defensive end Adrian Jarrell Clayborn is accused of assaulting a cab driver just before 2am on January 20th. He turned himself in at Iowa City Police headquarters just after 2:45 Friday morning.

According to Iowa City Police, Clayborn was stuck in a traffic jam near the corner of Bowery and South Johnson Streets when the cab driver honked at Clayborn, leading him to exit his vehicle and confront the man. The 20-year-old St. Louis native then reached in the driver’s side window and struck the man in the face, causing minor injuries. The attack finally stopped when Clayborn’s friend dragged him back to his vehicle.

Clayborn, whose listed address is on East Washington Street, is charged with Assault Causing Bodily Injury, a Serious Misdemeanor punishable by a maximum of one year in jail and a $1,500 fine.

------------------------------

Ok, seriously, road rage? In Iowa fucking City? Is there really even enough traffic there to become legitimately jammed? I could see if he were maybe from like, Quasqueton or some such tiny place and was freaking out at all that "city traffic," but he's from St. Louis! An actual major-ish metropolitan area with horrible traffic! WTF???

That smell wafting over from Ames? Desperation.

Appropos of nothing: I miss Bill Hicks

Bucketochicken — Sat, 31 Jan 2009 04:21:49 -0000

It will be 15 years next month since Bill Hicks died of pancreatic cancer.

He was 32.

Thank you, Bill, for everything. It's all just a ride...

The World is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real, because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round, and it has thrills and chills and is very brightly colored, and it's very loud. And it's fun, for a while.

Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they've begun to question, 'Is this real, or is this just a ride?', and other people have remembered, and they've come back to us and they say 'Hey, don't worry. Don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride.' and we KILL THOSE PEOPLE.

It's Still THE HAWKEYE STATE!
