A reminder. If not for the Hall of Fame's decision to shorten player eligibility on the BBWAA ballot from 15 years to 10 years Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens likely would already be in the Hall.

That change from 15 to 10 happened soon after Bonds and Clemens joined the ballot.

Leo Sutherland's daughter used to wait tables at the IHOP in Cedar Rapids.

We'll see if the Cubs can out "we tried" the Pirates when Schwarber inevitably signs with one of the few teams actually spending money.

Iowa-Vanderbilt is matchup of two great cover teams. Hawkeyes are 8-3-1 against the spread, Commodores 9-2-1. Vandy is a 4-point favorite.

Oregon is favored by 20.5 points vs. James Madison.

Movie you've watched more than six times with a gif. Easy mode: no Stars (either War or Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.

My 2 year old son, a few weeks into potty training:

Today's decision by the selection committee should mean the end of the weekly CFP shows.


What was the point?

The Big 12 conference is issuing a $500,000 institutional fine to Iowa State and Kansas State for opting out of their bowl games.

Two years ago, Curt Cignetti arrived, grabbed a mic and said Purdue, Michigan and Ohio State suck.

Two years later, he's beaten all of them and won the Big Ten.

This is so cool.

Tonight, we are all Hoosiers.

Onion. Singular.

I can’t take Fox Sports seriously. They have Bill Raftery and Connor Onions on their payroll and don’t pair them together???

Wagon.

Cyclone men's hoops team is taking out its fan base's collective football angst on Purdue today.

Minus the "meal"

Again, the Outback always knew what it was. These guys have to be here. We're not the Ride Bowl. Get them drunk and let's have fun. Here's a cigar.

I was still a nervous flyer at that point. Major regret.

The that sponsorship ended after the first 2 trips.

One of the first 2. I didn't know her well at the time but I recall it. She may have flown in the Red Baron biplane that same trip

They misspelled his name!

[Iowa did the same thing when Fran was hired]

I did not have Matt Rodgers' dad coming out of retirement to coach Iowa's rival. What a coup for Jamie Pollard.

And their fans didn't want him. Amazing.

The Outback knows what it is. Someone needed to put the TaxSlayer in its place and that someone was you.

The man pours a stiff drink and tells a hell of a story.

We called him from Jacksonville on New Year's Eve the same night Marc almost threw a TaxSlayer committee dude off the balcony.

Doll House Dollars are not legal tender, especially if something is listed as being "market price"

Pollard is smart and has run this drill billions of times. Campbell (you know, if this happens) brought the program so much value. If McCarney is ISU’s Hayden, then Campbell is its KF. I’m not sure Gene Chizik wore the colors at his condo. Paul Rhoads was entertaining. Best physical comedy coach.

I legitimately feel for ISU fans. I thought they had their Ferentz. This sucks.
