PrintIowa Hawkeyes at West Virginia Mountaineers, Nov 28, 2008 8:00 PM CST
Just like pimping, coaching basketball ain't easy
Tonight, Iowa faces its first serious challenge of the young season, as the 5-0 Hawks draw 3-0 West Fucking Virginia in the Las Vegas Shootout. Not only is the game being broadcast on Mediacom Connections and the Hawkeye Radio Network, but it's on SportsNet New York (DirecTV channel 639) and MASN (DirecTV channel 640). That means I finally get to watch a game without annoying Loading... delays.
So grab a drink and some leftover turkey and join us for the action.

You can take Bob Huggins out of Cincinnati, but you can’t take Cincinnati out of Bob Huggins.
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Jake Kelly gets called for 5-second violation
The only word that can describe his dribbling is “disoriented”

Commercial break
WVU is up by 4 after a basket by The Apostrophe.
I’m not going to lie; I’m more focused on making a transfer bid for Patrick Kluivert on Championship Manager 2004 right now.
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
This is getting ugly
A staggering lack of defense, the seventh turnover in nine minutes, a fast-break layup, an 8-point WVU lead.
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Throw in a charge, a 3-pointer, and a travel
Oh, and a 3-point play. We’re getting killed.

West Virginia's shooting is getting slightly less ridiculous
We’re still down 16, though, and Tucker just stepped out of bounds. It’s the SIXTEENTH IOWA TURNOVER OF THE FIRST HALF. Jesus Christ.
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
At the half
it’s 48-29 West Virginia. I don’t know which is worse: the turnover number or the 48 points conceded.
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
That's it
I can talk to myself without all this typing. Barring a miracle comeback, this is HS signing off.
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
I, for one
appreciate being able to come home from work and have some sort of an idea at what happened in the game, at least the 1st half. Your efforts do not go unrecognized HS, this guy says gracias.
Gracias.
I do have more rhymes than Jamaica got mangos.
As does this man
Remember, Our Todd is an awesome Todd
