WE'RE TALKING BASKETBALL: The Northerned Iowa

Iowa Hawkeyes at Northern Iowa Panthers, Dec 8, 2009 7:05 PM CST


Okay, so we're going to tip off in just a couple minutes, and... what? What do you mean, "the game already started"?

Indeed, just like the actual Iowa Hawkeyes, we basically slept through the first half and now it's time to kick some ass in the second. Maybe. Depending on whether you feel like kicking ass, anyway.

The game's on one of the local throwaway channels on Mediacom in Iowa... and that's about it. HS and I are DirecTV subscribers, so... we'll just be taking your word for everything.

Thread's right here; you all know what to do and how to do it.

My guess is you'd be better off sticking with that.

on the bright side

Hawkeyes are covering the spread by 2. heh

Either Rivals is playing a joke...

…or Iowa’s creeping back into this game.

These scoring droughts

are just killing us every game. We finally start pulling things together in the 2nd half and they go back up 15

Don't call it a comeback. Been (this way) for years.

This is a pandemic on the order of swine flu. Only more deadly. So plague or some shit.

Did anyone else notice

that Brommer has 3 fouls in about 5 minutes again

That's the least surprising development since, um...

…I can’t think of anything more predictable than Brommer foul trouble.

I am in fucking Iowa City and I can't even see the game

It seems like that should never happen. On the other hand, it would probably just make me angry, so whatever.

Back to outlining for Contracts, I suppose.

Linder

Not really a fan of his actual class, but the test is a takehome, and he’s giving us 8 hours to do what should really be like a 3 hour test. So that’s nice.

It makes it hard to get motivated to study though. It’s like “fuck, I’m gonna have time to just all this shit up, what am I doing?”

by NorseHawk on Dec 8, 2009 8:38 PM CST up reply actions  

I never had his class

and I didn’t know he was teaching contracts, but he always struck me as odd.

Not bad.

I remember it being pretty straightforward; if you understand the material, you should be fine.

by RossWB on Dec 8, 2009 8:45 PM CST up reply actions  

That is true of every test

But, yeah, I know what you mean. Thanks. I’ve got an alright grasp, I think. And besides, eight hours.

by NorseHawk on Dec 8, 2009 8:46 PM CST up reply actions  

Sure.

But there were some tests that seemed to test on fairly tricky stuff. I don’t recall his test being like that at all.

by RossWB on Dec 8, 2009 8:49 PM CST up reply actions  

Weirdest dude in the world

He basically lives in the building, wears the same clothes like four days in a row, and goes off on the weirdest fucking tangents that take up most of the class. He is kinda funny (really dry sense of humor), but “odd” is definitely apt.

by NorseHawk on Dec 8, 2009 8:41 PM CST up reply actions  

"look all this shit up", that is

My brain is functioning at like 20% right now. Maybe.

Hey, another future lawyer!

I’m in Burton’s Contracts.

No final today with the snow. So, I’m here.

Yup

Canceled classes for snow? Buncha pussies at this school. But I’ll take it.

by NorseHawk on Dec 9, 2009 8:36 AM CST up reply actions  

Canceled?

Shit, back in my day they never canceled shit. I trudged through a blizzard to make a final one year.

Kids today… rassum frassum..

by RossWB on Dec 9, 2009 8:45 AM CST up reply actions  

They never cancelled anything.

We just had to slide down the hill by the chem building and laugh at the cambus trying to climb that hill by the pentacrest.
That and rocks were our entertainment

It never gets to be easy

We had glaze ice all over one day

Like a half-inch on every paved surface. The best was the really long accessibility ramp outside of Lindquist. You could have charged admission to go down that puppy.

Thanks, much appreciated. Prof is wondering why I’m banging my head on the table in front of me.

Tell him it's because night class sucks.

They love it when you do that.

What did you think of the premiere last night?

Little weak compared to last season, but still damn funny.

Just watched it on Hulu

Agreed, not their best work, but still one of the funniest shows on TV. It’s going to be really sad when it inevitably get canceled sometime soon.

Well, at least we won football

64-47 UNI, 3:10 to go. So they’re going to win on aggregate.

Did we really only manage 3 points in the last 3 minutes?

I mean we had to have been jacking up threes the whole time right? Just one?

67-50 FINAL

I quit.

by Patrick Vint on Dec 8, 2009 8:56 PM CST reply actions  

At this point, I view the entire season as a test of my manhood

I refuse to quit and let them win. That’s what they want me to do (I assume. There’s no way they’d do all of this stuff otherwise, right?). Instead, I will continue to watch (often in person!). I am confident that I will emerge from the season as a stronger person because of it.

Or I will snap and try to murder Devan Bawinkel in the middle of a game while screaming something about following your shot. It’s one or the other.

Lickliter's Carotid Tear

He’s supposed to rest for the remainder of the week. I’m wondering… considering how serious this was, might he consider walking away from this mess before the stress of it all kills him in another fashion?

Yeah, its hard to walk away from that money, but you can’t spend it if you’re dead.

I wonder if he's been to a chiropractor?

They’ve been known to cause just this kind of injury (leading to a stroke) with their “treatments”.

by Brock Sampson on Dec 8, 2009 11:46 PM CST up reply actions  

In the end days of the Jerry Dunn era, we didn’t have enough players to run full practices.

Now look at us. Coming off an NIT victory, and tied with Maryland-Baltimore County for most of the first half.

You can do it too, Iowa.
