Dispatches From Blogfrica: Sippin' On Purple Talks Iowa-Northwestern Hoops
If I was a good blogger, I would have started this feature a few months back. But I'm a half-assed blogger, so you'll just have to live with getting it now (and for the duration of the season). What is it? Pretty simple: I ask questions of an opposing team's blogger, they answer. A truly...
It's Not Plagiarism If You Link To It Is Still Talking DJK
DJK DJK DJK. While members of the football team were in Carver-Hawkeye on Sunday to be recognized for their stirring Insight Bowl win, one former member of the team was there too -- one Derrell Johnson-Koulianos. In the aftermath, there's been a relative torrent of DJK interviews. KGAN did a...

So, um, 74-57. And it was hardly that close. Northwestern opened up leads of 31-11 and 51-26, and Iowa was never within single digits in the last 30 minutes of gameplay. It's hard to say whether having a short memory would help with a season like this. On one hand, the FIRE JOHN LICKLITER rumblings...

Programming note: BTN is re-airing the dual on the network itself Saturday morning at 11am (right now). Ice Ice Baby (a bit NSFW) brentmetcalf: Think I'll rip Mason's heart out and show it to him on Valentine's Day. About as sentimental as I get. Apparently he decided to do it to his jNWU...
78-65: They're Still Just Northwestern
For a team that's now 9-16 on the season and absolutely without a prayer of postseason play for the third straight seasons, cause for celebration--or better yet, hand-delivered schadenfreude--is hard to come by. Regardless of the outcome of today's game, Northwestern can always point to the fact...
