Re: Baby Gronk

John Kenney was solid at Fullback at Iowa, even though it wasn't his preferred position. I wonder if Rich Rod uses him in that role next year if he can't crack the rotation at LB.

Re: Game #1 vs UTSA Roadrunners discussion thread

I've got my tickets for the nosebleeds. I can't wait. Football and Beer on Thursday, a day off of work on Friday to recover and then I get to watch my step brother start for Iowa on Saturday.

My anticipation of the start of the season has been keeping me up at night.

What kind of burrito? Just within a stones throw of my old work, the Cabeza at Juanito's was just as good as the Red Chile at Saint Marys, which was just as good as the Chorizo at Anita Street Market. They are all friggin' amazing.
