  • Getting Over: AEW Dynamite Review (2/5/20)

    Getting Over: AEW Dynamite Review (2/5/20)

    When I started writing about AEW and Dynamite specifically, I didn’t really just want to write another recap of a wrestling show. There’s plenty of those. I’m a lot more interested in what makes a wrestling show work. That’s where the title Getting Over came from. How does a company, starting almost completely from scratch, […]

    Sports & Corks 2.04: 24

    College basketball is a top priority until we have a national champion for men and women’s basketball (0:55). Games of the week aren’t college basketball though (12:04). Games of the week are also not the big game on Sunday, but some Chiefs-49ers action gets a few comments (15:04). Thoughts and reflections on Kobe are shared (19:48). Hot […]

  • Movie Roundup: January 2020

    Going forward, I’ll be previewing notable movies to be (wide) released within the next 30 days at the beginning of each month. I’ve always found it to be a bit of a hassle to keep track of movies that I’d like to see and when they actually get released, so hopefully this will be a […]

    The Continued Rise of Farmageddon

    November 9, 2002. That was the last—and only—time that Iowa State and Kansas State have met on the gridiron with seven or more wins each. And for the 8th-longest continuous rivalry in college football, that’s fairly notable. The Cyclones came into the game ranked 21st in the nation at 7-3 with their three losses coming […]

    Bigger Than Sports

    A note from Ted When I started this website I wanted to give a place for the voiceless. When people say to “stick to sports,” what they are doing is attempting to take away the voice of the under represented. We have been doing this website for a little over three years, and whenever we […]

    Shawntez’s Tailgate Menu – Week 7

    Golden Delicious This week kicks off pretty slow. There’s a big matchup at the Texas State Fair where Oklahoma and Texas show down in the Red River Rivalry, but that’s about all that’s worth paying attention to early on. The Big Ten can’t even save us this week, as the only ranked team they have […]

  • An Open Letter to Hawkeye Fans…

    An Open Letter to Hawkeye Fans…

    CyHawk week has become dreadful for me. I shouldn’t have to remind people, but under Matt Campbell, Iowa State has beaten: #3 Oklahoma (in Norman) #4 TCU #6 West Virginia #19 Memphis (in Memphis) #25 Oklahoma State (in Stillwater) Quite frankly, his only pronounced blemish is an 0-3 record against Iowa. (Although it’s true that […]
