Getting Over: AEW Dynamite Review (3/25/20)
This week was supposed to be AEW’s version of War Games, the wonderfully titled “Blood & Guts.” Because of the coronavirus pandemic, that has understandably and unfortunately been delayed. Tony Kahn issued a statement explaining this decision: “Our goal every week with AEW Dynamite on TNT is to produce great shows for our fans, and […]

Getting Over: AEW Dynamite Review (3/18/20)
Let’s start with the obvious: Things are massively screwed up right about now. With the Coronavirus sweeping across the globe, events the world over have been cancelled. Of course, that’s the least of our concerns, really, as people are dying and the rest of us are basically quarantined. As such, we’re left in a strange […]

Iowa State’s 10 Most Unbreakable Football Records
When you think of Iowa State football, “success” isn’t the first word that probably pops in your head. In fact, many college football fans probably think the opposite, and some don’t think about Iowa State at all. And Cyclone fans shouldn’t really take offense — Iowa State is 109th out of 130 active FBS teams […]

A Good Bet is Hard to Find
Cancelled. All of them. The basketball and hockey and soccer and XFL. You are running out of options quickly. You have a better shot of beating keno than horse racing. You don’t know anything about rugby. That leaves you with few options, that itch right in the center of your back that you just cannot […]

Conference Tournament Preview
The best week of basketball may not actually be the first round of the NCAA tournament but conference tournament week. It certainly is for the betting crowd. There are more games and they run all day and into the night this week. By mid-day Thursday you’re so enamored with basketball you begin wonder why anyone […]

Getting Over: AEW Dynamite Review (3/4/20)
With AEW Revolution now in the rearview, I found myself very curious as to the direction AEW would go now. The matches and feuds at Revolution had been meticulously built for months. To continue them after that pay-per-view would cheapen, in some ways, what happened at Revolution. However, for many of the programs, there was […]

Getting Over: AEW Dynamite Review (2/26/20)
Coming off of three straight excellent shows, this week’s Dynamite had the unenviable task of delivering a knock-out go-home show, especially given that last week’s show was so great and felt like a perfect lead-in to a pay-per-view. Last week, we were treated to a tag team battle royal to determine the number one contenders […]

No Undefeated Teams in College Basketball
West Coast basketball stumbled a bit with both SDSU and Gonzaga dropping games they shouldn’t have. Fortunately, both teams should have opportunities to redeem themselves in the NCAA tournament.

A New Sportsbook is About to Take Over Iowa
As Kansas and Baylor warmed up in front of the world on College Gameday preparing for their much anticipated showdown, I topped off the gas tank and headed north out of Des Moines to check out Draftkings Sportsbook at the Wild Rose Casino in Jefferson. The sportsbook there isn’t new, gambling has been legal in […]

Getting Over: AEW Dynamite Review (2/19/20)
1984 Mid-South Wrestling is considered by many to be some of the best episodic wrestling television ever produced. Available on the WWE Network, 1984 Mid-South still holds up excellently even today, nearly 40 years later. Why? The matches were good to great, the episodes built programs week-to-week, and the company gave fans characters to care […]
