The Bears hung tough. But in the end, it wasn’t enough to beat the rival Packers in Green Bay.
On November 12, Nuovo Testamento graced Iowa City with their music live at The James Theater as a part of The Englert Theatre’s Track Zero concert series. I attended the concert that night, fully ready to boost a move myself.
Local Iowa City band Twin River Revivalist put on a great show last Halloweekend. With songs that can charge up any crowd, their next show at Elray’s this Friday, Dec. 5th is sure to be a good one.
I sat down with multi-instrumentalists Jano Rix before his gig with The Wood Brothers at The Englert Theatre on November 12th. Taking a beat to touch on what shaped him artistically, his favorite illustrators, and the impact dancing has had in his adult life, Jano let us into how he makes a chaotic world feel focused and comfortable.
Good. Better. Best…Again. The Bears keep the Chi-train moving, routing the Eagles in an NFC slug fest.

In the three seasons since Theo Epstein took over as Cubs president, the Cubs have gone a combined 200-286, good for a .412 winning percentage. However, this was all part of a master plan to completely revamp the Cubs minor league system and eventually make a big splash in free agency, and in the offseason following the 2014 season, the Cubs made sure they let the rest of the MLB know that it was ready to make an impact. Once Joe Maddon opted out of the final year of his contract with the Tampa Bay Rays, Chicago quickly picked him … Continued

Even after losing to the lowly Northwestern Wildcats in the first round of the Big Ten Tournament on Thursday night, many of the so-called analysts had Iowa safely in the tournament.

Iowa will take on the Tennessee Volunteers on Wednesday night at approximately 8:10 CT. The winner will take on the 6th-seeded Massachusetts Minutemen Friday in Raleigh. Two weeks ago, Iowa was projected to be around a 6 … Continued
It is very well known that the Chicago Cubs have not won a World Series since 1908, by far the longest drought in any of the four major sports, and while the Cubs have had some teams since then that many believed would be the team to break that drought (2003 immediately comes to mind), they haven’t even made the World Series since 1945. While Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer have a plan to finally bring a championship to the North side, it is highly unlikely that plan will be accomplished this year. The Cubs lost more than 90 games … Continued
For the past two seasons, the Iowa Hawkeyes basketball team has had numerous close losses. In many of those losses, they were winning for much of the game, and couldn’t hold on. They had similar games this past week against Michigan State and Illinois. On Tuesday, the Hawkeyes had yet another chance to get a signature victory, and they couldn’t quite pull it off, losing 71-69 in overtime despite leading for much of the second half. Then came Saturday’s game against a struggling Illinois team. Iowa needed a win to stay with Michigan and Michigan State (both 8-1) in the … Continued
Ever since the acquisition of LeBron James, Chris Bosh, and the re-signing of Dwyane Wade in the summer of 2010, the Miami Heat have ruled the Eastern Conference. Miami has won the Eastern Conference three seasons in a row, and have won the NBA Championship each of the last two seasons, however it’s time to look at which teams have the chance to take down the Heat and represent the Eastern Conference in the NBA Finals this season. Chicago Bulls: The Bulls are finally healthy again. On Tuesday, Derrick Rose will play in his first meaningful game since Game 1 … Continued
