This is not the way it was supposed to go. Not with this team. But such is life. Grief and glee. The dichotomy of college sports.

‘Fill it up’, ‘pour it in’, ‘GET BUCKETS’! We love little more than watching our favorite NBA stars score in massive quantities. Forget the other 9 players on the court, we just want to watch our favorite artists work. When Kobe takes over in the fourth or ‘Melo goes for 45, we cannot get enough. Just look at your twitter timelines, with major sporting accounts constantly tweeting players’ insane scoring totals. If we love individual scoring this much it can only be good for our teams…right? The last player to score the most in an NBA season and win a Championship? … Continued
Imagine for a second that you are a beef cow. You’re forced into a trailer with several others of your herd. The truck pulling it takes off and drives to the nearest meat locker. The farmer that has spent years feeding you, doctoring you and giving you shelter leads you into the locker, where the last thing you see is a butcher and the barrel of a gun. After you are dismembered the farmer takes his profits from the sale of your flesh. Now imagine that just prior to being taken on that trip, the farmer whispers in your ear … Continued

Whatever it was that plagued the Hawkeyes at the plate through the early stretch of the conference schedule lifted last weekend in Evanston, IL. The Hawkeyes scored 3o runs in the three games to win two out of three and win their first three-game series of the conference season. The Wildcats scored more than their fair share of runs in the series as well, plating 32 runs total for the weekend. Friday night in Evanston started with Kayla Massey in the circle for the Hawkeyes and Amy Letournea taking the ball for the Wildcats. Northwestern gave Letournea an early boost, scoring four … Continued
Paying tribute to the late, great broadcaster, Pat Summerall.
Yesterday during the annual running of the Boston Marathon, two bombs exploded at the finish line. Chaos ensued at 2:45 p.m. as runners and spectators fled from the scene. The normally joyous occasion is now the scene of an attack. The two bombs, roughly 100 yards apart, caused two deaths and roughly 90 injuries. Police have searched the area for evidence to a motive behind these attacks. Numerous suspicious packages were found around the area but findings have showed that this is due to people fleeing the scene. A third blast came from the John F Kennedy Presidential Library shortly … Continued
In recent and perhaps obvious news, Kobe Bryant is out for the next 6-9 months recovering from a torn Achilles tendon. This is just an addition to the already rocky season the Lakers have had. Kobe says that he was making a move that he does a million times and it just went out. He tried applying pressure but “there was nothing there.” This recent injury brings up the topic of injuries in the NBA, and amongst athletes in general. Injuries are all too common especially in fast paced, and high intensity sports that require extreme amounts of pivoting and … Continued
By: Grayson Schmidt More than any other sport, baseball is a sport of patience. This holds true as a player, and as a fan. 162 games is a long (almost too long) season and since we are only two weeks in, overreaction should be kept to a minimum. Baseball is a streaky game and a team dominating or struggling after only playing around 12 games is no cause for panic. However, I do feel as if the past 14 days have shown us a lot about our own expectations. So I am here to simply make observations and point out … Continued
With several of the Big Ten’s most talented players opting to enter the NBA Draft, 2013-14 rosters could look drastically different in the country’s strongest basketball conference. The 2012-13 season was a successful one for the Big Ten, finishing with an NIT Finalist and seven NCAA tournament teams, including four Sweet Sixteen teams, two Elite Eight teams and the National Runner-Up Michigan Wolverines. Influenced by a historically thin draft class and impressive performances on the sports biggest stage, much of the top Big Ten talent has chosen to make the jump to the next level. In particular, Michigan and Indiana … Continued
