Why Football is Four Quarters
Yes folks. Football is 4 quarters long. I thank the Maker that it is, because the University of Northern Iowa needed that last quarter!
Your #1 ranked Panthers also saw their perfect season come to an end when they ran in the the Penguins of Youngstown State Saturday in the Dome.
The offense played very flat the first three quarters. While the defense did give up a couple long drives, the ‘guins still only managed to score 13 first half points. So the ‘D’ kept our Panthers in the game, no doubt.
The Panthers went into the 4th quarter down 0-13 but had awesome back to back touchdown scoring drives to go up 14-13.
That one point was all the Panther ‘D’ needed. The shut down the ‘guins on two times the last 5 minutes of the game.
The Penguins really needed to win that game to keep their playoff hopes alive. But we all know Panthers eat penguins so now their dreams are done for at least this year.

Quick Post of the Day.
The new Caveman TV show blows…. it blows so very hard….. It’s bad… very bad.
I totally love the Caveman Geico ads. I think they are some of the funniest ads on TV, but no… the TV show sucks… hard…..
The main Caveman from the ads isn’t even in the TV show. He is what makes those commercials…
Boooooooo ABC…. Boooooooo!!!!

Weather boys and their toys….
I was mad last night. Real mad. I’m still kinda mad. When I get done telling you why I was so mad, you’re probably going to think it is ridiculous. You’ll think I’m crazy and petty and selfish. You may be right, but I doubt it.
Ok, as you know, I live in Waverly. Well last night I guess there were a few Tornado Warnings in and around Iowa City. Fine, so here comes KWWL, KCRG, and KGAN (the local NBC,ABC and CBS affiliates) busting into my precious TV shows telling me there is a Tornado Warning and to seek cover if you are located in X location.
Fine, great. I’m OK with that. Folks need to know when bad weather is coming. HOWEVER, they spent the next 40 minutes talking about it! They all had to show off their stupid weather systems, such as the Ultra Doppler Mark IV, or the Moon Unit Zappa Weather Predictor.. of DOOM.
Forty fricken minutes they wasted my time repeating the same damn information. On KGAN they even flashed on the bottom of the screen that if you lived in a trailer to get out! HAHA. They had a “reporter” on the scene and they would call him up and say, “Give us an update.” The guy would say back, “Well, it’s dark….” No crap?!? It is night out… Jebus.
I seriously felt as if these dudes were getting their rocks off on severe weather. I really did.
They went back to regular TV at around 7:55 so we could catch the last 5 minutes of the shows we missed for the first hour.. Nice. Then a few minutes later they did it again with another warning that went until 8:45… Those bastards.
Now, why did this bother me? For a few reasons, most which you will think are petty. I wanted to watch the new Caveman show on ABC. I love those guys.. The show probably sucks, but I wanted to watch it. Also I love NCIS, I got screwed on that too.
Yes, petty, I know. But the problem is I feel we don’t need these 45 minute “weather orgies” every time there is a tornado warning somewhere. I think we have some “workarounds” that can please TV addicts like myself.
(1) Break into the show, say there is a warning, tell people to take cover and then use a scroll bar along the bottom… Tornado’s affect a small section of viewers; don’t screw the rest of us over with your 45 minute weather love fest.
(2) All the local channels are broadcasting in HD and they also have a weather channels. For example, KWWL for those who get their HD over the air you get 7, 7-1, 7-2, 7-3. 7 is the normal feed channel, 7-1 is the HD feed, 7-2 is the KWWL all weather channel and 7-3 is some crappy music channel. For those with HD, if you must have your weather sex-a-thon, keep the HD feed normal and flash something on it to turn to the weather channel or the normal channel to get weather updates. You have all this technology… use it!!
And thank God some people are taking advantage of technology, because most high profile shows can be viewed the day after on ABC,NBC, CBS’s websites, so all is not lost. I just think these TV stations are going overboard with their stupid weather systems trying to show how cool their toys are and it makes them look silly.
There, I’ve said my peace…

It Cheats for the Rockies!!!
The Rockies won the game in like the umpteenth inning when Matt Holiday scored on a flyball. However, he didn’t actually touch the plate. The Pad’s catcher blocked the plate and he never tagged it. It cheats for the Rockies!
Cheaters…….
The Office… top scenes.
Here is a Video of the “Top Scenes” from The Office. I’m not sure who says they are the top scenes, but they are funny.
