Sometimes I get little ideas for posts but don’t write them because I don’t want to spend the time researching details and finding facts. I’m not really a details and facts type of fan. I’m more of an emotional fan that just has fun watching the teams, making fun of the opponents, and occassionally making fun of the Hawkeyes when they do something really stupid.
The summer is a particularly bad time to write a college sports blog but I won’t let this hold me back anymore.
I just sent in my check for the football season tickets so it is probably about time to start complaining about scheduling Maine and Florida-somebody-or-other (one of those teams that will actually play for a championship instead of a BCS trophy). It is probably time to start figuring out how many different ways Illinois and Notre Dame are going to suck (I’ve spent most of my life in Illinois getting abused by fans of those two programs so I have a health hatred for them).
But this post is more for me than you. It is a reminder not to go months without writing something because I feel like I should be trying to cover sports like a reporter. I’m no reporter. I normally don’t even bother spell checking. But I am an annoying Hawkeye fan and this is my reminder to write more about that.
