I’m Not Dead
Though the Cubs did try to kill me this weekend, the Missouri Tigers and the Chicago Bears rescued me. (For the record, this was the first time Mizzou held Nebraska touchdownless since the Eisenhower administration.) Phew. Now that work has become normal again, and the Cubs are finished torturing me, I can turn back to what really matters: men pummeling each other.
A few notes:
- Dan Gable “stepped down” as assistant coach of Iowa wrestling. He will stay on as special assistant to the AD at Iowa. Translation: the good Lord will have to drag Dan Gable out of Iowa.
- To fill Dan Gable’s spot, the Hawkeyes have named Doug Schwab interim assistant coach. I wonder why the interim is attached? Who cares-it gives me a chance to post this picture of Schwab.
- The TUF 6 Finale fight card has been officially announced, with Huerta-Guida as the main fight on December 8.
- It doesn’t look like we’ll see any fights on HBO anytime soon. That’s fine with me, since I cancelled my subscription right after the Sopranos ended.
- I don’t usually write about boxing here but this worries me. Apparently, Evander Holyfield just won’t stop boxing. I’m a fan of the sport and the fighter, and it would break my heart to see any lasting damage done on the man. Please, for the love, Evander, quit fighting!
Tomorrow - another recap of the Ultimate Fighter. (I can’t wait to Dorian go ca-razy!) and soon, more wrestlers/coaches/teams to watch.
