    Re: DM Register...seriously

    You seriously can't figure out why Iowa got the coverage? They had a big time "reunion" game yesterday. All the "stars" were out...Davis, Pearl, Armstrong, Horton, Marble, Lorenzen, etc, etc, etc. It was a MAJOR event. Thus the coverage.

    Put your panties back on and quit being so whiney.

    Re: DM Register...seriously

    I commented yesterday during the game that Iowa fans and the media would trumpet that up as a big win and another sign that Fran has them "back".

    I'll admit though it was a big deal that they were celebrating Tom Davis and the Elite Eight team that choked their a**es off against UNLV

    Atleast the Rag cares about Iowa BB. No one else seems to.

    I gotta disagree.

    That **** is "feature" material, not sports news. Belongs on the INSIDE pages of the sports page along with stories about Superbowl quarterback's wives and expected favorite superbowl commercials. Actual news, you know, about actual games that matter, belongs on the front page of the sports section

    All 3 teams were featured on the front page (minus the SB extra page). What is your gripe again??

    That's an extra element I hadn't realized. Even without that, it was an afternoon home game, ISU played on the road with an evening end-time. Publications have to plan how to staff coverage and deadlines are realistic (I don't know DMR's deadline, but I'm sure that affected those plans).

    If Iowa played a night game at home and ISU played early on the road vs. a ranked team, there would probably have been a different balance.

    I don't have a gripe. I'm commenting on the OP's post which said the Iowa game got the most and Top coverage. And the comment that the reason they got/deserve that was because of the reunion factor.

    I said UNI's win deserved top coverage beating a highly rated, also regional, team. ISU should get next most coverage playing/winning on the road and playing for a spot in the NCAA's. Iowa's MBB is definitely sucking hind tit this year and should be covered that way this year.

    I don't actually see the DSM Rag in Fl, so I can only respond to what others say, so if the OP is wrong, so be it.

    It was a home game that Dr. Tom was at. Of course there is a ton of media coverage. Panties=bunched.

    The Rag sucks, has and always will suck, and anyone defending that POS sucks (especially some of the fake ISU fans on this site).

    Seriously, if you want things to change, send your complaints straight to the Register instead of posting them here.

    Dr. Tom attending IA game = feature article material = inside page coverage worthy.

    Not wearing panties, so not bunchable.
