Meant it more as the teams tend to run out of gas. The style of play is exciting to watch, but they seem to lose leads as quick as they gain them. Maybe I'm reflecting more on Dr. Tom then any of the other offshoots.

I'm not sure what his full time job is, but he runs a youth basketball camp, and helps out with a lot of youth sports. Plus, his mom was my elementary principal........I don't know how I ended up with a serviceable education of that.jk

As much as I enjoy a good Hawk bashing Jess's brother is a doctor in my town and goes to my church. Jess just happened to be at church this sunday with his family. I can't say much about Jess other than he seemed nice when I shock his hand (with ISU jacket still on) but his brother and folks are very, very good and humble people.
