GameDay Guest Picker

If it's the first you've heard of it, you're way behind. Crooked deal with Test Iowa. Company he worked with bilked several other states the same way.

I don’t live in Iowa, so haven’t heard any of this. From the few articles I just read, Kutcher simply referred the governor to an out-of-state company to supply testing. The state then entered into a contract with the company, and it may have been illegal because the test results were reported first to the out-of-state companies before going to the Iowa Department of Public Health.

What is crooked about that? Did the company not supply tests like they said they were going to, or were they otherwise deficient in holding up their end of the contract? Maybe I am missing other pertinent facts, but I don’t understand how the above could be interpreted as crooked or bilking the state out of money.

This is literally the first I have heard of this, but it appears he simply referred an out-of-state company to Reynolds for supplying Iowa’s testing supply. Is there anything more to the story? Because that is objectively not “bilk[ing] the state” out of money.

You bilk her, you brought her.

OK, I missed that you're out-of-state. I'll see if I can dig up some of the old articles and links, or threads, and PM you, if that works.

Actually, since Ashton Kutcher was involved, and we're talking Ashton Kutcher here, that's pretty relevant Ashton Kutcher information.

That cheetos super bowl commercial might have been the worst thing anyone has ever done in the history of mankind.

It’s Kutcher. He is flying home tomorrow morning from LA

 

[FeedBreece]

If it is Ashton i think it would make an even bigger F U to ESPN if literally zero people showed up to the broadcast. I honestly think it would be hilarious

This is so stupid. you realize then it would just be all Iowa fans right? We’d look terrible

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

The more I think about fine get another person with hawk ties. I hope the whole set picks against us so hopefully reverse psychology works in our favor.

It's still essentially de-railing the topic of this thread with politics. I could care less, he's a douche regardless and that's all that needs to be said.

How much less could you care?

I just got done listening to a podcast about this Iowa State Grad. Get him on work release for a day?

Suspect in Shiawassee County 'horror book' murder, cannibalism case set to stand trial

Mark Latunski is charged with killing Kevin Bacon and eating his testicles. Bacon was reported missing the day before his body was found.

Them picking Kutcher is the straw that breaks the camel's back. I refuse to watch the game tomorrow.

why would he fly to cedar rapids

 

[ntxcyclone]

There is too much smoke on Twitter right now not to be fire…..F that REALLY sucks….why would you put a die hard hawk fan as the guest picker??? I’d rather it was a country music singer I’ve never heard of before…..I guess we shouldn’t have complained about that last time. I mean jeez was Hayden Fry busy?? That would maybe be a worse choice than Ashton….Ashton, Tom Arnold and Hayden Fry would be the last three humans I’d want to have that job….

lololloollololol wat

 

[cyfanatic]

Why do people believe it is Kutcher? Was it confirmed? Is it believed to be him because of an aircraft leaving the LA area? You know how many people live in that area? How many famous people live in that area? Sports stars...entertainment stars...I mean...I don't get the assumption that it is Kutcher just because a flight is leaving the LA area tomorrow morning...

 

[cycopath25]

Muph just said on facebook live he is quite certain it is Kutcher. UGH!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Cyclones2]

Pollard said yesterday at a Lunch event my wife was at that he knew who the guest picker was and that he is not happy about it. So if its Kutcher, then him not being happy about it makes sense.

 

[cycopath25]

Kevin Costner would of been a smart picker with all the exposure he got recent on ESPN for the Field of Dreams game.

 

[carvers4math]

Just another middle finger from the tools at ESPN

 

[cytown]

If it's anyone with U of I ties, what a complete middle finger to the program, the university, and the fans.

Knock off the political crap in this thread.
