After yesterday's reckless actions within the Iowa fanbase, I've got something to say.

It’s really easy to tell when other “media” use our stats without asking, and it’s really, really not cool.

Kirk Ferentz said Jeremy Hecklinski will start against Minnesota, and the coaching staff will evaluate how they'll go about the QBs from there.

The Wave has become one of the most iconic parts of an Iowa football home game. We took a look inside the Stead Family Children’s Hospital during the beloved tradition. bit.ly/47u58oj

One year ago we lost Ace Frehley, and he's still deeply missed by his fans and by me. Ace and I always shared a special mutual respect. There was never any competition between us, just an appreciation for each other's talents. I always admired his unique style and his legacy as KISS's original guitarist. Knowing that Ace respected my playing, and wasn't shy about saying so, was one of the greatest compliments I could ever receive. I'll always cherish that. Miss you, Ace. RIP

Ace Frehley. 1951-2025. Forever part of KISSTORY.
Ace inspired an entire generation to pick up a guitar for the first time, and still does. One year on, we remember the riffs and the sound that were unmistakably Space Ace. Still out there somewhere in orbit 💫

For the past 3 seasons, I’ve been fortunate to serve as a correspondent covering girls wrestling for @CRGazetteSports.
I’ve decided that time has come to an end. I’ve truly enjoyed getting to share stories of some incredible women competing in the greatest sport in the world.

I love a Democratic Party that builds bridges.
James Talarico on abortion:
"Some of my spiritual heroes, like Pope Francis and Pope Leo, are pro-life. I can respect anyone who is pro-life. We treat this debate as a philosophical debate or a theological debate when it's actually a public policy problem.
We can join together to make sure we have scientifically valid sex education, that folks who need contraception can get it, that everyone has health care—something the Catholic Church has led on."

The only reason Metallica don't do politics on stage is they all massively disagree on politics.
They're a redneck libertarian hunter, a liberal hyper-capitalist, a lefty arty-farty vegan nerd and a vegan punk.

I don’t think you have a dog in this fight but if you did you would have shot it.
I’ll take @ellalangleymsic over Kacey Musgraves any day.
And if I’m choosin’ Texas, I’ll take Ken Paxton over James Talarico.
