    More Football

    Okay, new post for the ongoing Hawkeye-Cyclone football game.

    Right now, Hawkeyes have the ball. Hope they get it down the field and score! For sure, the Cyclones owned the third quarter!

    Hawkeyes ran it to the 5 yard line! First down coming up! Great way to start the fourth quarter!

    HAWKEYES SCORE! RAN IT INTO THE END ZONE!!!!!

    PAT is good! Now the score is 10-3 with the Hawkeyes in front. Wife is happy!!!!

    Cyclones, after doing a good job of moving the ball down the field, had to settle for a field goal attempt that failed.

    Now the Hawkeyes have the ball and hopefully they will move down and score.

    (#13 Kansas lost to #19 South Florida, 34-37)

    Hawkeyes had to punt the ball. Cyclones now have it on their own 20. Will see what develops on this drive.

    HOT DAMN! Cyclones had to punt and Hawkeyes ran the punt back 82 yards for a touchdown!!!!!! Now the score is 17-3…..

    Okay, was on the phone with our son, so I missed out on a touchback by the Cylones.

    But still, the game is over and the Hawkeyes did win! 17-5 and that is what matters most to my wife!

    Football

    The rain finally ceased here sometime after midnight. So far, the radar is showing nothing coming our way. Even checked the radar in Omaha, Nebraska and Kansas City, Missouri to see anything coming from the west and the south. And the expected track of Hurricane Ike seem to be way south of us, Ike swinging east through Arkansas.

    Have the three grandkids from Des Moines down here for the weekend. They are staying at our daughter’s house but am sure the boys will be here later and will spend the night here. The girls I am sure will make an appearance here, if for nothing more than to get some sweets and candies.

    Now we are watching the big game of the day. The Iowa Hawkeyes and the Iowa State Cyclones playing each other in a so far great game in Iowa City. End of the first quarter has our Hawkeyes barely ahead at 3-0. They are playing on a very wet field as the rains there ended just before the game started and projections are a strong possibility of more rain sometime later during the game.

    Right now working on a new general directory. Opening it up because first I had a nice domain sitting around that is super for a directory and second because a friend of mine made a super template that is so different from all the other templates out there. He is working on some mods right now for the directory to add some great functionality that both webmasters submitting their sites will like a lot and visitors will enjoy. You can go and visit the directory now, and add your site as it is free at present with featured links at a good low price. Free links will be on the directory only for one year, while the featured links will be on the directory permanently. Notice when you go to the directory what happens when you refresh the page! Or go to another page on the site. Go now to my new directory and submit your site if you have one at the YuAdd General Directory.

    And working on my new blog, Iowadawg’s Sites, where all my current sites are listed. I will be posting a separate post for each of my sites so you will know more about each site and why you should visit. Well worth visiting often to keep up with my sites.

    Football update: into the second quarter, still Hawkeyes 3-0 with them having the ball now. Super! A great pass and reception just now. First down for the Hawkeyes on the 15 yard line.

    Halftime; Still Hawkeyes 3-0 over the Iowa State Cyclones.

    Start of half: ISU Cylones started with the ball and still have it and driving down to the goal line. Oops, they just got hit with delay of game penalty! Now they call a time out with time running down.

    Hawkeyes INTERCEPTED!!!! They have the ball on the one yard line.

    Okay, they got nowhere and had to punt off. Giving the Cyclones great field position to try again.

    Cyclones missed a field goal after some exciting moments of moving the ball close to the goal line!

     Darn!!! Hawkeyes gave up the ball awful fast with a Cyclone interception.

    Cyclones finally get on the board with a field goal.  Now it is 3-3.

    Grandkids came by, but wife chased them away! She is watching the game and wants no interruptions or noise!

    Come back as I will be updating as the game progresses.

    Just updated my Directory Blogger with a good list of bid directories!
