OT: Sex in the Metrodome - More Info Released

This could get ugly, very quickly now that the details are coming out. It could be a he said, she said deal.

Feldman, the female in the article(s), says she doesn't remember anything according to the local Carroll paper.

The Des Moines Register's updated story says that it has ruined her life. She was fired from her job and has been outed.

Either someone is not telling the truth or we could have some HUGE legal issues arise from this.

I never know what to believe in these sort of deals, but who really does? Normally the people involved.

OT: Who Knew Iowa Football was an Aphrodesiac?

Illegal Use of Hands? You betcha'!

This is probably why they don't serve alcohol in Kinnick:
Iowa Fans Busted Having Sex in Metrodome Bathroom

I guess the fact that Iowa was up 55-0 was just too much for these two... No word if there was any foot tapping involved in the Metrodome stall.

I don't know what's more intriguing - the fact that there were 15 other people gawking at the lovefest or the fact that both people involved were cheating on their significant other. Imagine the walk back to the car after the game? Aaaaaaaackwaaaaaaaaard...

Proof enough that there was much more spanking occurring than just on the field on Saturday.

According to a WCCO report, the woman gave a false middle name. I doubt that happened, my guess is she was too drunk to remember.

Thanks for the link, Lane.

And of course, I'd have to put in an honorable mention (and shameless, shameless plug) to the only real contribution I have ever given the site... not because of lack of effort, but because of lack of being a good blogger...

BHGP ROUNDTABLE: Iowa Football 2008 (Part One)
BHGP ROUNDTABLE: Iowa Football 2008 (Part Two)

Congrats on turning the big 1, BHGP, but you know you'll always be a 10 in my heart... or a 0... I can't ever remember if I am supposed to carry the 1 or not.

OT: Michael Phelps is Bill Brasky +1

What Tiger does in golf...
What Roger did in tennis...
What Jordan did in the NBA...
What The Babe did in MLB...
What Alcindor did in college basketball...
What Gretsky did in the NHL...
What Pele did in soccer...

Those guys pale in comparison to what Michael Phelps has done.
It's immeasurable.



Phelps = Stud.

Damn, dude.

OT: If You Didn't Hear, Iowa is Flooded; Too Bad the DMR Isn't Under Water.

Iowa is in the middle of the single worst flood to hit the state since, well, ever... or somewhere around that time-period. Some waters are reaching beyond the 500 year flood plain. Just an all-out devastating flood last week. I am not going to put up all the links to the various sites that have photos or whatever, just for the fear of what happened to BHGP.

Hawkeye State put up a simple post showing some pictures of the flood, how you could donate to the cause, and put up an embedded video from the Des Moines Register's website. The video, mind you, had links to embed the video directly into your blog, message board, etc...

BHGP - Original Post

Well, apparently that set off a bitch alert down at the Rag, and BHGP was given a cease and desist order wherein they were ordered to remove the offending material. That material being the embedded video that the Rag provided links to allow to embed into your blog, message board, etc...

BHGP - DMR Sinks Disaster Relief

Deadspin caught wind of it, and all hell broke loose.

DEADSPIN - Odd Flood Relief Measures: The Des Moines Register Is Finally Understanding The Interweb

Well, whatever, a pretty shoddy-ass move by the Rag, even after the "apology" was sent. (Ir)regardless [sic], if you are reading this blog you are either an Iowa fan, an Iowa hater, or just bored out your mind (99% of the 2 readers of this blog... yes, that percentage is possible with 2 readers). However you got here, if you have a few bucks to spare, send it Iowa's way. The good people of Iowa need help.

Ah, forget, I am going to live dangerously... here's a pic from last week in front of the Wig and Pen. Truly jaw-dropping.

OT: Wii Fit - Hula Hoop Girl

Thanks to Opie and Anthony for this little nuggent.

Borderline NSFW.
You have been warned.

Basically, another dbag guy who somehow has landed a hottie filmed his GF doing the Wii Fit game. We are all better people now because of it, though.

Love it.

OT: Did I Just Get Philip J. Fryed? Ultra-Concentrated Laundry Detergent?

I have meant to blog about this issue for about a month now, but only now have had the time and energy to hit it. Rewind the clock to a month go. Ready. Go.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

So yesterday, I was just in Target buying a few items, headed through the laundry detergent aisle and everything looked normal. All the detergent looked as they always had. Today, I head back to Target for some of other items and happen to stumble into the laundry detergent aisle once again. I think I was seriously cryopreserved, and just woke up at a later date.

The laundry detergent went from this:


To this:


And not just P&G's stuff, the ENTIRE FRIGGIN' LAUNDRY DETERGENT AISLE WAS NOW ULTRA CONCENTRATED DETERGENT.

How the hell did that happen?

Friggin' mind blower. I want to know where I have been the last few months.

OT: I Got Pwned Last Week

I took this picture on my Blackberry. It's pretty easy to hold it straight out in front of you and drive at the same time when you are doing 10 under the speed limit because of these three gentlemen driving down Hwy 52 in Rochester. As you can see, there was no one else around me. Trust me, I can multi-task while driving, esp. in this circumstance. Cripes.

But that's not the point... the point is... I got nuthin'.
