bleachreport.com The College Football Media Day circus has flung into high gear this week, and with it comes more drama than a Keeping up with the Kardashians marathon. Members of the media have been eagerly awaiting the league's press day since news of the conference breakup, and are full of stress-inducing questions for new and departing coaches and players. Iowa State’s Paul Rhoads was one of the newer head coaches participating this year. He brought along quarterback Austen Arnaud, running back Alexander Robinson and defensive end Rashawn Parker to assist in answering questions for the media. Among the drama-provoking questions asked of the coach and his players was one about their opinion of the recent claim by Iowa’s Adrian Clayborn. At an Iowa mini-media day, Clayborn answered questions about expectations for the upcoming season. In his response, he mentioned that the Hawkeyes were “the only team in the state” as far as he knew. Apparently, that agitated one of the Cyclone s...

Too bad you can only drive it during the football season. Otherwise, you are one big douchebag.

Mindy Greany WATERLOO,IA --- A Grundy Center woman has been sentenced to prison for stealing from people with disabilities. As a credit counseling company employee, Mindy Sue Greany, 31, oversaw the funds of the blind and mentally challenged --- people who needed help keeping track of their money. Instead, she siphoned more than $100,000 from their accounts at Family Management Credit Counselors in Waterloo. On Friday, District Court Judge Margaret Lingreen sentenced Greany to spend up to 10 years in prison for her pleas to six counts of first-degree theft, eight counts of second-degree theft and one count of third-degree theft. One of the credit counseling clients had a simple question for Greany when he took the witness stand during sentencing. "He said 'Why did you steal from me?'" said Roger Goldsberry, director of Family Management Credit Counselors. Greany was an administrative assistant at the organization and took money between July 2003 and July 27, 2...

So your girlfriend fucked your roommate on your one-year anniversary, big deal. There's no need to break down in tears after your third fucking drink. It's embarrassing. I really don't feel like spending the rest of my hard-earned drunkenness talking about shit like "feelings" and "caring" so you either have to act like a man, or I'm bailing on you. The whole reason why we went out is to drink and meet some girls, so let's work on the latter part of this operation and find some new females instead of sobbing over the old ones. Go find your ex's friends and talk to them. Trust me, nothing pisses an ex off more then banging one or two of her "friends." Just please stop crying, Bro.

Oh my god! I saw those new pics of you on vacation this week! How was it!? How's your family!? Are you still dating your girlfriend!? Its not up on Facebook!? Listen b*itch, just because we were in the same freshman orientation group and had Math 101 together two years ago does not mean that we're "Friends" by anyone's standards. We may be "Friends" on Facebook, but other than the occasional hello when we walk by each other in the quad to avoid awkwardness, I honestly don't f*cking care about you or anything that happens in your life. I bet you have 2,000 friends on Facebook, while in reality you hang out regularly with three of them. Take a lap, I'm going to get another beer.

MILWAUKEE (Reuters Life!) - A jury on Thursday found a 24-year-old Wisconsin man guilty of attempted sexual assault for trying to dig up a dead woman's body so his brother could have sex with the corpse, court officials said. On a night in September 2006, Alexander Grunke, his brother Nick and friend Dustin Radke went to the St. Charles cemetery in Cassville, Wisconsin, intent on digging up a 20-year-old woman's body who had died the week before in a car wreck. First, they went to a store to buy condoms, according to the police report. They dug up the grave but were stymied by the concrete vault holding the woman's casket. They ran away when a vehicle approached but were stopped by police, with Grunke dressed in black and perspiring profusely. In testimony in Grant County court, Radke said his friend had long wanted to have sex with a corpse, according to a report on KCRG-TV's website. "Nick said numerous times over the years how he'd love to have sex with...

Public, anonymous and still widely unregulated, Craigslist is the ideal platform for scorned revenge-seekers. Which is why we weren't surprised to come across the following ad in the "Jewelry" section of Louisville Craigslist. In it, the poster attempts to sell a "never used" engagement ring after walking in on his fiancée in the middle of a gang bang. Asylum reached out to the poster via the return address on Craigslist and received a terse "It speaks for itself " in reply. Never get engaged without a receipt. I decided.

www.kgan.com That's what happened to Joe Privetta. Privetta answered his door Monday afternoon and a man pistol whipped him forcing him to the ground. They took a computer and an XBOX. When police arrived with a K-9 unit the police dog smelled marijuana coming from his residence which led to Privetta being charged with possesion of a controlled substance. So they stole a computer and an xbox, but didn't steal the marijuana? These robbers must have been nerds.

www.gazetteonline.com One of Iowa City’s largest bars is struggling to make rent less than six weeks after the June 1 enactment of an Iowa City ordinance forbidding under-21 patrons after 10 p.m. The Fieldhouse at 111 E. College St. can hold about 400, and packs them in on weekends. Even in the slower summer months, it has typically brought in gross revenue of $80,000 to $120,000, according to owner Dave Carey of Marion. Monthly revenues plunged to about $12,000 in June of this year, when a new city ordinance barring under-21-year-olds from bars after 10 p.m. The issue for Carey is simple. Monthly rent is over $15,000. Insurance is $6,000. Then there is the payroll, and the utilities … “I don’t know what we’ll do yet,” said Carey, 41. “We’re hanging on until football season. If they do vote against it (repeal the ordinance), I don’t know what we’re gonna do.” What’s happened to all the customers? Carey says many University of Iowa students who formerly entertained friends f...

Jeff Raacsh The Cedar Rapids Gazette Henry Rogers gently shook his head when an attorney read the charge he faces in the death of a Georgia man. Rogers, 28, of Cedar Rapids, is now charged with involuntary manslaughter in the death of Dustin Davis, 35, of Commerce, Ga. Rogers is accused of throwing one punch that dropped Davis during a brawl in front of 370 15th St. SE late Tuesday. Davis struck his head on the grass and suffered a brain injury, according to police. He died Wednesday at an Iowa City hospital. Questions remained about why Rogers, who has a lengthy criminal record, has not spent more time in prison for past offenses. In 2004, police said he tried to stab another man to death outside of a Hy-Vee store in Cedar Rapids. Originally charged with attempted murder, Rogers was convicted of a lesser charge, carrying a weapon, and served 5 ½ months in prison. Linn County Attorney Jerry Vander Sanden could not be reached to comment on the details of the case. More details sur...

-jennifer hemmingsen -gazetteonline.com An anti-21 leader sent out a curious press release today, accusing the University of Iowa and Iowa City Council of teaching 18-year-old college students how to binge drink: “Even though most are not of age to enter a bar, freshman witness firsthand and participate in the same dangerous levels of drinking committed by alumni, older adults, and various fans, all while the University of Iowa and the City Council turn a blind eye,” he wrote. “This sends a dangerous message to the newly arrived students that binge drinking is not only tolerated, but celebrated.” “ I love tailgating and hawkeye football with all my heart, but when you have 7 year olds bartending, middle aged people fighting, and mothers of two winning chugging contest and the city and school encourage it, what kind of message does that send to someone who is 18 and has only been on campus for a few weeks,” Pfaltzgraf asked me when I e-mailed him for more information about YESS position...

Janitors who cleaned out sports lockers at Washington High School in Cedar Rapids,Ia just before the long holiday weekend went a little too far. They accidentally tossed out football cleats and other personal equipment belonging to nearly a dozen student-athletes. School officials say the value of the equipment they’ll need to replace is $1,000 to $1,500. Parents who discovered the problem Monday found out the newly new equipment went to a local resale charity rather than the trash. Arenas said she called the store immediately, but found out customers had already snapped up a bargain and everything missing was already sold. Maybe they were Mexican and thought they should toss it because the world cup is over?
