  6. kdubb18 asked:

    Are you a Sooners fan or a Cowboys fan?

    I grew up in Lawrence, so I’m actually a KU fan at heart. I’ve been a national basketball writer for a few years, but a few of my biases still lurk in the background. One is that I still secretly enjoy watching Mizzou get beat. I also have a visit to Gallagher-Iba as a major unchecked option on my bucket list.

    This dunk can only be described as ferocious. 

  8. Street Commish: “Mr. Mayor! Iowa had four Korvers. We need one more Zeller!”
Mrs. Zeller: “Aw, hell to the naw.”

From the Washington Times-Herald:

Lori Zeller, Mayor Joe Wellman, Steve Zeller, and Street Commissioner Ernie Evans discuss the addition of Cody Zeller to the sign on North SR57 commemorating the Indiana High School Mr. Basketballs from Washington. Cody Zeller’s name was added to this sign along with the other four signs on South SR57, SR 257, and East and West US Highway 50.

So this happened. Congrats, Cody!
