So...What Are You Guys Doing Next Week?

Next week the Boilers take on Iowa in the first Big Ten conference game of the season. And, frankly, Iowa is so terrible, we don't think we can watch. Seriously, the bloodshed may be enough to give this one a "mature audiences only" rating. I know I don't like watching baby seals get clubbed, but maybe you sick bastards do.

Does anyone want to write the game recap column? Seriously, we're offering this up in the hopes that someone who is brave enough to watch that game is willing to share their observations. We're afraid watching Iowa basketball might make us worse hoopsters than we already are and, well, we can't afford that.

Actually, none of the above is true, except that we do want someone to write about the game. Fact is, b-dowd and I will both be becoming papas and Tim is out of town antiquing that week.

So if you're interested, drop us a line at BoiledSports@gmail.com and tell us you're up for it. If we get multiple offers, we'll have to figure out a way to decide. I'm thinking arm-wrestling. Only requirements are that you need to offer insight and opinions and not just a stat line -- people can get that from the worldwide leader. Remember, they come to Chotchkie's for the atmosphere and the attitude. That's what the flair's about. It's about fun.

I wouldn't mind posting a recap.

A little background? I'm a Boiler alum in the great southwest. I co-host a blog with a friend called College of Idiots which is a humorous take on all things Cubs and whatever else we feel like talking about. I have been on hiatus for a while and this might be the perfect opportunity to get back into blogging.

Anyway, just let me know. Wouldn't mind helping out some fellow Boilers.

About Iowa, did anyone see the crowd at their game last night? I don't know what they officially reported but there couldn't have been more than 3K people at the game. It was pretty sad.

I believe this SIUE club that we will see tonight will be more of a massacre in comparison. This SIUE team already lost by 20ish to the Ball State crew we saw on Saturday. It's sad we get to play a bunch of baby seals before playing mountain men from WV.
