The Tale of Two Teams

5 and 1, 5 and 1 should be Iowa States record in the Big 12. Woulda, coulda, shoulda just like our Football team for the last 2 years. If I was to tell you that the Cyclones had won two of their first three road games in conference play, what would you guess their record was? 5-1? 4-2? Did you ever think 3-3.
Maybe it's the pressure to perform in front of the home crowd, but this is truly the tale of two teams. The timid home team and the take control and dominate away team. I wish we could mix these teams together and have a 17-2 team. The good sign is that the talent is there and if put together in time this team could contend in the tourney. Stinson lead the way with 27 points, but the thing to take away with this win is how good the freshmen have been playing the last 3 games. Sure I wish Wayne would talk to Taggert about his 3 point shot( like never take another one) but can't really complain about their play. Actually I'm already looking forwaqrd to next year when they have some beef on them. Kansas is up next and with a win at hme against a SUBPAR Jayhawk team could lead to 3 straight w's with the Cyclones moving back up in the race for 2nd in the Big 12.

TV question: Why do some people who I think are hot have plastic surgery. Case in point: Judith Miller from Scrubs and Drew Carey has always been hot but I've notice recently she has had some work done and it bugs the shit out of me. This is the same thing Meg Ryan did. Don't these people have people around them to help with their self esteem. Should Dr.s be allowed to cut on these people. Does any one in Hollywood have any common sense.

Well hope to have a new cartoon up tomorrow and I'll be on the West Coast next week.
Saturday v. Kansas.
Love,
Chuck
