The Hawkize National Athletic Commission?

Posted by Mikehawk on June 18th, 2006

Here at Hawkize.com, we’re all about following rules, regulations, and being law abiding citizens.
Now that I have the humor out of the way, lets move on to the serious business having to do with those rules and regulations. Last weekend, Iowa quarterback Drew Tate aced the sixth hole at Finkbine Golf Course in Iowa City […]

Hawkize 2.0 Ideas

Posted by Colestal on May 25th, 2006

Over the past few months, the Hawkize Design Team has been collecting ideas and scouring the web for things to implement in Hawkize version 2.0. This post serves two purposes. One, to give you an idea of things we’ve been thinking of implementing and getting some feedback. And two, to give you […]

JOHNSTON - Officials from the National Weather Service held a press conference on Tuesday afternoon in Johnston to talk to the public about the storm that ravaged Iowa City on Thursday evening.

Colestal Survives F2 Cyclone

Posted by Colestal on April 15th, 2006

Unless you’ve been in a drunken haze for the past few days, you’ve probably heard by now that Iowa City just got ravaged by a tornado. Even then, you’ve probably still heard about it. I know this because Andyram called me (in his usual drunken haze) right after it went through. I […]

VANISHED!

AMES DESTROYED, CITY VANISHES OFF MAP
AMES, IOWA - Gone.
Vanished.
In the span of 30 minutes Thursday evening, the entire city of Ames, Iowa, home of Iowa State University, was wiped out by a catastrophic storm that reached epic proportions near it’s pinnacle.
Winds blew nearly 200 miles per hour as an F-33 tornado beared down upon the […]

Out with the old…in with the older?

Posted by Mikehawk on March 29th, 2006

As you may have heard by now, head Iowa wrestling coach Jim Zalesky’s contract will not be renewed at the end of the year. In his nine year tenure at Iowa, he won three national titles and finished in the Top 10 in the NCAA every year. As much as it hurts to […]

Jeff Horner Will Never Be Forgotten

Posted by Colestal on March 12th, 2006

I’ve been quiet for a long time, but no more. I wanted to give the basketball team a chance to prove their worth without me (publicly) saying so because I’m superstitious and I didn’t want to jinx them. In particular, I would like to make a few comments about Jeff Horner, a man […]

This is our senior day, too.

Posted by Mikehawk on February 24th, 2006

It’s the eve of the biggest basketball game in the past 20 years for Iowa. Tomorrow’s game at Illinois will probably determine whether Iowa is going to share the Big 10 title, something that they haven’t had alone since the Carter administration. The air should be buzzing with positive vibes, people should be […]

Andyram: dud e we shol do pres. day hawkizes
So, that’s what I gathered- he wanted to wish you all a wonderful President’s Day on behalf of all […]

Shameless Promotion

Posted by Colestal on February 12th, 2006

Hawkize has been around for over six months now, and we’ve had a little bit of success. Well…it depends on how you define success. If success is righteously pissing off a bunch of Iowa State fans, we are very much a success. If success is giving people with hangovers something to laugh […]

Daily commentary: Feb. 11

Posted by Mikehawk on February 11th, 2006

I wrote yesterday about the Iowa basketball team being a pissed off group who was out to prove something.
Today, in Bloomington, they proved that they are nothing short of a diesel-powered engine of force that will be driving deep into the NCAA tournament. But guess what?
If you don’t have season tickets, you’re not invited.
I […]

Daily commentary: Feb. 10

Posted by Mikehawk on February 10th, 2006

Well folks, it’s February 10 and the Iowa Hawkeyes are still in first place. If you would have asked 80 percent of Iowa fans at the beginning of the season if this scenario was going to be true, I think they would have laughed your ass all the way back to Hawkize.com.
Thank God, though, […]

When God pisses…

He obviously does it on Iowa State.

“He Gone!”
