The Capital One Mascot Open

Posted by Σ on October 05th, 2007

Most of you know Cy won the title of “Most Dominant College Mascot on Earth” not too long ago. CBS Sportsline hosted the previous poll for top mascot, Capital One has it’s own: The Capital One Mascot Open.
Cy barely beat the Spartans in the showdown, getting 56% of the votes. The Ames based Daily Tribune […]

Hawkize Big Ten Week 1 in Review

Posted by Trashboy on September 04th, 2007

Each week (Usually on Tuesday, sometimes Wednesday depending on drink specials on Monday night), Hawkize will publish a “Week in Review,” in which one of the writers will weigh in on the weeks’ previous action:
..From the “Oh, so obvious” file:”
MICHIGAN- What can you say that hasn’t already been said? Appalachian State. REALLY, Michigan? REALLY? I […]

The Iowa State Cyclones have crappy uniforms.

Posted by Guy Montenegro on August 24th, 2007

I’m not a homosexual (NTTATWWT), but I do enjoy observing college football uniforms. I prefer the classic style of uniform; uniforms like those worn by Michigan, Iowa, Ohio State, Oklahoma, and Texas. Oregon gets a new uniform every year, and they always suck. Seriously, what’s wrong with just picking something and sticking with it? That […]

IOWA CITY- Federal agents stormed the alley behind Brothers’ Bar and Grill in downtown Iowa City on Thursday morning to detain Andyram, 21, charging him with being involved with Michael Vick’s dogfighting ring.
The fallen Hawkize superstar is the latest in a group of 8 celebrities to be indicted on the dogfighting charges.
“I’m not drunk,” Andyram […]

Iowa players drink alcohol.

Posted by Guy Montenegro on August 23rd, 2007

The Iowa City Press-Citizen has reviewed the Facebook sites of 40 University of Iowa football players and discovered - gasp! - photos of players consuming alcohol. From the Press-Citizen article:
Two photos show players drinking shots of alcohol. Another photo shows a player “shotgunning” a beer. In another, a player and a group of friends are […]

Week 2: Why ask why? - Friends

Posted by Σ on July 10th, 2007

Hudhawk made a solid comment last week about ISU being a “little brother.” I laughed, pretty hard actually, for a few seconds… twenty to twenty-three to be exact… I re-read the comments again (all two of them) tonight, and it dawned on me that ISU and Iowa will never be friends.
I have my own personal […]

Week 1: Why ask why? - ISU

Posted by Σ on July 03rd, 2007

So I was sitting on the toilet tonight pondering the many things I do while I shit… one of which is always “Why do I hate ISU so much?”
While I was sitting there, producing reason after reason, I asked myself, “Why ask why?”
Then I thought, why not ask EVERYONE this same question? Which was followed […]

Bastardization: Ohio State

Posted by Σ on September 28th, 2006

Continuing my hatred for not only the state of Ohio but also Ohio State, I have begun bastardizing the Buckeyes. A lot of people who know me beyond ‘Sigma’ think I am so pro-Hawkeye that I am anti-anything (and frankly, everything) that opposes them… this is true, and also a real life example of being […]

Bastardization: ISU (part 1)

Posted by Σ on September 15th, 2006

Last year, I posted a drunken rhyme about my hate for ISU and my thoughts on the upcoming game… This year I figured since I LIVE in Ames (I’m truely sorry Hawk fans) and have to put up with their shit day-in and day-out, that I am more than entitled to flip shit back, so […]

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 […]

Happy President’s Day from Hawkize

Posted by Mikehawk on February 21st, 2006

We know- we’re a day late on the wishes, but Andyram was drunker than snot last night and only was able to send me this via instant messanger:
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 […]

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, […]

Andyram for AD at ISU? That’s right!

Posted by Andyram on September 15th, 2005

Iowa State, after the recent resignation of Bruce Van De Velde, is looking for a new Athletic Director. Personally, I think I’m the man for the job. Why, you ask? Well, it’s not because I like Iowa State–it’s because it puts me in a position to make things right, the way the […]

Whose Side Are You On, Johnson County?

Posted by Andyram on August 19th, 2005

First off, fuck Johnson county.
I’ve got a few things that piss me off about Johnson county. I swear they are the most anti-Hawkeye part of Iowa City, hell all of eastern Iowa. For starters, I’m sure a few of you have spent a night or two (or seven, in my case) […]
