Dogs Hunker Down, Twins Win, Party

• Wake me when there's actually something to a Carmelo Anthony trade rumor.
• How 'bout them Dogs?! Three straight wins for Drake, this one over the Fighting McDermotts.
• As feared, UNI appears done without the heartbeat of Lucas O'Rear.
• Chris Hassel set the over/under fans mark at the Twins Winter Caravan stop in Des Moines at four. Several hundred Twins fans showed. Another loss for Hassel Dazzle Productions.
• Jack Morris looked like he could still pitch game 7.
• Morris and the Twins stopped at Blank Children's Hospital. That's a great way to win more fans.
• The Hawkeye Huddle at 7-Flags featured recruiting night with coordinator Eric Johnson. People either get into recruiting or they don't. I'm a don't.
• The Dowling girls put a scare into #1 Des Moines East. A scare, but not a loss.
• Packers fans haven't planned Wednesday's party yet, but I'm sure they'll come up with something.
