Slen-
Came across your blog today. Good stuff. Agree with you that Iowa put up a good fight.
Noticed you were a college basketball fan. Hoping you could add a blogroll link to my College Basketball Blog, http://collegeball.blogspot.com. I'd very much appreciate a permanent link on your site.
And would gladly return the favor, adding a link from my site to yours.
Thanks kindly!
