Now, I know the DMR likes to give the University of Iowa credit for doing good things, but this is a bit of a stretch....

"The 26-year-old Oregon swimmer adjusted her goggles, waved at the crowd and jumped into lane 2 of the pool before the start of the Special Olympics USA National Games race at the University of Iowa campus in Ames."

Wouldn't that be Iowa State University in Ames?

That is embarassing, inexcusable, and the DM Rag should be ashamed of themselves. Brian Hernandez is now is my least favorite writer ever.

I just sent a letter to the editor of the DMR. We'll see if it gets published. I don't know why this has gotten me so steamed, but it has.

I sometimes wonder if they do stuff like this on purpose, just to irk readers. They probably have a pool going on how long before they get a complaint.
