Watch the clock carefully and make up a new theme song for every minute as it passes by: “6:21 is the tiiiiiime . . . for loooooove.” “6:22 is my affliction . . . my pain is your addiction!” “Hey there, mama, lock the door, cause don’tcha know it’s 6:24?” “Twinkle twinkle, piles of sticks, it is now 6:26.” “Carry on, carry on, 6:27 carry on.”

ATTACK OF THE 3-HEADED QUARTERBACK
The Des Moines Register reports on the wide-freakin’-open quarterback race at Iowa State this spring. They’d be fools to start anybody other than Austin Flynn, who was the only Cyclone QB to show much potential last season. Cyclone fans, however, have come to expect the inexplicable. There’s even been talk of a 3-player rotation, an idea that melts the brain of any football fan.
