Hello and welcome back to all my “friends,” “family” and “readers” of “The Pants.”
I come to you with good and bad news. The bad news (for you and a lesser extent, myself) is I’m still employed by BHGP and SB Nation dot com. The good news (for me and only me) is they’re still allowing me to write about wagering on a bloodsport played by teenagers, so if you’re not familiar with what goes on in TAKE MY MONEY, you’d be best off wiping your browser and throwing your tablet outside uncle Jed’s trailer home now.
The college football season is under a month away, and while we’re still your one-stop-shop for all things Hawkeye football-related in this hype period, it’s important not to forget we gently encourage and even reward somewhat nefarious activities every now and then.
