COMMENTARY: AEW Dynamite delivers amazing show despite ongoing sports crisis

In a world where sports content has gone dark because of the COVID-19 coronavirus, there are those who soldier on regardless. This was the case Wednesday for All Elite Wrestling's weekly TV broadcast of Dynamite. I tuned in to the empty arena shows that their competitors at WWE produced for Friday Night Smackdown and Monday's Raw. As a result, they were incredibly disappointing, crowd or no crowd. And the kicker: no live wrestling from Dynamite's Wednesday night competition, WWE NXT. […]

EDITORIAL: Ballot access campaigns for alternative parties are about to become much harder

(Heartland Newsfeed) -- As each state is slowly making restrictions on events with attendance over a specific threshold as the result of the COVID-19 coronavirus, those restrictions have a wide-spreading impact on alternative parties wishing to gain ballot access on the general election ballot in November. Thursday, a joint press release was pushed out jointly by Libertarian Party of Iowa chairman Mike Conner, Jr. and Iowa Green Party co-chair Erin Young regarding COVID-19 and how this will impact their candidate […]

Italian connoisseurs choose leisurely Lucca

On a sunny summer evening in Lucca, Italy, I was inspired by the simple joy of watching an old man bicycling with his granddaughter atop the wide, fortified wall that once protected this proud city from its enemies — and now seems to corral its Old World charm. Then, on rented bikes, a group of chatty tourists frolicked by. Their enthusiasm was contagious. Squinting at the energy in their smiles, surrounded by dazzling sunshine, it struck me that the sun […]

EDITORIAL: Eating crow over WWE Elimination Chamber predictions

(Heartland Newsfeed) -- In the relentless cycle that is the 24-hour news cycle, it's definitely too late for me to write a review for WWE's recent PPV Elimination Chamber. In a preview of the event, as published on Ambush Sports, I made some predictions for the show: Shayna Baszler in the women's Elimination Chamber match Braun Strowman would retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship in a handicap match against Sami Zayn, Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura The New Day would win back […]

EDITORIAL: Total chaos in the newsroom and home studio, weighing goods and bads

(Heartland Newsfeed) -- The past few weeks have been total, absolute chaos -- but for some odd reason, this chaos has actually been good for me. That's rare. I have to evaluate the goods against the bads and that's fine. (Even if they serve as separate entities part of an inner monologue.) GOOD JAKE: I've secured a broadcast deal with iMedia1 Radio Network to carry football games from a semi-professional league called the Gridiron Developmental Football League, with coverage starting with […]

EDITORIAL: The road to BotchaMania LIX is a hilarious one, but angers voters as well

(Heartland Newsfeed) -- I sincerely wish I was kidding by calling every single presidential election in our nation's history as a botch. I'm not. (And for you wrestling fans out there, sorry - I wasn't referring to the annual botch festival known as WrestleMania....sorry to burst that bubble.) I couldn't help but write something after I saw a Facebook post from Libertarian Party national chairman Nicholas Sarwark: Just in case you don't quite know what I mean when I refer […]

COMMENTARY: Decatur limiting public comments is the bastardization of transparency. You should be concerned.

(Heartland Newsfeed) -- If you live in Decatur, Ill., you should be concerned. Concerned about your First Amendment rights to redress, petition and criticize your government for the ever-increasing pile of wrongdoings they have done to you. During Monday night's meeting of the Decatur City Council, mayor Julie Moore-Wolfe and three aldermen -- Lisa Gregory, Chuck Kuhle and Pat McDaniel -- voted to limit public comments to only the beginning of the meeting, meaning no public time to address meeting […]

COMMENTARY: Ford, Wilcox want to reform ballot access petitioning threshold law

(Heartland Newsfeed) -- For the past several years, I've been quite vocal on reforms to the Illinois Election Code (see December 12 and December 30 commentaries). I've been taking charge on getting support for House Bill 3535 (co-sponsored by Anne Stava-Murray and Carol Ammons) and House Bill 3828 (co-sponsored by Allen Skillicorn, Jonathan Carroll and David Welter) and went into full attack dog mode in November. These bills call for the elimination of the ballot access petitioning threshold multiplier for […]

Buoyant, booming Belfast

Belfast, Northern Ireland's capital city, is perhaps best known for the sectarian strife that took place here during the era of the "Troubles," and as the birthplace of the Titanic (and many other ships that didn't sink). While these two claims to fame aren't too uplifting, Belfast's story is hardly a downer. This unsinkable city, just two hours away from Dublin by train, makes for a fascinating day trip. Wandering through cheery downtown modern-day Belfast, it's hard to believe that the bright […]
