Iowa hates children. Dashes their dreams

by Winfield Featherston on Dec 21, 2009 8:00 AM EST

Josh Nesbitt doesn't smile because Flat Stanley tells Josh Nesbitt not to smile.

Earlier this October, a 5th grade girl in Florida sent the Georgia Tech a Flat Stanley as part of a school project. Nobody ever thought what Flat Stanley would bring to Georgia Tech.

"I guess you could call him a good-luck charm" said A-back Anthony Allen, who like Ansley, is from Tampa.

Stanley now travels with the team and has helped the Jackets win the ACC and reach the Orange Bowl. Iowa, on the other hand, has refused to even acknowledge the child who sent them a Flat Stanley. Tsk Tsk Hawkeyes.Why do you hate the kids?

"The thought of a child disgusts me. They smell bad too" said Iowa defensive back Amari Spievey

Iowa Head Coach Kirk Ferentz has refused to return our phone calls.

As noted in the caption

Flat Stanley told Josh not to smile.

I took my niece’s Flat Stanley to the Jim Beam distillery. My sister-in-law was not amused.

Quentin sims is smiling uneasily over there and sneaking a peak at nesbitt to make sure he doesnt gouge his eyes out and slice his throat open with that flat stanley figure. again, i will tell iowa fans-josh nesbitt does not show emotion.
