Go Daddy

It seems the University of Iowa has bought some domain names:

Iowa's athletics department purchased domain rights to seven potential Web sites last December, costing the school $674.82. The domain sites are designed to protect high-profile coaches Kirk Ferentz (football), Steve Alford (men's basketball) and Lisa Bluder (women's basketball), as well as Athletics Director Gary Barta.

They include three versions of fire(insert name).com, and four versions of (insert name)mustgo.com. However, the rights to firestevealford.com were unavailable when the department made the purchase.

Gee. The Steve Alford rights were taken? I guess they don't want people linking to www.firestevealford.com. I'm sure they don't want Alumni linking to www.firestevealford.com. And I am certain they don't want Almuni who won't donate to the university's athletic department until Steve Alford has long departed encouraging people to visit www.firestevealford.com.

Oh. It's a nice site. Go check it out.
