    No Sitting Out for Transfers

    I have a 5G flip-phone that's jim dandy. As for VCRs, purchased the last ones made that not only played-recorded VHS tapes but also plays-records DVDs...even records VHS tapes to DVD...so it does digital conversion. Saw an article about the last VHS manufacturer phasing them out and grabbed...

    OJ Simpson

    In one of those "always remember where you were moments"...the Billds were at the family's very modest one-room cabin with the TV on in the background. We're outside Grand Rapids and in those days there were only 2 channels out of Duluth. Suddenly the national network broke in (ABC methinks)...

    All Things Emmanuel Karmo (Robbinsdale Cooper HS) Recruitment Thread

    Very anecdotal dataset but after living in Robbinsdale for 30+ years had the opportunity to have my groceries bagged at Cub by all kinds of kids' organizations, including the Cooper and Armstrong FB teams, over the years. Have to say in general when I query a Cooper/Armstrong player about the...

    Potential NFL Kickoff/Onside Kick Rule Changes

    Came across an article with a tutorial on rule changes being considered by the NFL owners going into next season. This may be old news for the diehard Xs & Os GHers but found these changes interesting for kickoffs and onside kicks. Not quite like innovating the forward pass but certainly see...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT INDIANA STATE NIT IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Not a BB guy but it seems like free throws should be a gimme. I know the pros miss them too.

    247 predicts Gophers will go 1-8 and finish 17th in Big Ten

    Well, go 2-7 and it's improvement from this bar. Hard to believe in March but it is a brave new B1G starting this fall so anything and everything is on the table...including 5-4 and better...

    A Dapper Punishment

    Have to admit went through all the posts. Where my mind went was the cluster year that ultimately resulted in PJ getting hired. I had my issues at the time with how the new AD handled things with the exiting coach, but had an open mind on the new HC and what he might bring. So far no clusters...

    How long will the Big Ten Conference stay in tact.

    Don't recall the B1G ever being tactless but I-O-W-A fans probably disagree for that invalid fair catch decision by the refs earlier this season. Nice to have you home Floyd in Dinkytown, who would never be confused for some variety of hard tack.

    U President Search

    The Billds were married on beach 5 minutes north of Playa del Carmen before the Maya Riviera was trendy. What does that say about us? :p

    U President Search

    Coach should present her with an oar on the first visit before the walls get filled with all her other stuff. Good luck President Cunningham.
