    Or get Wallner a 1B mitt and get Jenkins or Rodriguez into the OF. This guy's like Carlos Santana, with much less to offer defensively. But he does somehow have a Silver Slugger award on his resume (2022 as the NL DH).

    Would you accept a Michigan-level scandal/mess...

    Do I know going in? Like am I fully aware there's a price to be paid, or don't I learn that until after the fact? It doesn't change my answer, but others who haven't been broken and beaten down by life at every turn like I have might change their minds.

    Shooter: Gophers football attendance has decreased for a second straight season, averaging 46,519

    They were in the Reliaquest Bowl (Outback) in 2018 and 2022. Of course that was Leach, but their new coach is in year 3. Things have changed at lot, but it used to be Year 3 was the year when teams that changed coaches made big jumps. It's not a gimmie.

    All Things 2025-2026 Minnesota Timberwolves In-Season Thread

    Rudy Gobert is the kind of guy that lots of folks say, "You hate him, unless he's on your team." I'm getting to the point where I hate him even if he's on my team. The defense can be great. But I'm more than over the outright stupidity. And it doesn't help that he rebounds and attempts to...

    Saw a stat yesterday where Aubrey has outscored all but 6 WRs. As a guy who always punts kicker, that's a pretty interesting argument to actually look at drafting a kicker before my last pick next year. Ran the table in both my leagues, 6-4 to 10-4 in each. Both on bye this week. All but...

    Charley Walters is reporting that one of the Twins limited partners is a credit and investment firm, Varde Partners. At first glance, doesn't look like they'd be super interested in in spending whatever it takes to put a winning team on the field.

    No, he wasn't. UCLA dude who ended up at Tenn., Carson Beck and Mateer were rated higher.

    Nah, you're right. Everyone who watched one second of college football in 2024 knew whoever got the Cal Bears QB was winning the Big 10.
