Most vivid memory of Sampson is on a missed free throw. The damn ball came off the rim and bounced on the floor about two feet in front of him. To be charitable, I guess he might have somehow been tied up with whoever he was boxing; but it sure looked like he couldn't bother to make the effort...

Ah, Wisconsin. Home of Jeffrey Dahmer and Ed Gein.

Wish the Vikings would have had the draft choices to take Justin. One of my favorite Gophers since Winfield.

Chip Scoggins has a good column on changing his mind about the Final Four team and how it's time to hang the banner. (Imagine it's behind the Strib's paywall) "Scoggins: Williams Arena needs to get a piece of its history back It’s time to move forward, in this era of college sports no longer...
