    Here's a comp for Romero, but I think this deal isn't going to happen. We've had quite a few "swing and a miss" attempts at signing players - we just aren't offering as much as other teams, so the players are landing elsewhere.

    All Things MN United Season Thread

    We're finally adding a new player to the team - we desperately need a new possession midfielder, and looks like we've found on in Ho-Yeon Jeong who's coming to us from the K-league (Korea). Here's his K-stats compared to Trapp and Dotson's MLS-stats.

    B1G vs SEC

    That a Wrap on This Year's B1G Domination over the SEC The fat lady has sung: B1G goes 11-6 in bowl games. More wins than any other conference. SEC goes 8-7, barely a winning record. B1G with back-to-back national championships, from two different teams. B1G has three times the number of teams...

    Max Brosmer 2025 NFL Draft: Scouting Report For Minnesota Golden Gophers QB

    Max's two greatest assets are (a) being able to quickly move through the progressions of the pass options in a play and (b) having an extremely quick release. And to me, those are the two biggest differentators in NFL QBs. As an example, Darnold doesn't have (a) in his toolkit, if the primary...

    Who do you want to win the Super Bowl ?

    Crap, I was having a tough time with the 0-4, and now it’s 0-6. Guess we at least have the Lynx winning some titles.

    Who do you want to win the Super Bowl ?

    The Bills at least have the dignity of knowing that since their last Super Bowl lost, their team hasn't also gone 0-4 in the conference championship games... ... being a fan of MN sports is hard, but we do have the awesome Gopher's dance team (that and the Gophers won the national bass fishing...

    Who do you want to win the Super Bowl ?

    The Bills, because their fan base has had to suffer the indignity of them going 0-4 in Super Bowl games. No fan base should have to endure that shame.

    American Single Malt Whiskey

    Starting today, American Single Malt Whiskey is now a thing. The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau has made it official. Under the new rule, a liquor can only be legally defined as an American single malt whiskey if it’s made from a fermented mash of 100% malted barley produced in the...

    2024-25 Wild Season

    After the hit, no one challenged McDavid, no enforcer to let Edmonton know we wouldn't be pushed around. I get he's their star, but he used a cheap hit to send one of guys to the locker room. I didn't see anyone even line him into the boards.

    Former Players on Culture

    Are there any draft pick stats as to which college team's players "over-produce" vs "under-produce", meaning the players end up doing better or worse than the slot in which they were drafted? It seems that with the Winfield's and such that have come from Fleck's teams, the Gophers are a solid...

    4 vs 12 Teams

    Twenty teams in the playoffs is too much dilution of the importance of the regular season for me. This means one of Missouri/Ole Miiss/Bama/LSU/SC/Texas A&M, who all went 5-3 in the SEC, would have been in this year's playoffs. Per your plan, there are 20 teams in the playoff field, 12 of which...

    4 vs 12 Teams

    I like that each conference only gets one team into the bye round. In college football, the rich get richer. Keeping it to one-team-only helps to give more visibility to conferences other than B1G and SEC, which I think is needed to keep college football strong. If the playoffs end up being...

    B1G vs SEC

    And with Texas losing, the SEC is done playing. Here's the wrap on B1G vs SEC: The BIG ends up going 5-1 vs SEC in all bowl games And 2-0 vs SEC in the playoff games. The B1G won those playoff games vs the SEC by an average of 19.5 points. The B1G advanced two teams to the semi-finals, the SEC...

    All Things 2024-25 Vikings Regular Season Thread

    I'd give it about 90% odds that it gets moved. The NFL is justifiably worried about its image - having a game next to burned-out areas isn't a good image. Move the game, have a moment of silence before the game, and it would look much better. I'm guessing that the Rams will also leave LA early...

    Any stats on how many screen plays we ran during that game? If they're blitzing 6 players, a screen play is an obvious call.
