    ROY APP

    Seems a bit odd to just give people money for nothing in return. These guys could make decent money if they were able to sell game-worn, autographed items and/or other items. Seems like a reasonable way for the U to spend some of their NIL money on additional equipment - tell the athletes that...

    F'n CMC. Got him at pick 3 in one league (thought I had the steal of the draft) and first overall in my other league. My wife had him in her second league as well. Really put a lot of eggs in that basket. Boo.

    All Things 2024-25 Vikings Regular Season Thread

    I'm not ready to start crowing yet about this as he's still young and not super experienced. However, it would be hilarious if the "Packer way" of dealing with QB's came back to bite them in the butt. The landscape now of how you deal with QB's and when you pay and how much you have to pay them...

    Hetherman to Rutgers??? Say it ain't so....

    PJ also has not used up all of his assistant pool money the last two years.

    Official 2025 Roster Movement Thread - Who's In and Who's Out?

    Email from the U says they signed 20 guys today, not 21. Haven’t had time to see who was the odd one out.

    Rob Manfred Claims There's 'Buzz' Around 'Golden At-Bat' Rule Among MLB Owners

    True dat. Probably would have made more sense to reference that than the NBA…that’s what I get for ranting after midnight. Point being, make the penalties not money related. If you’re in the luxury tax, you’re likely not super concerned with money first and foremost. Reduce their international...

    Gophers ‘absolutely’ will seek a quarterback in NCAA transfer portal

    I think it says more about Wittke than Lindsay. I would assume they're looking for a more experienced backup in case Lindsey goes down or struggles. The way Fleck framed it last year when looking for a QB was way different. Going into next year, their depth is RS-FR, RS-SO, RS-SO (walk on), FR...

    All Things 2024-25 Vikings Regular Season Thread

    I've resigned the fact that the Lions will win the division. I want to see the Pack get back to spot #7, which would mean the Commies have to jump them. That would put the Pack going to Philly in round 1. If the Commies could jump the Pack, it would be Packers/Philly, Commies/Seahawks...

    Rob Manfred Claims There's 'Buzz' Around 'Golden At-Bat' Rule Among MLB Owners

    Here’s a wild idea: how about they just institute a hard salary cap and salary floor so it’s actually fair? But nope, adding asinine rules, that’ll win ‘em back! Or better yet- there’s no salary cap, but if you go over a certain threshold (think luxury tax in the NBA), teams at the bottom can...

    I'm assuming they mentioned on TV, but at least on the radio broadcast last night they said Winston had a Browns record for passing yards in a game. In typical Browns fashion, the record was made during a loss.

    Moved closer to home, but yeah, didn't really pan out there. Had 1 catch in 10 games his senior year.

    Purdue Fires Ryan Walters

    He’s been compensated over $8MM in two years to compile a 5-19 record, and he’s owed a buyout of over $9MM. That means Purdue is essentially paying him $3.4MM for every win he coached. You may think it’s too soon (it’s not), but sympathy is an odd feeling considering the circumstances. He got...

    41-54 Record coming into the year

    Just brace yourself for the mantra of “if only he could have kept the core together, he would have been successful” for years to come. It’ll never be CBJs fault, nor will those people ever be wrong. Ever.

    A forecast of Gophers football’s biggest needs once transfer portal opens

    I’m assuming he’s back. But if he leaves, yikes. The drop off from #45/6 to everybody else is dramatic. #9 is passable, but not a difference maker as of yet.

    Should Minnesota vs Wisconsin stay on Black Friday

    Heck no. Really F’s with Thanksgiving plans. Tolerable for a road game, a big no-no if it was a home game.

    POST GAME THREAD!!!!!! GOPHERS BEAT badgers AT wisconsin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    By far the biggest game of the year, every year. So a win today pretty much makes the season for me. The mini axe that travels between my dirty Wisconsinite in-laws and myself will now be proudly displayed on my mantle for the next year!

    All Things P.J. Fleck Rumor Mill Thread - Listed as Candidate for Other Jobs

    This. I still like PJ, but I'm also not enthralled with continuing to raise his buyout. Call his bluff; if he leaves, he leaves. Coyle can't afford to give PJ any more money; he's going to have to hire a competent basketball coach with a legitimate B1G salary in a few months.
