    Please don't, I'm enjoying it.

    All Things 2025 Minnesota Twins In-Season Thread

    I really enjoyed last night's broadcast without a PBP guy - just baseball guys nerding out, and Pablo was great to listen to. Wouldn't mind if they occasionally made that a thing.

    Jug, Floyd, and Axe in the Top 51 rivalries of college football per The Athletic.

    It's not a ranking of the trophies, it's a ranking of the best rivalries. Top 10 is pretty good - although OSU-PSU at #8 even those fan bases agree that is laughable to have them ranked that high. Also I think most Hawkeye fans would agree that Iowa-Wisconsin should not be ranked higher than...

    All Things 2025 Minnesota Wild Offseason

    Not sure I agree with that assessment. They didn’t reach the heights we wanted, but I don’t put that blame on those guys. People forget how irrelevant the Wild were before those two arrived.

    Fleck's Good Wins at Minnesota

    Who wants to start the “good losses” thread?

    Still No Statement from Ben Johnson

    Childress got 2 OC roles after his time here. He had a winning record as a head coach and got the Vikings the closest they have been to the Super Bowl in the 21st century. I’m not saying he’s anything special but he’s certainly not in Khan/Ben territory, not even close. If there’s any modern...

    Fleck's bad losses at MN

    Most of the games listed are also a play or two from swinging the other way, just like many of our wins are a play or two from being losses. Just how it goes.

    I can't imagine the players union would be thrilled about McDavid taking $12M/year.

    Fleck's bad losses at MN

    I think if you looked at most mid-level programs you would find that they tend to have a couple of these a year as well. Doesn't mean we can't criticize, but as far as whether I think it is a concerning trend, I would say no. Even on the list that you laid out, some of these were bowl teams so...

    BYU QB Reportedly Transferring

    I don't like BYU/the Mormon church any more than the next guy but these athletes know what they are getting into as it pertains to the honor code. He admitted to a violation of the code and is receiving punishment.

    BYU QB Reportedly Transferring

    At the time of his deciding it was believed to be badger football vs gopher hockey. A couple years without hockey and some football related injuries probably changed that a bit. I'm not tuned in with what went into his decision and he's a fine enough player but I think he's a much less highly...

    BYU QB Reportedly Transferring

    Fun fact about that Jake Ratzlaff - he has had the privilege of losing to the gophers 6 times now in his athletic career. He lost the axe game twice in 2021 and 2022, then decided to play hockey at UST where they have twice been swept by the gophers in his time there. Not really relevant to...

    All Things Immaculate Grid-related (MLB, NBA, NFL)

    For whatever reason I could not come up with a Philadelphia only one team guy. Even Mike Schmidt for some odd reason I thought had a stint somewhere else. I do have to pat myself on the back for pulling a 0.06% on the bottom right corner with Brian Buscher.

    All Things 2025 Minnesota Wild Offseason

    Very interesting. Can't say this excites me a ton given how bad he was last year, but I guess we can hope that was an anomaly as he was still fairly productive prior to Detroit.

    Top 10 Big Ten Coaches in 2025 (9. PJ Fleck, Minnesota)

    I actually like Rhule but there's nothing he has accomplished to put him ahead of PJ. Riley is a weird one because he has made multiple playoff appearances but also walked into a great spot at OU. Not sure I would argue hard one way or another. Moore is purely there because it's Michigan...
