Some data to back up my statement:

Tarvaris Jackson (and his Super Bowl ring) says hi 👋

I'm not buying into the "doesn't have an arm" narrative. Max has a very short, compact and quick delivery, which IMO is huge for the NFL. Many of his throws were completely flat-footed - he didn't even move his front foot. That's all arm strength. That quick release is IMO a big deal in the...

Why would any coach prefer the college game over the NFL these days? NFL, you get to focus on just football. With college, you've got recruiting (and more recruiting, and more...), meeting with boosters to get NIL dollars, kids that can decide anytime to quit and transfer to another team...

I don't think having everyone gone next year except for Assuma is necessarily bad. The new coach really needs a clean slate of players, and with the portal, that can happen. Key is getting the new coach named early.

Or move indoors to USB Bank. I'm not sure how that'd work either, but at least it'd be warm...

There's also a big movement happening to push MLS into becoming a winter sport vs the current summer sport schedule. If it does, I'll be dropping my Loons season tickets. Not interested in going to an outdoor soccer game when it's that cold outside...

Lots of questions - few answers at this point in time. I think this would be in direct competition to MLS-Next, so I doubt they'd be a source of revenue. As an example, the Minneapolis Crows somehow survive as a semi-pro soccer team (I'm guessing very few people know they exist, along with...

Not sure where this fits in the threads, but since soccer is aka "football" I'll place it here. In a short summary, it looks like the B1G and ACC conferences are about to announce that their teams are going to in a sense leave the NCAA and join the US Soccer Federation to become a new semi-pro...

Lobo's defeated UNLV today to go to 17-4 on the season and 9-1 in the conference

So, the rumor mill seems to be focused on three players we'll be adding: Nicolás Romero, Ho-yeon Jeong and now Owen Gene. Owen is a classic 6, so he'd be a Will Trapp replacement once Trapp retires.

I'm a big fan of the Eels, and it just happened that Steve Perry turned up at the concert.

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.

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.

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'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...

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.

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...

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.

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...
