True. But it's not even remotely incumbent on FBS football programs to prop FCS teams up with such paycheck games. Ditto for basketball.

I honestly don't recall even 1 post insuating that "only" Minnesota does this nor anything close to that sentiment. I lament that it happens at all. For any program.

True. Actually, it was over earlier than that.

I don't think that the Go/No Go decision hinges on the quality of the opponent. If it's borderline and there's any risk to further injury, I think he'll sit, especially since there is a Bye week on the horizon. Sure they'll need him for Cal. Being ready for Rutgers is far more important in the...

If I HAD to bet if Taylor will play or not Saturday, I would bet NO. Especially since it's Non-Conference followed with a Bye week.

My complaint is NOT that the Gophers schedule such an opponent, it's that EVERYONE schedules this type of fodder. As a consumer, it's a terrible product. As a Season Ticket holder, I don't have the ability to opt out of funding this type of contest. It's always been somewhat of a joke given...

Well, not quite. A little more than 6 minutes to go. Mercy storm.

While I agree in principle that leaves room for 2 cupcakes which is 2 too many, IMO. Though Oklahoma State a P4 school also got walloped in a similar fashion by Oregon.

This Scoreboard msg is an indication of the new reigning designation. They didn't need to apologize directly to me though. #1 fan.

Western Illinois looked way better than this Northwestern Illinois squad. UFF da.

Looking at the 1919 White Sox, I think the only 2 from the starters I haven't called upon are Ray Schalk and Nemo Liebold. Old Nemo was also on the 1924 Washington Senators, World Series Champions, so there's some Twins options.

So, do you watch the Masters on ESPN during their 1st & 2nd Round coverage? Sounds like the Augusta broadcasts have about the same limited commercial inventory as they planning for Red Zone? In general I don't get the disdain for ESPN on this matter. Blame Zygi Wilf and his 31 other NFL...

Gasper was on a heater. 3 RBI last night.

Twins are 11 games out of the Wild Card with 23 to play. All over but the shouting, just a waste of time. - PW

Newsflash, the bullpen coughed up a 7-4 lead in the 7th on the way to a 11-8 defeat. The first 4 game sweep ever by the White Sox in Minnesota. Also, the reason Jeffers left the game was due to concussion symptoms after taking 2 foul balls off the mask/head. Uffda.

The dozens of fans at Target Field tonight are missing an exciting contest. Gasper who replaced Jeffers (not sure what happened) drove in the go ahead runs for now. Wallner hit yet another solo HR. The beat goes on. Also reported, Lopez will be on the bump tomorrow in KC. 6-man rotation, for...

Facts are facts. Lay off the sanctimony.

Quick reviews of 3 films seen recently. Eden - Good. Liked it. Shot beautifully, with very solid performances by the entire cast. Opie Cunningham sure knows how to direct a film. Caught Stealing - Very good. I liked this popcorn thriller more than I expected that features twists and turns...

Lots of SKOR North chatter that Rocco is a goner.

Trending towards a chance of showers on Saturday. Boo.
