The loss of divisions made Iowa’s loss feel ever so slightly less meaningful. I subconsciously thought “oh wow, we might have a chance,” (in regards to the now defunct B1G West). Then I remembers it’s just one big old mess of teams and regardless of what happens we are not in contention for...

Random The title of this had me thinking this was a Penguin reference from the new HBO series.

It’s just the ugly NIL one. I would buy a jersey if it was in the fashion of what is worn on field.

It really fucked with my outdoors planning.

Man, I am glad you warned me about this. That sounds so frustrating!

The Wire was so good! Omar was a great character....lots of depth. "The Boys of Summer" season gutted me.

Huh - I feel like this is always a talker, across sports! YMMV I guess. A lot of these athletes are in effect holding two jobs at once (academics and athletics) coupled with the strains of travel and break from routine.

I don't pay attention to betting lines very often - but I've heard Burns, and Scoggins both speak on this in the last few weeks and I put trust in their takes. So the travel from the west coast to the interior is a non factor for you, or just not for the last week?

I'm not arguing that we should have a high ranking - but it seems like most of these rankings are completely ignoring the travel factor. The Gophers got a W, and shouldn't be punished for it being ugly.

How early does this happen? The last few games I was there with thirty min to spare, but I’m usually not in the stadium much sooner than 15 min to kickoff.

The last three games the Gophers coaching staff have shown growth in their ability to make 2nd half adjustments. Is this a flash in the pan or indicative of true mindset change within PJ?

This is really tricky for me and has me considering all sorts of philosophical questions. None of what I say is directed at you individually, but at the hypocrisy I see in the conversation around gangster culture. On the one hand, I agree that venerating gangsters is a folly, and bad for our...

That call felt like a moment where I can only laugh at the absurdity of life.

I don’t have any idea why you are concluding that! Lol - no man, not at all. That was terrible.

Silly thing to argue about, so I won't take it past this - but recovering that onside kick at most (and in your own words) "sets ourselves up to win," it does not guarantee a different final outcome. Everything affects everything.

It's a dynamic you can't ignore. I think that will for sure be a factor as things develop further. There's gonna have to be a base salary decent enough for the regular guys.

This may seem silly - but one thing that always strikes me about sports talk is how we (fans/pundits/humans) tend to think of things as being on the same trajectory regardless of what tweaks we fantasize. Example - "We would have won if we didn't give up that sack." Or "If the ref didn't call...

I had to stop reading when you said “some of the blame.” It shouldn’t be all the blame, but it should be the lions share.

He’s pretty much all I could ask for in terms of a home grown Minnesota boy making good on his dreams. If he continues on this path he’ll be a folk hero who will absolutely have an impact on future in-state recruiting. It’s extremely hard not to cheer for the kid. Earlier this seasons hope...
