If we start paying football and basketball players that’s the way it’s going to have to go. It’s not like athletic departments are operating on huge budget surpluses. The money made of revenue sports supports non revenue sports. Not saying that changes whether football or basketball players...

Not trying to pick on you dude but please take a 7th grade civics class, or at least consult Wikipedia, before you start making statements line this. The number of votes you get in the electoral college depends on the size of your population. The amount of land area is literally irrelevant.

Wrong. It only counts if you stand for at least 7 of the 9 innings.

Boston did a massive renovation to Fenway not too many years ago. Not sure about Duke though. I guess 1 out of 3 isn’t bad.

This.

And even more frightening that given all of recorded history from which to pick someone you’d like to learn leadership lessons from that someone would pick Hitler. Hitler was a genocidal maniac that led Germany literally down the path to hell on earth. That’s not leadership. I suppose Ted...

Great leaders do great things. Hitler didn’t do great things. Not much more complicated than this.

Excuse me while I go clean the sand from my eyes.

It’s ridiculously difficult physically to climb Mount Everest. Getting physically into the stadium I would rate as something closer to inconvenient.

Hopefully we can find the right guy and get some continuity. The DL this year was far and away our weakest positional group, IMO.

Fear does not exist in this dojo.

Fan voting for the Hobey Baker is open via the following link: http://www.hobeybaker.com/awards/the-hobey-baker-memorial-award/vote You can vote one time per day. Adam Wilcox is the only Minnesota candidate so lets try and give Wilcox as big of a boost as we can!

Anybody else think Indiana screwed up by going for two after the scored their last touchdown with around five minutes left? At the time I thought they should kick the extra point because if Minnesota ends up scoring a touchdown then they could win it with a field goal. Going for two puts them...

I don't know. I dislike the Sioux with every fiber of my body (especially the current regime) but it feels hypocritical to blame North Dakota for trying to do what's best for them when we were complicit in the move that set the whole thing off. After a few exchanges with Maturi I do believe...

I would probably change your post to say "It will not be fun to see Big Ten hockey soon. This will definitely not be the premier hockey conference." I agree with the part about the Bulldogs though.

Thanks for posting Mr. Gopher. I was sitting up in the suite level and saw that Sue fan at the end of the game. I thought that he was flipping Michigan players the bird but couldn't tell. Par for the course for fans of that persuasion. Go Dogs tomorrow. Lets keep the title in the WCHA.

That's exactly right. The U stands to lose much, much more than they do. And their AD was one of the major people pushing for the change. My understanding from what I heard today is that Maturi and the U were against moving out of the WCHA but were unable to keep it from happening.

But the only additional programming going from one station to two would be Big Ten college hockey. They already have basketball and football. Spreading it over two channels as opposed to one doesn't mean you are getting anything extra besides hockey and people aren't naive enough to believe...

There is no way that the Big Ten is going to be able to hold the cable and satellite programs hostage again over college hockey. Everyone caved the first time because of the widespread popularity of football and basketball. They are going to get laughed trying it a second time with hockey as...
