Astonishing Stanford lane violations—we counted nine seconds on #5.

And just like that he’s in the game.

Great story—Jim running a 6:42 mile when Van Brocklin made a bet he couldn’t break 7:00 and they counted down as though it was nip & tuck for him to break 7:00. Jim worked with my dad (who was a copy boy) and my grandfather at the Associated Press. Jim wouid always comment how he enjoyed...

The Vikings clinched the divisional title as a result of the win for a second consecutive year. According to Jim Klobuchar’s book “True Hearts & Purple Heads” there was no hot water for the post game showers—can you imagine after playing in the blizzard & mud-soaked conditions? Apparently, it...

Not since Minnesota won the Great Alaska Shootout 😀.

They fought on our side in the Civil War.

Talk about a great Williams Arena run: Julie Pearlt to Dick Jonckowski—70 years?

I’m a PJ supporter. He’s had a miserable year for all the reasons identified in many different threads. Saturday is a must-win for all the reasons identified in many different threads. We desperately need a Nebraska-type performance and that starts with him & his coaching.

It’s a witness protection program—guys simply disappear.

Of course, we want to see the former Gopher play! The season is finished. Give him a chance. If he produces half-way decent results it’s a great Minnesota story.

I’m not yearning for the long-ago days of Ben Johnson but his first team started 11-1 with road wins at Pitt; Mississippi State & Michigan.

Rossi unleased/better deployed his talent: Martin; Cashman; the Huff brothers; Durr among others who quickly thrived in his simplified schemes. (I believe Winfield was injured by the the time the change was made at DC.). Currently, the defense is a mess partially due to a talent deficit.

Is Niko thinking I left the beauty of the Rockies to lose to USF in Sioux Falls? Much ugly basketball in the future before we get better.

Great showing by Minnesota fans—seemed about a 50/50 breakdown. I imagine, sadly, any Chicagoland casual Gopher fans were not converted to the cause today. Today’s defensive performance was 1983-esque.

We’re dining in grand style in the Wisconsin Dells on our way to the game. Saw a couple SUVs on I-94 with Minnesota flags presumably destined for Wrigley Field.

How about?—9/9/78: Illinois 0-Northwestern 0.

The defensive weaknesses are exacerbated by the offensive woes—too much time on the field—says Captain Obvious.

I lived for a year in the Midlands. On BritRail, Wolverhampton was a stop on the way to Coventry—great memories!

Accountibility should mean the AD convening (this) Monday morning, meetings with Fleck/OC/DC & entire the entire hockey staff to discuss expectations for the rest of the season. Per football—a passionate & prepared effort against Northwestern is a non-negotiable—in light of the road game...
