I was a freshman in 1984. I remember walking into Williams arena and sat and watched a couple practices (not sure if I was supposed to be in there). I ended up working in the concession stands for both hockey and basketball games for 5 years. That team could have been really good. Then the...

I hope this thread doesn't come back to haunt us! This is bulletin board material for AK if he sees this :cool:.

I fit this. Basketball used to be my second favorite Gopher sport. It no longer is. Here's the ranking I've had for a few years: 1. Football 2. Hockey 3. Volleyball 4. Basketball

Agree. I wouldn't be opposed if the Stadium only sold beer with NIL attachment. If that means the only beer available is Duck Duck, so be it. Yeah, some folks won't be happy, but I'm guessing 90% of beer drinkers at a Gopher sports event will be just fine drinking Duck Duck. This would also help...

I've resorted to this with Gopher football: I record the game and watch up to the first half. I then stop watching and watch something else or do something else. Once we are about 4.5 hours after kickoff I look up the Big Ten standings. If we see that we lost, I don't bother watching the second...

My first thought was why didn’t the Mountain West agree to merge with Washington St and Oregon St. However, rethinking this, those two schools had higher aspirations and only wanted the best schools from that conference and try to pick off a few schools from other conferences. A bit of high risk...

Yes, I was on my patio watching them as long as I could until the downpour hit.

I'm just west of Carver and the front is just blowing through right now. Really strong winds and rain. Temps are certainly cooler now.

RB Marcus Major steps in for an injured Taylor and performs better than expected. (FYI, I have no inside information regarding Taylor's injury status).

Agree, I'm old school, I like our team colors: maroon and gold

I’d do both. I’d have lunch at Malcolm Yard and then hang outside at Surly, walk over to the tailgate lots around 4:00. https://surlybrewing.com/beer-hall/ As someone else mentioned, if you’re in town Wednesday or Friday, the nearby state fair would be quite a thing to visit. It has the largest...

I like to set up a golf outing at Willingers in Northfield, and then drive down to Diamond Jo's while I'm at least down south of the metro.

If the line stays at 4.5-5.5 wins, I’ll be making a trip across the Iowa border to Diamond Jo’s. Last year I thought the line was pretty accurate and didn’t make the trip. This year the line is crazy low in my opinion.

I was thinking that DTA got a nice fat donation and that person indicated he/she wanted it to all go to the football program.

Well, this would be an interesting trade. What would you think if we traded a 4th or 5th round pick for Zach Wilson? First instinct is I’m against it. But if the coach is convinced he’s worth the gamble, it’s something to ponder...

On a side note, I heard the leading candidates for two expansion teams are Las Vegas and Seattle. I guess that would probably send us and Memphis into the Eastern conference. I think I’d be okay with it. Milwaukee, Chicago and Detroit could develop into better regional rivals. Sorry if this has...

I wish there was a better quality video out there. Gophers take the court a couple minutes in. Listen to the crowd noise, shows how many folks showed up 30 minutes before tip off.

Yep, I miss the North Stars. I’ve had trouble really embracing the Wild. What would you have thought about naming the team the Minnesota North, having a big N on the jersey and using the old green and gold colors? I could have accepted them immediately.
