"Listen, here's the thing. If you can't spot the sucker in your first half hour at the table, then you ARE the sucker." - Mike McDermott

Not for nothing, but diesel mechanics make a crazy amount of money. Not a bad profession to go into.

Apparently not, because your friend down at the deli is claiming that this superman of an athlete couldn't even impress NDSU enough to offer him a scholarship.

I would anticipate that the week after the Spring Game we will see some players entering the transfer portal. Some possibilities: 1. The scholarship QB who sits fourth on the depth chart, knowing that playing time is unlikely and that Athan is coming this fall. 2. A second or third year WR who...

I feel like I just got a text from a 14-year old girl walking the hallway on her way to social studies.

In all seriousness, it's disingenuous to start a game of "gotcha" whenever something bad happens in the Cities. You lose perspective that way. For example, I just took a look at the Ames police report. Yesterday, there was an arrest for robbery in the first degree and attempted murder. Ames has...

Good god. You need to either drink less or drink more.

It's a fine campus. I'll be there for a few hours on Saturday listening to my son's choir perform. I've been all over the campus and still haven't seen the part that's fantastic like you describe, but to be fair I also haven't found that crime infested reach of Minneapolis either.

I disagree, actually. He played point when Carr wasn't in, and played it well. Unfortunately for him, Carr led the entire world in minutes played. I remember hearing that one of the reasons he left was so he could have a chance to handle the ball more, which wasn't going to happen this past year...

It's a little odd to weigh his freshman and sophomore years just as highly as his junior and senior years. His one year in the Big Ten he shot 35.6% from three. He improved that significantly last year in a lesser conference. I think it's entirely reasonable to expect that he has continued to...

Your standards are quite high if you consider Willis to be just an o.k. shooter. His 3-point percentage has gone up every year he's played: 2016-17: .313 2017-18: .349 (sit out transfer) 2019-20: .356 2020-21: .400

Minnesota is going to be one of the oldest and most experienced teams in the nation next year. Even if these players aren't superstars, age and experience can make up for a lot.

I'm not disappointed at all. This is what I think he brings: 1. He steps right in as the starting point guard. 2. He's a quality ball handler, which is what we've been looking for. 3. He's another one-year guy who leaves a scholarship open for 2022. 4. It's a really good sign that he liked...

This is well before your 20-year cutoff, but Randy Breuer's 1-A Lake City teams of 1978 and 1979 would have beaten any team in the state.

I looked up the Bible verse. Joshua 1:9 “Be strong dirty and courageous a punk. Do not be afraid sportsmanlike; do not be discouraged a hypocritical poser, for the Lord your God lowbrow Badger fan base will be with you wherever you go (vacuuming out cars and making exact change).”

The U just announced that the spring game on May 1 will be open to 10,000 fans. My unread and unresponded to email did the trick. I'm a genius!

I'm guessing very low, but maybe there are more 1964 movie musical buffs on here than we think.

If he takes a spoonful of sugar it will help the medicine go down.

If Faulker and McNeily come, I start to get a few stirrings of excitement. If we get pre-injury and pre-beaten-down-by-Pitino Gach on the floor, as well as an experienced center to at least defend the rim and rebound, that looks like a pretty experienced roster filled with guys who have already...

I think that high school center is a 2022 guy. So they won't overlap unless Robbins stays two years.
