    2018 Sagarin Preseason Predictions

    Back for another year, it's this thing! And the preseason predictions are riding a bit of a hot streak. In 2017, the initial predictions had the Gophers going 5-7 (of course, the Gophers ended up going 5-7). In 2016, the initial predictions had them going 7-5 or 8-4 (Minnesota went 8-4). My...

    All Things TV Series Recommendations/Reviews

    Been catching up on Handmaid's Tale on Hulu (almost through season 1 myself, I think they just finished posting season 2's episodes). I enjoy the acting - especially Elisabeth Moss as the protagonist - but it is tough to watch (subject-matter wise) sometimes. Really pulls you into the story...

    Loons are shredding LAFC right now; 5-1 in the 70' Quintero is incredible.

    Darwin Quintero had an absolutely incredible hat trick tonight against Toronto. Really showed off his talent. https://streamable.com/gaabr <div style="width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.250%;"><iframe src="https://streamable.com/s/gaabr/gxuemw" frameborder="0"...

    Clemson QB Hunter Johnson transfers to Northwestern

    Former 5-star composite QB will have three years of eligibility after sitting the 2018 season. A division foe may have improved their future by quite a bit today. https://247sports.com/Article/Former-Clemson-quarterback-Hunter-Johnson-transferring-to-Northwestern-Wildcats-118963085

    Yeah, I'm honestly not upset given who we trotted out there (Harrison Heath, what??) and who we were playing. Saturday will be excellent and I expect three points. Plus, dollar hot dogs.

    Ramirez and Miller are questionable tonight, Danladi, Mears and Burch are out. Ibson is not traveling (rest). Gonna be a reallllly interesting (read: inexperienced) lineup but I can't say I blame them. I think they can get 3 points at home on Saturday against a floundering SJ team and they'd...

    What a fun game today. Down a man for basically the whole second half, win 1-0. Had a great time at TCF. Nevermind what that means for Wednesday....

    :( I like Sam. I get that we are in desperate need of a solid defender, and it sounds like Miller might be that, AND it means we get to slot Gomez into the LW position (which is probably an upgrade over Sam), but I'll still miss him. Brought a lot of energy to the field.

    Agreed on all counts. Unrelated note: Allianz is quite possibly going to be the best atmosphere in the league when it opens next year. The support and experience is absolutely amazing - best in the Twin Cities as far as I'm concerned. <div style="width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative...

    Alexi Gomez confirmed by the club: https://www.mnufc.com/post/2018/04/11/alexi-gomez-joins-mnufc That means probably Gomez and Nicholson on the left with Jerry and Finlay on the right, with Mears and Burch coming off the bench. That sounds a lot more palatable than what we've been doing...

    Finally bought in and got season tickets this week. And apparently not a moment too soon - the club sent a note yesterday that they are extremely close to 14,000 tickets sold. They are planning on 14,000 season tickets in Allianz next season, so once they pass that mark it's likely you'll be on...

    And Zlatan with the brace to put LAG up 4-3. If people weren't into MLS before this game they might be now. What a frickin' classic.

    Sounds like Gomez might happen now, at least according to some mildly credible Twitter and Peruvian news sources. That'd be a nice pick up for the club if it does indeed happen.
