    PJ Isn't Going Anywhere

    Yep - bare minimum another season.

    Roll call of everyone who is done with this program

    Not done - I had my moment last year. Not proud, but it was the lowest of the low to lose to Illinois the way we did. Imma make it thru this season and decide on whether I can justify the cost of season tickets if my friends no longer want to suffer alongside me. Beyond that I’m enjoying...

    I don't know where my fandom goes from here...

    Clearly I came back for more, and I do cringe at myself. But I didn’t delete! Lol. All that said, it’s a funny retrospective that although I came back, my emotions sorta stopped last year and now I expect losses and gloom. I’m super glad my 15 year old Pitbull is still alive and bringing me...

    After 25 years… I’m out

    I was on the fence this year. I’m glad I got them - but it’s getting embarrassing to host friends at these games. If PJ is around next year I will be hesitant.

    Describe the Gophers loss to Iowa in 1 sentence

    PJ is rowing alone as fan apathy sets in and Floyd heads to the land of degenerates.

    After 25 years… I’m out

    It’s late big dog - I assume you know I mean the men’s final four run in whatever year it was. But hey, NITs can be fun too.

    After 25 years… I’m out

    Honestly I’m not mad either. I was mad and sad last year. Now I just feel like a chump gopher fan who just cheers for this club because I’m a Saint Paul kid that saw a magic final four run in 98. Maybe our next coach will figure it out.

    After 25 years… I’m out

    The joy I feel is in hanging with friends. They’re always impressed with my seats and the first half is fun…. But we lose every big game. I really can’t remember the last big game we came through on. We beat Iowa last year but it felt flukey af.

    After 25 years… I’m out

    That’s a crappy feeling OP. I’ve been there. It’s a really hard program to cheer for. I love them dearly but we survive on fucking crumbs. Please tell me that seat is at least warm PJ.

    The headline Sunday morning will read?...

    PJ fleck laments not going for it on pivotal fourth down call that seals Iowa victory.

    Thank you so much!

    This Iowa game is a BFG

    Honestly, I'm trying to approach this game with zero expectations. Neutral emotion is the goal.... now here's the rub, the more friends offer me shots or beers the more my ability to remain a grey stone is challenged. It's the game within the game people. Since it feels better to be confident...

    Best bar to watch a Gopher away game?

    Me too - I love the neighborhood so much. Grew up on the East Side and never really came over this way as a kid. Student taught at Humboldt, but that was it. Fast forward twenty years and I'd call it the best kept secret of Saint Paul.

    Best bar to watch a Gopher away game?

    Sad - I take it that it must be closed now? I haven't been there since watching the Penn St upset fourish years ago.

    Best bar to watch a Gopher away game?

    Joe Senser's in Roseville will always be well packed for big time games. For me, I just want to be surrounded by Gopher fans if I go to a bar. So that has pretty much meant needing to go near campus. Sadly, the "Gopher Bar" in Saint Paul has historically let me down - more of a local alcoholic...

    Best bar to watch a Gopher away game?

    Is this "Frankie's corner bar" in st. paul park, or "The Corner Bar" in mnpls? Sorry to be dense, at first I thought "West side" meant west side of St. Paul and I got excited.

    What grade do you give Gophers coaches in win over Rhode Island?

    Obviously a cupcake opponent, but they worked on the passing game. I am very encouraged and hopeful that PJ will take the lesson. Surely I don't expect these stat lines agains some of the defenses coming up, but in the past I feel like we missed opportunities to work on the passing game when...

    P.J. Fleck on struggling offense: 'This isn't backyard football'

    Yep - that play call is where he really fuckin lost me.

    Why not be more skeptical of a newly hired head football coach here at Minnesota and more supportive of the existing coach?

    The team is just a bore. It's a boring product and fan interest is beginning to wane. You can hear it in the stands, on the podcasts, and you'll see it in attendance soon enough. If either of these cupcake games ahead is competitive, it will only bolster those cries. If Iowa beats us becuase we...
