Is anyone else disgusted with the constant chatter of the color men during BIG basketball telecasts? Guys like Bardo and Morris feel a need to fill every moment when the play-by-play guy isn't talking w/ nothing but blather. If they say something highly technical, those who would understand it...

They featured the Gophers on Paul Allen's show this a.m. Mike Grimm started if off by saying Steve Ekpe and then saying one of the starting safeties is someone named Calhoun. Then Allen showed his ignorance by announcing that one of the star safeties is someone named Thompson. Granted he did...

Halsey Hall This article was written by Stew Thornley. One of the most beloved sports and media personalities Minnesota has ever known, Halsey Hall did a great deal of play-by-play announcing. In 1934 he hooked on with a pair of championship teams. One was Bernie Bierman's Minnesota Gopher...

I think he is going to be a real force for us. http://www.mndaily.com/sports/football/2014/03/11/campbell-could-emerge-playmaker

Jerry Kill has mentioned several times that the botched fake punt failed because "we didn't sustain a block." Aaron Hill, the guy who picked up the lateral at the end of the game, is the guy who failed on the block of Indiana's safety Greg Heban. In fact Hill nonchalantly hardly touched Heban...

On his show yesterday, he and Mackey speculated what would happen if the Gophers beat Iowa and the Vikes lose in London. They both hinted the Gophers would start to be more popular with the fans (which is why I cheer against the Vikings). Reusse said positive things about the team and Leidner...

He admitted on his radio show that he was aiming to attend Kill's press conference but he was late. He couldn't get into TCF and was waddling around trying to find an unlocked door. Then he realized it was at Bierman. He figured, what the heck, I'll just skip it. Too much work to go there. Then...

The Esko girl's bb team's center is 6-9 and headed to UCLA. Pam talked to her but decided she wasn't a fit. Really????
