I have no issue with DNA being used to track down criminals. These databases however sell their data to insurance companies. People are starting to be refused health and life insurance coverage based on dna held by distant relatives. PS DNA science is strong but telling ethnicities from DNA is...

He is 78 and has a 5% chance to survive to 83. I am 49 and would 100% take that opportunity.

I was quite impressed with Painter in the post game interview. Very poised, very articulate and quite fair in his assessment. Asked about the out of bounds? Didn't see it personally, wasn't sure who it hit. Didn't seem upset by decision (unlike the BTN announcer who saw several magical touches...

Neat story from the Grand Forks Herald on the Jets' Minnesota scout. He may pick some Gopherholers' garbage. https://grandforksherald.com/sports/hockey/4550122-meet-dan-shrader-full-time-sanitation-worker-who-winnipeg-jets-call-upon-draft#.XCpMGpk1q_F.twitter

I remember a lot of losses by better Gopher teams. Yet I was sure Gophers were winners by 2nd quarter ( yes, I have made that mistake before). Is this the start of Wisconsin's fall to mediocrity? Let's hope so.

Quick update. The Blue Bombers won in Saskatchewan (the Iowa of Canada) 23-18. Wolitarsky was the top receiver with 5 catches for 68 yards and a td. Streveler played quite a bit and played well. 7 rushes for 41 yards but no passes. He clobbers people when he runs. On to Calgary for a chance to...

This is a nice story about customers supporting a small business in a time of need. https://globalnews.ca/news/4634258/customers-buy-out-doughnut-shop-day-owner-ailing-wife/?utm_medium=Twitter&utm_source=%40globalnews

Hopefully this turns out better but Fleck is way, way, way behind Brew in year 2.

A sad but interesting column on Marc Trestman who has had a rough year on and off the field. Seems like a good guy...

Korean movie "The Wailing" (about a haunted town) is quite good. Another Korean movie, Train to Busan (about a zombie apocalypse) is really good as well. Both are currently on Netflix. Korean film makers tend to handle horror really well.

Travis wrote a pretty good book on the last year of the Fulmer Tennessee program. Although he got fired, Fulmer comes across as a pretty good guy.

Thought I would do a thread on Gophers who are in CFL training camps. Think my info is accurate/ complete: -Drew Wolitarsky- Winnipeg: Is considered Canadian due to Canadian mother. This is a huge advantage for Drew. Currently #1 on Winnipeg's depth chart. Has a far better football pedigree...

Agreed. Moreover adding the CFL was ridiculous. I am a Blue Bomber fan but 10 minutes after a game the result, win or lose, is forgotten.

Well if this makes you feel better Minnesota isn't even top 5 in misery. http://www.the10and3.com/the-most-miserable-sports-city-2018-edition/

I have Gonzaga beating Nevada and then beating Kentucky. Losing to Purdue in the finals. Everyone was laughing at me on Thursday but no one's laughing now. That said, I still can't name a player on Gonzaga or Kentucky so this is all luck.

This is according to the ESPN box score. Is this correct?

Pretty damning stuff that the University seems to have ignored years of abuse of female athletes by one if its doctors. http://www.detroitnews.com/story/tech/2018/01/18/msu-president-told-nassar-complaint-2014/1042071001/ This seems to be somewhat flying under the radar as all the abused were...

Why obsession? Because he is on tv.

Why oh why would he make this decision? Have some balls and either let him play (if you think there is chance of a successful appeal) or keep him off the court (if you think he is likely guilty). Mark Coyle just pulled a "Joel Maturi".

This seems entirely reasonable and workable to me. By ditching the conference championships, you don't even add any more games. https://sports.yahoo.com/heres-make-college-football-playoff-even-better-032144320.html Thoughts?
