Last night's game was almost boring. The wolves did what they were supposed to do against a weak opponent at home. The team is peaking at about the right time. The game at Denver will be an interesting test of their resurgence because it will be against a high quality opponent on the road.

True. However, the Warriors play at home for 11 of their remaining 17 games at home. Most of their tougher opponents are at Chase.

Very sloppy win. Much better than a well played loss. I've been peeking ahead at the schedule and the warriors' schedule over the next couple of weeks is just about as soft as the wolves' schedule. I'm not assuming the wolves are going to move into the top six. Those four or five...

The column was a PR plant by Coyle. It’s been his job to get the money all along and he fell way behind. He needs to leave with Johnson.

People live here and enjoy it for many reasons outside of gopher hoops. Take a look at the records four years ago before you say it was preposterous to put us below NU, Rutgers and PSU. Nobody is cheering Davis' comments. Just acknowledging reality. No self hate involved. The reason Coyle...

I did watch it. Great series! I don't think it's the Atlanta in him. He is a smart guy who does not speak the language of white America. However, neither does most of the league. On the floor that's how everybody talks. It's about talking shit directly at the refs and showing them up...

The first part of Davis' comment is not true. Ben has not done a "fantastic job" and hasn't done enough to keep his job. The second part of the statement is true. It's one of the worst P5 jobs and probably the worst job in the B1G. For all the DEI folks, let it go. Nobody you wanted was...

He probably loses calls too, though I don't follow his game closely enough to know.

MLB umps are the worst. Incredibly thin skinned.

This fairly new habit of holding his arms out wide like he's going to be crucified when he doesn't get a call also doesn't help. I think the only thing that is going to impact his behavior is his teammates telling him to knock it off.

I thought Shabazz had the tools to be a better player. Too bad it didn't work out.

As everybody knows, I'm far less impressed with the job Tim Connelly has done than most people on this board. His reputation exceeds his performance, IMO. However.... Drafting Jaylen Clark in the second round is a 10 out of 10. Clark is as boring as Ant is exciting. But all he does is...

He's not going to get calls when he acts the way he does.

Tonight is just the kind of game they often lose (even with Ant). It's a talented and immature team, like its leader.

I go up north every summer with a group of friends. One year we stopped at a casino on the way up and I "accidentally" won $60 at the blackjack table. It was an accident because I didn't know what the hell I was doing. It was hard to walk away from the table because greed and delusions of...

Why are you betting on games and what kinds of bets are you making? I'm not being judgmental, I'm genuinely curious. I don't bet, not for moral or budgetary reasons, but because it doesn't interest me. For me, the game is the hook. What's the hook of betting?

I did a quick search of the columns that Scoggins and Reusse have done on Johnson through the years and they are largely quite positive, certainly more positive than his record deserves. So what's the deal? A few guesses: 1. The media in this market tends to go pretty easy on sports figures...

For the sake of 8-10 posters who can’t forgive Ben for being a black coach and who have claimed without providing evidence that Gabel forced the hire and who have claimed without providing evidence that junior Muss and junior Dutcher were fighting for the job, let’s all pray that Coyle doesn’t...

I think "good dude" from the medias perspective is defined as is the person approachable, does the coach provide access, does the coach help you meet deadline, does the coach publicly embarrass you, is the coach a straight shooter etc. I suspect Pitino and Tubby were also good dudes who got...

There is no way Coyle retains him at this point. Your post addresses something that I think is in play here. It's not racial and it's not DEI (oops, bad word!). Ben is basically a good dude, so the media has given him the benefit of the doubt. He hasn't produced, so he's gone, but I think...
