    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.

    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...

    Max Brosmer vowing to be more efficient after disappointing debut

    Honestly, I really hope we call plays to his strengths instead of trying to force him to fit the program. Full disclosure, I have no idea what those strengths are, having barely seen the guy, but I trust the coaching staff does.

    Happy Five, Upset Five Fanbases: Week 1 (Upset: Minnesota; "This game showed us zero imagination and risk from the Gophers")

    That's where I'm at. I've defended him, and continue to defend him if someone comes out with a "fire him" vibe. But it's getting really hard to believe he has another gear waiting to be unlocked. I'm now 70/30 in the camp that thinks 2019 was the ceiling with him. It was a helluva ceiling, but I...

    My email to GopherSports

    Part of Coyle's job must be reshaping how the University and the Regents have approached athletics funding. Especially in light of all the changes in the last year, including power 5 schools being allowed to pay students directly. When you consider the massive TV rights deals and flood of new...

    Time.for PJ Fleck to Go, Engine Started

    Too soon for talks of a regime change. But regardless of end of year record, if I don't see Fleck progressing in his abilities, I'm concerned. I will never accept this idea that we can't hire/find a better coach if we need to. That's a sucker-ass mindset that is far too ingrained into MN...

    Scoggins: Not a lot to get excited about over ‘new’ Gophers offense

    After only one game, there is nothing to argue about on this. It's a spot on analysis of a one-game season.

    Ok so then to summarize, we both agree in freedom of speech? Sick!

    Explain the Gophers loss to UNC in 1 sentence

    Gophers continue to lose coin-clip games as team struggles to use ChatGPT to call plays.

    No Debbie Downers thread

    Totally legit. But anyone that enjoys sports knows how this works by now. It's like complaining about death and taxes. Fans wallow after losses, some more than others.
