Catch Your MN Blizzard MASL2 Team Live in action on YouTube as they head to...

    All Things 2026 World Cup

    Might as well start the thread with this one - Curaçao has qualified. This is basically like the city of Rochester getting a team into the cup - both are around a population of 185,000.

    Group of 5 Teams in Contention for the 2024-25 FBS Playoffs

    Who's going to make it to the playoffs? We have four teams from the AAC that will eventually crown a champion through their playoff, and I'm thinking one team from the MW (maybe Bosie State, but with two losses I think they're on out outside looking in). I'm picking Tulane to win the AAC and get...

    Red Barron Ticket Deal is Back Again

    For those of you who don't have season tickets, here's a way to pick up nearly free tickets: buy three Red Barron pizzas and you get two tickets to a game (Buffalo, NW State or Purdue). https://gophersports.com/sports/2025/8/5/red-baron

    Terry Draper, drummer for Klatuu, has passed away.

    Seems like there are a few "had died" threads, so I thought I'd start one of a band you've probably never heard of, but do give 'em a listen. They were described to me as a cross of The Beatles, ELO, Queen, and Yes, and I suppose that's pretty true. The one song you may have heard of theirs is...

    DeVries is Heading to Indiana

    This probably means McCollum to Iowa

    The University of Notorius Cheaters (UNC) Makes the Dance

    There's no way they deserved to make it. Follow the money... And also, Tulane got robbed. The refs gave the AAC game to Memphis with multiple really bad calls in the final 30 seconds... This let one more bubble team make it to the dance.

    What's Your Favorite College Football Stadium?

    Looks like "The Bank" comes in at number four in terms of how much it cost to build (which surprises me a bit). I've only been to three stadiums on this list, and I sort of like the Bank the best out of those three. The site lines are certainly the best. My favorite overall is Texas (they...

    Nice to see Battle making it in the NBA

    Obviously wished he would have stayed, but it's good to see a former Gopher making it in the league.

    College Soccer is Looking at Becoming a Pro League

    Not sure where this fits in the threads, but since soccer is aka "football" I'll place it here. In a short summary, it looks like the B1G and ACC conferences are about to announce that their teams are going to in a sense leave the NCAA and join the US Soccer Federation to become a new semi-pro...

    American Single Malt Whiskey

    Starting today, American Single Malt Whiskey is now a thing. The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau has made it official. Under the new rule, a liquor can only be legally defined as an American single malt whiskey if it’s made from a fermented mash of 100% malted barley produced in the...

    B1G vs SEC

    After all that smack from ESPN about how dominant the SEC is in football, the B1G is now 4-1 vs the SEC with the only SEC win being Missouri barely squeaking by Iowa. The BIG also has two teams in the CFP semis, with the SEC only having one (with Texas having to go to overtime to advance)...

    Fubo vs YouTubeTV vs Others

    I've been using YouTubeTV for several years now, but am thinking of switching to Fubo to get better regional sports coverage. If you're using Fubo (or something else), do you recommend it to others?

    Thirty-Three Years Ago the Greatest Game in the History of Baseball was Played, and it Just Happened to be the Seventh Game of the World Series.

    This game had it all - including the best performance of a pitcher I've ever seen. Jack Morris going 10 innings for the win.
