    All Things 2025 Minnesota Vikings In-Season Thread

    Supposedly JJ and JJ had worked extensively together all offseason. I think they’ll be ok chem wise because Jefferson can accomodate so damn much and gets so damn open it doesn’t matter (see Mullens and Dobbs looking semi competent throwing him the ball). They’ll run much more PA as well which...

    All Things 2025 Minnesota Vikings In-Season Thread

    better pro in what sense? The Eberflus Bears tried to break Williams. Now he gets Ben Johnson who made Goff look like an MVP at times (after he was almost bounced out the league). Think you're going to see a much much better season from Williams this year as its an offense that complements what...

    Kevin Garnett #16 on Bleacher Report Top 100 List

    then your issue is with Finch, not Ant. He's doing what's asked and even when he was getting fried by the media for making the right play passing, he still takes it in stride of trying to execute the gameplan. On Ant shooting a better percentage, have said it a million times, but Finch needs to...

    Kevin Garnett #16 on Bleacher Report Top 100 List

    this is such a confusing take. Finch is on record saying he wants Ant to take more 3s because of what the NBA has become (in terms basically every tracking metric in that you should only take 3s or dunks). He got better shooting 3s because he worked his ass off at it. He was a mediocre to bad 3...

    All Things 2025 Minnesota Twins In-Season Thread

    If it counted against the cap, that’s fine Baseball should implement a salary cap (a real one). They never will now as the players union would never go for it. There are multiple teams deferring hundreds of millions in salary. To @GophersInIowa point on the Twins can’t, they can. But a player...

    All Things 2025 Minnesota Twins In-Season Thread

    Is everyone allowed to do it? If the twins were doing it, no one here would bat an eye. Multiple teams do it, and if it’s so advantageous, more can. If it hurts all the small market teams, they could try outlaw it.

    $200: the final straw for this Gopher alum & lifelong fan

    oh i don't disagree you that it is highly debatable that each student is "getting $200 worth of goods" from the new fee, the same that its debatable that you're getting ~16k "worth" of education each year as a resident and is a massive part of the disconnect in rising costs of education versus...

    Students paying students: How the U is trying to stay competitive in athletics

    yep they are tens to hundreds (depending on who you comp with) of millions behind other schools at least in terms of what's reported. and with fb and bb being vastly more popular, it's where the money will continue to get funneled to try sniff remaining competitive

    $200: the final straw for this Gopher alum & lifelong fan

    On a technicality, they are making it. No one is forcing anyone to go to the U. They’re then spending that money on athletes but the service the U is offering, people are willing to pay. We’ll see if it affects enrollment or not, but I doubt it in any real capacity that won’t be within the...

    Blake Wheeler retires

    I’d expect Cooley gets there if he’s stays healthy. Sure seems like he’ll be a ppg player for awhile going forward. Dont think Knies has that in his game and Cooley is a year younger as well

    If the Wild get him for anything less than 14.5, I will be surprised and it will be a steal given where contracts are going to go in the next 2-3 years

    Gopher Hockey Recruiting

    don't really know why we have to put a shot in at bob as part of the post, given he's recruiting him, but good numbers playing above his age level in Sweden. Long ways out but encouraging he's already on campus. Wonder if he and Pahlsson know each other. must be some sort of story for him to get...

    $200: the final straw for this Gopher alum & lifelong fan

    not at all saying it's ok, justified, etc., or saying what the U is doing is good. Went to the U and paid their ridiculous number of fees and tuition that is already pretty high comparatively so I absolutely agree with you. more was saying if they're going to use it for that, they need to say so...

    $200: the final straw for this Gopher alum & lifelong fan

    i think they legally have to say its being used for this/what their money is allocated for. but yeah if you look at the U's fees, they have a whole bunch of shit buried in there in your fees that you may or may not use as a student

    Gopher Hockey Season Thread 25-26

    Not an improvement for atmosphere I agree (the BT fan bases aren’t probably going to travel super well for this unless it’s on a back to back set of nights). Much better regardless from a prep for postseason standing and how you manage your schedule through the year Agree on how you figure out...

    $200: the final straw for this Gopher alum & lifelong fan

    you do realize that the U is not the only one doing this? That isn't meant as a dig, just that this has been going on for awhile at places and has gone up quite a bit at many more. Unsure if this is a "separate" fee, or just that the U needs to disclose what they're doing with the fees they...
