Exactly what I'm trying to say, they have no pride, they only play for themselves.
I'd love to be proven wrong.
The field "safety" is a cover for players who are done with the season and want to get paid and get on a plane to go back to Florida where they live.
Why is it that two weeks ago our beloved Gophers, with nothing to play for but pride and a bronze pig, took to a cold and supposedly frozen field, with numerous depth issues and coaching upheaval, and played their hearts out to beat a classic rival in front of some very loyal and cold fans who were not served alcohol in the stadium(not sober though
)
But supposedly professional football players can't do this for their fans and their franchise that represents their fans' state?
Plain and simple, this is hammering home why I went from a hardcore vikings fan to a hardcore gopher fan.
