Lets face it, with our "fan" base we won't draw well anywhere under almost any conditions. Of course, our "fans" will blame the teams play not the fact that when you have a stadium that is half full on Sr. Day that that will play a part in which team gets selected to go where. In the same way that they don't believe the thousands of screaming fans helped wisconsin in the 2nd half. In the same way they think showing up is good enough. They shouldn't have to cheer for the team (was actually told to shut up during the Northwestern game by a "Fan" who never clapped or cheered during the entire Northwestern game and of course -- left early to beat the traffic......
But hey, Tony Dungy will be our coach next year, right? so no worries. He will magically pull 42 wins out of his ass next season. It has taken me a long time to figure this out. I used to not understand how a no talent, worthless hack like Reusse could be a writer at the STrib, but it's finally dawned on me that most Minnesotans have a good idea of what they want to see on the field and no idea, absolutely no idea what it takes to get there. Most Minnesotans appears either agree with or are as stupid as Reusse. We get what we deserve on that front, and we deserve better.
Our team deserves better fans.
