Go Gophers!!

Mike Leach? Really? I know that is probably hyperbole but that would be a PR nightmare and if you thought Minnesota fans disliked Brewster's attitude, wait 'til they got ahold of Leach ... ouch ...

Great headline Doogie. Yikes

Well said, BigMan'sGame.

I've stopped following links that have anything to do with the Strib or Doogie. It's a waste of time anyway, since the nature of whatever that hack writes about the Gophers has become totally predictable and nearly always inaccurate.

 

[Doogie]

I go overboard on the headlines so they catch your attention. Trying to give the Gophers some coverage during a period of lots of Twins, Vikings draft, and Wild and Wolves season-wrap stuff.

Thanks??

He learned from the best .

I highly doubt any Mike Leach to Minnesota rumors ever start. The name to keep an eye on is Marc Trestman. Trestman has been very successful in the CFL and this offseason he has worked with both Tim Tebow and Jimmy Clausen in their preparations for the NFL draft. I am not advocating Trestman, just pointing out that his name actually has some buzz right now and not just from Sid Hartman.

Marc Trestman would be epic fail

Just like you

 

[bankonit]

Just like you

ouch, that is the best you can come up with? sad

 

[oak_street1981]

I can come up with a lot better, but you are not

worth it, or a second wipe.

I go overboard on the headlines so they catch your attention.

Yeah, I get how a headline is supposed to work. I got that it was a play on words, and you interchanged "Blah" & "Mah" in the headline. Doesn't mean it's awful and won't make you cringe.

"Flames BURN Wild"
"St. Louis RAMS the Vikings"

Pretty bad....nothing will however be as bad as Joe Schmidt in 2000 when he said during his sportscast "If the Vikings don't get in sync, they're playoff chances will go bye, bye bye."

Doogie respects Coach Brewster though, so it's all good.

You're right nothing will the that bad. That pretty much defines cringe-worthy.

 

[bankonit]

it should have been "if the Vikings don't get n'sync their only shot at the playoffs will be through the "back door"

 

[JoeDirt]

it should have been "if the Vikings don't get n'sync their only shot at the playoffs will be through the "back door"

HA!

Now that's funny. See how he used "back door," doogie. Another play on words, neat!
