    He's better than what they have had.

    Alex, Holden, Mazzocco, the Denver guy, and the ESPN regional guy are the best ones that do pxp for college.

    As much of a Gopher homer he is he at least knows the game better than most.

    Yeah, but he's still a Super-Gofer...

    Watching the Gopher/Michigan Tech highlights, is Mazzocoo doing Gopher tv games again?

    Yup...and he had to update his hair hat to the grey model.  Same old Gofer homer though; was having a sh*t fit at the end of the game when Minny challenged for a phantom major penalty and they didn't get it.

    Thanks for sharing! It was a good listen! I appreciated their observations about Penn State historically having a very weak non-conference schedule and this year is no exception. They have road trips to ASU and RIT so that ASU trip is tough but then six home games against LIU, Clarkson, and Stonehill. Looks like McKenna can boost his Hobey resume playing some weaker opponents. 

    Hope they enjoy their cupcakes...

    Kaprizov signed for 17 per for 8 years with the Wild 

    That's a crazy amount for a guy that gets hurt as much as he does; hopefully for the Wild he can manage to stay healthy.  BTW, Connor McDavid says thanks!  I'm sure that will be the starting point for annual salary during his negotiations.

    I understand something had to be done and Rocco was the fall guy. I’m not sure if there is a good manager out there that is willing to take this job unless there are some guarantees of spending. 

    Have seen a few mentions of Torii Hunter or Justin Morneau. For nostalgia sake, that would be cool but I don’t want to tarnish their legacy. Think it would be wiser to go elsewhere. Skip Schumaker, Mark DeRosa, Brad Ausmus, Brandon Hyde are some names I go after. 

    Lou Brown available?

    Three games left in the season.  Likely swept in Philly as the Phillies have the outside hope of the top seed depending on how the Reds and Brewers fare.  Maybe they win the last one of the season.

    Offseason may be an interesting one as I see the team cutting further salary.  The pitching situation after the rotation will be interesting.  Other than Funderburk and Sands I don't know who your late inning guys are now.  If you told me that Funderburk or Sands coming back are their best relievers in 2026 I probably would've disagreed with you a few months ago, but that is now the case.  
     

    Effin' Pohlads just need to go.

    If you’re truly old school Sioux, you want leather helmets.   And since it’s probably required, I’m sure theres a way to hang some mamby pamby face guards on them.   Also leather.  

    Natural leather—not dyed some fake color.  It’s time to become the men we once were.  


     

     

    Call Reg Morelli; he might have some extra leather helmets laying around.

    This is why I'm so pissed that he played only 1 series in the preseason.  The guy needs NFL Snaps and they treated him like a 10 year veteran.  If a guy like him is not going to play more than 5 Minutes in the preseason than what is the point.  Other than the 5 minutes and a little bit in the Preseason last year he has not played in almost 2 Years.

    I agree with this 100%...kid needed reps to get up to NFL speed.

    They announced that JJ has an ankle injury supposedly.

    Gotta think it's a little more than that.  They could work on his ankle all week and announce a decision on Friday if he hasn't responded well to treatment.  They're already announcing that Wentz is the starter for Sunday.
