Seem to have wandered off topic.

Defense has been a bright spot. Drake is 0-13 on 3rd down today.

Good.

This is the ugliest 31-0 lead I have ever seen.

24-0

Big 1st down.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Unless we start contending for March Madness every year.

I was just giving my explanation as to why they would impose the mandates they are imposing. They have to cover their butts; no one else is going to do it for them.

But masks and vaccines will make it less likely that a lawsuit would be successful. They can show people they did all they could to prevent serious infection and/or death amongst the patrons, thus covering their keisters.

I think it's as much about liability protection as anything else.

You meant bite, didn't you?

Or Canada.

What? He doesn't want to be a Bison? That can't be right! (sarcasm)

The sentence was overturned, but not the conviction. This guy will never see the light of day again, death sentence or not.

In that case, the NCAA Tournament will become much less compelling and fewer people will follow it.

IALTO!

I smell a thread closing in the near future.

Diaper Dandies 2.0? We'll see how they do against older, stronger players.

Let them have the pressure of being preseason #1. We have the advantage of being in the best conference in the game.

Sour grapes? Not me. I won't make the argument that he wasn't that good for us anyway.

I don't care when the prospect camps are held. If he wasn't sure if he wanted to come back or not, he didn't have to make a public statement when he did. He could have waited until the prospect camps were done. At least the coaches would have known he wasn't 100% for-sure returning. And aren't these entry-level contracts capped at a certain number? Someone will have to enlighten me on that.

I am a little tired of the "you can't blame a kid for doing whatever he wants, whenever he wants" thinking. Leaving your team in a lurch like this is bush-league. Period. He said he was coming back, then pulled a 180 on the coaching staff. It is not quite as bad as leaving before Christmas, but it is a close second. Whether or not he makes it at the next level is always a big question mark unless your last name is Toews or Parise. I don't wish bad things on him and I don't care about the kneeling stuff. I just like it when people keep their word and don't like it when they pull stuff like this.

So if he had decided to bolt right before the Manitoba game, that would have been alright with you as well? Leaving your college team in a lurch right before the season is just bush-league.
