I think this is one of the problems with a young team. Some of these guys have to learn that you win games by putting in a full 60 minutes of work and that being a team with a target on your back as defending NCAA and NCHC champions makes it just that much harder. There is still time to salvage this season, but we don't have time for a repeat of last night's nonsense. We need to string together some wins.

The mindless garbage this backwater/bush-league Legislature comes up with is beyond description. Don't they have better things to do while they are there? I suppose when you get elected solely because of the letter you have behind your name, you can afford to waste our time and money on nonsense like this.

Which is probably why it is time for Red to either 1) put himself out to pasture or 2) have someone in the athletic department with some balls to do it for him.

Well, since you made the request, here is my little fur baby: Nicest cat you'll ever meet and has gotten me through some tough times over the past three years or so. Now, back to mandatory convulsing over last night!

Unfortunately, I will not be there this year. I am skipping the Frozen Faceoff this year because, well......it just isn't all that much fun. The Hoggsbreath Brunch was the best part of last year's trip and I will miss it this year. I may be back in the future, however.

I wouldn't be surprised if they fold their program after this year. Not good news at all.

I wouldn't write their eulogy just yet, but it does look like a resurgent UND program and a Tim Brewster-less Gopher program are beginning to even things out around here.

Can you post a picture? I love animals.

I think it was a reference to the last three years and the 2nd, 2nd and 3rd place finishes. I think they do get over the hump this year.

Yeah, I am a frequent visitor to that web site.

This must be a sweep. We have some ground to make up in league play. I do not care how well Miami is playing right now.

KVLY has devolved into tabloid trash. They have chased out all the good journalists (Charley Johnson for example) and are only worth watching for the weather.

Buyer's remorse? I hate to say this but.....you get what you pay for.

All this stuff doesn't seem to be hurting WDAY or KVLY. Or maybe it does and they cover it up? And a monopoly is a monopoly; are you saying as long as it's a local and/or regional issue, monopolies are just fine?

I am still not ready to give them the NCAA title on a platter. How their freshmen handle the playoffs will determine how far they go.

Since a lot of players take a redshirt year, why don't they just get rid of the medical hardship altogether? Either use it as it was intended or don't have it.

I don't know what I would do if Faison hired this guy.

We are very fortunate that Bubba applied for the FB head coaching position and was hired. We could have ended up with someone as bad as Muss.....or maybe even worse.

Nice to put my name as the starter of this thread, when I started no such thread. I didn't know I was that important around here.

And your example was not what I was getting at.

JJ and Braden Hanson dropped down a division (FBS to FCS), so they were immediately eligible. But if you are going from FBS to FBS, then you have to sit out.

Only in the world of academia are people guilty until proven innocent. Didn't North Dakota pass a law giving students a right to legal counsel when litigating a dispute with a college and/or university? I think the issue is that it looked like due process wasn't being followed. I don't like how they went about it, but their beef was not entirely illegitimate. Name one generation that wasn't blamed for all the ills of society. The Baby Boomers were savaged by the WW2 Generation for every problem in the world, when in fact the Baby Boomers were responsible for civil rights reform, environmental reform and giving back to the world with the Peace Corps. And if protests and boycotts (which were the bedrock of the civil rights struggle) mean someone is acting "entitled", then that should be worn as a badge of honor. If you don't stand up for yourself, no one else will either.

Because when players transfer, they are forced to sit out a year. When an employee leaves one company for another, they don't have to sit out a year. You can pretend those two things are the same, but they are not.
