Adrian Peterson wants trade to Cowboys
fightingsioux4life replied to fightingsioux4life's topic in Non-collegiate sports
I don't know about that, he rushed for over 2,000 yards the season after blowing out his knee. I think people are writing him off way too soon; he still has some gas left in the tank. -

This is where the ego of Jerry Jones comes into play. When Jerry Jones wants something, he will overpay to get it. The Vikings could use that to their advantage. -

So the Vikings should just give him away for a 7th round pick and a cup of coffee later? Sorry, but that's not acceptable. The Vikings own his rights and if they can't get something for him, then they should stick to their guns and not trade him to anybody. He is still better than most of the running backs out there. -
I called this months ago and now it's out in the open. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2372717-insider-buzz-adrian-peterson-wants-to-join-cowboys-vikings-wont-trade-him Jerry Jones, if you want the services of the best running back in the game today, you will have to cough up some serious draft picks and current players. This will be sweet revenge for the Hershel Walker Trade 26 years ago. I hope you enjoyed those Super Bowls in the 1990's Dallas, because Karma is here and she wants her money NOW!!! This is going to get very interesting!

SIOUX @ Western Michigan - SATURDAY Gameday
fightingsioux4life replied to AZSIOUX's topic in Men's Hockey
Um, I was talking about the last two Saturday nights. I never said a thing about Friday night. Blowing a two goal lead in the third period in the regular season costs you points in the NCHC race. In the playoffs, it can end your season. That is the point I was trying to make. -

I have had similar problems posting videos and images; it's a little harder than it used to be. -

Excuse me, but pointing out that we frittered away a 2 goal lead for the second consecutive Saturday is not "jumping off" the bandwagon. It's stating a fact. And it has become a disturbing trend for this team when they have a one or two goal lead in the third period. Being objective does not make someone a bandwagon jumper. -

Got it done in OT. Big road sweep. We still have four regular season games remaining, nothing locked up yet. -

This is where Hakstol's "Baseline" B.S. causes problems. If you get a lead by being aggressive and playing to win, why in the world would you want to back off and start playing not to lose? The Prevent Defense prevents you from winning in the NFL and it does the same in this sport. Just play all out for 60 minutes and don't worry about making mistakes. I think that works better than this Prevent crap. -
More "Can't, Can't, Can't" type of thinking. As Micky said in Rocky II "Their ain't no can't!". We need to stop thinking "Can't" and start thinking "Can", "Should" and "Must".

I am with you and darell1976 on this. But some people on this forum will tell you that this just isn't possible because there isn't a money tree planted outside Faison's office.

There ARE positive things to talk about (MH having a great season so far, FB being rebuilt by Bubba and Co.). But ignoring the negative things won't make them go away or help to fix them. Only by shining a light on them will positive changes be made.

Look up the old axiom about people in glass houses before you make comments like this.

Yep, that was a big fiasco in every sense of the word.

First of all, nobody is saying we should replace coaches in any sport every 2 or 3 years. That is a straw man argument. Second of all, don't act like Jones just got here and deserves all the rope he wants. He's had 9 years to put his stamp on the program and right now it doesn't look all that good. And the players on the team are there because Jones wanted them there. Recruiting falls on the coaches (especially Jones) and if we are recruiting soft players who can't/won't rebound and fight for rebounds and who don't play well together as a team (street ball), nothing is going to change. Whomever is to blame, this team is soft and mediocre and I don't expect that to change next year or the year after that.

Really? Isn't this the designated thread for UND-NDSU bickering? Or is that inappropriate here too? Kiss NDSU's a$$ if you want, but I will not do that. Not today and not ever.

This was the same basic problem with Mussman. Too much focus on athleticism and not enough on the intangibles when it comes to both recruiting and in-game management.

Nice summary on how I feel about things. And I am glad I am not the only one that feels this way.

ESPN 30 for 30 - Soviet Hockey Discussion
fightingsioux4life replied to MafiaMan's topic in Non-collegiate sports
ESPN will replay this over and over again. So if you didn't catch it the first time (like me), you'll get many more chances to watch it. -
That depends on which state you are talking about. Anyway, my point still stands.
-
If we don't have the money to get and keep the best assistant coaches in FB and other sports, then we have bigger problems than Jones.

I think Jimmy Kleinsasser played basketball his first year.

This will be a tough case to solve.

When you add up the Federal and State taxes (including every state New England played in), that isn't as much as it looks.
