  1. In case you missed it (somehow), Legion in 2 days
  2. Yeah, none of the commercials did anything for me. I was already hyped about GoTG 2 and Stranger Things 2, they were fun, but I'm already sold. And yeah, I don't understand Gaga's appeal. Or why I should be more than "meh" about that halftime show.
  3. He only counts as being wanted a lot if you also consider how often he was unwanted.
  4. A deep shot on 3rd and 1 up by 16? Absolutely stupid play call. Shanahan is lucky he already has a job lined up.
  5. Right, at the very least we should be looking back at this and asking why the university now feels like doing an almost 180 from what one department determined. If there is going to be such a stark difference between fair due process and Title IX, shouldn't we have some hard questions about what, how, and why the decision by Title IX was determined in the first place? I sure as hell do.
  6. All this Danny Santana talk just further goes to show how little "versatile" should matter if you just plain aren't very good at it. (Or much of anything for that matter) I wish we'd find someone actually good at the role he's supposedly filling.
  7. You're right, probably not the end of it. Where did you read that her story changed again? The real shame here is that the four players who had, at best, tangential involvement in the actual act were dragged into the paper as if they were also perpetrators.
  8. Some final fallout from the scandal: http://www.twincities.com/2017/02/03/gophers-winfield-jr-says-hes-been-cleared-in-school-sexual-assault-case/
  9. I wonder if LaVine being hurt might not help us figure out some things with this team. Wasn't there some success this year when we played him on the second unit and not with Wiggins?
  10. So if Park is claimed and we sign Napoli....what then?
  11. I love it, but yeah, Sports Bar at the top of this group please.
  12. ......Am I being Twins rick-rolled?
  13. Well, that's interesting.
  14. Single? He made a hard turn around third for an inside-the-park HR!
  15. I'd like us to keep both. Belisle isn't perfect...but you don't get perfect when you wait to sign relievers until early February.
  16. I would love to see more of this. I think there is a weird trust level with these scouting services that seems to ignore the sheer impossibility of these guys having the kind of sample size of observation to make definitive analysis possible. I love reading them and looking at them too. But I've learned (the hard way) to take them with a huge grain of salt. Especially as it regards defense.
  17. There is an earlier post in this thread, liked by the author of this article and 6 others, that states the team's talent is worthy of upper 70 wins and is "believed in" across the industry. The post clearly implies the new FO is right to also believe in this talent. Similar sentiments have been less directly stated, but of similar tone. So, not imagined at all. Again, please read the context of the discussion.
  18. Love the stuff on prospect lists, very cool.
  19. I would suggest you more thoroughly read what you quoted and responded too. Not to mention the context.
  20. I too hope the decision making process appears decisively different as the season progresses. So far we haven't had much tangible evidence to suggest it is.
  21. I think Mike's question is a valid one to consider. If you are patting the new FO on the back for their keen insight in how good the team was in spite of it's record, aren't you implying that the last FO had built a good team? I'm sure people will add some nuance to their distinctions, but I see where he's getting that flavor. It's been all over this thread. It's hard to swallow the idea of someone saying "Well of course things weren't working! Look at the situation they were fired in! But thank goodness we have these guys here to leave things largely the same because our situation is actually pretty good!" I sort of "huh?" at that too.
  22. The Berkley protests feel like only the beginning. I disagree strongly with the protesters both for their actions and for their intent (silencing speech), but threatening them with cutting off funding is even more ridiculous.
  23. Tweet to follow: "Jesus took a bad deal. Sad. Martyrdom is for losers, people should follow someone who doesn't make bad deals. Let's make religion great again. #TrumpisGod"
