  1. The NBA model might be the way to go. Salary floor, soft salary cap with luxury tax on money spent over the soft cap. Soft cap determined by a percentage of league wide revenue. Implement a max/super max contract FAs can be offered… the current 12, 13 year contracts are absurd.
  2. Rebuilding teams could sign veteran FAs to 1 year deals, they could trade for bad contracts and get draft capital in return, and other options available in pro sports. But there should be an expectation to meet a floor of spending every year.
  3. Are we ever going to learn to stop giving Charley Walters attention? He is the biggest hack sports writer in town.
  4. Classic PJ Fleck week 1 game. I’m very impressed with the young QB Drake Lindsey. His WRs and TEs have been letting him down most of the game. He should have way over 300 yards passing this game. Call me a homer but I think whenever Lindsey declares for the draft, he’ll be a 1st round draft prospect. Can Fleck keep him here until he declares? No one knows.
  5. Drake Lindsey has some serious zip on his passes. Might be another good one for the Gophers.
  6. Oh my. It’s gonna be a heavyweight fight in the NFC North this year
  7. Yep, they probably should trade both. My hope is Falvey and Baldelli are both fired after this season and the new GM keeps 1 of Ryan or Lopez to lead the new and improved culture.
  8. We got a little teaser last weekend and now it’s officially here! I am weirdly optimistic about the Gophers this year. I have no delusions of them making it to the Big 10 (really 18) championship game, but I could see a 9-10 win team this year if the new QB Lindsay is legit. Texas is my adopted football team after living down there several years. The preseason #1 ranking is aggressive. Saturday is going to be a big challenge going to Ohio State. Can’t wait!
  9. Go shirtless tomorrow so I can spot you on camera
  10. That half inning looked familiar against a left handed breathing pitcher
  11. I’d feel a lot better if it was the end of the 8th instead of the 6th. Lots of time left for Toronto to carve up our bullpen
  12. This is my life more often than not for my job. This is a nightmare and why I look for emergency exit rows to book at the very least.
  13. Come on Keaschall you can’t let that by you without acting like a goalie in hockey
  14. Depths are probably the most terrifying. You’ll never see me deep sea diving. I swim well enough to survive and that’s it
  15. An embarrassing story that I’ll share. Last year a friend of mine wanted to watch a Twins game in the 300s section of TF in the highest row of the stadium. We were behind home plate, and feeling the breeze on my back plus being up that high freaked me out. We had to move down to other seats because I could not sit there the entire game.
  16. I can say with 100% certainty I could not do what Audra did right there. As I get older my fear of heights has grown. Can’t do it
  17. Are you a flats or drummies kind of guy?
  18. Grand Rapids, MN boy as I’m looking at his Wikipedia! The goalie everyone to this day still emulates is Patrick Roy. Loved him. And Dominik Hasek with his legendary 2 pad stack
  19. Royce with new blue bling around his neck that I’ve never seen before
  20. This is a challenge for me as a former goalie in hockey… Felix Potvin but idk who Casey is.
  21. Left handed breathing pitchers usually look like Mark Buerhle in his prime against us so this is a pleasant surprise
  22. Well god dang I chose a good time to sit on the couch! Lee no doubter!
  23. Tuning in now. We’ve got ourselves a shootout tonight eh?
  24. Is this another case of calling up another injury rehab guy up too soon? SWR had a significant stomach illness and lost a bunch of weight
  25. So many sick people in this world. This shooter was a psychopath. Evidently they posted their manifesto on YouTube yesterday before carrying out the act today.
