Gophers might as well fold the football program if the Cornhuskers and the Irish are added to the BIG 10. Gophers are already projected pretty much last in the BIG 10 and adding two football power houses like Nebraska and Notre Dame to the BIG 10 would be the nail in the coffin for MN football. I...

we can't seem to get over the curse of the Yankees!

I was at the game last night and will tell you that I am a little pissed that I don't get to see the end of the game today. The rain started in the 3rd inning. Once it started it was pretty hard and could have been called well before they finished the magical 5th inning. We sat around and drank...

I happen to be flipping through the channels last night as I do not watch much NBA but I caught the last quarter and OT of last nights game and am now a firm believer that the refs were throwing that game. I could care less who won but it sure seemed like anytime the Celtics touched or came close...

The Twins have to be the lowest team for average with runners in scoring position. Last night again they left the bases loaded twice. They showed the stat at the begining of the game and it was around .150 with bases loaded. That stat needs to pick up. Pavano pitched a pretty decent game but when...

The Twins just signed the janitor for target feild as the newest player. Sources say the Twins are looking for someone who can sweep.

I heard after the Childress news conference that the Twins signed Jim Thome to a one year deal. Not confirmed yet. There is the power the Twins need at DH. I hope he has something left in the tank like Favre had.
