Oh geeze, Noisemax says that “Illegal Voting by Non-Citizens Threatens Mid-Term Elections.” Cripes almighty, they forgot to add that the illegal voters will be spreading ebola too.

@raven: That’s the product of very cleverly scheduling all of our weak opponents early in the season. Northwestern is all right, but other than that, the only decent or better team Minnesota has played (TCU) shredded us. I fully expect us to lose our last four games after today (Iowa; Ohio State; Nebraska; Wisconsin) and then our bowl game.

@raven: Well, consider that my idea of “good” may be warped by having as my primary rooting interest a team that has gone 85-2-2 since the start of the 20012-13 season.

i’m watching a couple college teams (ok, one college team; the other is michigan) and see a lot of players – especially O-linemen – wearing knee braces. question 1: why don’t more/all players wear them? question 2: why don’t more players in the pros use them?

Nice to see the PGA taking action against someone for posting homophobic/misogynistic/just weird comments.

Minnesota is so lucky getting that pass interference call. Even if it was a good call, the play was stupid.
