New Gopher's Stadium

The video is a bit long. We Gopher fans have been suffering even longer.

Gophers Recruiting Class Ranked 16 Nationally
"In all, Brewster's 2008 class includes seven four-star prospects (on a scale of five), according to Rivals.com rankings, and will finish in the Top 25 nationally. By comparison, from 2002-2007, the Gophers signed only four four-star recruits total and had an average national ranking of 54."

Unbelievable

Re: NKOTB

Just in case anyone tuned out during the 90s and missed the New Kids On The Block, 98 degrees, 'N Sync, and the Backstreet Boys, here's a nice little summary of all of their collective works:

Prince Akeem Loves Eli Manning


Oh sir, the Giants of New York took on the Packers of Green Bay. And in the end, the Giants triumphed by kicking an oblong ball made of pigskin through a big “H”. It was a most ripping victory. -Prince Akeem

joe Normal: you cant be serious
Roxy Normal: mice don't carry diseases.
Roxy Normal: rats do.
joe Normal: then let's just leave the mice be. the kids will love them
Roxy Normal: I didn't say I like mice. I said I hate cats more than I hate mice.

Roxy Normal: Not true.

Another One Bites the Dust

Steve walks warily down the street,
With the brim pulled way down low
Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet,
Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat

Another one bites the dust

Are you getting the munchies?

Happy Thanksgiving

“A lot of people have asked me how the Schrutes enjoy the traditional holiday of ‘Thanksgiving.’ The answer is simple. We do not. Celebrating a holiday that encourages blind appreciation for everything and anything in a person’s life diminishes the rare instances that a person is truly thankful for something, i.e. when that person is pulled from a well they may have fallen into. Giving thanks is also a sign of weakness.”

-Dwight K. Schrute

Young T-Wolves

I'm excited about the up-coming Wolves season. They have a new crop of 3 1/2 ft players straight out of junior high school. Should be good.

They call me "Trinity"

Trinity University (TX) v. Millsaps College. 15 laterals to victory. I was at the game.
Actually, I wasn't. But I'm a huge Trinity fan.
OK, I've never heard of them, but I did see "They Call Me Trinity" (20 years ago).

He just waved at me... because I was staring.

I was stunned at how short he was.

Congress

I'm sitting 5 feet from Keith Ellison at Dunn Brothers as I write this.

After Louis Farrakhan he is probably the most famous American Muslim.

Myanmar (Burma)


History repeating itself, or prophecy from an 80's & 90's Australian rock band?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Will the sons of Solidarity, Still march on May Day?
Will the sisters of the seventies, Still fight for equal pay?
There's no-one on the Reeperbahn, No more blankets handed out for land.
We feed an economy, It's got blood on it's hands!
-
Mountains of Burma! The road to Mandalay...
Mountains of Burma! Light years away...
In the mountains of Burma! The road to Mandalay...
In the mountains of Burma! Hope you're light years away...
-
Pack your (pack your) bags full of guns and ammunition...
Bills fall (bills fall) due for the industrial revolution...
Scorch the (scorch the) earth till the earth surrenders.
-
Soldiers of armies, Storm empty fields,
In a traveller's trance, On the way to the high frontier,
Sleepwalkers stumble! Cable cars run aground!
Imaginary enemies, Form high above the clouds!
-
In the Mountains of Burma...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
