What gave you the impression I was a fan of PRO hockey over college hockey?

And are you going to try to argue that a person has to go to a school to qualify as a fan? YES, I went to college. I went to UMD, hence Maroon and Gold. And I chose to go to a religious college after that, so that meant the UMn was not an option.

I figured I needed to justify my existence and fandom, since you challenged us on that accord.



Northwestern?

Bethel?

You facepalmed this... so, Refute it...

oh wait...

you can't.


I didn't feel it was worthy of being responded to. NO, I'd doubt even a majority of recruits are little mommas boys that feel the need to play in front of mommy and daddy, and I'm not sure I'd want little pussy momma boys like that on my team? Some of them, maybe, but for the most part, I want boys who want to become MEN. Most of those types have no desire to remain close to home.

It does mean something to some... but those kids aren't starting at an SEC school, where they might at a U of M. :laugh:

In all honesty — the only 5 star guys Michigan gets are either from in state or guys like Gary, Peppers, or most recently Daxton Hill. Elite recruits who have 3.8, 3.9 GPA’s and actually are interested in getting a degree:lol:

are you Swede? I know a fair amount of folks from around the state, and there's a good sized population of Swedes west of the TCs.... they're a strange lot. It'd make a lot of sense.

What does a Fortune 500 company have to do with CFB recruiting?:L

And yes — recruits in Georgia, Florida, Texas, California, Ohio, etc have all top teams coming after their recruits.

So what does a team like Clemson have an advantage over a team like Minnesota for say a Florida recruit or a Georgia recruit? LOCATION. These recruits were brought up watching the ACC and SEC, some were brought up Clemson fans by their parents.

In B1G country, you are brought up watching B1G football. Every kid wants to play for championships, but many kids don’t want to travel across country to try. So Georgia kids usually go to Georgia or a school in the ACC or SEC. It isn’t rocket science.

If you went to Georgia and to sell a recruit on Minnesota you said — we have a lot of Fortune 500 companies in our state. They’d laugh you out of their house.


Not if they wanted a good job after they graduated you Neanderthal. How many cfb players make it into the NFL??? DUH

European mut. Mom was from Yellow Medicine County, dad from St. Paul Park. Both grew up dirt poor, and busted ass for me and my sisters.

You didn't call me a nutjob leftist. That was either @PnkPanther or @gobucks0409. Go back and look. I got a memory that would go unchallenged around these parts.

Get your facts straight, bro.


Well, I meant to include you in that classification. If you didn't feel included, well, feel included.

No, I brought that up to expose in part, YOUR ignorance. Too many jackasses like you have the impression that Minnesota is this little loser school located in Siberia. Which is funny being you are a West Virginnie fan, lol. I mean, I have to laugh. WVU has had a little more success recently than Minnesota, in just the 2 sports, so you think that makes you all big and bad? lol The only way a WSU kind of school will EVER become relevant, is if they get uber lucky on the coaching thing. But WSU so far in history, has been a stepping stone school, for the most part. I don't pay attention to WSU sports, so you are welcome to provide the evidence that could prove otherwise.

I'll admit this is in part UMn's own fault, but ignorance is not an excuse, you need to be taught to respect those who gave you all of the good things you enjoy in your life. For your own good.

There is no ignorance to expose though clown. I’m not the one defending my school being something false. It’s simple as that.

I’m not downing Minnesota at all. I’m digging at you for being an absolute jackass because your team won 11 games for the first time in your life time. Minnesota deserves better than fans like you that want to say ridiculous things after one good season in years. You trying to dig up every excuse you can and still not make your point stick is the epitome of a loser.

I'm not interested in a political debate, I've been avoiding the PF for that specific reason. I believe you're referring to her comments on Israel and dual loyalty. There are certainly conservatives, including our VP, who says they're Christian first. And supporters of Israel are just as likely to be a conservative christian as they are Jewish (Palin, Huckabee, come to mind)

But how we're on this road on a topic of college football is a mystery.

I’m with you on not having a political debate. I’m just stating how it’d look if the Shoe was on the other foot. It’d be called racism left and right.

We got there because brain dead Fred is trying to tell the world Minnesota U is Gods gift to the earth.
