Around SBN: Clippers Need To Realize That Spurs Are The Anti-Grizzlies

What to do with a bye week...

Top 10 things to do on a fall Saturday when the Gophers are not playing...

10.  Get outside and enjoy the beautiful day.

9.  Watch last week's Minnesota upset at Illinois on TiVo!

8.  Do some advance scouting by watching the Purdue @ Northwestern game.

7.  Call all of your Wisconsin friends and ask them what is wrong with their team?

6.  Watch an SEC game but be careful we aren't used to watching that kind of speed.  You might get motion sickness.

5.  Tell your wife or girlfriend that you want to skip the Gopher game today and spend some quality time with her this afternoon.

4.  Then watch the Gopher hockey game tonight.

3.  Spend your afternoon reading archived posts on The Daily Gopher then send an e-mail to all of your friends telling them about your favorite blog.

2.  E-mail Joel Maturi and thank him for the hiring of Tubby Smith and Tim Brewster.

1.  Sit down in front of the TV and watch whatever football game you can find from 11:00 AM till 11:00 PM.

Well Looks Like

That Wisconsin Game is now pretty winable, i mean they are getting slaughtered by IOWA, Fricken Kirk Fierentz and IOWA!,

Took your advice and scouted some of the Purdue/Northwestern game. Wow, the times I was watching Purdue didn’t have much speed. Slow, slow, slow. I know Northwestern is a much improved team, but the Boliermakers looked pathetic at times.

Again, it will come down to getting turnovers and forcing Painter into 3rd and 7/8’s where he is more than likely to make mistakes.

Now some Ohio St (up 7-0) and Michigan State then raking a million leaves.

SEC Footbaw

Not only am I getting motion sickness, but I’m also going to have nightmares about getting blocked by Terrence Cody.

What I'm Doing During the Bye Week

Laughing at the Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadgers.

Because the Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadgers are freaking awful.

Man. . .I don’t even have the heart to e-mail Brent Bielema to let him know that all of Barry Alvarez’s players are graduating and that he’s not well and truly screwed until NEXT season.

Do you suppose there’s a place to display Paul Bunyan’s Axe at the new stadium? And the Little Brown Jug? And the Floyd of Rosedale? Because they’ll all look real nice at TCF Bank Stadium next September.

love to hear that Gonzo

all three trophies in our possession would be a sight to see and for my money you could give Brewster a lifetime contract. We haven’t had all three since 1967, also last time we won the Big Ten.

11. Do something active today cause you’ll be put into a deep sleep from watching the Kick Ass Offense tomorrow.

what you say here can, and will, be used against you

Amazing

Before I even read this, I had done #8, then #5 and #10 (beautiful Taylors Falls, MN, where I could stand on the MN side of the river and point and laugh at the eastern side of the river while checking the Iowa/Wisc score).

I will then do #4 and plan on celebrating in Dinkytown later on. Not too bad for a bye week!
