So Podominick, as expected, is indeed gone. She wants to shot put at the Å’08 Olympics. Anybody can respect and support that. But there were implications that...
I agree with Marc, even more so I guess. As long as the Gophers can field a winning team, they should recruit pretty much exclusively in Minnesota. And...

If by tanking you mean trying to lose, I doubt it. If you want to talk underachieving, why mention Portland when you have the highly paid Knicks and their...

I don't think Portland has any Michael Jordan or even Kevin Garnett equivalents on their roster that they are tanking to supplement. And the "by winning"...
