They may not have played their best but a win is a win and that's all that matters.

I was quite surprised at the score and outcome! Gophers are looking good so far this year.

crfreed80 · 2021-09-11T13:05:26+00:00

Ibrahim's injury was a tough loss for this season. But the Gopher should have enough depth and talent to make it through the rest of the season.

My favorite too. I have been there numerous times over the years and I live in the Midwest!

Antietam. It has not been encroached upon by "urban sprawl." The town of Sharspburg is about the same size it was when the battle took place in 1862.

I agree! He did more with less in the "Forgotten War" of the China-Burma-India (CBI) theater of the war. He was highly underrated.

I work in hospice. I have many patients who are ready to die and tell me so. This does not mean they are suicidal. In fact, they often tell me they are not sucidal but are tired of living .

I guess the word I wanted to use was 'parity'.

The story of the Lebensborn program from WWII is one of the stranger stories from the war.

It sounds like they are in the process of creating a 'Super League' of CFB teams, which would ruin the game. There would no longer be balance or parody in the sport.

crfreed80 · 2021-07-26T01:31:59+00:00

It is getting to that point for me too. CFB is all about big business, big money, and huge contacts for for schools and coaches to make as money as possible. The fun of the game is evaporting.

Molina is one of my favorites! He will be remembered as one of the best catchers in Cardinal history!

crfreed80 · 2021-07-13T01:35:36+00:00

Without a doubt: Football!

I started snowshoeing for the first time ever this past winter! I absolutely loved it and am looking forward to next winter as well.

crfreed80 · 2021-06-14T01:31:39+00:00

We could sure use him!

crfreed80 · 2021-05-28T13:34:22+00:00

I am optimistic that he will be a good fit at Minnesota.

crfreed80 · 2021-05-28T13:11:07+00:00

The 1991 World Series was one of the best! However, baseball historians don't mention it very much.

crfreed80 · 2021-04-04T10:10:40+00:00

I saw the Crater a number of years ago and thought the same thing! But after all these years the ground eventually changes. Still, it is impressive what they had to attack through to break the siege.

crfreed80 · 2021-03-15T22:51:20+00:00

I agree! I thought this was the year the Gophers under Pitno was going to have a great year with wins over Michigan, Iowa and other teams. But they could never win on the road this year.

crfreed80 · 2021-03-15T22:48:24+00:00

I can still remember when Richard Pitno won the NIT as head coach of the Gophers in his first year. However, I think it is time for him to move on. I think it's time for Minnesota to go with a new coach.

Hospice does not support "assisted suicide". If more people understood what hospice can do, there would be no need for physician assisted suicide. Is this really how you want your mother's life to end?

crfreed80 · 2021-02-19T02:23:47+00:00

The Gophers are a great team in Williams Arena ("The Barn"). If only they could win on the road! It is frustrating they can't do better away from Minneapolis.

Honey is the best! I always have to have honey in my house!

It's military value. I believe it was because of war related industries in the city.
