  1. Goff, Lynch, Hackenberg, Wentz are all garbage.
  2. A few days after 10 Minnesota Golden Gophers football players were suspended from the team’s upcoming trip to the Holiday Bowl, the rest of the team has responded. The Star Tribune reported this afternoon that the team will threaten to boycott the game in protest of the suspensions. The players’ “demands” have not been made public, but they likely concern the reinstatement of all or some of the players: The Gophers had a players-only meeting Thursday and later brought in head coach Tracy Claeys to inform him of their plans, sources said. According to two parents of players, all of the team’s players are planning a united announcement Thursday evening to say they will boycott the Holiday Bowl if “their demands are not met” — a reference to their disagreement with the decision to suspend the 10 players. The report was also confirmed by USA Today’s Nicole Auerbach, who said that the team plans to announce the boycott tonight. The players’ lawyer told the Tribune that five of his clients could be expelled and another four face year-long suspensions. Four of the players involved missed three home games this season due to a restraining order filed by a victim of an alleged sexual assault. They were allowed to play road games, and once the restraining order expired, they played at home as well. However, an investigation by the University of Minnesota’s Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action office resulted in the fresh wave of suspensions, with Ray Buford, Carlton Djam, Seth Green, KiAnte Hardin, Dior Johnson, Tamarion Johnson, Kobe McCrary, Antonio Shenault, Antoine Winfield Jr., and Mark Williams all suspended for at least the Holiday Bowl. The victim says that a series of Minnesota football players raped her the night after the Gophers’ first game of the season, starting with Carlton Djam. After Djam, others followed. She told police she saw a line of men waiting to take turns. “I was removing myself from my mind and my body to help myself from the pain and experience going on,” she testified. She estimated there were at least a dozen men. “I was shoving people off of me,” she testified. “They kept ignoring my pleas for help. Anything I said they laughed. They tried to cheer people on.” She then called her sister and mother, who advised her to go the hospital. Shortly after, she called the police and they began an investigation. However, Djam insisted that it was consensual, and he showed the court 90 seconds worth of videos from that night which apparently convinced a police investigator that the alleged victim was “lucid” and “fully conscious.” Criminal charges were never filed in the case, and the Hennepin County Attorney’s office declined to prosecute. We’ll update this post when the supposed boycott announcement is made. Update, 7:35 p.m. EST: Right after the publication of this post, the Minnesota football team gathered and a player read a statement demanding a reversal of the suspensions, a private meeting with university officials, and immunity from retaliation against players or coaches. He urged the Holiday Bowl committee to be “patient” and said that he wanted the chance to “make our program great again.”
  3. TT is a pathological liar, I wouldn't believe that he really lost that much weight.
  4. Trump's presidency is going to be George Bush part 3 on steriods
  5. Pats tanked the last game of the year against the Dolphins last year, probably in an effort to keep players healthy for the playoffs, and it can easily happen again.
  6. Guess how many Missed Extra Point attempts there will be this week in NFL SUNDAY games (not Thur or Monday) Get it right you move on to next week. Make selections in this thread. Entry deadline will be Sunday at 12:59 Eastern time. Any entry 1:00 or later is Void.
  7. The Falcons have actually scored more touchdowns in L.A. this season than the Rams have.
  8. Also, GB defense hasn't been very good this season and they shut Seattle down.
  9. The reasons I saw you post were: 1)Rams have bad offense and bad coach. (True, and now a temp.coach) 2) Seahawks got it with no lube from GB this week, and they are going to be salty about it. My question still remains unanswered how are the Seahawks going to score enough points to cover, against a good Rams defense ?
  10. They would have but every time they got the ball it seemed like the sky opened up. The possessions with little or no rain they moved the ball pretty well. (and I am a Dolphin fan and I believed Ariz. would beat the Dolphins by at least a TD).
  11. Wow. "The Falcons have actually scored more touchdowns in L.A. this season than the Rams have":
  12. Why do you think that Seattle is the play here? Seems to me they will have a hard time scoring against the Rams defense.
  13. Cinci missed 1, Minnesota missed 1 and Arizona missed 2 = 4 misses total
  14. States not allowing fantasy football may have had some impact on this drop, along with the stupid fucks like Kaepernick.
  15. That link is from the Washington Post, CIA assesses Russia's interference with US election
  16. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/obama-orders-review-of-russian-hacking-during-presidential-campaign/2016/12/09/31d6b300-be2a-11e6-94ac-3d324840106c_story.html?hpid=hp_hp-top-table-main_russiahack-1215p%3Ahomepage%2Fstory&utm_term=.057d346e0496
  17. He will be turn 78 in 2019 when running and turn 79 in his first year as President (if elected)
