REVIEW: Western Governor’s University

When 19 governors of western states put their heads together, sometimes people aren’t so sure of the result; but when the result is a top-notch academic online university like Western Governor’s University, there’s nothing to worry about and plenty of interest.
Probably the most welcome feature is the university’s online teacher’s college, which offers convenient ways [...]

Gophers fall to Texas A&M in 76 Classic

They lost by only one point, but Coach Tubby Smith sent a strong message about team discipline to his Minnesota Gophers this weekend, proving that his team’s 22-ranking and winning doesn’t prevent him from doing what’s right to keep the team on-track both on and off court.
This season, Smith has been playing without top recruits [...]

Timberwolves finally get second win!

Maybe Denver felt sorry for us. Maybe they saw how young and in need of acne treatment our players were and threw us a pity bone.
Whatever the case, the Minnesota Timberwolves finally got their second win of the season, and only after racking up a 15-game losing streak, setting a new franchise record for worst [...]

Bears crumble in Dome, Vikes now 10-1!

The stars on offense were all over the place in the Metrodome Sunday as Farve completed 32 of 48 passes for just under 400 yards (I guess Brett’s not quite ready for Medicare supplement insurance just yet, eh, Cheeseheads?), Percy Harvin had a career game for a rookie, gaining 101 yards receiving and 45 yards [...]

Vikes gain ground during bye week

The NFC North got one step closer to being clinched even though the Vikings took the week off this past weekend; both Chicago and Green Bay lost, dropping to 4-4. Now, while they can’t afford to look past anyone, the main motivator for the second half of the season should now become gaining a first-round [...]

Wild last in conference

I don’t follow the Minnesota Wild very closely; in fact, I know as much about the Wild as I do about floor tiles. It’s not a passion of mine. But I understand they are currently 5-9 on the season and dead last in the Northwest division. I’m guessing that’s pretty bad.
But that’s also what you [...]

Weber, Gophers survive Michigan State

It was sloppy, it was penalty-filled, and it probably made coach Tim Brewster wonder where he could find the best eye cream for wrinkles; but in the end, Minnesota gained 505 yards of total offense and a surprise 42-34 win over Michigan State on Saturday.
The victory puts the Gophers at 5-4 overall, 3-3 in Big [...]

Gophers have more to offer five-star recruit than most

Tubby Smith’s Minnesota Gophers have one more scholarship left for next year, and they’d like to keep it in the family; in the Joseph family, that is. By far, Cory Joseph, brother of Gophers freshman guard Devoe Joseph, would be the highest-rated recruit Smith had landed for the Gophers since coming here from Kentucky. Cory [...]

Wolves win first game, then drop two

The Minnesota Timberwolves have a whole new regime and a very different roster from a year ago, but even with Kurt Rambis and David Kahn in charge, the results are somewhat familiar; the team opened on a positive note with a win over New Jersey, but then dropped its next two games against Cleveland and [...]

Vikings sweep Packers, solidify first place

With a mostly-dominant 38-26 performance on the road at Lambeau Field, the Minnesota Vikings completed a regular-season sweep of the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, winning the second of two match-ups. Bouncing back after a disappointing loss to the defending Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers, the Vikings dominated the first half, 17-3, and scored quickly [...]
