Maybe you have forgotten, but your beloved Hawkeyes went into TCF Bank Stadium last fall and laid a giant egg and lost Floyd of Rosedale to a crappy team with non-existent fans.<br /><br />As Dave said, Gopher fans should be lauded for continuing to show up to the stadium to support the team due to its terrible performance the last few decades with exception of the Mason years.<br /><br />By your logic, there are no Iowa Basketball fans either. Carver Hawkeye arena was a morgue the last few years.<br /><br />As for Kill's extension, the U of M gave him the extension in place of increasing his yearly salary since they are still paying Brewster NOT to coach.<br /><br />Oh, one more thing. Here's a reminder of what happened last fall-<br /><br />http://www.twincities.com/portlet/article/html/imageDisplay.jsp?contentItemRelationshipId=4040579Chris from Urbandalenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27489210.post-51777048818844887662011-10-27T04:48:57.390-05:002011-10-27T04:48:57.390-05:00Dave, are we talking about the same "rabid an...Dave, are we talking about the same "rabid and probably more loyal" Minnesota fans that seemed outnumbered in their own (new) stadium by Nebraska fans last Saturday? The same fans that were consistently matched in number by Iowa fans every time I visited the Metrodome for an Iowa-Minnesota game?

That is one more time than the Cyclones have. The last time the Cyclones outright won their conference (we had a "shared" division title in 2004) was 1912.Evil Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16598661191237587179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27489210.post-4816139731848102282011-10-26T08:24:05.488-05:002011-10-26T08:24:05.488-05:00Sorry Chris but since Brooke is in that Cityview c...Sorry Chris but since Brooke is in that Cityview contest, no one else has a prayer.

Instead of this awesome, locally made gif (http://www.widerightnattylite.com/2011/10/25/2512440/paul-rhoads-live-at-jack-trice-stadium), you link to a negative one on an Aggie site? And Monday when KCCI and WOI led with the actual top ISU story, Jared Barnett, you chose to be negative about CPR's passion for his team. Are you jealous of CPR because KF looks like he's in a coma on the sidelines?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27489210.post-37264679298409560262011-10-26T05:25:57.372-05:002011-10-26T05:25:57.372-05:00Chris,

In fact, they are as rabid and probably more loyal than Iowa or Iowa State fans. For all the futility that the Minnesota program has fought through over the last 50 years since their last national championship they deserve a medal. And believe me...they hate Iowa for all of our recent success...and for that couple's "interlude" at the dome a couple years ago. :)Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08359504284433957528noreply@blogger.com
