    Football General Talk

    FWIW where will Thielen go? Love to see him with Mahomes or Josh Allen. He's lost a step or two but can still play and is a good blocker. Needs a guy that will hit him if he gets open.

    Football General Talk

    I don't have a high opinion of our GM right now but given that i don't think he is that dumb! Worse than normal declining Rogers with all the drama--no thanks! The vikings badly need--in no particular order: - A new GM--or at least a new team evaluating draft picks. And a threat by the...

    Football General Talk

    I forgot the name of the guy the 49ers got when they traded Tittle to the giants. So did everyone else! I trot that out in discussions of the worst trade in history...need something to make me feel better about the Herschel Walker trade....:confused:

    Weekend Libations

    Any Oregon folks able to verify that Rogue Ales has shuttered its doors? Decades old enjoyment of some of their stuff. They once had a strong scotch ale that was one of my favorite sipoers in front of a fire on a winters night.

    3/4 ton 4x4 recommendations

    The 3 liter duramax 1/2 ton gm trucks get good mileage. Max tow rating rivals older 3/4s, 12k I think. As mine broke in i got 29 mpg with a topper on it...21 to 22 pulling an 18 foot boat.

    Any hockey fans out there?

    TWO of the hottest goalies in the league and their young players with oodles of talent are starting to play better--and a few key guys coming back from injury--the near future sure looks good! Still a player or two away but they will have the money to remedy that if they choose right!

    New to ML hunting

    45 caliber, open sites...if you have the right rifle with newer bullets and have a place to sight in at distance and can estimate distance and the steep drop at distance And estimate any wind drift...theres still the matter of energy at distance being enough to insure a clean kill. Not sure a...

    Black powder substitutes?

    Well I made the switch to white hots and liking it in two ways...it is quite a bit cleaner than triple 7 pellets...given i had a hell of a time getting a 2nd load down when i didnt drop a deer on the spot using 777....that matters to me. And at least in my short sight in period it sure seems...

    Whats with E bikes in whitetail hunting?

    Cant imagine my state is much different than other northern states. We have a lot of motorized trails and roads that are closed in spring to prevent damage. These are NOT non-motorized, just seasonally closed to motorized. Bikes are generally ok and e bikes have a power and speed limit in...

    CWD research

    I might take a more nuanced view than the OP, but I have some problems with its presentation. I might have some bias, as the same group has been working on a live test for CWD for which IMO claims have been stretched -- and their work has been grabbed by deniers and captive deer folks as reason...

    Mike Lee is back with Border Lands Conservation effort to derail the Wilderness Act.

    Just hit the news here...the BWCA is projected to be heavily impacted. I might have to get one of those Mike Lee hats. The US rep in the area is all for it (Stauber). Literally done nothing for his constituents, toes the extreme line well though...and has a nice habit of praising projects...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    Catching Up on this. Several things. Tuition at the university of Minnesota = $16,500 for residents. A year....unless you are poor. Just guessing but re: my earlier point I'd assume the bottom line cost between Mn and Wyoming isnt much different, but state support is. Also this was our...
