Final perspective on Minnesota Football in 2017? Losing sucks, but give it time.

Apparently I’m getting old. I say that because I’ve now been around the Gophers blogsphere long enough to see patterns and think that some of this sounds awfully familiar. We are all sitting through a frustrating season where the team isn’t quite meeting expectations that many of us had at the beginning of the season. And as a result there are two factions that develop in the fan base.

The first that likes to stake out the “reasonable” high ground and preach patience. I am in this camp and struggle not to sound preachy, condescending and Polly Ann-ish.
