The Kare 11 interview with Nadine this evening, where she mentioned all the new traffic on Gopherhole lately, reminded me that some of my favorite things about the site are the reoccurring humor topics and this stuff might be lost on new people. With that in mind what are some of your favorite reoccurring themes and for those of you that are newer, which ones would you like to know more about?

For example:

The tales of heat and humidity in Tennessee via Dance4Raiders

Aggievision

Chair leg


Others?
 


40 times - hand-held vs. electric

the backup QB is always better than the starter

various long-time posters and their "quirks" - i.e. Dr. Don drinking; Wren/The Walrus on "Big Ten Wins," dpodoll fact-checking other posters, etc.
 


The "oops -- wrong forum" thread feels a little slighted at not being on the original list.
 




The Essen Haus stein that Detlef lost in a game of 6-5-4
 

Everyone agrees Mason's time had ended and he needed to go.

The killer polar bears with knives.

THE all time classic of sightings and hanging out at the airport checking airplane tail numbers during the coach search. That one had every screen refreshing every ten seconds for fear of missing something.
 


Dp going to airports when a new coach arrives.
 



Chair leg in the eye socket by a rabid wisconsin fan is a good one, good call.

Wren and HIS War AND Peace POSTS with RANDOM all CAPS.

Loon and his epic meltdown.
 


spirals are the most important metric of a QB

dots not stars

don't forget the importance of big ten wins
 

Shaka Smart (or any other coaching candidate) being sighted at the Vu or riding roller coasters at the Mall of America.

The height of basketball players being measured barefoot or in shoes.

Whether winning a few games in the NIT is better than losing in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

A 2% chance of Trevor Mbakwe getting a 6th year.
 

Most of my favorites have been mentioned:
1. AJ's Mom's Best Friend
2. Hand Held vs. Electronic 40 Times
3. Documenting when planes leave airports and come back to Minneapolis
 

Favorite uniform combo.
New 4th quarter song.
 

The great dichotomy - "how hot's your chili" or did we "cool" on him? Or, more 4 Star guys or stars don't matter, we can coach 'em up!

In addition to QBs getting better with age, so do coaches!

Oh, and all the TC sports writers are tools!
 

Which coach in which sport needs to be fired this year for whatever reason so we can get our annual fix.

Oh, and whether free throws have any importance at all.
 

trolls,
fadgers,
Iowa fans misbehaving badly - Vodka Sams, Lois Feldman
Gopher quarterbacks, Mitch Leidner is not a Div 1 QB
 

Sit or stand?

Mason vs. Brewster. Mason vs. Kill. Mason vs. Stoll. Mason vs. Prexy...

We just need the right Coach. The right Coach will never come here because of the Administration.

Until a Coach fails it is because of the lack of support. When the Coach fails it's because he did a lousy job. Until the new Coach fails, than it's because of the lack of support.
