Great job by second year head coach Hannah Nielsen. She has 11 wins already after a season and 4 games in 2019. All her predecessor could muster was 20 wins......in 4 years.

You keep posting this. What is it about?

User mgobobb posted a thread on the board titled "Football" with absolutely zero content.
It has since lived on in Mgoblog lore.

A timeless classic. I’m just trying to start a tradition in my own modest way. All glory to mgobobb and football. Football.

Why don't you start your own empty thread instead of jacking everyone else's thread?
Negbang the thread jackers!

Wow. Thanks. Missed that as I was golfing in Vegas. I'd prefer people post shit like that while I'm at work so I'll see it.

Chicks with sticks!
Any MgoBloggers with young daughters get your girls a LAX stick and start them playing early. It’s an awesome sport for girls and fun to watch as a parent.

i dunno, man. my sister-in-law played when she was in high school and all i remember was constant stoppages in play because sticks near faces or something. maybe it's just an issue of rule education for the players, coaches, AND spectators, but jebus it was excruciating.

It’s more of a Midwest thing and lack of experienced officials. When the girls are skilled and the officials let them play, like they do out east, it’s a thing of beauty. It’s getting better.
Boys Lax is like Hockey. Girls Lax should be played like basketball. You can’t foul but it’s very physical.
