The Sicatoka

Canad unveils theater and water park plan.

He got the "natural" by scoring three goals in a row (no teammate or opponent scoring in between). His "natural" just happened to be his 2nd-3rd-4th goals on the night. A hat trick is hard. A natural hat trick is harder. A natural hat trick in a period is just amazing.

Lost in the shuffle of Bochenski's four goal outing is that he had something nearly as rare: A natural hat trick in one period.

It cost over $6,000,000.00 to run UND Athletics last year. I like it when they come up with creative ways like this to raise money. They get operating cash. The fans get cool stuff.

Indubitably.

Too bad I couldn't get some of that "bad luck" action on that big PowerBall jackpot a couple weeks back.

I thought once the game starts the South Club Room reverts back to being a bar for all arena patrons and standing space for SRO tickets. I didn't like all the 'maroons' in there either, but that's where their tickets were.

Isn't the West Coast offense a short passing game used to set up the run? I saw NDSU's short passing game with Enos at OC (Evidence: Burrell's and Johnson's YPC), but I daren't call what they were doing a true West Coast offense. That mindset is pass first. NDSU still seemed in a run first mindset. I will say the part of the WC they did best was effect use of the TE on the unders and crosses. Maybe Bohl will hire Frank Solich as his new OC.

There is no "Coaches Club at the REA." "Coaches Club" is a membership level within the Fighting Sioux Club. The South Club Room is for Fighting Sioux Club members before games. The North Club Room is open to the public (I believe). If you have problems with how REA is doing things talk to them. If you have problems with how the FSC is doing things talk to Mark Rudolph. Fair enough?

1. Consider the source. 2. This is Thread Number 8,642,891 on this subject I believe. Only Zach knows.

Last year Zach started fast out of the gate and slowed down at the end. (I think he admitted he got tired at the end of the season in one article.) This year he's slow (for Zach) out of the scoring gate; however, he was hampered by a knee problem also. Here's hoping we get to see him sprint to the end ala Finland. PS - Zach isn't out there just for scoring. That's what makes him special.

First, old news. This has been brewing since last summer. I'd bet most of those affected will move out of DIII when (notice I didn't say if) it passes. Next, a story in USA Today? I thought no one cared about college hockey.

I've been meaning to ask the administrator about this ..... Jim Dahl plays for Anchorage?

A simple "Has Parise envy" would work on the penalty box glass.

Ah, the Oakland Raiders of the NHL.

Tickets or beer?

Not to be blunt, but here's how it will shake out: The BCS schools will do exactly what will keep the most money in their pockets. Do I know what that is? It's anyone's guess.

"Parise envy" is a chronic psychosis for some Minnesota fans.

UAA has Parise envy.

This conversation reminds me why I have Midcontinent Cable. (They carry FSSN.) PS - To test your systems out, don't forget that "Sioux Illustrated - The TV Show" is on at 7:00 pm Thursday nights (GF time) and re-run before Friday home games at 7:05 pm (game time 7:35 pm).

I'm one of the others who's never been banned (or even warned) from POI even after some pretty good 'disagreements' there. (Hence, my point of Dangerfield, "I don't get no respect," treatment. ) Heck, I think I was posting on POI before you ever were.

Ahem. More of the "Rodney Dangerfield" treatment I guess. Posting boards are like houses: There's how you can get away with acting in yours, and how you should act when you are a guest in another's.

.... Fournier's off-season work ethic?

I suspect CC would leave DIII before your scenario would come to pass.

No reason? I can think of at least nine reasons or obstacles. - Alaska-Anchorage - Colorado College - Denver University - Michigan Tech - Minnesota - Minnesota-Duluth - Minnesota State - Mankato - St. Cloud State - Wisconsin They're not going to stand aside and hand over a league banner. Looking past those 'reasons' is disrespectful and a formula for failure. Play 'em. Play 'em hard. Go from there.
