No, they really should've actually Rick-rolled the dome. SDSU media guy (handing over memory stick): "Uh yeah, our entry video ... no need to cue it up. Just, uh, ... roll it." < snickers-coughs-snickers > < runs for press box door >

How cynical about UND MBB am I? I flipped the Midco to 622 and read the bottom of the screen and saw just seconds to half, but my biases had me seeing UND -10, not +10. Me: "Great. Figures." TV companion: "What? They're up." Me: < blink, blink >, < rub eyes > "Hoe. Lee. ... " When the Baldwin guy dropped a nice 3 with about 3 to play (to go up 14) I almost allowed myself a Grinchish smirk. Credit where credit is due: Nice win. Impressed. Now don't get fat and sassy. People will see that and be ready for you.

I (unfortunately) have been on both sides of this. When you're on the good side, yeah, flip your line rotation so the 4 and 3 units are out there more. And we rolled some D at F and F at D. We put guys into unusual roles to build future depth. When you're on the bad side there's not much you can to ... but get chippy.

Nobody looks good in white pants. And football is after Labor Day so it's a fashion faux-pas. That's according to my fashion adviser.

No. Parts of three schemas is why --> green helmet, grey jersey, white pants. The jersey should've been green or the pants grey.

FYP.

Tan lines are for wimps. Toughen up, buttercups.

How many collegiate goalies are out there right now that could leapfrog Cam for the starting job?

Today's phrase of the day is ...

I 'member.

What was the deal with that? Did Jerry think it was September 19?

South Park Season 20 is a great documentary on the life of a troll.

Nah, I'd like to see HB do it to them.

That's the mode I'd like to see. The first step is to not be afraid to put someone down 30 points.

No. Just, ... no. I want some games to be flat out gimmes. It allows sitting starters (to protect from injury) and getting the second and third team reps for the future.

Can't make stuff that bad up.

And I thought touching an official is a no-no. Moore's coppin' a feel!

Honestly, he's more likely to get hurt in college play than WJC play. They let way more (slash) go in college.

Dozier on the trading block? http://www.inforum.com/sports/4173316-dozier-blockbuster-trade-works

I'm sure ETP and the Morton County Sheriff's Office caused and inflicted that on the camp too.

Fair? The Fair is in Minot. Spirit Lake went mute when UND needed them to speak up one more time.

Blais to PHI; Hakstol back to UND.

Well, during negotiations MSG offered the NYR and the Knicks but only $40M/yr for ten for UND Hockey and UND MBB. Kennedy wasn't so sure so he sent a negotiator to let MSG know his concerns (photo of negotiations). Seeing that Phil Jackson said there were too many wheels in motion in that so they drew the package back down a bit to be just hockey. Just an unconfirmed rumor ... for now.
