Take one to know one and you SPRAY more than you ever say - what a jerky comment!   This hire has UND's approval as well - they were part of the process and because of that will likely be for more than "one more year"...grow up!  

Agreed, this hire should lock up a contract extension for Midco

Looks like Midco is bringing up a douche nozzle from South Dakota for the hockey broadcasts.....wow.  

At least it's just for one more year.

Just the opposite...contract extension for Midco.  I will let others speculate.  

[Alerus Atmosphere]

Just spoke to Bubba about the Alerus the other day.  He assures me the lights will be off again for the introduction and they are working with ICON on doing some better things with video boards.  Bubba is all about the atmosphere and said the Alerus is on board as well.

Very good to hear !!!

Want to swing over there, what time does it end?

[Two players arrested]

I agree, but luckily for us the boosters do not decide the punishment.. Bubba does

[Two players arrested]

Very minor offenses...classified the same as a minor in posession. 

[UND (7-6) vs UNC (5-8)]

I spoke to bubba after the game and he thought the students (his players) were great

Spoke to Ratelle the other day.  He is planning to attend NDSU and Gopher's pro days.

[Dan Hammer leaving Midco]

No, its not been worth it. Why do you think WDAZ didn't sign that deal? Midco had to give up roughly 40% of its advertising slots to UND and the remaining slots that Midco could sell were only to lower level advertisers. I believe the top level package they were pushing was around $30k and as you can see during the games, they are not selling many spots. Not only that but the REA was charging Midco $500 a day to keep their HD truck outside the Ralph. UND really positioned themselves to make a lot of money without doing much of the work.

Wrong on many points.  Midco did not give away any spots to UND.  UND is a premier sponsor and has been since day 1.  They along with the other three premier sponsors pay well in excess of 30k to have a presence in all broadcasts. The Ralph charges a one time fee for the production truck to be parked out back.
