    Yale vs. Minnesota

    I hope Yale wins on the sloppiest goal in the history of hockey.....and that it is reviewed for 10 min before being confirmed.....and that there is still alot of doubt of whether or not it was in!!

    I'll second that.

    UND vs Niagara - NCAA 1st round

    I dont know if its been mentioned yet but Saturday's championship game on TV follows LACROSSE

    High stakes championship lacrosse? Or regular run of the mill lacrosse that will go endless overtimes? Not that either justifies joining hockey already in progress

    Okay, I misunderstood your point. Here's what I'll concede: it's great that Gopher fans have some creative cheers that are not vulgar --though I'm not sure how much creative thought went into "Sioux's a girl's name" or the sign about Robbie Bina that's better left ambiguous here. Doesn't cancel out the use by Gopher fans of cheers that ARE vulgar. And, yes, I have witnessed lo these many years Sioux fan conduct that made me cringe. I wouldn't be one to argue that our fan base is purest of the pure.

    Lets not kid ourselves like Sioux fans are all saints either. I've been in the Ralph for the F the Gophers chant, heck I could hear it crystal clear on TV too. Along with several other bad ones. Every team have some of "those" fans, we saw it in Duluth a year or so ago with some tasteless Native American innuendos. I've heard pretty vulgar stuff at Wild games too, which is pretty sad because these events are becoming less and less family friendly.

    I'm all for having fun, cheering loud, and getting crazy at games, but too many people don't know where to draw the line. I hate to admit it, but the Gopher student section is one of the few that actually has some creative cheers that aren't vulgar. I wish UND could get some of those going, with the way our student section is setup is would be great and very loud.

    Gopher student section without a vulgar cheer? I don't think so. One of their favorites was certainly audible at the Final 5 last weekend. When an opposing player is sent to the box, their chant ends with "you worthless piece of !@#$." All in good fun, I suppose.

    I'm using reverse psychology, Minnesota to win it.

    Based on my results in Sioux Survivor this year, I have just doomed them to a 6-1 first round loss.

    So, it's Opposite Day in Bizzaro World or would that be the equivalent of a double negative?
