That ad makes FSSN ads look like Academy nomminies . . . but hey, it pays the bills for 'em I particularly enjoyed the slight delay with the audio, providing a Japanese-esque subtitle thing going on.

Or every time Hak hasn't had me standing next to Eades and Berry . . . they've won!

No . . . not at all . . . I discovered last weekend during the same game that whenever I needed to go to the bathroom after consuming an adult beverage, the opposing team scored. So either no beverages or no bathroom breaks - unless we're up by quite a few goals . . .

I was just wondering if anyone has any superstitions while watching the Sioux? Do you know of any current or former players' superstitions? I always see a Sioux player (Prpich?) leave his stick outside the locker room - superstitious?

Thanks PCM. I've enjoyed reading this each and every week. Yellow and blue, SDSU!

Hey, don't you have your own web site to post this stuff Friday night's game should be a nail biter indeed. It's going fairly well here, how's the land of NC?

Just an FYI, for us poor saps not at the Ralph this weekend, FSN North (MN feed) is now carrying all three games live this weekend, including the 8pm Saturday championship game. Unless the Gophs lose to HC , the MN Wild agreed to have their game tape-delyed and FSN will show the championship game live. If the Gophs lose on Friday, the West Regional game will be tape delayed Both Friday games are live too. Here's to a tape delayed game on Saturday - UND vs HC

Very good points. Hopefully the Sioux are concentrating on the maize and blue as Michigan is in a nice situation - nothing to lose. Plus, the Sioux are the host/home school and, I would think, have a lot of pressure to get to Milwaukee? Heck many are counting the Gophs in the underdog role now . . .

FSN Noth is now carrying both od Friday's games live . However, Saturday's championship game is tape delayed . It is live on ESN U and FSN North-Wisconsin feed . . .

Unfortunately, we just have the MN feed of FSN, along with the Fox College channels. No luck for the championship game Saturday until 10pm

I guess I wish the Gophs had won the FF - even against our squad. My fear is the "Wisconson Syndrom - Part Deux" happening again. I do like the wave of momentum for our squad, but now they are somewhat favorites and play on home ice. I may be naive, but I do think the Gophs have the talent to turn the switch on - hopefully I'm wrong.

I'm just curious on which scenerio you'd rather have our favorite college hockey team in 1) Getting embarrassed in the Final 5, getting dumped on by the national and local media, but now have the "us against the world," "prove the no grit thing wrong, " with a now"underdog" attitude and going to an arena where they've played pretty well. Or 2) Came out an unexpedidly won the Final 5, are now the somewhat the favorites to win it all, and now host the regional. Just wondering.

I was looking at the FSN North TV lisitings, and they have the Saturday 8pm championship game listed for 11pm after the MN Wild. Why is this always a bunch of BS???

I just went on Ticketmaster and the best available for two seats was in the 300's. What's the best way to try and get lower level tix? Any singles looking to sit next to a fellow fan?

Well said. The maroon and gold squad are an extremely far cry from a sham. The Sioux have to follow the the old cliche "one game at a time." Also, remember what the Gophs did to our MVP goaltender 3 out of the four games? They need to keep their focus and stay humble, which I would imagine Hak will do.

Game over. Sioux WIN!!!!!!!!!

Are you kiddin' me. Yes, I've been looking around on CSTC and FCS during FSN commercials. It keeps me from thinking about going to the bathroom.

This has not been a Sioux hockey period for sure. If you want to see a contrast to the Final Five, flip over to FCS Atlantic - NMU And Miami - there's nobody there. Northern MI up 2-1 with 12:00 in the 2nd.

Sioux on the PP to start the 3rd. I must take the blame for Sconny's third goal. I went up to relieve myself for the first time since Sconny scored their 2nd. Oh boy.

GOOOOAAAALLLLL 4-2 SIOUX. Must . . . . keep . . . drinking . . .

Tripping . . . what tripping

Wow did Chorney get hit. I think Wooger's had a few more beverages than I. Bucky on the PP - Jones interference.

Sounds like Jordan took over for Zach in net. PP for Sioux!

I swear Earl's been skating for Bucky for seven years . . . good back-n-forth hockey action going on for those at work.

All right. I'll bear down and keep pulling - for the team's sake
