Nope...he's just here to provoke...

Per Dave K, a shootout should be in order to take care of the tie.

Sounds like paint drying to me...

UMD wins 1-0

Agreed. I'm fine with a tie; it beats the free throw contest at the end of the game. Ridiculous.

So you're saying we're special?

You nailed it.

Yes, but that would be hostile.

Why do they care so much?

That's nit-picking now, isn't it?

How so?

Sock puppets?

Maybe he's taking a vacation.

No way...Giants have looked every bit as good as KC. Hopefully we get a hard fought, seven-game serIes. If I had to pick one team to win in 4, it would be the Giants.

Why would you mention this?

Maybe Mido should figure out a way to get the non-CBS games on a pay-per-view platform via Dish/DirecTv/Comcast so the games could be viewed outside their normal broadcast area. Time to put on the big boy pants and start thinking big picture! . How many season subscriptions would they need to make it worth their while? I have to think people would be more interested in this than paying for a webcast package that's been iffy at best.

What is the Root Sports agreement? Is that just for football?

The GOBC has some nice seats right next to the shitter.

NHL is doing away with the shootout...the new method of determining the winner after OT will be the team that can make the most tape to tape passes in 30 seconds.

THIS^^^

Fighting Sioux Sports Network was not only picked up by Fox College Sports, but it was available FTA (free to air) as well.

THIS^^. Why would Midco pay UND for the games, then turn around and let their competitors show the same games for free on another channel? Too bad that they won't allow the games to be shown on FCS outside their coverage area, there's a LOT of Sioux fans that don't live in the Grand Forks/Fargo area.

Probably true, but once again Sioux fans outside the Midco footprint get the short end of the stick.

Agreed.

Per today's Online Chat, Schlossman stated that Midco is responsible for the holdup in broadcasting the men's games on Fox College Sports. He said this was due in part to the fact that people in Fargo who have CableOne, a competitor of Midco's, could watch the games on FCS. (thereby, not needing to switch cable providers in order to see the Sioux games) It's great for UND that they have a regional deal with Midco, but for those many fans outside the Midco footprint, it's just more home games not available via TV.
