  1. Unrequited rivalry has to hurt.
  2. Plus not many Denver fans have extra long forearms and thick, sloping foreheads.
  3. Yup. Or let them walk away with your house and life savings.
  4. Dang right! My daddy regularly beat my mother, oftentimes near to death. But he’d beat yall to death for certain if you said she wore army boots. Maybe even if you just looked like you was about to say such a thing. “We hold these truths to be self evident: ‘Imma kick your azz.’”
  5. We must rescue them from their ignorance!
  6. Huh (and I say this with all due respect), my take is that not walking away is a sign you’re easily manipulated by morons, not something smart people allow to happen. Now, if the moron presents a risk of physical harm to your family or others, that’s a whole different matter, morally, ethically, and as a matter of law.

    Last night was a legit loss but not a particularly hurtful one. They’ll stay focused, I think. They haven’t done well 3x3, but have shown their mettle tying up games late in the 3rd when they had to. As someone said above, they won’t see 3x3 in the NCAAs.

    Would work for me.
  9. Anyone here seen the video? Since they’ve dropped the felony charge, it’s possible that the DA decided, after reading interviews and watching video, that the victim/complainant (and possibly witnesses) just does not invite any sympathy and is therefore a real problem with most juries. To DAs, having technical proof of the elements of the crime is only part of the story: they have to get all the jurors to want to convict. A victim who comes across as an asshole can put a case down in a hurry. Same is true in civil cases with the Parties and their primary witnesses—maybe a little less so with only 5/6 jury verdict.

    I don’t think UMD needs to steal to get a point or two. Wouldn’t be surprised to see them get 3.
  11. A friend of mine was a two- time all American linebacker known for his intensity on the field. He shared how common it was in bars, weight rooms, etc., for guys wanting to mess it up with him—pure testosterone behavior. That doesn’t excuse violent behavior, but I’m guessing well known male athletes have to deal with stupid alpha dog behaviors a lot.

    Thankfully, only Sioux fans count.

    You’re universally loved for all your archived games alone!

    We’re grown adults with professions, families, and civic responsibilities spending what could be fairly described as an excessive amount of time on social media talking about a game played by college kids, most of whom are strangers to us. What ISN’T odd about that?
  15. I’ve never known a truly good hockey coach who used profanity.
  16. As long as they can hang on to a 1-seed in the NCAAs, what they do at the conference level seems pretty unimportant to me, except as it relates to team (especially goalie) confidence.
  17. It will be a pleasure to see our two Victoria guys team up on a goal like their game winner that got so much play last year.
  18. Too soon. 😞
  19. Good for him. Not many coaches get unlimited extensions. He’s like a Supreme Court Justice now.
  20. And he seems to be learning without becoming timid on the ice. Another sign he’s mature beyond his years.
  21. Yeah, he’s been a gift there too
  22. Not completely convinced on the big faceoff part.
  23. I think Powers deserves just a little slack. His days there may be limited, but he did coach them up from club status, I believe. That said, it’s always fair to go after the coach on the other bench.
  24. Me too. Still, BU and BC may be down in the rankings, but they are both still venomous snakes. Gophs are a garter snake.
