  1. I know this is supposed to be just about a "fantasy line," but . . .

    If you have more than one line, you should pair the pure scorers with great set-up guys. For example, G Johnson/Dixon Ward; Hrkac/Joyce; Parise/Bo; Toews/Ohsie. Blake and Panzer need to be there too, not necessarily together. The PP needs Roche paired with a stay-at-home guy like D Hale. Hard choice between the Eagle and Karl in net. I would let a younger Gino coach them. Put them in the old Ralph and pit them against a team with a rodent mascot (red or gold), and let some of the old-timers like Farce P smuggle the dead animals in. Bring back Frenchy's for the pregame. Would make for a fun evening.

  2. What happened to their other brother Daryl?

    I don't know--and I heard he was the best of the three. I guess he wasn't comfortable with going to college, where he would have to talk.

  3. Lines for next year?

    There'll be a thin red one with a net sitting on it.

    Next there'll be a wide blue one,

    Then a wide, dashed, red one,

    Then another wide blue one, and finally

    Another narrow red one with the other net on it.

    That's all I'm willing to prognosticate at this point.

    And there are those that could make the line list if they would just straighten up and quit running around in circles.

  4. Speaking of logo, and I apologize if this has been discussed at length on a nearby thread, but what is the status of the logo/name litigation? I thought the final hearing was scheduled for April.

    I have the feeling this is a real dumb question . . . .

  5. Well go ahead and make up your own story, junior. It's what you do best. :D:lol:

    PCM, stay out of this and get back to your summary. Your past excellence has made us an impatient lot.

  6. I know people who were there, and this is how it went:

    Oshie, Toews, Bina and others go into Judy's under cover of darkness. A shadowy figure slips through the door behind them and moves unobserved to a booth on the far side of the room--about six feet away. This person, a gopher fan whose name rhymes with "Slappy," cannot take his eyes off Toews and Oshie and begins make soft gurgling sounds while drooling into his Dr. Pepper. Thinking nobody else would possibly think to take their eyes off the three Sioux studs, he slips on his "Mr. Briggs Junior Goalie Glove" and commences to do nasty things into it, ala Portnoy's Complaint. Unfortunately, members of the Red River JV hockey team are also there, including the goalie, who, unaware that something disgusting is going on, comments on the glove and asks to try it on. Our gopher fanatic, thinking the Red River goalie is probably an undercover news reporter, panics. Realizing that diversion is his only chance, he jumps up, points at Toews, shouts, "UNDERAGE CANADIAN!!" and bolts out the door.

    That, at least, is what I heard.

  7. Nope, you're not sounding preachy......

    The majority of people that drink and drive think that getting a DUI is the worst consequence. There are far more serious consequences of what drinking and driving can do to someone.....I've seen it.

    Statistics show that the average person arrested for DUI has committed that offense 78 times before they are actually arrested.

    And many more, if you count those they couldn't remember.

  8. I put money on it that he only serves a weekend...or in jail terms, 3 days.

    There is a little pressure on the DA and judge on this one. The offense which will probably lead to revocation of probation is, indirectly, alcohol related, and the original offense was a DUI. I don't know about GF County, but courts are taking a pretty stern view of alcohol related offenses, and they can't be seen as pulling any punches due to his status. I hope his punishment is quick and fair so Robbie can move on, lesson learned.

  9. Bina will get something from the DA, but if the little we hear so far is accurate, I it will probably be light--less than 10. BUT, whatever the punishment is, it should be no more or no less severe than a regular schmuck in that situation would get.
