Who has the best record starting gameday threads? Seems to me yours has been pretty good, Wilbur.

Cripes. Hate to see what Sioux fans would do if things were going as badly in GF as they are in Daloot. They can't beat anybody better than Northern or Bemidji and they play dirty to boot. Their coaches must have tenure.

Humbling when the best you (meaning I) have to offer is batshit.

I usually think of "bad shift" as one where the other team maintains possession in our zone for an extended time, not a shift where a shot from the point is screened and/or tipped. Two of those long shots came after very short possession. You like to see more of them blocked, though.

Hard for the goalie to stop some of those tipped and screened shots. Need to block more of them.

Then I suggest you do whatever she says.

You gotta be ready to come out hard, though, or the Berry apologists will just give him another chance on Saturday.

Pyker.

Agree that these four games are important to win, but I wouldn't mind seeing them get schooled at least one game in Denver. Give them something to learn from and a nasty taste in their mouths.

I'm sure other schools' fans say the same about the Pepper at times.

Somebody got dangerously close to lutefisk for that pic.

Jeff Sauer brought CC to town for that series if I recall.

No doubt. Playing a full 20-30 should be enough. Save it for the tourney. Why not default on a few in Feb-March and let the boys unwind in Cancun during spring break. Piss in some elevators. Use it as a recruiting pitch.

As it should be. Fortunately, this team has banked some very good pairwise points. They have to keep winning, obviously, since loses against pairwise-poor teams are costly.

So many factors affect early season performance. I'd like to think Michigan is a 500 team, but by March they will probably be winning a lot of games.

In June, didn't most fans here predict that UND would be ranked #2 after the toughest part of the schedule?

A little mixing of criminal and tort concepts there. Assumption of risk is a tort concept. But your observations are good ones, since there could be both civil and criminal cases--civil more likely than criminal, I would guess, though I know zero about UK tort law.

It is. I think many of us remember those fast, dynamic CC teams that could beat you but were fun to watch

Probably, though the concept is a basic one: A conviction (or finding of liability) should be based on the facts of the present case, not character as evidenced by prior acts.

Yup. The exceptions. They are narrowly applied, though.

Rules of evidence typically bar evidence of prior conduct (bad acts) to show they acted in conformity at the time of the alleged offense. There are exceptions, but the answer is probably "no."

Will we see the Return of the Dickie?

Uncivilized.

Just like the NCAA tourney: Stayin' alive, Stayin' alive Ah ha ha ha

Truth is, under all that fluff we suck. Haven't played a full 60 since '87. Music sucks these days too. Miss the Bee Gees.
