    Do these schools just not care at all about the quality of the video they put out? Ridiculous. 

    NCHC really needs to put some standards around this.  It’s pathetic how poor some of these productions are.  I thought the NCHC was supposed to be a premier conference.

    xG is an analytic which is a "coulda, shoulda, woulda".....it is not real. 13-4 record today based on xG per Schloss is not real. It is a unicorn wish.

    So is the entire Pairwise Ranking system.  The algorithm takes two teams that possibly haven't ever played and determines which one is better based on a bunch of metrics and some made up numbers.  That's the same thing as xG.  It's using other statistics to make a prediction on performance.  

    Now if somebody suggests anybody hang a banner because "xG said we really had the best record this year", then those people should be locked in a padded room.

    How hard is it to change a call signal? 

     

    Few organizations work slower than the FAA, so there is that.  

    The main thing is, it's not just a matter of telling everybody to use a different call sign and being done with it.  It's not just the controllers in Grand Forks that need to know about it.  It's literally every controller across the entire National Airspace System.  UND planes fly everywhere so all controllers nationwide need to recognize what "Sioux 32" means, for example.

    If either of the hosts reads this, please put a timestamp link in the episode description for the interview start time. Most listeners aren't tuning in to hear what you do with your weekends.

    Think you're wrong on that, those bits are gold and generate exactly what the "podcast" crowd wants IMO.

    I've always found this type of thing difficult with podcasts.  When you first start listening to a podcast you don't know the hosts, the inside jokes, or any of that.  So all the off-topic banter seems like a waste of time and you just want to get to the on-topic stuff that you came for.  Once you're a dedicated listener then you start "getting" the humor in off-topic stuff.  Sometimes it does make it hard to get into a new podcast.

    28 runs in those six wins. Keep that up, plus get Correa, Polanco, and Sano hitting, and things could get really fun!

    I feel like this is a familiar refrain, so I'm really trying hard to not get my hopes too high.
