Good stuff. But Ruth Chris? The food scene up there's gotta be better that that. No offense to Ruth Chris.

I talked to a football parent last night who said that his understanding was that Murray would be good to go this fall, so I'm not sure what to believe right now. We'll find out soon I guess.

Ah yes, the most popular used car in automotive history!! The gas cap was in the fin, causing heartburn for many a gas station attendant when they first came out.

Thanks for the post, that boils it down quite clearly. I don't know all the legal ins and outs, but a swing of 1,000 votes from the morning after the election to what was certified seems like an awful lot, maybe unprecedented in election history.

Say the minimum wage gets jacked up another couple bucks an hour. You're sure Wendy's can't jack up the price of those burgers? The competition is subject to the same constraints. Nobody raises their prices, none of it's passed on to the consumer? In this analogy, both Wendy's and Burger King either pass costs along or sustain economic losses and ultimately go out of business.

What an embarassment. Votes found in trunks of cars in the Iron Range and what not. Back on topic, I don't think the Franken situation changes the fact that the House version of this bill is dead on arrival on July 6.

Whoa whoa whoa. When did this come about?

Senator DeMint also said this morning that the bill in its current form is DOA when they get back from break, but something very likely will get passed and then it goes to conference committee, where the Dems are completely running the show right now of course...so there is still cause for a lot of concern. Fox was the only outlet that I saw covering the EPA report story...there's a shocker for ya. True journalism in this country is pretty much dead, but that's a whole other topic in and of itself.

Looks like about a '59 Dodge.

The topic has huge ramifications on the energy industry in North Dakota and is a valid topic of conversation in the Community forum , IMO. And the beauty of it is that you can continue to get Fighting Sioux coverage in the sports forums without having to click the mouse button on Cap and Trade.

That is incorrect. The CCHA uses rivalry pairings, and the clusters are created each season by putting two pairings together across three clusters. The clustering rotates every year creating a five-year cycle. I hope that was clearer than mud.

The net result of it will be that rivals will be travelling to your rink 3 out of every 5 years, instead of 3 out of 4. But it's what needed to be done to prevent further contraction of college hockey.

It passed 219-212.

Will be interesting for the Wild to see if Little Fletcher wheels and deals tonight.

Boehner is about half way through reading the 300 page amendment....and he's got unlimited floor time. This could be a late one.

I would love to see them switch it up as well, the St.Paul scene is growing very stale IMO. But realistically I think the tournament is locked down in St.Paul for a long time.

This song meant is was a fall Monday night, and time for Dale McCabe and Jerry Olson to hash over some Sioux football for the next half hour.

Parise named to All-Star Team

Datsyuk over Parise, St.Louis for Lady Byng.

They built it....be we own it.

You have nothing credible to add to this conversation, so run along.

From reading that link it sounds like they do.

I think the clusters would change every year. Here's how I think the pairs will shake out...it's worth what you paid for it. UND-BSU UM-UW DU-CC UNO-UAA MTU-UMD SCSU-MSUM I'm speculating on the UNO-UAA pairing based on the fact that they are paired with UAF currently, so they are prepared to handle it from a travel spend run-rate perspective.

Here is what I think we're in for, which is placing rivalry pairs into clusters and probably rotating them every so often. http://www.puckhead.lunarpages.com/Hockey2...ClusterInfo.htm
