Shawn-O

I resemble that remark!! Nice to meet both of you at the tailgate!

Yes, I was experiencing the "shakes" for an hour or two.

Easier to park in the residential neighborhood on the other side of Columbia Road anyway. It's a faster out after the games.

There is...just...one...more thing.... GO SIOUX!!!!

RISE AND SHINE, SIOUX FANS!!! Today's the day we get to road trip it to REA. I'm like a kid on Christmas freaking morning right now. Left turn at County Road 30, right turn at I-94, catch the Dubay and Tim Hennessy radio progrum from the Long Haul, fire up the hair band music on the I-pod....roll into GF for a couple three four pregame cocktails, and it's off to the Ralph for a great night of hockey....and a couple three four post-game cocktails. See you all up there!!!

We saw Hak speak at the Gopher Blueline Lunch. He has developed a very polished approach in the P.R. department since taking the helm.

For the record, it was Danny Irmen. Interesting, the Chorney jersey pop has surfaced on two or three FSN montages that I've seen, while Irmen's has been buried in the archives. Not a big deal at all, just an observation.

Tassel's was a blast while it lasted, good bang (no pun intended) for the buck. We had a crew there a few seasons ago after a game. One dancer had the "naughty librarian" motif going.....OUTSTANDING! Anyhoo, look forward to seeing everyone at the games this weekend, should be a great time!

While we're at it, I'd like to change my moniker to Shawn-O. Thanks, Jim!

I'll be there too.

Sioux weathering the storm......Parise keeping them in the game.

Sioux getting a lot of "puck luck" thus far.

Sioux giving up some quality chances. C'mon guys!

Yes, we are in for the Blue Line bean feed.

I've wondered about that. Anyone know what the deal is with #12? Hey, it's May, and it's another piece of trivia to discuss....cut me some slack.

I like the Sioux's chances in Moy's brackets better than mine, but I just don't see them shipping Michigan out east. I hope I'm wrong.

Robbie: Best wishes on a speedy and full recovery.

The Sioux are a lock for Worcester versus BU. Michigan stays in Grand Rapids. The real crapshoot is Ohio St, Wisconsin, and Harvard on the 3-line. Here's guessing that attendance considerations win the day, and they put the Badgers in Grand Rapids, ship Ohio State to Minneapolis, and put Harvard out in Amherst. Putting Wisco in Mariucci makes for a great storyline, but it leaves serious attendance issues in GR should the Wolverines falter. Also, a UNH-Harvard first round matchup assures an eastern team in the final in Amherst. Predictions: Minneapolis: MN-Maine, Cornell-Ohio St Grand Rapids: DU-Colgate, Michigan-Wisconsin Amherst: CC-Bemidji, New Hampshire-Harvard Worcester: BC-Mercyworst, Sioux-Boston U

As much as I'd like to see that, I doubt Matt will be back next year.

This just in from the NDSU computer science department.

That is a brutal bracket if that's the way it would play out (which it won't).

Here is the new hangout. Be kind, Jupiter seems like a nice enough sort.

I'll offer up a tip of the cap to the guys that ran POI. However, the last year or two it turned into a little private chat room for a dozen posters or so. If you weren't in the circle and had the audacity to post anything other but duckies and bunnies content where the Goofs were concerned, you would get ignored, or a smarmy, arrogant little jab.
