    FINAL 5

    NDH, Oh for please ....UND is NOT the most storied program in all of college hockey...it is ONE of the most storied along with several others, but to say it is the most storied is as ridiculus as some of TC's comments! Deal with it, UND is not the only program in college hockey, that is the Gopher's fans perspective!
  8. Where's Pittis (person looking under bench) WPoS
  9. Sad to say I agree that the perms were NOT a good idea. They deserve to be mocked for such a stupid plan! WPoS
  10. as of right now they have no idea WHERE to have the cup. No offense fellas, but if UND drops a few eggs, they would have to rush it over to UW to give to the Dogs. Presentation of the cup will wait till there is a clear winner, i.e.; Dogs drop Friday and UND wins Friday. WPoS
  11. all you nancy boys can quit whinning, the Gophs will be there (my arrogance of being a Gopher fan). Geeze this board is talking about Gopher hockey more than POI! A Sicatoka said, nothing is perfect, but this is a ton better than what there used to be. Will they continue to improve ranking systems and such? Yes. Will they have to give the WCHA teams a "odd league in" negative score so other leagues will be represented....YES! WPoS
  12. still a pit! obstructed views with the stupid nets and HUGE cables hangigng down.... WPoS
  13. what the heck you smokin'? That place is a PIT! Pass me the bowl! WPOS
  14. "ofers"...no that is reserved for JBSU, the GOPHERS have 5 (yes less than 7) titles....saying ofers like that is just plain silly. Get team's alternate monikers right! No bandwagoning here. I still have faith someplace left! One never knows! Congrats on a good series at tUMD. UND is looking good right now. WPoS
  15. Got my tickets for ALL the games..gonna watch some good hockey! WPoS
  16. congrats to your squad guys, sounds like they really took it to tDogz. I'm pulling for a tie tonight for you two, just to prolong the agony! AS my guys, I think the perm has hurt more than helped! If they don't start playing soon, we won't get to square off again in the Final Five! WPoS
  17. sounds like he is on the side of the students...only thing in the article that I disagree with is that the majority of Gopher students don't add the sucks shnit at teh end. Eh...sounds liek you hace an AD with an axe to grind... WPoS
  18. tDogs need to night, can they do it? WPoS
  19. personally, after last night I think they should ditch the perms! WPoS
  20. WPoS

    Trifecta

    Marty, my respect for you has gone up! Not many Sioux fans have the cajones to say things like that! WPoS

    I'll wait to try and make ANY post regarding a three-peat untill I see the boys in the Champ game this year...I'm not THAT arrogant! WPoS
  22. no, but what I am trying to say is this: money talks and if people with big money make comments (and contributions) to a program they will get listend too more so than average joe hockey fan that drives a '93 Sunbird. What I have noticed at Mariucci since the first season is that the students are less cohesive and are "controlled" more so than in the old arena. Mostly IMO because the people that sit in the "M"'s don't like to hear stuff. Now about the worst cheer we have is the WPoS chant for penalties. That worst word being "!@$!". Now a few years back the band was banned from doing the drum line that leads up to that because the corpies (fans and sponsors) didn't like that word. So they controlled the band and thus TRIED to control the student sections. Thankfully we continued anyway and that old tradition didn't go the way of the do-do. What I see is the money talking and takign the fun out of being exhuberant in the student section. That can include trying to control cheers (dropping f-bombs and such isn't cool), and generally trying to make it as PC as possible. What do you think most taunts are for? They are to demoralize/anger the opponent/fire up the team! Money will and can control that part of the fan base, more so than one would think. As for subtracting noise, well when the majority of the fans are NOT students it sure can kill the noise level if they do NOT participate (even in "clean" chants/cheers). And thus kills the cheer/chant (kinda a subtraction, or maybe a fun vacuum?). WPoS
