Big A HG

We have Blood, now bring in the Butcher.

Where in Wisconsin are you at?

If I was still at UND, I'd most definitely put together the latest list, but unfortunately I don't get the opportunity to know what it is. I still listen to the playlist from a few years ago regularly.

If they think this will make college kids safer, ha. If it was me and my buddies in college and this law was already enacted, we would get twice as drunk before-hand to hold us over for the whole game (plus sneaking more booze in...not like it's hard). Instead, we'd get moderately toasty, go have a pre-game big Fat Tire, and call it good for the rest of the game. So, what option is better? Getting more drunk before hand and sneaking in liquor anyways (which makes things even worse because liquor, of course, gets you drunk faster)? Or, keeping things the way they are where very few problems occur the way it is?

I wish I could be there to bid on the Duncan. Too bad it's autographed though...I hate auto'd jerseys.

I think the Sioux literally broke Kangas a couple years ago when we crushed him at The Ralph. He's never been the same since.

Frats is closing the gap on the leading candidates (looking at Camper specifically), especially if hs goal pace continues. He'll need some helpers on other goals just to pad is point amount, but the dude can seriously score. I think if Matt can get to the 45 point mark, and then have nearly 30 goals in the process, he will be a top candidate for sure. The problem is, Matt's assist count is relatively low for some of the top point getters out there.

Would definitely go just to check out the medals if I was in town. I always thought the HHH commercial was creepy when I heard it on the radio a couple years ago, though.

Oh, and this:

I love when the Gophs come to town...the freshman get to see the pinnacle of what it means to be a Sioux hockey player. The Ralph is rocking, the adrenaline is pumping, and hopefully the beatdown follows.

Robert Morris isn't in CHA anymore.

Here is another example of a shirt being called a "Mascot Tee". This Florida State Seminoles shirt is an "adidas Florida State Seminoles Super Soft Vintage Mascot T-Shirt", and it doesn't even have any person/animal reference, just their "FS" logo. All it is, and it's the same story with the Sioux one, is a name for the model of the shirt. http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4016877 Also, the debate over the term mascot that has occurred on and off over the last couple years on here should be settled by the definition. The definition of the term "mascot" is: an animal, person, or thing adopted by a group as its representative symbol and supposed to bring good luck. -Random House Dictionary, found on dictionary.com A logo, as seen on the shirt, is a "thing", as described in the definition, and easily fits in line with the term "mascot".

I just watched NHL Overtime on Versus, and one guy on their ripped Zajac's play pretty bad...on the defensive side. He basically said he's sucked. I peeked at the team's +/-, and Zajac is at a sub-par -9, but that is FAR from worst on the team. Other forwards like Kovalchuk are as bad as -30. Sounded pretty unfair, especially considering that Zajac seemed to be a guy who earned his way into the lineup each night for not only a solid offensive game, but a good defensive game as well. It has to be hard to put in your full effort nightly at this point if you are a New Jersey Devil. They've, as a team, been brutal (injuries aside).

I'm 99% sure that's the name of the shirt style from the company. Just like this shirt isn't literally a "Shootout", although that's the model name of this shirt from Reebok: They likely mass produce generic logo'd shirts for a ton of universities depicting the primary logo.

We have a winner. No one took the bait though.

I'm about 95% sure that the Vikings won't win a game the entire rest of 2011.

Toews is the 2nd leading vote getter for the All-Star game this year, behind some other no-name Canadian. Possible captain?

I like the guy's thinking with the Sioux, but I have to say he seems way off base with most of his other picks. Heck, most of his other predictions are very generic and trendy.

Why is it that you and USCHO seem to have varying PWR Standings?

Toews returned to action tonight and had a nice night....featuring a [ugly] goal (game-winner) and an assist. He played against Matt Greene, who (like usual) didn't put up any points (nor penalty minutes )

As long as you can still cook and clean, I'm sure your husband will be very understanding of your unfortunate situation. All kidding aside, I hope it heals quick for ya. I can't imagine how painful it is.

What are your dimensions? What's funny is the Widescreen version still isn't wide enough for my own computer. Sometimes I make a quick one up that fits my needs, sometimes I don't. This month I just made sure my background was black and did the regular widescreen one and it works decent for what it is. Maybe next month I'll make a wider widescreen. Anyone else having sizing issues?

The fake sneak wasn't a bad call, it was just poorly executed. Jackson would have walked into the end zone if he would have had a ball he could catch clean. Doesn't matter anymore in hindsight, but you're right, it could have been a tough play to swallow had they lost. I think the play call before that was dumber. They just completely loaded up the center of the field the play the handed it to Kuhn. This also means that the Bears loaded up the box. It's just too many bodies, in my opinion, and doesn't create any opportunities for the runner to find a hole, even if the blocking is decent.

NFC North Final Standings: 1) Chicago 2) Green Bay 3) Detroit 4) Minnesota Wasn't the way I hoped the regular season would turn out for my Packers, but they're in the playoffs, so that means there's a chance. Gophers hockey fell from its high horse...as did the Vikings. Twins next?

Dustin Byfuglien: 42 Games Played.....16 goals, 25 assists for 41 pts.....as a defenseman. I don't think anyone expected offensive numbers quite THAT good for Big Buff after moving to Atlanta, even if he would have stayed at forward.
