SOCCER? I thought this was the non-collegiate SPORTS forum.

Wait, I have that wrong. Christopher Columbus brought genocide to the New World and it was the natives who wrote "The Minnesota Rouser" to scare him into sending the boats back to Spain. I apologize for the error and hope that I did not offend anyone with my post.

But this is where the gophers would squeal "SKI-U" after a goal, right? And then in 1492, Christopher Columbus wrote "The Minnesota Rouser" and added "SKI-U-MAH" to the song. Or was it "ROW THE BOAT?"

I finally got the joke...by the 2022 Olympics, ha ha.

By Christmas!

Order goes in this week - picked up a straggler from GPL this afternoon for the white version.

Just in case you forgot how cool the fleece hats were...

So I invested in a fleece face shield last November for the upcoming cold winter and it turned out to be the best $20 or so that I spent in 2016! And it got me thinking...I sure could use a custom fleece face shield to go with my snazzy SiouxSports.com fleece hat from a few years ago! If you're interested, post here and we'll take it to group PM. I would probably need 25 or so takers to make this happen, but it'll be cool. Trust me...you won't wanna miss out on this one.

I've always been told by locals that University of Minnesota students playing a game on Lake Nokomis invented the hockey puck in the 1300's...

Well that's just down the road in South Dakota! SWEET!

That doesn't take away anything from him being a problem, oh, essentially the other 99.9% of the time on the job.

RIGHT! I used to be on USCHO all the time. Now whenever I click on the app, it's like accidentally tapping into a p*rn site while at my desk at work - gotta exit as fast as I can and hope no self-respecting person saw me!

Redwing77...PCM...I remember those days...

5-3 so far with a win over UNH, who has been on fire so far this season.

The X, the X...as in WCHA Final Five! Pay attention!

So YOU'RE the token CC fan who made it to the X every spring! Who's the DU guy who also tags along?

Can Beery get the boys uup for big gamez? Semple Questone.

The guy was wearing a Holy Cross jersey and yelling non-stop about the Gophers losing to them. I wanna say this was circa 2009 or 2010. The mom sprinting down the steps to come to bat for her sloppy-drunk adult son was priceless.

So when one Gopher flops on the ice, is he embarrassing himself or his whole team? How about one Sioux player dragging an opposing player out if the handshake like to tango? A negative reflection on only him or his whole team? A number of years ago at the Final Five, I sat in the same section as a drunk, obnoxious, potty-mouthed UND fan. After this bozo dropped a stream of f-bombs as a young kid walked by, I walked down to his seat and told him that he was embarrassing every Sioux fan within earshot. This 20something adult's mommy came sprinting down the steps to tell me to leave her son alone and joined in swearing at me. Security finally made its way down to chat with the drunken duo and as I walked back to my seat, I was applauded by the fans in the section. So, I guess we agree to disagree on the effects a single fan or group of fans can have on the whole group.

Common tradition in the last 20 years, maybe. The student section never yelled stuff like that when I was in school. And, yes, it is embarrassing.

When Dan was born, the doctor turned to his mother and father and said, "I'm sorry...we did everything we could...but he still pulled thru!" (Thanks, Rodney Dangerfield!)

Guys, he wants to be known as kevad now. Let's respect that.

Hold my beer...I'll be right back!
