Congrats to Bob Daniels and the Ferris State Bulldogs!

I'm disappointed myself - disappointment is part of the game. Just like the highs of 2010, 2011, and 2012 are on the flip side of the coin.

Boston College and Providence College aren't playing today either - they must both be one-and-done teams next weekend too.

BTW, Jossie and Tom wanted me to pass along their thanks to those who attended today. Jossie said that our group is always fun to have in the bar and that they look forward to this every March. Please let me know how your food and service was - they do appreciate feedback, both good and bad. Thank you!

May as well post this yet again today...

Actually, I checked into it and there indeed IS an asterisk on the '83 Badgers national championship banner.

Your game-weekend experience would have been far less disappointing had some of you ventured out to the Hoggsbreath this morning...

Because the #1 overall seed always has good luck in the tournament, right?

R-E-L-A-X. Relax.

How's the atmosphere at Target Center this afternoon?

As Supreme Executive Commander and Overlord of the SiouxSports.com brunch, I took the GPL inclusion vote under advisement and vetoed it. Thanks to our guests Greyeagle and YoungEagle for stepping into the lion's den and joining us. It was nice to meet you both and I hope you come back again next year. Oxbow6, Siouxman and Mrs Siouxman, Wilbur, Goon, fightingsioux4life, Godsmack, SIoux Fan in Sioux Falls...anyone else I missed...great to see you all and in some cases, meet you. I hope everyone had a great time and will come back next year!

Congtatulations to the "son of sprig" on winning the bean bag board raffle! He was one of several fans who registered today at the Hoggsbreath. A nice surprise to bring home! Pretty popular item - I may consider doing another one if there is enough interest. Thank you to everyone who entered - and for those who haven't paid yet, please do so. Thank you in advance!

MANKATO? He sent me a text a few minutes ago asking me if the Hogg was located anywhere near Wisconsin Dells!

OOOOOHHHHHHHHHH YEAAA! It's FINALLY here! Get to the Hoggsbreath! 2504 Rice Street in St Paul (texhnically Little Canada with Roseville on the other side of the street, but let's not get bogged down in semantics)...JUST GET THERE!

Can't even believe that the officials counted that. Clearly angled his skate perfectly for the deflection into the next.

I'll see a good chunk of you folks later this morning at the Hoggsbreath...some of you others in red, please pay up. The drawing will be held at 12 noon and the winner will be contacted by PM shortly after that. Please watch your PM's and this thread around lunchtime on Saturday. Thank you!

Get some sleep, Hoggers!

I got to watch back-to-back-to-back WCHA playoff titles in 2010, 2011, and 2012. Probably long overdue for some conference tournament disappointment.

I'm sure the guys wearing actual jerseys on the ice wanted that as well.

Wow is Lowell vs Providence a thing of beauty. What a game!

And, yes, I am STILL accepting entries!

Thank you to everyone who has paid so far. Please remember to put your moniker in the comments/notes so I know who it belongs to on the board. Thank you!
