  1. That is the one plus side of all this...their farm system is loaded. Now if they could just trade that Mauer guy...
  2. I guess if you consider raising taxes thru the roof to "improve" the financial situation a positive thing, you're correct.
  3. Hey, NDSU did it first! Those University of Texas rip-off b*st*rds!
  4. It took me a while to figure out who "THAT" prospect is... http://www.sbncollegehockey.com/ecac/2014/1/29/5220008/eye-on-the-future-philadelphia-flyers-prospect-shayne-gostisbehere
  5. Oh, is that how it's supposed to work? Former Sioux get a free pass while former Gophers get ridiculed, no matter what the argument?
  6. You see, YaneA, we were poking fun at JohnboyND7 for being a Gopher "fan" but apparently not knowing the difference between "sky" and "ski" in the fight song. I was trying to be additionally amusing by using a popular saying in Kansas basketball, "rock...chalk...Jayhawk" and instead substituted "Gophers" for "Jayhawks". I apologize for losing you...
  7. And if Kessel had been a Sioux player and Parise been a Gopher, fans here would defend Phil and blast Zach.
  8. I hear their new ad campaign on the radio all the time...the little Irish jig about "we're bringin' in the closer" and his name is Glen Perkins. I guess my big question is...when do you think you're going to be bringing him in? Mop-up duty in the 8th with the opposing team up by 7 runs?
  9. Never gets old, does it, gfhockey? Let's compare our 12:04 pm blood alcohol levels...although my gut tells me I'll be 0-2 if we do that in addition to W-2's.
  10. One and done? I didn't know that. What's the scoop?
  11. Warroad is no better than STA in terms of sand-bagging in A. State A tournament appearances: 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 2000, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 Wasn't the idea of the two-class system supposed to be giving more schools the opportunity to play in the state hockey tournament? As gfhockey would say... How long wil warrod acept mediokrity? fire steve haateja?
  12. Wait a second...so the school that continues to play in A hockey so they can dominate that level rather than risk being eliminated earlier in AA, the same school that continues to play Roseau, Moorhead, and other big-wigs of Class AA so they can play "better competition," is the same school that DOESN'T recruit kids?
  13. Edina students lobbed a "public school" chant at the Holy Angels students a few years ago (Danny Mattson's last game as a Star) at the Hornets/Stars game at Bloomington Ice Gardens. I just about died laughing at the irony of the #1 cake-eating school in the state taunting someone else. As gfhockey would say: "bullies!"
  14. That's the problem of new stadiums...they sell themselves for a few years regardless of the product that's on the field. The honeymoon's just about over for Target Field and the Twins though. Problem is, around the time that they're forced to actually get some players (or risk have Targe Field look as vacant as Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City on game-day), the new Vikings stadium will open and allow another Minnesota sports team to totally suck while its fans bask in the glow of new stadium-ness.
  15. I had heard that Minnetonka wasn't going to be outdone by Hopkins...had no idea it was THAT bad. Yikes. I coached a kid playing 10 year old baseball in Bloomington a couple of years ago...the next season, I saw him playing on the posh west-side traveling team. He wasn't recruited but his sister was - so she could play basketball...in the Jaguar program...at 12 years old. Unbelievable.
  16. Love ya blue! Rest in peace, Bum Phillips. Houston Texans...not the same.
  17. I'd be curious to see the Edmonton Oilers logo in UND colors...anyone?
