I think you mean Super Bowl, but either way, theoretically impossible because both are NFC teams. BTW, the NFL can stop glorifying division champions any day now. Zero reason why an 8-7-1 Green Bay team should be hosting the 12-4 49'ers.

Gee, homer, here's one from you!

Several did. Go see the Bowling Green thread.

I think my bad luck curse of '98 was reversed in double in '06 as I was in attendance for the HC/Minnesota and Michigan/North Dakota games. Wilbur's safe. советский хоккей!

Not a big loss in the great scheme of things to some folks here...we beat NDSU and that's all that matters anyways, right?

I wouldn't care if Russia threw the 1980 Soviet team out onto the ice this weekend...ANYONE BUT CANADA!

Wow did Canada get a break by the ref swallowing his whistle on the breakaway that was stopped by the Swiss goalie. I'm not sure how much longer he needs to hold the puck to get the play stopped. Wow.

Sweden taking Slovakia out behind the woodshed so far...4-0 late in the 2nd.

Yikes...I sure hope that isn't the case.

Why did they announce Team USA after yesterday's Winter Classic game? Weird. I stand by my original assessment of the jerseys...sublimated stars and fake sublimated figure eight as a 'tribute' to old jersey laces = Typical Nike garbage.

There is an Olympic hockey jersey thread up...

I thought you might be...wasn't sure of the other two as anti-Lucia venom is pretty high around here sometimes.

ENG...5-3 is your final.

And the Finns take the lead 4-3!

You and a few other posters are aware of how well Dean Blais' 2012 team finished, right? 2010 was awesome...2012 not-so-much.

Hey Wreckincrew, did your hats arrive safely?

NHL Network is showing the games...Finns tie it up!

I'm curious what MSNBC's take on the pipeline is...tuned in to see but they were busy critiquing the Mitt Romney family photo. I guess that's unbiased news these days...lean forward.

If I were to withdraw all of the funds out of my 401(k) and move to The Bahamas, would the US win the gold medal at this tournament?

There's a reason folks who have lived out in that neck of the woods despite oil field workers...and you do little to help the stereotype. Oil rigging...rough-neckin'...carpet-baggin'... Canada rejoices today...it beat the USA.

With all due respect, 98% of the USA has no idea this game is being played right now.

Actually, they're called 'Finns.' Just like if you're from Germany, you're called German, if you're from Sweden, you're called Swede, and if you're from Denmark, you're called Danish as opposed to Denmarkian. See? It all makes perfect sense.

I'll second that motion...but your dad is a riot!

Eff it all to effing eff. I have ignored this thread today for a reason...until I realized that I forgot to set the DVR to 'record' this am before leaving for work.
