You and me both.

How can we criticize players (see aso: Howard, Dwight) for taking LESS money to go play somewhere where they feel they would be happier? If Jeremy Roenick agreed to play for ten years in Siberia and three years into that deal decided to retire and return to the United States of America, where he was born and raised and where his family still lived, would Sergei Fedorov call him 'selfish'?

I liked JR as a player...but crying on camera when the Blackhawks won the cup a couple of years ago and now this? C'mon, Jeremy...

JR went absolutely ballistic over Kovalchuk's decision to return to Russia a week or so ago. Like it personally offended JR.

You beat me to the punch.

Did Jeremy Roenick blast his 'selfish' decision too?

Livin' the dream, GFG, livin' the dream. Welcome back.

Well played Mauer.

BLASPHEMY!

Right on. M-I-N-N-E-S-O-T-A has always belonged to Minnesota just like 'home of the SIOUX' has always belonged to North Dakota. I was honestly surprised at how many Gopher fans at last year's Final Five yelled out 'Gophers' at the end of the national anthem...get your own material.

Today's deep thought: Rolling Stone magazine...what a disgrace.

Wait a second, it just dawned on me that the reason it seemed to me that Gopher hockey games weren't on TV this year was because I went from December thru March without Comcast or Dish Network. I suppose it's kind of tough to watch games with rabbit ears...D'oh.

I'm MafiaMan...and I approve this message.

I wasn't counting the alternate channel...but you're correct if you are counting it.

I'm speaking in terms of how EVERY Gopher game used to be televised on FSN...heck, it was only a few years ago that the Wild weren't on and FSN couldn't even splurge and send Frank and Doug to Anchorage. They called the game from the studio!

Are you talking in-state or nationally? For the past 7-10 years, you haven't been able to find a Gopher game in the Twin Cities on FSN thanks to the Minnesota Wild. Kind of similar in NoDak with new deal, no?

I'm one of your good friends too. Just sayin'...it's like watching a production being broadcast from Neptune.

Well, back in the day, when Minnesota had a professional team...

Groan...I saw a few BSU games last year too. They'd have better luck having Goon just show the games on TV by recording it with his iPhone.

Maybe it would help cancel out the effects of too much shampoo in Joe's hair and help Justin's headaches?

Comcast isn't available in my area. Dish does have CBSSN...I watched lots of games last year including some UMass-Lowell and Quinnipiac games.

I have Dish Network...saw maybe one Sioux game last season. This is an IMPROVEMENT over last year, plus I get to see some additional games.

Gee, not that it didn't help fans who live 20-30 minutes away from the X avoid having to take 1/2 a day off of work in order to see their team play...

I'm likin' it!

What % would actually report that as income on their 2013 tax return anyways?
