OK, I know there is still plenty of time left, but this would rank right up there on a list of great upsets, at least in my very humble opinion.

NATO wasn't happy when we joined The Arab League, so they talked to the Warsaw Pact countries who lobbied the UN. Obviously, the Axis of Evil was delighted with the result.

I think it was just after we got kicked out of OPEC.

Let's go USA!

My goal is simply to re-pass HockeyMom, who apparently has a lot of time on her hands these days.

At 5,918 posts yourself, Goon, you're no "employee of the year" either.

Will PCM get some type of award when he records his 10,000th post?

Yea, because NO ONE else has black as their primary color. Nothing says "SIOUX" like a sea of green inside Mariucci Arena. Black? That just blends in with everything. I, for one, don't like the Sioux "third jersey." If you're going to do a third jersey, at least make a template or logo change on the front. A black jersey would be cool if it had "SIOUX" written diagonally on the front and maybe small Sioux patch logos on the shoulders. As long as Nike continues to invade college hockey, you'll see the templates that are easily changeable for doing other team jerseys. Before long, Sioux hockey will look like Oregon football. Just my two cents...

The World Jr tournament is second ONLY to the Olympics in Canada's eyes.

Stop Nike insanity! The new jerseys are template-tastic!

Talk to any hockey fan in Canada, Goon. Winning the WJC ranks a close second to winning the Olympics in the eyes of Team Canada. For the last WJC in Grand Forks, I remember reading somewhere that any time the Canadian team was on TV, somewhere in the neighborhood of 80% of the TVs turned on in Canada were tuned into that game. I challenge you to find 80 TV's TOTAL in America outside of Grand Forks that were watching the same thing. Same thing for the 2004 World Cup of Hockey...the rest of the world rallies around their countries and as I walk to the Excel Energy Center for the big semi-final game between USA and Finland, several people on the street commented about how they didn't know the Wild had started already! Apparently hockey is, was, and always will be a niche sport in the United States. Sad, but true.

It was Jack. Nice to see him chuckling about the penalty in the box, too, just after he put his team down two men.

If my mite grew up and played hockey in squirts, bantams, or high school and pulled a stunt like that, I wouldn't need the school board, coach, state representative, or the pope to bench his a** because I would do it myself. In the kid's defense, what DON'T kids pick up in this Stuart Scott "boo-ya" world of ESPN highlights. It's style over substance and kids get a daily dose of it on Sportscenter.

When I first saw this thread title, my immediate reaction was "Wow...St Cloud's going to try to field a D-1 hockey team?".

Long time caller, first time listener! I was born in Dickinson in 1970 and was raised on a ranch about 20 miles north of Belfield. My parents still run the ranch (celebrated 100 years this past July) and my sister and her husband are in the process of taking it over in a year or two (I have another sister who attended NDSU and now lives in Plymouth, MN). Moved to GF and attended college from 1988-1992 and have been in Minneapolis/St Paul ever since graduating.

You know, as a former fraternity member myself, I always roll my eyes because it seems like everytime something like this pops up, no one can identify a specific incident, but it almost ALWAYS involves a "fraternity guy" or "frat boys" doing it. For crying out loud, back up some statements like that that didn't involve an incident in about 1975. That act grows old. If Kappa Sigs in my day were guilty of anything, it was portraying the Romans in a poor light (toga parties) or perhaps dressing in poor taste representing farmers (haybale hoedown).

Nice to see a mix of old and new coming together for this venture. I thought this was an interesting article and thought I would share it... Syracuse SkyChiefs Change Name

I always find it amusing how liberals are so quick to jump to the defense of the downtrodden and preach peace, love, respect, and diversity, then you mention the word "Republican" or "George Bush" and all of a sudden, those "values" are quickly forgotten. I can't wait until the Dems take office in January, either, mikeypat15. I'm eagerly awaiting the Pelosi proposal for the new direction in Iraq and the Democratic plan for an exit strategy.

Miami football player murdered outside his apartment = typical renegade Hurricanes. BU hockey players injured outside bar = find the culprits and bring them to justice. Hmnnnn...

I'm not implying anything, but I'm just sayin'...I don't recall an incident like this before Phil Kessel got to Boston...hmnnnn...

Thanks, Sioux-cia. I also e-mailed Bigchief to see if he could help. He was going to ask around as well.

Hey SiouxSports.com hockey players, I was browsing thru my Pizza Factory jerseys in preparation for the upcoming broomball season and it turns out that I am missing one of the green jerseys. I am missing the green #8. Can anyone help me find it? I enjoy helping out the cause but can't afford to lose too many jerseys as my own team needs them. Thanks for the help!

My 5 year old's Christmas wish was a Mike Commodore bobblehead. Thanks, THETRIOUXGRINCH.
