  1. Although I feel like I'm being led down a path of eventual demise, I agree. Whoever wins, gets the nickel. We don't play anymore, that winner keeps the nickel forever. That sounds too easy... what am I missing, here?

  2. Care to comment on this one, Ralph? :D

    The re-seating of the arena is going to happen, whether nets are installed or not. Although it is a convenient excuse, it is not the reason for the seat changes. It all goes back to the suites being built at a level where the ice is impossible to see when the crowd in the lower bowl is standing.
  3. It seems that last year after one of the coaches shows something which was posted (it was not a direct quote, and which I don't believe was posted to be read as a direct quote) was turned over...

    So much for "nobody pays attention to those stupid message boards"... :)

  4. Tony:

    I'm having difficulty understanding your opinions on this subject because of your hazy implications and lack of smiley face icons... For the benefit of the siouxsports.com board, please edit your posts accordingly. :)

    Seriously, you are correct about the polls not mattering. It does give us fodder to throw around on Sun-Fri, but like you said... it all comes down to winning the important games.

  5. The intro from the first season at the new REA, with the championship seasons flashing to the musical stylings of Godsmack, is still my favorite.

    Right on... During the Denver game last year, they played it at the end of regulation and everyone went nuts. Definately cool. If its as bad as it sounds, maybe I'll stay in the bathroom Saturday night... :)

  6. On the coaches show last Wednesday, Coach Lennon didn't mince words about taking Bowencamp out if he didn't produce. I guess we saw that result in the game on Saturday. Anyway, my point is that Wilson obviously knows the system and has looked decent in practice for DL to say something openly on radio before an important conference game. Bowencamp undoubtedly saw the writing on the wall, right?

    I might be reaching here, but sometimes a team will rally around one individual vs. another. Much like coaching, sometimes a team will "play" for one coach but not another. Could this be the case with Wilson/ Bowencamp? Of course, its easy for me to say these things given the current win and situation as a whole. Just throwing it out there...

  7. When thinking about the game, look at how big the two extra points missed were along with stopping their two point conversion before the second half.

    Nice to see them actually throw the ball to Lueck, although he dropped three balls, he is an exciting player who makes things happen.  I hope they continue to utilize a playmaker like that.

    Exactly, CRR, special teams plays were huge for us... Defensively and Offensively...

    Lueck was noticeably frustrated. After one dropped pass, it looked like he was taking himself out of the game. Helmet off, doing the arm wave-off thing, shaking his head, etc. Everyone has bad games, I'm sure he'll be fine.

    PLAY OF THE GAME: Wilson's heads up pass to convert the final fourth down and get into field goal range. It looked like he comitted to the rolling run, and at the last second hit a planted receiver on the sideline for a first down on the 35. Great job seeing the field. We all went crazy... one hell of a game. (Jeff Glas' field goal could also qualify for POTG :) )

    PREDICTION: Wilson starts next week. (not really going out on a limb here)

  8. I won nothing.  I was yelled at by a grumpy lady if that counts for anything.

    I think I saw that... do you sit 3-4 seats in in the first row of 108... wear a #5 jersey, and sit next to a guy with a lighted hard hat? Even I thought she (and her feathery blonde fellow) were being pricks...

    BTW, If the Duluth station really called UND's first goal a deflection...

    Are "deflection" and "trickler" synonyms in hockey lingo? :):D;)

  9. We need to do some hitting:

    1) Bowencamp needs to hit open targets.

    2) Travis Lueck needs to hit the open field.

    3) Adam Roland and Brandon Strouth need to hit the holes.

    4) Jeff Glas needs to hit field goals from 50 yards without hitting the crossbar.

    5) The defense needs to hit Heckendorf. Really, really hard.

    Bonus) The coaches (no names) need to hit the books and mix it up a bit. I'd have a million points with this team playing "QB1" :angry:

  10. All to be expected by them...

    1) Blowing sunshine up Vanek's ass

    2) Duluth is looking to solve "unfinished business (no NCAA bid last year)

    3) Sioux golies stink (nice link to the curse article, I see :0 )

    yada...yada...yada

    I swear, every pre-season article is a clone of the other... :D

  11. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't we already pay for "The Al" with our sales tax increase a few years back. Hmmmmmm

    Yes, we did and we still are. But I don't expect to go to anything there for free, even though I "paid for it." As far as 3 bucks? What the hell. Don't get me wrong, I like money as much as everyone else. But if parking generates some revenue, and its the norm with other universities and venues, why not?

  12. Greyeagle & WpOS:

    I don't think RW77 was trying to be insulting, just comical at the expense of the gophers as a whole. I'm sure he wasn't trying to make light of a family situation; he possibly didn't even know. No harm no foul, I say. (no pun intended on the word "foul")

    Now go back to POI you turkeys! :huh::D
