Swap rowney and Rodwell, and consider playing Dickin for Simpson (maybe?) and I think you have a lineup.

If you end up with an extra, give me a holler. -
This will be a test for sure. At least Duluth is down two defensemen, but their top line will be intact. That is the line we have to neutralize, and then pick up some goals with our depth. Another solid game from Mr. Dell will go a long way to helping! GO SIOUX!!!

I've never failed to get a B2 broadcast that I paid for. Even the follow up e-mail link. That doesn't mean I'm not annoyed by the floating tiger head at CC though.
-
Great! I checked B2 a few days ago and this wasn't listed. Anyone know if there are bars in G.F. that will show the webcast?

Hi, Looking for 4 tickets to Fighting SIoux v. BSU on Saturday afternoon, Feb. 26. Would like lower bowl seats if at all possible. Thank you!

May we all get what we want for Christmas. In April, at the X. GO SIOUX!!!

Does Frazee count? He hasn't stepped on the ice in a New Jersey sweater yet, but the Sioux did send him to the pros...so to speak. Bina may have done it single-handed-ly.

Honestly, I don't think I said it should give him ANY advantage, other than now we know a bit more about how he handles adversity that he's brought into his own life. What I was really trying to say is that I don't feel that, in seeing what we've seen of his character in overcoming the obstacles he has, that ANY of these obstacles should count as a knock against him. No advantage, no black mark either. I don't think that slights any other athlete in the least.

Whether you make mistakes early in life or later in life isn't the question. The question is how you DEAL with the mistakes you make in life. It is a matter of character, and Mr. Frattin is showing a LOT of the right stuff. Oh yes, a kid who keeps his nose clean also shows the right character...but is his any better? Did Hobey Baker go through life without making any mistakes? Likely not. But ask yourself, if Hobey had found himself in Matt Frattin's shoes, which path would he follow? Attitude, character, and great hockey skill are the attributes the Hobey committee look for. Not saying Matt Frattin is a shoe-in Hobey candidate beyond any out there this season, but he should certainly not be excluded by default because of the mistakes he has overcome.

I can't say I "set" it for 92 deg. w., but rather "nudge" it to the west from the 91w position. And I figure the nudge is good for about 1 degree. And it REALLY helps to communicate with someone inside the house when you 'nudge' as my dish is 200' away from the house. Running back and forth isn't a good option.
-
Like me, you may have to 'tweak' every game. I have to run out with the cell phone and call someone inside who can tell me what the signal quality is while I tweak the dish. It's pretty sensitive, and doesn't take much to miss the spot. Pretty sure when I turn the system off at the end of the night and back on the next eve., the motor moves the dish back to 91w position (home position) and I lose my spot from the night before. If you have a fixed dish though, you shouldn't be having trouble once you make the adjustment. FYI, I have the 90cm Hotdish.
-
Every home game this year I have to tweak my dish 1 deg. W from the 91w position. Then I can get 70%+ signal and quality. Enjoyed a fine picture of tonight's broadcast. The transponder must be off to the side of the satellite or something, I don't know, But I can tell you that when I'm pointed right at 91w I get zippo for signal, even though I see other channels on that satellite just fine.

Frattin clanged a lot of iron, and shot quite a few wide, that year before the flood gates opened.

In terms of? Goal scoring? Ok, maybe so. Stick handling? He's got hands as good as anyone on the team. Speed? He's got it and it shows. So yeah, he's in a slump and isn't hitting the corners of the net, and many times tries to do it all himself, but honestly I like the way he plays. His pass to Trupp on top of the crease at Mankato was a perfect play. He works hard on each shift, isn't afraid to go into the corner for the puck, and every time I see him get open with the puck I look for something good to happen. That will come. Mr. Frattin was snake-bit his sophomore year, and there have been many others over the years. If Danny Kristo continues to work hard good things will happen and, with some good fortune, those things will be happening in March and April.

There is a lot of potential to college hockey, for sure. Consider all the Big 8, Pac 10, and SEC schools that don't have hockey programs. I know there is some interest in the Northwest, and perhaps developing downward into California. Gaining programs on the West coast would really open things up.

Right where that 06-07 team should have been at this point...

Mr. Rodwell

Great win for the Sioux. Had to play gritty and finish. MacWilliam with a great save, and Chay with a gritty pk finish in the 3rd after getting drilled by the puck. Looking forward to hearing the goofy/dawg score... Great weekend for the Fighting Sioux! Now let's get healthy and go on a second-half tear! Edit: Duluth and UM tie. Duluth comes away from The John with 1 point.

No video here yet. Wish I had seen Queen in concert too though...

The purple cows aren't going to lie down and go quietly. The Fighting Sioux will have to go out there and TAKE IT from them. Let's Go SIOUX!!!
-
Got to get some hop in the step in the second and third. Let's Go Sioux!

B2 says the game is at 7:37.
