    Thinking they would rather have someone rent the place who's check will actually clear.
  2. Frozen4sioux
    In all fairness yes, but that's probably the mentality they still want to hold going into the tourney.

    Century has some good ol' Walsh County roots throughout the team if your looking for storylines to support....
  4. Frozen4sioux
    It's embarrassing. The hell is he arguing with stripes about, the dork commentators are just scoring zingers on him left and right... kinda like goals in the nets
  5. Frozen4sioux
    Don't worry... they won't be.
  6. Frozen4sioux
    How?
  7. Frozen4sioux
    They seem to have avoided letdown all year so sometimes it may come down to the fact, they're a dang well coached team that has enough mid tier depth to sustain and outlast. Lot of talented kids. They may not have the top goalie or D but they're still pretty good. Outpaced my expectations for sure. The favorite now most definetly.
  8. Frozen4sioux
    well yes agreed but it is a "bit" more complicated than that. in the end I'd really like to know why NDHSAA is charging so damn much for the "rights"....... I suppose I could inquire there. Is what it is for this year.
  9. Frozen4sioux
    So much, and done such a good job. NDHSAA purse is an absolute barrier for the best interests of the kids yet again. But $30 (really any amount probably) is an absolute non starter for 99% of the casual extended family, or interested high school hockey fan in the region, let alone anyone maybe tuning in to check out a kid as a potential interest for their org. I don't have all the answers for the best way to run these things. It is truly an web of crap with all the different options and production places, tiers of rights holders, owners, bidders.. fees/fines/etc even finding people to want to do this is tough, especially at basketball tourney time. Been an tough year for coverage of WDA hockey OUTSIDE of the great work being done by PSP.. Although BEK did a decent job of picking some games up, and the guy firing up the thing in Williston shows promise as well. Is what it is, I guess.

    Huge dick-punch to those that thought they were going to have their friends and family, and interested hockey fans watch the WDA tournament. After securing the rights to the WDA tourney PSP Network has now announced they have suddenly switched to a subscription model. No more games on YouTube to easily watch. (YouTube will provide only the audio) Now every person who wants to watch has to log in on a computer or mobile app only... @ $14.99 a day per user or $29.99 for the tourney...... Remember that terrible NFHS Network option that we previously discussed...this is arguably worse. As it is about the same experience, albeit with announcers, but at triple the price tag. Just a damn shame all around

    Its probably a bit deeper than that at this point..... https://www.facebook.com/share/p/Mdiv46iHJpcCJaRd/?mibextid=qi2Omg

    WDA play-ins hold serve for the top seeds. Bottineau ends Hazen's season. 7-3 Williston run times BHS 7-1 Bismarck High ends their 50th anniversary year with their worst season in program history, 1-21.
  13. Frozen4sioux
    That's gotta be pre-covid and dare I say pre-smartphone era. There hasn't been enough people to fill any bowl in quite a while it seems. Bismarck gets what it deserves for not doing a damn thing about a proper arena, No economic impact for you.... but Minot could host a state boys tourney just as good as Fargo can.. Better actually .....CAUSE YOU COULD GET A GYAAATDAMN HOTEL ROOM IN MINOT!!!!!
  14. Frozen4sioux
    I'm guessing the Williston entity got a sponsor to pay the "fine" for doing it outside the NFHS Network rights or is also shooting the feed through their system. The WDA rights portion I believe expires after the '25 season. Anyone who votes to renew it should be tied padless to a goalposts and have the entirety of the squirt international participants fire pucks at them as part of the Squirt-lympics The NFHS Network deal is the worst thing to happen to high school sports viewability since the invention of the moving picture.
  15. Frozen4sioux
    There is that pesky "school" thing on Tuesday/Wed morning to consider... but I guess not a ton different than Hazen and Bismarck High's trek tonight.
  16. Frozen4sioux
    That and eliminates potentially additional nights in hotels and odd game times. Say if Bottineau wins vs Hazen they play at 11am Thursday in Bismarck. That's potentially another overnight stay I would think, or a really early travel day, but certainly a huge disadvantage even for an 8 seed. Although an 11 am gametime seems pretty odd and out of the norm for a 1 seed too.
  17. Frozen4sioux
    Absolutely agree. WDA need to follow this and frankly it's not a bad idea to do quarterfinals for state that way too. They pulled that off during the covid year and I thought it was interesting. Would eliminate the consulation and 5th place game, but dare I say it would make for a better combined boys/girls semis/champ situation, also maybe better for scheduling and rink availability. Maybe wouldn't have to push half the games over to a red-headed stepchild rink of shame like they do in Fargo.
  18. Frozen4sioux
    And the Minnesota rubes actually still blame the players for taking it.....
  19. Frozen4sioux
    So who's daddy is trying to secretly pump up their kid's tires?
  20. Frozen4sioux
    Word on the street is Legacy lost Sr D man Jameson Johnson. Thats a considerable loss for the Sabers but they did have success when he was out of the lineup earlier in the year so I'd say they are still one of the favorites in the WDA and to break the western first round curse. I saw some notes that Mandan have most of their injured players back as well. Don't sleep on Mandan, Leingang can win games on his own in net.
  21. Frozen4sioux
    Amatuer hour is back in the booth. Geeez just grab a dad to call it at this point.

    Not going to say Miami isn't worthy enough to deserve facing the "business suits".... but Miami isn't worthy enough of facing the business suits.
  24. Frozen4sioux
    Make their athletic dept reimburse everyone a prorated portion of the nchc package. Won't mean a ton of money but maybe signing all those refund checks could teach them a lesson.
  25. Frozen4sioux
    That gane was chili on spaghetti bad... I mean in the end, we got spaghetti and more importantly chilli, so there's that but, yeah real ugly.
