Very funny Mr. Sunshine. I have never said people have to agree with what I post and I don't care if they do or not. And if calling them as I see them is considered in poor taste by some, then so be it. I am through pulling punches on issues that affect my alma mater (athletics and otherwise). And, for the record, I wasn't planning on mentioning my distain for Saturday-Sunday afternoon games again. I hope that puts you at ease.

I hate these Saturday-Sunday afternoon weekends. College hockey should be played on Friday and Saturday nights, in front of rabid, passionate fans, as God intended it.

He just cannot finish. I think he needs to stop being so hard on himself. Just go out there, play, have fun with your teammates and things will work out much better. Of course, being trapped in Hak's "business-like, structured system" doesn't help either.

Very good post. I'd +1 it more than once if I could.

My section (204) had lots of empty seats in it.

I don't know, but I was there and it was horrible. I honestly think the Cushman Classic had more people than today's game.

You are correct about that. The reason they ever committed to Minnesota in the first place is because Shantel Rivard was the head coach and the program was a train wreck. Then Idalski took over and they transferred. Coincidence? Nope, I don't think so either.

All he was doing is giving a perspective of why Ponder would do what he did and why it wasn't all that risky. I have seen dozens of players do it. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Rarely does it roll into the end zone and out of bounds for a safety. I think you just took it wrong.

B-R-U-T-A-L

They are still not as bad as what Oregon uses for football.

Wow, was this really necessary? Bad hair day? Come on, it's TGIF.

Also, the pylon is considered part of the endzone and thus, if you are in bounds and touch the pylon with the ball, it is a touchdown. Ponder was really close to doing it last night. It didn't matter as Pederson scored on the next play, but Ponder getting hurt might matter next week. He was looking better than I had ever seen him and then he gets hurt. I hope it isn't too serious.

Just what we don't need right now.

I think Jacksonville is going to finish 0-16, which means the #1 overall pick is out of reach anyway. As long the Vikings get a top five draft choice, I can live with that.

I am in the lower bowl directly below that (Section 106). I have had those seats since REA opened, although I think 306 gives you a better vantage point for viewing the whole ice. I once sat in the very top row of the upper deck around center ice in the student section; it looks like a video game from up there!

Look at this this way, it will save you pain and suffering down the road.

The Lamoreaux twins didn't get an NCAA title, but they gave this program instant credibility when it had none. That helped in recruiting and helped speed up Idalski's rebuilding timetable. Now it's time to knock Minnestoa off their pedestal. I am sick and stinking tired of seeing their smiling mugs on the front of the Star Tribune sports page. Putting a stop to this undefeated streak of theirs is a good first step to putting them back in their places. Beating them in the NCAA tournament will be the next step.

This is Super Bowl-quality material and we get to enjoy it during normal programming!

I was joking with you btw. But I agree with you on the FB program 100%

Wow, I think I might ask Sic to help me with my stock investments! Maybe he should change his username to "The Oracle"!

Sort of like those Lions fans that were kicked out for holding up "Fire Matt Millen" signs at Ford Field? Yeah, I guess they should have supported him instead. Fans that pay good money for Champions Club membership and FB season tickets shouldn't have to apologize for being unhappy about the product currently being put on the field. As far as I am concerned, they have every right to bring "Fire Muss" signs to the game on Saturday.

If we ever decided to drop FB (I don't see it happening), this would be a logical scenario for UND. The rest of this is pure garbage. And I thought NDSU fans were delusional.

Whomever is an established coach for one of MSP's many college and professional teams is a "close, personal friend" of Hartman's. I do admire him for working well into his 90's.

I wish somebody would flatten that fat, out-of-shape, cheesehead fan that they use in that commercial. What a rube!

Only this: "Mussman isn't out there not making plays". Said by Sid Hartman many times over the years.
