When I am listening to a game of a team that I am a fan of I don't care if the announcer is a homer, it is part of his job. I don't care if an sports announcers sees the game from the other side of the coin, I don't need my announcer to give the other team props. Tim Hennesy is one of the best announcers in College hockey, I could care less if he is a homer. As far as the Wild Annoucers I think they are pretty good, in my humble opinion. The Wild announcers are paid by the wild to call the game. The other night I listened to the Philly announcers as they called the game against the Wild and they were just as bad of homers as you said the Wild ones are. Its just a sports thing. As for the Gophers you have to expect that Woog and Masucko are going to call the game with pro-maroon and gold goggles. If you don't like it just turn down the sound.

I would be willing to bet that Marto will be the odd man out.

That is really good news, probably sucks for Marto though.

No he is being silly...

If you have fcs you can get the DU and SCSU series this weekend as well... Goofer fans will tell you that Masucko and Wooger are paid by the University of Minnesota so that is why your going to get that in your face over the top cheer team broadcasts.

I have to agree with Homey, I mean it is so funny listening to the propaganda machine start making excuses for the golden chokers when the games don't go their way.

I think retiring the name is going to get ugly, just a prediction. It will be interesting to see how this shakes out in the future.

Some one posted this on Brad's blog in the comments.

The FSN boys are all ready getting ready to use the excuse, I can just hear it after UND whipes UND ass all over the John later this winter. I ca see this happening. I can see Kevin Gorg in his post game rant coming out with his pletra of excuses of why team is lossing. Funny they are the only team that uses that excuse.

I think you mean 2002 and it will be nice to not have to worry about the WJC this season.

They seem to beat around the bush so much but that was one of the options I was thinking or a brushed Hip/tail bone.

Sounded like the middle, say his backside/hip. That is what I gathered from reading it.

I like the tactic of not giving your competition heads up on who is playing. I expect to see TJ Oshie as well...

Even after almost two years it still doesn't get old.

I wounder sometimes why Parker is still coaching he doesn't really need the money does he? Yikes. Isn't he like 70 years old?

Me thinks we don't have to worry about BU or B.C. ending UND's season this year. Just a hunch...

Golden Chokers works really good for me...

Who? I never heard of him.

I think in the end it will be tough to get away from the NHL players in the Olympics, it brings a lot of positive press and attention to the NHL and I don't buy giving it back to the amatures.

I agree as well Stupid.

I guarantee if the Gophers put up with the calls the Sioux take their fans would complain like ours.

I think this claim is pretty much childish, because UND can turn around and call the John REA East.

Anyone know if they are going to reschedule the Centeral EGF game?

I can see it happening.

I believe it is the old you can't get them all. Although some claim that UND over recruits.
