  2. Is anyone going this year? If anyone goes could they post what the attendance is like please? I know wrong place but people will see it here.
  3. Yeah your cruising south down the 101 say just past Indian School and bang everyone is slamming on their brakes. You've been there and done that. Amazing that there were not major pile ups and deaths.
  4. It almost looks like he was out cold before he hit the ice.
  5. I think you found the best solution. Considering where 3 of the 4 Michigan schools are located. Alaska would fly in anyhow. So most likely the Beavers and Mankato would also. I really think a smaller arena would be better.
  6. 50% includes the 2 Alaska teams whose fans would not come even if they were in it. Good drive for LSU, Ferris, Tech, NMU, and close enough for BG. Heck BG is closer to Grand Rapids than LSU, TECH, or NUM even. By a hundred to 2 hundred miles. So all schools, excluding the Alaska and Minnesota schools, are within 400 miles roughly of Grand Rapids. I think some leaders in GR need to get their act together quick. Grand Rapids in less prohibitive than St. Paul is. This is assuming that the Beavers or Mankato get in.
  7. They took them off the 101 because they realized when everyone hit the brakes that was more dangerous than people speeding. Well if he was driving a Lambo he could afford the couple grand it cost him.
  8. I remember seeing the sign when you were still by the airport in Sioux City. There is like only one and it is not very big. So better words not seeing it does not surprise me. I don't remember seeing one when you come form the north though. Only from the south. If I had not I probably would have gotten a ticket in the mail. Well not really since the plate was not for the car I was driving and the title had not been changed yet. The plate was for a Chrysler and I was driving a Hyundai. Don't ask. The Hyundai was registered still to a doctor in Scottsdale.
  9. Not a lot of long time fans here that never say these guys play. A couple of years ago I was sitting next to Eades flying back into town probably 2007 or 2008 and I asked him how the new teams would do against the 87 team. He said the 87 team would blow these guys off the ice. Third line guys in 87 would be starters today.
  10. I think you are right. Really what do you have at the X? Bemidji? Mankato? 2 Minnesota teams and 4 Michigan teams does not make good numbers for the X. Grand Rapids is a good idea. A 10K seat arena still will be an empty barn. Better than 16,000 empty seats at the X.
  11. Did you miss the sign that said 55 MPH and the speed limit photo enforced? Whenever you see those signs pay attention.
  12. Robbie has been in Germany the last 2 seasons making nice paychecks.
  13. Yes but money is money and good shows that attract a lot of fans is a good thing for GF any day. It seems that country shows are a safer ticket sale bet than rock shows.
  14. Definitely one of greatest all around players of all time. People forget the numbers he put up.
  15. Googled him and tried listening to a couple of songs. Tried is the word.
  16. Some people have cajones. Others? Their wife's have them.
  17. A: High school athletes are not treated like the rest of the kids? B: You never wanted to flip off your boss and walk? C: Two games left to play? D: Enlisted guys ignored their LTs to stay alive? E: High school athletes are held accountable?
