Never really been a big country music fan but I just might have to start watching, uh listening, to it more. Actually, this video with the Stepford Wives/robotic type band member guys is the opposite of the video done by the late Robert Palmer for his hit "Addicted to Love", which for you young one's had real (female) "Stepford Wive's".

Hey, you make a good point I hadn't thought of. Me and my buds (not students/old guys) actually do the same too since attendance is normally 1/2 at best.

.03 difference? Really? I noticed Mia Man the save percentage for each goalie is not listed. Just curious, what are they? I would put a hair more stock in that than I would GAA. As an example (not saying these are correct stats); if Mia faced an avg of 24 shots on goal a game but the Sioux faced an avg of 34 shots a game you tell me which goalie is doing better.

Are you serious? That doesn't happen at home. Disciplinary? Why would Roscoe start over Evers, makes no sense if she was healthy?

Gotta admit, well said.

Cratter--Oh man, that's a real low blow! Thx for reminding me I'm old. I took Fortran computer language at Gamble Hall I believe (pc and laptop back then, what's that?. :-)

Ahh, man! That visual is awesome. Beating a dead horse! Hah!

Over a decade? That's for sure. I believe it's been going on for at least 3 - 4 decades. I was at school 81-85 and believe it was going on then or at least soon thereafter.

BisonDan--Didn't the herd beat Mont (or State, I forget which?) at home like 20-10 this past season? Assuming home field is worth 3 - 7 pts (Fargodome maybe even more?) that's a somewhat close game then is it not? So, did SU simply have a down day that game or did Mont/St simply have their best game of the season since you said EW is the only good team in the BSC? If EW was the only "good team" in the BSC surely SU on their home field would of blown out an avg or mediocre team I would think? Either way, something's not adding up.

Agree. Back when UND was D-2 power attendance was fine, even when hockey was strong. Hoops is a bargain, like $7 for gen admission and $12 I think for reserved (?), season ticket a real good bargain. Heck most week night games you can get a free ticket at the Betty front entry from other fans. the big problem is students just don't go to hoops (even with last year's senior dominated/decent team) unless there's free pizza or we're playing NDSU or some big name non-conf school (albeit, rare at home).

Specifically their downfall has been their Big Sky play on the road. That's been their issue this year. They seem to start slow most games then have to dig out of a hole, have too many turnovers, inconsistent scoring from the starters, etc.

You read my mind, thinking exact same thing the past few weeks. Shanks seems to get a bit excited and also looks to lack confidence at times, which negatively effects his play I think. I still like his future though.

Hooker is no doubt a nice player and certainly the best player for UND but his best/only shot at the pros will be overseas, certainly not the NBA (hopefully he proves us wrong, all the better for UND!). You make reference to his height; as Minnesota's Mr. Basketball 2 years ago I think what stopped him from going to a better/bigger college program was his height. Had he been 6'3" I'm not so sure he would of been available to UND.

Probably a good point. Let's hope they catch up soon as I would really like to like women's hockey and hence go watch it.

I saw today that Blais is like .500 overall in maybe 5 seasons at Neb-Omaha (although he did win 2 natties prior to that at UND), while Sanderlin is maybe the same overall or even less in 15 or so seasons at Duluth BUT he did grab the 1 natty in 2011 even though most recognize the Sioux were no doubt the best team in the land that season based upon a full season's sample (the true test). So, don't fire the UND Pres, instead fire Hakstol for his "mediocre" teams over the last 11 seasons and bring in Blais, Sanderlin, Eaves (he also got a natty in '06 I believe but not thinking he will this year, just a hunch),...whoever!

Mia has already played 42 games (shows overall record above of 30-11-1)? I assume that should be 20-11-1 overall record?

I love hockey and the NHL (I might watch the T-Wolves on occasion but that's about the extent for the most part), believe me, but that's why it will forever in the U.S. stay #4 of the four major league sports, bush league/WWF stuff like that and maybe at worst a slap on the wrist.

I'm guessing cus the sign said fire Kelly, not that I agree the student(s) should be removed for that. Doesn't that kind of go against what college is about (open discussion, dialogue,...)?

Agree, curious indeed. Thur night he came in and put up I believe a quick 6 pts, scoring inside and medium/outside range. Looked sharp. Then he leaves and believe he never got back in at all for the 2nd half. Today he didn't see many minutes at all. Jones' substitutions really baffles me sometimes.

You know, I try to stay off the refs but parrot face Anderson I swear has it in for the Sioux. I realize one or two games doesn't prove much but you watch his calls here over a season or two and it's damn near blatant, it's a joke.

You know, I'm as liberated as any 50+ male can be. Over the many years I go to lady Sioux hoops games, love it. I coach youth girls soccer and watch the women's US team whenever I can. However, I've been to like 3 lady Sioux hockey games over the last decade (last game I went to was vs Min last year, big crowd) and I'm not sure I'll go again. While I follow them on-line and in the paper (great 2nd half surge this year) I just don't get into it. You know why? Hockey excites me cus it's BOTH fast AND physical (men's) but for some reason they don't allow checking (okay, I know they bump each other a bit) in women's hockey. Why not? It's women against women? Whenever I see a play near the boards I'm expecting a check and then nothing. I wish I could like it cus I like watching sport but not touch hockey.

Leaving in about 15 min. Hopefully can pull out a rare home conf win (this season) to make the day a bit better for the seniors.

And he's coaching like a dead horse, not that I would beat him.

Tim and Swyg are on 1440 AM each weekday morning like 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.

While Brewster's team may be "underachieving", it's not by chance that term was selectively used (such as mediocre or poor, such as you could describe one team's season) to describe the women's teams season to date. Yes, the women's bar was much higher than the men's team coming in this season. The women hhowever, unlike the men's team, are still a good BSC team and should still make the BSC tourney and have that shot at making the dance. The men meanwhile won't even make the conf tourney so no shot at all.
