Goon Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Do you really not want counterpoints? Is this site just a big Sioux love fest with no checks or balances? You said this board was a love fest, what is the problem with this? The same thing happens on GPL. Actually you will find less love there for the opponents than you will find here...

Sioux-cia Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Is this site just a big sioux lovefest ... Yep. MY point that you keep over looking is if you thing the HC think is a thing of the past and you don't want to hear or read about it anymore....don't. When I read something over at GPL... Nevermind, I don't go there or care what they say there. But hey, that's my choice. You are welcome here but as stated, don't expect us to say nice things about the Goofs in general and don't expect us not to enjoy ourselves at the Goofs expense any chance we get.

Actually you will find less love there for the opponents than you will find here... I asked if it was a lovefest. Too much love for gophers on gpl is a problem too imo. What I'm saying is there are always valid points from the other side and it would be boring if everyone sat on this site and said the sioux are great over and over and over without anyone challenging anything. And I'm not sure how you would quantify the amount of love shown for opponents on either site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I kinda like your site here. I think I will visit more often and enjoy your enjoyment at the Goofs expense. Btw, am I outta line if I say the Goofs win the title in 2 years? I think they have a good shot...so do sioux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forecheck Posted May 14, 2008 Author Share Posted May 14, 2008 I am a gopher fan and I must say that you guys are better than this. This holy cross stuff is so old and boring. The only reason this came up again is because a Holy Cross official contacted me about it, obviously hoping for some monetary support for their program. That is all. And you can't blame her for trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, you guys have slowly convinced me and I believe I'll be buying one now too. Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard. I like that, I'm gettin a tattoo of that. That is very inspirational. Large religions were founded on words less meaningful than that. GO HOLY CROSS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GO HOLY CROSS!!! It's about time that you converted to the Force of the North, but what do you know about hard work? Go wane nostalgic about what an animal Wheeler would have been if he got the chance to play his natural position. Flip! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fine green patrons of this site are teaching me all about the legendary holy cross work ethic. I don't even like the gophers anymore. wheeler who?

mikejm Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 ^Jeeze Sioux-cia, you're being kind of like Robert Conrad. You know, "go ahead and knock the battery off my shoulder. I dare you." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sioux-cia Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 You may be right. I just don't understand why he comes to a thread about Holy Cross jerseys when he's so over Holy Cross. No one is that thick! Don't like to read about it, then don't. I guess he just wants to be contrary. Not that I would ever be contrary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HockeyMom Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 The Holy Cross upset of Minnesota (at least to me) was a much bigger win for Holy Cross than it was a loss for Minnesota. That night the better team was the small school from the east, that out-played, out-hustled, and just plain deserved to win. I am honored that I was in attendance that night, it's something I will never forget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockey1 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 They were a couple of days ago. "They" as in ALL seven of them were talking about it and two of the seven were sioux fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sioux-cia Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 "They" as in ALL seven of them were talking about it and two of the seven were sioux fans Well, I wouldn't expect the entire membership of GPL to be talking about the same subject at the same time, so THEY is the appropriate pronoun. 5 out of 7 is a majority. I don't go to GPL but I accept Goon's post as fact and you have verified it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goon Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 "They" as in ALL seven of them were talking about it and two of the seven were sioux fans I am not so sure they get 7 posts in a day on that site It is definately not Sioux Sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goon Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Yet here you are. Yeah; why is that? If Sioux Sports is such a bad place to hang out why do all of these Goofer fans hang out here. Not that I mind because some of them add to the discussion. I actually met FHG26 he seemed pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianvf Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Was this article posted here yet? http://www.startribune.com/sports/gophers/..._refer=Homepage Interesting article, although it just sounds more like Reusse's opinion rather than backed up by any facts.

Sioux-cia Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Interesting read. Looks like the Goofs have come out of their burrows to discredit the article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
