jojordan23 Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Tell me the NY Times DID NOT JUST CALL THEM THE FREAKING "BRADY BUNCH"!!!! And since when is Murray the center on that line, I thought ZPar was? Quote
jojordan23 Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Me too. Why do you think the "sign idea" thread has one that reads: IRMEN, COME HOME! Your credits WILL Transfer! - UND Admissions Dept. TFF Quote
CoteauRinkRat Posted November 5, 2003 Author Posted November 5, 2003 Tell me the NY Times DID NOT JUST CALL THEM THE FREAKING "BRADY BUNCH"!!!! And since when is Murray the center on that line, I thought ZPar was? Who is Carol Brady? Don lucia? Quote
WPoS Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Brady Bunch! HEEE-HEEE! Now that is a name that will take time to kill! JBSU is gonna get jealous! WPoS Quote
MinnesotaNorthStar Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Brady Bunch! HEEE-HEEE! Now that is a name that will take time to kill! JBSU is gonna get jealous! WPoS When are they not jealous? The Brady Bunch name needs to go. I'm going to try to make it down there for the game, even if I don't get tickets. We'll have to see what is going on that weekend. Quote

CoteauRinkRat Posted November 5, 2003 Author Posted November 5, 2003 how is the scalping outside of Mariucci and the ralph? I have no idea about this in either place Quote
dagies Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 It's available outside of Mariucci but used to be affordable a few years ago. Last year 30 minutes before game time tickets ran about $60+ per. It's getting out of hand. I've no exp at the Ralph Quote
WPoS Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Like I said in a different thread: they are selling RUSH tickets to every game (even "sold out") at Mariucci this year, so scalping is not really needed unless you miss the RUSH tix. WPoS Quote
Smoggy Posted November 6, 2003 Posted November 6, 2003 The week of the games down there you can go through UND as well. Though it might be tough. I got tickets through UND a few years ago. Maripukey doesn't really like to put Sioux fans together like how REA keeps a visiting teams fans. Doesn't a school have to give the other school an allotment of 5% of their tickets? Quote
#7 Sioux FAN Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 I hope we kick some FERET ARSE..oops..I meant GOPHER Quote
sioux14 Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 Doing RUSH tickets at Mariucci you miss the first 10 minutes of the game but they have a TV in the waiting area, so it isn't too bad. I expect big games out the both Potulny's and Irmen for the Gophers since I am guessing they will be pretty pumped to be playing in their home state. Still, I think that Sioux will take at least 3 of the 4 points this weekend. Quote
U2Bad1 Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 "It was probably our mistake that we didn't get Grant," Blais said. "It was probably Ryan's mistake that he didn't come here." I can tell you that gopher fans really have their panties in a bunch over this statement. Quote
schmidtdoggydog Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 I can tell you that gopher fans really have their panties in a bunch over this statement. Gopher fans with their panties in a bunch? We've NEVER witnessed that before! Quote
mksioux Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 An article about Sertich is linked. A tired quote from Lucia: "North Dakota has probably got one main rivalry, and it's us," Lucia said. "This is the weekend that they wait for." A subtle jab. This is a play off the "we're everyone's rival" theme the Gophers love to talk about. They will never admit this game is more than just a typical game for them. Just more Gopher arrogance. Quote

They will never admit this game is more than just a typical game for them. Just more Gopher arrogance. What an arrogant statement. I'm sure that he said the same thing about CC being UND's only rival in the mid to late 90's when UND and CC were on top (and he was of course the coach) and UM was down. UM is a great rivalry, but not the only one. When Wisconsin was good, that was the best rivalry. CC has also been a great rivalry the past 10 years. Quote

On occasion Lucia speaks in a reasonable and sensible manner, however, this is not one of those situations. It looks like his fellow book club members, Wooger, M'Zacco, Tom Reid, Reed Larson, Sonmor and Nanne rubbed off on him a little too much this week. Quote
ScoobyDoo Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 I can tell you that gopher fans really have their panties in a bunch over this statement. I barely even mentioned it. I don't know about POI but I brought it up on USCHO and it hardly had any mileage at all. If that is "panties in a bunch" threshold, than the threshold is pretty low. Quote
OETKB Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 I don't know if this has been posted anywhere, but Milewski on USCHO has predicted a Sioux SWEEP: North Dakota 6-3, 5-4 Ya gotta love that. Quote
dagies Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 In today's Herald Blais throws a compliment the gophs way, but UnHappy opposing fans who think Blais only wants to play "cupcakes" probably won't give him credit for it: Blais said that may change. "There's talk of expanding our league schedule to 30 or 32 games," Blais said. "With the flexible schedule we have now, every four-five years, we won't see Minnesota play here, and that's too bad. Fans want to see that series. And I don't know how much good it does us to go outside our league to find games when the strongest teams in the country are in the WCHA." Quote

I consider UW a bigger rival, but still thinks it stinks there are years we do not play UND four times a year. I may consider UW our biggest rival but the history of this rivalry is second to none. Personally, I'd rather see more WCHA league games. The Big Ten allows its teams to each have two permanent rivals (MN has UW & the 'eyes) and I do not see why the WCHA could incorporate that into its schedule. Well, I'm sure there is a valid reason, like total number of game limitations, but you get my point. Plus, some poor team beside MSU-Mankato would get stuck with UAA every year. Quote
Brent_Bobyck Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 I can tell you that gopher fans really have their panties in a bunch over this statement. Where did this quote come from? Classic! Quote
ScottM Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 He has a valid point. I consider UW a bigger rival, but still thinks it stinks there are years we do not play UND four times a year.

Well, I'm sure there is a valid reason, like total number of game limitations, but you get my point. Plus, some poor team beside MSU-Mankato would get stuck with UAA every year. I too would love to see more league games, especially with traditional rivals. From the league's perspective, with its revenue sharing programs, it makes more sense to have UND, Minnie and Wisco play each other with two series each during the season. We have the biggest barns, the biggest rivalries and even when one or all of these programs are down for a season, we still sell more tickets than anybody else. Even if SCCC is 10-0, I doubt they could fill REA like a Wisco or Minnie series, especially if its around a holiday or something else is going on. I know people who have traveled through blizzards to GF when the gophers and badgers are showing up. Quote
UMDDogz Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 SCSU's record appears a bit.....uh....deceiving. 5-0-1. They've beatn Wisco twice, beat and tied Tech, and beat Princeton (once in OT)...all were one or two goal games and all were played AT HOME. Still, it will be a tough test for the Dogs. It will be interesting to see how they respond. Quote
