sioux fan in phoenix Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I'm assuming one of the Sioux asst. coaches will be in attendance & that we might get some signings (or at least commitments) from players in this tournament shortly after it's over. We should be taking advantage of our #1 ranking & enticing as many blue chippers as possible. Quote
Smoggy Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Has anyone else noticed that the last few years that Warroad makes it they get a night game, and yet everytime EGF did they had the first afternoon game? It's a long drive for both schools (though longer for Warroad) to bring fans, and yet EGF would have more fans than most of the other schools in class A and they had the farthest to travel. Thank goodness someone finally beat out Fergus Falls. Nothing like having a .500 team in year after year that would just be done right away. Quote
Diggler Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Wadena-Deer Creek will probably get slaughtered too. Section 4 is just the blackhole of Class A hockey. A fwe years ago Fergus actually had a quality team. Other then that though they have been like the Williston of the tournament every year. Quote

Would that be the '98-'99 team that lost to us 5-0 in the state semi's Quote

Smoggy Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Hey Diggler, Did you go to the games in '98? Or any other year? Quote
Smoggy Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 They actually beat Red Wing in the quarters that year...but they then had to deal with us. Yeah, and you guys took it to us in the finals. I still remember some little Benilde punks running down the stairs to our side of the rink screaming and holding signs. Good thing we didn't treat them like the kid from Thief River Falls that did that to us...the cops pulled him out of the pile. Quote
BigGreyAnt41 Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I'm just disappointed I won't be able to go to the cities for the championship game, Class AA, that is. Quote
Smoggy Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I don't remember any Benilde fans doing that, but I was watching the game. I know it wasn't any of my friends (or me). We were the ones that started the Warm up the bus, and Lick nuts chants (we got yelled at by our President pretty good for that one ) I think I heard the warm up the bus, but not the other one. At that time our fans weren't allowed to do much, because of repeated incidents with Warroad. Quote

Actually Warroad played at noon every day of the tournament last year, but in years before that you are correct. Quote
Smoggy Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Warroad sucks! Willy Marvin is a weenie! I just told my students the story of the ref getting hit with the litre of cola the other day. The look on the poor guys face, and there was nothing he could do because it was during the anthem. For everyone else that wasn't there, it sounds terrible, but you get a chuckle out of it. It was just like the ref from Slap Shot. Quote
Smoggy Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Actually Warroad played at noon every day of the tournament last year, but in years before that you are correct. Fair enough. I just don't understand the logic in Section 8 playing at noon. They're the farthest away! They bring plenty of fans the way it is, but would bring more if they got to play even in the mid afternoon game. Quote
redwing77 Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Section 8 plays at noon because it's a crazy division. Why else would a Section 8 be known as the discharge crazy people get from the military? M*A*S*H reference JAMIE FARR! Ok, I'm heading to bed. Quote
Diggler Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Don't be disparaging Maxwell Klinger and the good people of Toledo, Ohio with your silliness. Quote

So, bad reference. I remember seeing both Warroad and EGF playing in the afternoon. Wed. predictions....... Breck, SSP, Warroad, and Hibbing are all victors tomorrow. Quote
sioux fan in phoenix Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 M*A*S*H sucks...It's a very not funny show. So, bad reference. Agreed. Most overrated b.s. series in the history of t.v. Never understood people's fascination with a bunch of liberals using a sitcom to spread their holier than thou anti-war bias. Oh well, go Warroad! Quote
