Expand Any reason you can't just show up and talk hockey? Really? I mean, there are plenty of things to sling mud about regarding both Grand Forks and Minneapolis. And haven't we all heard enough bickering considering its election season? Sports is a reason to get away from that garbage, so let just stick to sports. C'mon Man! 6 Quote
John W. Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 Would be great just to talk about the game, but some go over the top.....I know this is a 'pro' UND blog....but some fans get a little 'full of themselves'...and take unjustified shots at opponents....and their fans...My point is that on Gopher blogs, much more interest in the Gopher-Purdue football game tomorrow...Gopher hockey is not a"passion" for UMN fans...but IS for UND..followers...Factoid!!!!! 1 2 Quote

Expand I would agree overall, there is a passionate group of hockey fans, but as a whole, you just need to look to which game attracts more people. Its actually really sad to see what has happened to the hockey fans. When I was growing up, we had Gopher season tickets, and the place was always packed. Went to a game last year against Mankato and it was half empty. I expect this weekend to be almost split between UND and UofM fans. Its not like MN is bottom feeds. We could argue all day about the strength of the Big 10 and the conference BS, BUT the bottom line is they have been competitive in their conference. They're not the perennial top 5 team that they were for several years, but it still surprises me that they can't get their attendance back up. Now, as for fans being "full of themselves", OF COURSE THEY ARE. This is a forum of fans, coming off of a national championship season that we had been waiting for for years! I think you'll get plenty of reasonable folks here, but of course you'll get some extremists. If you don't like that, then don't come on here. Also a little newsflash, we had to hear pretty much the same kind of stuff out of many Gopher fans for years too ......Every fan base has people who are a little over the top. 2 Quote
