Only Six Months Until Next Season

I can't articulate how irritating it is that this backstabbing North Dakota groupie was right about the Gophers. He was also right about the camera work, but he understated the bad officiating by a factor of five. He wraps up the game about right though:

This one definitely makes the Top Ten Worst Gopher Losses Ever and may even challenge for a spot in the Top Ten Worst Minnesota Sports Losses Ever.

The boys looked flat and totally uninspired in their 4-3 overtime loss to Holy Cross. What a waste of a year. Honestly. What good is all the work if you can't get inspired for the national tournament?

Coach Lucia noted that, even had his team won, there was little evidence they had recovered from their WCHA coma. They would almost certainly have gotten crushed tomorrow night had they advanced.

Still, that doesn't mean I have to jump on the NoDak bandwagon like some other hockey whores.

Wait. Ya it does.

Besides, if the Fighting Sioux win it all rooting for them has the added bonus of watching the NCAA have to celebrate the most hated logo in all of college sport. That would be gratifying enough to cause me to uncurl from my current fetal position.
