    True, there does seem to be a bit of an Eastern bias here.

      I believe UMinn needs even less than no respect to get into this tourney I hope they will get there by the end of the year

        "Brackets look good, except we are concerned that Clarkson's close proximity to Massena might mean somebody could attend."

        Apparently, you haven't watched much Clarkson hockey this year! I think keeping them in Massena may actually decrease interest.

          As the chair of the George Gipp Arena Welcoming Committee, I feel that this is a very wise choice. An implosion of the Portage Lake Lift Bridge (seeing as how in reality, this Regional is being held on an island) is quite necessary to make this a pure success. Can't wait to see you all soon. The Mite tournament that will be held there this weekend should be a good preview of what's to come.

            BTW, for your last point, swap Bentley and Clarkson instead of Tech and Harvard.
            A. The committee thought it was reprimanded last year for referring to "AIC", and that they had actually renamed themselves "AIU". Upon further review, it seems we were mistaken (which is par for the course). All further references to this esteemed institution will be labled correctly as "AIC".

            B. The committee considered the Bentley-Clarkson swap, but were thought it best to take the Harvard-Tech swap as it gets Tech away from the regional in their back yard. In hind sight it might have been wise to ALSO swap Bentley and Clarkson, as that would hurt attandance AND keep the integtiry of the brackets intact. There will be time to fix that later.

              Some pictures of the inside of the rink would be appreciated. Please keep in mind that several other potential venues are still 'sniffing around' in hopes of 'stealing' a regional. There are even rumors that those folks in PA actually arranged for the roof collapse just to enhance their chances. Do you REALLY think a little thing like a missing bridge can stand up to that sort of competition?

                Oh, I'll be sure to get some pictures this weekend.
                I should've gotten some last weekend when my own mom was running the concession stand!

                    For one, you can't say that.
                    And two, that might make them reconsider the GGA!!!!

                      Considering that it's the only bridge that links the "island" part of the Keweenaw Peninsula (where the Gipp is) with the rest of humanity, it should be considered significant.

                      Also, I think that concession stand may have to be closed for the event. On the other hand (*bright idea*) I imagine it could serve a nasty pre-game meal. You know, the kind that will get teams puking on the bench.

                        The Kenner Dome Welcoming Committee has decided that even though we have a poorer building and a more remote location, the George Gipp Ice Arena is equally inaccessible, has horrendous ice and is also subject to rockslides. Therefore, we are withdrawing our bid for the 2010 Bottom Feeders Bracket Midwest Regional - but expect to see a much stronger bid for the Kenner Dome next year!

                          The welcoming committee of the St. Lawrence Center Mall Arena is happy to hear we have received the preliminary nod to host the NE regional for the Futile Four. We promise you will not be disappointed with the selection, and will strive to blow up every possible good thing that could happen for the regional.

                          Knowing this, we may have to devise a plan to "accidentally" run over a puck or 3 with our Zamboni, rendering it useless just before the regional, forcing us to resurface by hose and shovel, again. Pictures will be posted in 2 weeks, as the pictures that we attempted to take yesterday broke the camera (we aren't kidding, although it just lost power supply.)

                              A few thoughts for the "catering service" - cold cardboar...er, 'pizza' from the MUB (make sure it's a few days old too), burnt GFS (or similar generic) popcorn, and room-temperature milk.

                              The way I see it, you either make them risk food poisoning, or just don't serve anything. As the committee chair, it's your call.

                                They actually don't have popcorn...
                                They do, however, have mini pizzas & hot dogs. I'm sure something could be done with that.
                                Oh, and hard as a freaking rock candy.
                                I was actually thinking Little Caesars pizza that's a week or so old, like they like to serve at Calumet High School.
