    Well, yes, of the D who play regularly. I wasn't going to go with Students or Thompson since they wouldn't really get bumped by Ness since they already don't play much. Schmidt, Marshall and Helgeson are better, so I would put Alt in the lower half of the 6 regulars. I don't think Alt has improved much since last year, and still has an occasional shaky moment. And yes, he hasn't contributed much offensively, which is part of the position too. I don't think he is horrible or lacks potential, just not in the top 3.

      Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

        Better one for the Gophers this year would be:

            Just saying. I've watched my team, and remember, win each of those for championships.

            But I guess talking about how many wins each program has since Motzko left Is ok, but discussing how well your team has done in your own lifetime isn't?

            No offense, but you guys have so many odd rules on which discussions are and are not appropriate on this board.

            For instance, talking about program history ruins a thread, but filling said thread with paint thinner and deer abuse comments is acceptable.

            Seriously, I'm just trying to figure out what type of trash talk isn't going to draw criticism from my own fan base. And I am having problems keeping up

                  You don't get it. It isn't belittling to SCSU. The Gophers have been so bad for their standards, that they are now on the same level as a team that they mock and ridicule for a lack of success. If the Gophers were Marcia Brady, now they are 30 lbs. heavier and have bad acne. But now they lost 5 lbs and think they are back to looking like their old self again.

Many of us have a tattoo waiting in the wings, WHEN (not IF) the Gophers are champions again.

                    Be more clever than "7>5!" or "Husky Women!"

                    Trash talk is the general topic until about Thursday. That's the trend on this board. I don't think anyone wants 4 days of constant breakdown (think of this like a pre-game for the Super Bowl; who the hell wants 8 hours of breakdown?!).

                    Anything about history is generally limited to the current season, or if it's early enough in the current season, the last completed season is okay.


                    These ain't my rules. Just my observations from my time here.

                      Dude, you act like the Gophers have fallen off the map like Tech has. They have struggled, by their standards, for 3-4 years. All programs go through those spells. North Dakota, Wisconsin, ect.. Included. The Gophers are not on the same level as SCSU, and you are absolutely clueless if you really believe that.

                            Two thoughts:
                            1. J Dubbs: we don't have rules on what you can and can't discuss, we just for the most part don't enjoy when you join the convo. And I think more people in your fanbase are on board with that than you care to know.
                            2. I used to be insulted when people complained about how much the SCSU fanbase sucked... Now I'm starting to agree with them. Oh, and I'll warn you guys, there was a shortbus sighting last week
                            tUMD is Jan Brady per Brenthoven. Whew.... thanks for clearing THAT up.

                            Best USCHO quotes to date:

                            "UND/DU will realize that their party sucks, because the easterners only want to drink Zima." - BPH

                            "It is too bad that aaron marvin was a senior so he can't go after the rest of the sioux". - bigblue_dl

                            "I would rather play the blackhawks than you right now." - dogs2012
