    To build off of what Suze said, Anchorage is also not a sports town. We had a indoor football team that was pretty good near the end, did they ever draw more than 3k? Ever go to a ABL game at Mulcahy in the summer? Half full and souless. UAA hockey is self-explanatory. It doesn't help that these teams play(ed) in 20/30/40+ year old venues that scream depression, I don't think they've ever cleaned the Mulcahy bathrooms.

    Anchorage is very much a commuter city, UAA has absorbed this mentality too. Nearly everyone does their thing and then goes home, very militaristic. There are few things that draw a huge and lively crowd in this town.

    Of course you could argue that poor city planning, weather, lack of convenient public transport are causes for a "dead" city, but it comes down to the residents. There are smaller, and bigger cities that support sports and city events better.
    I heard they were bringing back indoor football.

    From ADN:

    "According to NCAA, the (UAF) hockey team used ineligible players in every game played from the 2007-08 season to the 2010-11 season. Over that span, the wins and ties will all become losses. 4 wins and 2 ties came against rival UAA".

    UAF is 56-86-12 vs. UAA.

      That was a gutsy performance our boys put on last evening.
      Work, work, work and then they worked some more.
      Best performance of the season.
      Do the same in _airbanks next weekend and the rewards will be sweet.
      It's a great day to be a Seawolf!

        Agreed, they never gave up against a very talented and fast team.

        Getting back to the topic of live TV and attendance. I spoke with many boosters and former Booster presidents during the parents dinner on Saturday, and every one of them felt the live TV is detrimental to attendance at the Sully. Case in point ... one booster dropped off their food and headed back home to watch the game on TV!! Truth.

          The extra 100 fans is really going to have an impact. Why don't we concentrate on our power play eh?
          If I had a cool pic or saying it would go here.

              If we had a power play we would be in 4th place. But that just doesn't seem to make sense to anyone here.

                  Preaching to the choir.
                  Just to be clear. My disinterest in this team became of the Uni's disinterest. Without the success of the hockey team, the other teams would not be where they are. Way to pay back the hockey team. **** UAA.

                    You're thinking of the major sports leagues and their teams, ala NFL, NBA, NFL, MLB, NFL, NHL & the NFL.

                    Not college sports.

                      You Seawolf fans that headed to _airbanks earlier today left just in time.
                      They're playing bumper cars on the Glenn outbound.

                            It appears our illustrious legislature is going to take our PFD and our hockey team.
                            Best set up a howl to them now before they eliminate our Seawolves.

                              Let's hope at the end, we don't lose any of our sports teams!!!

                                I'm just gonna give everyone here a collective smack across the back of the head.

                                STAY THE * OUT OF THE UAF PLAYOFF THREAD!!!

                                JFC people we have zero legs to stand on when it comes to trash talk. We lost, we're done, get over it. Michigan Tech beating UAF doesn't mean jack * to us. UAF is in the playoffs and we're not because they beat us 3 out of 4.

                                If you wanna post, post here. Otherwise you're just a *ing embarrassment.
