      The announcers were Wooger (Doug Woog) and "The Rug" (Frank Mazzocco), the University of Minnesota FSN North announcers. I think Wooger might have been a little tippsy as he kept confusing the teams and players. He kept calling UMD the Gophers, etc.

        I thought the same thing. Not one of Woogers' greatest games last night. Did you hear him call someone "Duck Soup"?

          Yeah and all their little private jokes and laughter, half of the time I didn't know what they were talking about. Wasn't Woog the coach of the Gophers a while back?

            Yes. Woog coached the Gophers from 1985 to 1999.

                A Shot And A Goal posted this last night in the game thread during one of Wooger's ramblings.

                According to Wooger when there's a timeout in an NFL game he goes to his refrigerator to take a leak. That's bizarre even by his standards.

                    Classic. How did I miss that!? The argument over whether or not they saw some guy (the replacement linesman I think?) walking down the street vs. the sidewalk was pretty good too (and awkward).

                      Bought my plane ticket to Detroit last night. Here's hoping that the team will meet me there.

                        This is a dilemma match-up for me. One part of me wants the Pios to win the Final Five and go into the NCAAs with momentum. Another part of me knows that a loss right now can let the team know how hard they need to work to win the ultimate prize! DU's 2005 team won all the hardware and therefore showed that they were an incredible team. The '04 team showed that some rest was very beneficial and, in fact, stole the championship. I guess we shall see.

                        I hear you Swami! But there is no rest as DU would have to play in the Consolation game on Saturday. (I hope they do away with this game in the new Final Five configuration.)
                        I only quote myself to give Old Pio an opportunity to offer his exegesis.
                        I'm sure a liberal dose of Crown Royal will fix that exegesis right up.
                        Since DU has been hot since the Boonetown to Motown thread title started, I think it should remain in the title somehow.
                        GO DU !!!

                          Got mine.

                          DU students organizations are working on chartering a plane to Detroit. DU does everything in style.
