    Trouble is, "gopher players" are "upstanding citizens" as well. They will not be distracted from focusing on the task at hand. No hook-ups, no ganja, no naughty bars, just wins.

    Unless they mistake North Falmouth, Massachusetts on Cape Cod for Anchorage, Alaska I doubt I'll see them. There are some surprising similarities however. Instead of Moose clogging the roadways as in Anchorage, we have Thanksgiving dinners (aka Turkeys) in the way and attacking the mailman. Both joints have amazing delicious seafood. Both places have fantastic scenic bike trails. Both places have plenty of good local hockey rinks. Both have good marijuana (if your team needs a hook up in Anchorage, I've got a number for a guy that will bring it to them ... and Lucia will want that phone number after Friday night's result). The cape only seems to have one strip club, so there's that.

I know of a couple hardcore MN fans that are en route as I post, and they should represent the fanbase well. They are good fans. If it helps, one of them is a rather big and tall man w/petite wife. I am guessing they won't be missed in the crowd if you're looking.

Hopefully, the players get out a lot and enjoy the beautiful Alaska fall days and they shouldn't hesitate to get in on some of Anchorage's most excellent nightlife. I'm doubtful that that it's as easy for the underage DoughFours to get into the bars as it is in Dinkytown but there are a couple of bars in Fairview (just a few hundred yards away from the Sully) in which they might not get carded.

    This seems to have the proper amount of bandwidth required.

    Not sure why that would have changed. Probably bogus info
    Watched the 2nd half of last season exclusively via stream. Was quite satisfied with the picture quality. The recommendation (if i recall correctly) is that you have at least 2meg of available bandwidth and obviously a computer that isn't a dog.

    Or a bad run at one of their casino's. Mystic Lake in Minnesota, not that bad.
