One in a million?

I'd be happy to take that wager.
In fact I'll give you odds that are 30,000x better than that, and still take the bet.

If that's too much math for you might try the following. My 15 month old finds it quite readable, so I trust it is about at your reading level.

That is probably more representative of the true chances Yale has on Saturday in reality.

Yale has a better chance of beating UND than Alaska has of beating BC. Both pretty minimal chances.

Yale's style of play is quite different from UND, and that gives them a chance in my opinion.

In a recent interview after winning the WCHA tournament Sioux Defensemen Ben Blood said:

...didn't want to give them a sniff, didn't want to give them any hope, ....(pause)..... ZERO!

Great!!!!

What a relief to hear that Yale's style of play is different than that.

Frattin gets a DUI, but the best Dakota story is Bochenski and the counterfeiting. From Wikipedia:

"Bochenski was originally recruited by the University of Minnesota, but lost his scholarship offer due to a counterfeiting charge. The University of North Dakota swooped in and extended a scholarship offer. Bochenski went on to spend 3 seasons with the Sioux."

Most amusing part of that story was how Bucks lost his offer from Minnesota a few days after he announced he was going to ND.

Yale has a fine chance of beating UND. In fact, I'm giving the edge to them. 32 games played this year, a lot of rest. A couple dynamic offensive players. 4 decent goaltenders to rely on. In fact, I'd say Yale knocks the Sioux out.

Wow, and I thought BC had the goaltending controversy. Well, if you have four "decent" goalies, might as well just call off the tournament.

Seriously, four decent goalies? That means you have zero reliable ones.

Maybe the Yalie's should try playing all four goaltenders, one forward and one defenseman.

I would hope it wouldn't be difficult to get people to attend games given that you all live in NORTH DAGOATA! The rodeo only comes to town so often to compete with Sioux hockey, huh? "What are we gonna do tonight, go to the Sioux game or milk Bessie? Hmmmmm." I'll at least give you all credit for making the right choice.



It seems like Sioux fans like anything involved with eating. You guys got Jenny Craig up there? If not she's missing a great opportunity.

What's with people thinking there's nothing to do in ND? I'd be willing to bet your fat *** gets home from work and sits on the couch for 5 hours until bedtime. You can't do that in NoDak? It was more boring for me to be in MPLS than it is in Forks..

I'd appreciate a response to this when you get back from collecting Cactus water

P.S. According to the CDC, Arizona's fitness level = 52.3% NoDak = 47.1%. Whoa big difference there!

Highest state - Alaska = 56.7%, lowest - Kentucky = 32.9%
