Big Ten > NCHC

I didn't say I had no idea hockey had started, I said I was too busy to do more than check on how the Gophers were doing. I guess here we go again with people feeling justified and the need to manipulate and change what I posted or just to make sh1t up in order to make their conflict with me seem more justified.

And too stupid to get into UMn? lol Whatever makes you sleep better at night FTLT. I guess getting an invite from West Point indicates low intelligence? And what is your excuse? You went to where? SCSU?? Where does SCSU rank amongst the nation's schools? Does it even make the Top 1000?

Ah yes... The west point invite... How could I forget.
Again Dubbers... No one cares.
Where I went... You don't need to know as I don't feel the need to spew my life here to pump up my ego.
As for SCSU's ranking... Don't know... Don't care.
Another year and Dubbers is a moron...
 
Yes, how could you forget? Easy, you WANTED to forget. You love hating me. You love making up fantasies about me to make your hatred seem justified. You can't stand the concept that I just might be a smart person, and/or a normal person, and/or a good person. You have Fred Derangement Syndrome, lol.

I forgot you existed Dubbers... It was not hard to do.
Then you slithered back...
And clearly have become even more delusional.
 
And I forgot you existed, too. How wonderful. And likewise, it was extremely easy. I even traveled through St Cloud a few times, and even that didn't trigger a single thought about you or SCSU or the NCHC or even college hockey.

Why don't you make an effort to ignore me, when you can, and I WILL make an effort to ignore you, when I can?

Ooh... You traveled through cloud? How exciting...
Ignore you? You're ignorant... An idiot... And stupid too boot. Much more fun to blast you and watch you self destruct in your crazy trying to respond.
This year will be so much easier too with how badly the Gophers suck.
 
And your stating that opinion doesn't make it true. For every poster here that thinks as you do, I can produce 100 people out there in the real world who disagree with you.


And "much more fun to blast you..."??? That shows the forum and maybe the Mods, who is the one trying to start trouble.

I'm going to try to ignore you this season. Why don't you do the same?


And does it surprise me that you need it to be "easier"? No. Difference between you and me. When I came in last year and saw how highly SCSU was ranked, I saw it as a challenge and hence, "more fun" to mess with you and other NCHC fans. But it was only fun while I believed you and others understood that what went on and was said in that topic should stay in that topic. Once I figured out you and a few others were unhinged psychotics obsessed with following me around intent on doing all you could to try to make me look bad to everyone else in the forum, then knowing how much it ****ed everyone else off who didn't frequent that B1G > NCHC made it not worth it. I didn't care that you tried to make me look bad, and was willing to have fun at my own expense and at your expense in my responses, but MY having fun is not fun when it comes at the expense of others.

What does it say about you as a person that you don't care that your desire to have fun blasting me ****es so many other people off?

Bless your heart...
 
Re: Big Ten > NCHC

OMG Dubbers.. I simply correct your claim that Twin Cities are the smallest metropolitan area with all major sports teams by pointing out Denver is considerably smaller yet has the big 5 pro sports and mountains, but you gotta argue me with that too... "I'm moving to Minnesota to go to UM so I can ski Highlands"--said nobody ever! And by championships, yes I meant professional. Broncos have been to two superbowls winning one (just in the time I've lived there), Rockies have been to a world series somewhat recently, Avs even won a cup as an expansion team.. Minnesota does not compare. And DU sadly has more hockey championships than the whole state of Minnesota. And theirs aren't the "back when few schools existed" championships like Michigan. If we're talking college sports, I don't understand your argument that Minnesota has more competition. Gopher hockey is already played on days such as Sundays so they don't have to compete with football attendance...Looks like it's worked wonders for both sports..

Since you felt it was necessary to take a shot at DU education and Colorado universities...A Big 10 education is the Olive Garden/Red Lobster of diplomas. Sure, in smallville USA telling people you went out to Olive Garden/Red lobster for a date night may sound sophisticated, but in the bigger world it's pretty pathetic to brag about. We can be fair, UMD would be the Chillis and SCSU could be a chinese buffet..haha. Comparing B1G universities to schools of the Hockey East/ECAC (NESCAC), Pac 12.... just may be best not to go there but it's too easy for you to brag about since none of their fans bother on this thread

And in regards to other sports, my favorite. Big 10 is such a power conference in sports--except for it's not at any aside from maybe wrestling which I know little about. Football? SEC and Big 12... Basketball? ACC. Baseball? IDK, probably Pac 12.. Hockey? Well, reminds me of talking to my friend from Indiana "hey at least Michigan lost in the basketball tournament"--her response "well...Big 10 hasn't won in so long, I would have rather seen them win". You know it's bad when you cheer for your rivals just so your conference feels more relevant. All the Minnesota fans cheering against UMD at the frozen four feels tantamount to a kid who didn't make the varsity team, so they go on cheering against their own school

I'm so over this B1G vs NCHC debate and am thankful this one was started by Dave K early season who disappeared to eat crow even though he claims he was being sarcastic... Honestly, I hope a school from Hockey East or ECAC or WCHA wins this year if it can't be UMD. It's so stupid. And the only thing B1G is dominant at in college hockey is their power of legislation being a power 5 conference. They will eventually use their iron fist in NCAA legislature to ammend the rulebooks to benefit themselves if it's come to it. They already had the option on the table with capping eligibility age, I am sure that comes back if they do not find success on their own

It's been *interesting* to have you back. And good to hear on the gf and I for one am glad you can come online to argue with strangers over random facts than having to take it out on your girlfriend

Re: Big Ten > NCHC

lol, this one really made me laugh. Are you suggesting that you think I am violent and that I would abuse women if I didn't have this site to, I don't know, get out my frustrations on? lmao, WOW. That just is so funny, everytime I think about what you wrote, it cracks me up, thank you. I think you meant offense, and that's ok, I took it with a grain of salt.

Actually no, I didn't mean it that way but knew right away it could sound like that. I just meant instead of you nagging the ***** out of her.. Didn't peg you as violent, out of all your rants I don't think I ever recall you wanting to meet up with anyone here to "beat their ***" which is quite common in the world of the internets...
 
Re: Big Ten > NCHC

That's fair. Like I said, I'm probably wrong in my assumption but that's what I've seen through my objective lens. The way I see it, there may be only 10 blue chip players in the state (example), and in the past I think the Gophers would get 6-8 of those 10 players. I think that helped them weather early departures or deal with "missed" prospects that don't live up to the hype. Today, I think they probably get closer to 2-3 of those 10 players. Which means if they miss on 1 or 2, you get what you have today. Over a 4 year period, 8-12 solid players. Which, being honest, is where UMD/SCSU/Mankato were for YEARS. That's why we all had to build up talent over 3-4 years and make a single run at the playoffs before going back into re-tooling mode.
Fair points as well. Props to the other Minnesota schools for getting better recruits/fits for their program.
 
Re: Big Ten > NCHC

And I'll keep this short because I've said plenty about this in the past, but the NHL's robbing the Gophers of so many players has to be taken into account. You claim that UMD and SCSU and Mankato are doing a better job of recruiting??? Really? Couldn't it be that the NHL hasn't yet started to go after Mankato players, and only recently has started to go after SCSU's and UMD's? And SCSU has done what to prove their recruiting is better? Won in the regular season? So what?
Yes, I do believe those schools are currently doing a better job of recruiting than Minnesota. If you claim that the NHL is robbing Minnesota then I'd argue that those other schools are doing a better job of bringing in kids that they can keep around for 3-4 years. Is it fun to talk about draft picks and all that noise? Sure. But unless they come in and win you a title, they leave after 1-2 years and you have to start over. Again, it's not that simple because the first time you miss on one of the high enders and they go elsewhere and have success you're gonna get ripped.

I personally don't take postseason success into account as much as some. A one and done format is a crazy way to decide a championship in hockey. You said it yourself, weird bounces can decide the outcome of games. Bottom line for me is that SCSU, UMD, and Mankato are all doing enough year in and year out to put themselves in the tournament picture, Minnesota is not. I'd rather be in the tournament than not, even if it's a long shot to win. YMMV.
 
Re: Big Ten > NCHC

If Minnesota was recruiting better than the other in-state teams, wouldn't they at least be .500 against those teams, instead of being embarrassingly bad against them? It's not like the Gophs have 4 or 5 guys leaving early to go pro every year, or really any year for that matter.

On paper, yes. We all know sports and rivalries can be unpredictable, but I'd agree that if there was that much of a disparity it wouldn't have gotten to the point it has with the run other MN teams have had against the Gophers.
 
Re: Big Ten > NCHC

I wonder if he was booted for this nonsense or for crossing the line i political threads in the Cafe. He was a little over the top yesterday and I could see there was potential for him trending toward the abyss over there.

Good riddance.

Back to the real issues...like bringing the Northstar Cup back but having it travel to each teams hometown round robin style. I'd travel to Bemidji for a 4-team MN tourney.
