Bottom Feeders 2018-19: Just So You Know, They Really Suck

Re: Bottom Feeders 2018-19: Just So You Know, They Really Suck

This is by far the most action the Bottom Feeders have seen at this point in the season.

Therefore, I'm making a suggestion to MissThundercat that maybe it's time to add in the other college hockey tradition - the midseason holiday tournament. With new venues being suggested even after the regional sites have been set, I think there would be no problem in finding another (un)suitable location for the action.

Good idea. UAH, SLU, UNH, and Omaha are invited to it. Just give a location.

Congratulations to the James Sewell Ice Rink in Cloudcroft, NM. They have been selected to host the first Northern Winter Solstice ("NoWinS") Bottom Feeder Classic, to be played starting at 1:38am on December 21 with the Alabama-Huntsville vs Omaha semifinal. They will be followed by St. Lawrence vs New Hampshire.

The Sewell Rink has all the amenities you'd expect from the "NoWinS".

And we're just going to play 3 straight. After the semifinals, we'll allow the teams 30 minutes for coffee and gas station hot dogs.

That's unbelievably generous. Please tell me it's decaf Maxwell House.

We'll ask a church to save the coffee from their coffee hour the previous Sunday.

RPI 2, UML 1...

Regardless of what Flaggy thinks, RPI will probably drop out of the top (bottom) 10 with this one. An unlikely sweep would move them to the bubble.

Who was the famous actor that did not get the male voice part that said "Honey, that was a great cup of coffee?" in the old Maxwell House TV commercial?

The gas stations of Cloudcroft were all put in a hat, with the food supplier for the "NoWinS" determined by a blind draw.

The loser...er, 'winner'...is Allsup's Convenience, a 24 hour gas and snack stop famous for their toxic Bean and Beef Burritos. Per the request of the tournament committee, the items for the NoWinS have already been set aside to ensure they get nice and spoiled by December 21.

You're just ON IT! The Committee has allotted $10 extra to give Allsup's if they throw in some of these burritos.

Excellent try. But, it was Harrison Ford who ad libbed the line as a joke in the breakfast table scene in the film Witness. The Australian director knew nothing about the TV commercial nor Ford's rejection for the part, but loved the line, and kept it in.

There will be a shakeup come December. RPI will have to return to their woeful ways to stay in the top 6.

This week's trivia question is opined by Marty the Cat, MWO mascot at the summit of Mount Washington, NH, location once again for the NE regional. Which site is the higher elevation, the summit parking lot at Mount Washington, orrrrrr ....... the rink at the SW regional in Cloudcroft, NM?
 
Re: Bottom Feeders 2018-19: Just So You Know, They Really Suck

I've actually been to Cloudcroft, NM. Excellent choice on the committee's part. I believe nearby is a solar observatory that was suddenly invaded by the FBI, all the people removed and the place sealed last summer. So be prepared for possible change of plans.
