How thrilled are 3-year kids with getting a $50 gift certificate to Dominoes?

Yeah, okay the kiddies are cute. That is not dancing. The winner needs to be old to count to 50 and make change.

Once hot dog and Jesus' class graduated and took the hot asian dancing girl with them, the dancing contest has been passé
 
Re: BU season thread I - 2014-2015

Said it all along, BU number 1 was laughable, 2nd only to Merrimack ranked there a couple years ago

Nah, it is not laughable at all. It says what college hockey is this year. There are no super teams, and if you are at the top of one of the best leagues, that is where you are going to be.
Right now, there is not one team in the country that you can point to as say that is a sure-fire Frozen Four team. Not one.

So if not BU, who? Minnesota-Mankato? North Dakota? Harvard? Minnesota?
Michigan Tech? Come on?

No joke. It is what it is.

I picked up my Beanpot tickets at Agganis during the game yesterday. It made me think, I can't remember the last year when all 4 teams were collectively this good. All 4 teams have a legit chance to win this year. Yes, NU still has a losing record, but they have turned it around since their horrible start.

Agreed but it clearly is not BU. Good points though

On Eichel: The haters are gonna hate, hate, hate. Did I just... **** you Agganis Arena for playing Taylor Swift during time-outs. (Can we all agree this is an absolute abomination? Can I write my congressman about this? MORE BAND! Less 12-year old chick music! Christ on a cracker.) Other teams are just jealous. We've seen this act before, and us Fan Boys have been guilty of it in the past. Gionta is too small to make it in the NHL. Marty Reasoner doesn't play any D. Nathan Gerbe is just a hack. Well, okay, 2 outta 3 actually isn't a bad percentage, but still, you get my point. :)

I really like this hockey team. I love how excited they were to win that game yesterday. They were also wicked happy for their teammate that fans of other schools think they all resent and hate 'cause he doesn't play any defense and gets all the press. Anyway, gonna be a fun Beanpot and an even funner (Yes, I know that's not a word) stretch run.

BU Hockey: Shake it Off (Argh!!)

Fixed your post. You know if they played Radiohead at every break we wouldn't see this post from you. :p
 
Re: BU season thread I - 2014-2015

I think Ronnie may be the 3 sources that said Jack would be heading to MJ after the WJCs.

Read the post. didn't say he was leaving. Said he "needs" to leave immediately. What he is doing right now is killing his draft stock. Continues to play this way, will not be top 5 pick. Stand by Major junior next year.

Okey doke. Thanks for giving all of us Terrier fans your never-asked-for stance on Jack Eichel's future. Let's chat in June, OK?
 
Re: BU season thread I - 2014-2015

But yes, the real problem is ANY piped in music. We have the hardest working Pep Band in HE. We aren't at a dance.

So what you're saying is that you'd like the band to play Taylor Swift songs?
 
I hope Jim Pryor is okay, for his sake and ours. Today's PA announcer was annoying in the extreme. Does anyone know who he is?

On a separate topic, enough with the stupid Dance Contest.

Knew pryor had health issues but didn't know he was on oxygen until I saw him during nesn telecast
 
Re: BU season thread I - 2014-2015

And bomber, I really don't think BC fans have been tough on eichel other than having some fun with his coast job on BC's 2nd goal the other night. I wouldn't worry about rinnieb, guy is a dunce.

Not trying to deffend Rawnub here, but I will agree with JD that on occasion I get the impression that Eichel is coasting a bit too much for my liking out there... maybe I'm misreading body language, not sure. One that stands out to me was yesterdays game, not appearing to hustle when clearing the zone... i forget which period it was in.

I don't mind a little piped in music. Should be 3:1 ratio band : piped in.

Little kids love the dance contest... keep it.

It seems like the band director is figuring out the timing of starting up the fight song after the goal horn, plenty of time to play it... I think it will work well.

The more we have of them, the more I like the early game times. I hope they continue to have a handful of matinee games on the schedule every year.

Edit: The selection of piped in music could use some work.

Edit 2: Complaint of the day. Why oh why can't we produce a hot dog that is actually hot? Should they change the menu item to "somewhat warm dog"?

"Good player Major Junior next year" is what you wrote. I thought my translation was pretty logical.
