I could really care less about the little 300 audio clips... they don't really disrupt anything

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010

Alright, as long as we are airing our grievances about Munn here, I have long been tired of the 300 audio clip nonsense.

They stopped haven't they? I hadn't noticed it recently.

They gave up on the blimp too.

And what's the deal with the new Zamboni? Electric right? I saw it one game I think and never since. Is it out getting a paint job?

It's been resurfacing the ice at Munn for all non-game events, I believe.

Considering that Spartanvision accidentally flashed a "Zamboni Ride" graphic on the video boards during the Ferris State game a while back, I'd have to assume the new Zamboni will eventually be our new in-game ice resurfacer once a paint job is finalized and applied.

Is the blimp still stuck in the rafters?

And, while we're at it: Why doesn't Sparty skate anymore?

They had it out for one game. Why the change though?

I think the FAA has revoked the blimp pilots' licenses. It had been suffering from significant control anomalies.

And, while we're at it: Why doesn't Sparty skate anymore?

Ok... it's sort of like this young A. Allen. Sparty is like Santa Claus but on a much smaller scale. Santa has a lot of work to do there at the North Pole so he has thousands of helper Santas to take all the little kids' wishes. Sparty is the same way. The real Sparty has lots to do there at the East Pole so he has to have a helper Sparty here and there. Unfortunately, not all of the helper Sparty are as powerful. You'll know it's not a helper Sparty when you see the true powers (one armed push-ups for instance; on ice-skates nonetheless!).

Show off the new goods? I mean, I can't think of a better way for somebody to assert their superiority than to bring out a new Zamboni.

I do recall a couple Hindenberg-esque accidents this season. Well, without the massive hydrogen explosions and death.

Hm. I would have thought it'd have something to do with that whole blow-up doll incident from a while back, but this explanation makes more sense.

The blimp was all ready to go for the last home Michigan game - they had it out on the concourse and the controls jammed. It had to return to dry dock.

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010

I would have posted this in the Alumni section of the board, but I see that MSU doesn't have a thread. A nice article about Ryan Miller and talks about his time playing juniors up in the Sault before going to Michigan State. Just in case anyone was interested in it... If not, then I return you to your debating about cheers & blimps.

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010

As much as I want to see a great weekend of MSU vs. UM hockey next weekend I really dont know if that's a match up I want this young squad to face in their first playoff experience. As a fan I will love it, but as a person with an understanding of hockey I am worried about it.

That is exactly how I feel. Will be very interesting to see how this team handles the week off then may face their biggest rivals and probably the most underachieving team in the ccha.

Exactly...we have not exactly played good hockey coming back from off-weeks. The GLI was our only performance that was up to par, but that was not exactly against talented opposition.

Lets hope it turns out good this one time.. As it is needed the most this next weekend.

I'd be shocked if LSSU played even remotely competitive tonight. That entire Lakers team should be in a quarantine somewhere, not at a hockey rink.

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010

Night 2 update: OSU up 4-0 at end of 1st, u of m up 1-0 about half-way thru 1st.

 

[gomsuman]

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010

U of M 6-0 end of 2. UNO up 2-0 in 2nd. OSU 6-2 over half way thru third. Looks like its going to be Michigan vs MSU in 2nd round.

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010

You guys know I'm green through and through, but I just don't like this matchup for next weekend. Maybe my opinion is skewed because of how bad LSSU played this weekend, but I really feel like we are going to have an extremely tight series next weekend.
