Good Morning Lodge!
Good Morning Lodge!
I'm somewhat happy my teams season is over. It has been rough.
It's funny, I love posting around here in the Cafe and enjoy many of you people. But I am becoming fed up with the other UAA posters.
Actually it's the opposite for me. This season UAA has not only been losing but playing terribly as well. Culminating last night by getting swept at home by our rivals. And the only response is "oh well." I'm just tired of the "well it'll be better next year" attitude the UAA fan base has. No desire to want something more, no expectation. Losing culture at its best.This is why I stay out of my team's thread. The negativity gets old.

The other issue is the folks who incessantly trash talk. I just wanna shake people and say "you realize we suck right? We have no leg to stand on!" Like last night, one of the UAF fans celebrates "six Governor's Cup in a row!" and the reply is "three in a row, cheaters never win!" It's just, really? We just got humiliated and you bring that? SMH.
I'm hitting my breaking point on dealing with them. I don't want to be associated with them. I feel like checking out of the D1 forum. Problem is, I like interacting with the people from other schools, especially the WCHA ones. I'm just not sure what the right move is.

I mostly lurk on D I side because of all you just posted. THe ones that make me crazy are the ones who are ready to accept the Stanley cup if we win and then throw the whole team off a short pier if they lose. They contradict themselves. After awhile it gets very old, esp if they don't know hockey and think they do. Some of the folks are great people tho so ignore is a great featureActually it's the opposite for me.

Be glad it was only 3... I've done 5 with a win and it wasn't any fun.Can't say Mookie has been at a 3OT game before.
Time looks fine here...Mookie sees board doesn't know what time it is

Successful Johnny Holm band show night. Tons of fun with State of Hockey and Brent. Dillo even showed up late! He missed the main show, though. I sang Friends In Low Places with the band. Completely out of nowhere Johnny asked me to come up on stage and sing. I wasn't good, but it sounds like I wasn't horrible either. And it was a blast, probably the most fun I've had a bar in years. My wife posted a video of it on Facebook, and I imagine it won't be too long until it is on YouTube.
It's snowing here in Worcester. I don't think it's supposed to accumulate or anything but I thought it was supposed to be nice out.
