The New WCHA (2013-14)
The New WCHA 2, The Electric Boogaloo (2013-14)

Summary of original two threads:
- UAH finally became a member.
- THE WCHA TWITTER FEED ANNOUNCES THEY'RE SADDENED THAT MICHIGAN, MICHIGAN STATE, MICHIGAN TECH, AND NOTRE DAME ARE LEAVING THE WCHA FOR THE CCHA FOR THE 1981 SEASON.
- UAA fans are against the travel subsidy.
- The Final Five format will be scrapped for just four teams.
- Conference tournament to be rotated between St. Paul and (most likely) Grand Rapids.
- Playoff format will make Hockey East fans nostalgic.
- NCHC fans are still jealous of Tech's "World Famous Nachos."
- THE WCHA TWITTER FEED WOULD LIKE TO ANNOUNCE THAT ALASKA ANCHORAGE WILL BECOME A WCHA MEMBER FOR THE 1993-94 SEASON.
- I'm fully aware that my WCHA Twitter feed jokes are just as timely as their actual Twitter feed.
- Tech still sucks. :p:D

Carry on...

Your Michigan Tech logo does not comply with The Institution's Identity Standards.

You're comment is already on record. Athletics don't quite fall under the same guidelines. For reference: http://www.nmu.edu/communicationsan...les/Pre-Drupal/graphic_identity_standards.pdf (Athletics mark is on page 10). And yes, I certainly took liberties with the 'Cats too.

And just for you, I'm tempted to use this logo in my next map update:

I would like to say that not all UAA fans are against the travel subsidiary.


And does nmu want Dave shyiak back?

Jesus Christ. The only ones happy with the map are the UAH folk. :p

*edit* Retired? Really? What's that right on http://www.bgsufalcons.com/ ?

Look again, you'll see that much of the falcon head is hidden behind the interlocking BG. Down here, we refer to this present incarnation as 'peek-a-boo falcon'. Our marketing department is managed by interns, retards and the children of retarded interns with ADHD, so we get a new-look logo every couple of years.

PS: UAH is just happy to be on a map...ANY map.

TECH UNVEILS NEW LOGO - WCHA twitter

I honestly prefer that logo about 100x more than stupid piano dog.
 
Re: The New WCHA 3, Revenge of the Sieve (2013-14)

Aaaaaaaaaactually the horse-head logo should never be found without "UAH CHARGERS" underneath the mane and main part of the head; elsewise we're infringing on the Denver Broncos.

Potential Additional Revenue from hosting 2 additional home games granted by the Alaska/Hawaii Exemption ...

(#of seats x price of ticket x 2 extra home games)
BGSU -- 5,000 x $20 x 2 = $200,000
Ferris Wheel -- 2457 x $20 x 2 = $98,280
Lake State -- 3373 x $20 x 2 = $134,920
Norm Ich U -- 3800 x $20 x 2 - $152,000
ButtSmelly -- 4350 x $20 x 2 = $174,000
MTU -- 4200 x $20 x 2 = $168,000
Kato -- 4382 x $20 x 2 = $193,280
UAH -- 6800 x $20 x 2 = $272,000

Yes you'll argue that these are not actual numbers. Actual attendance differs greatly. Ticket prices vary. Blah Blah Blah. Not my problem. This is a "potential revenue" number presented as an example.

Cut it in half if you want to ... average your team's actual attendance for the last three years and calculate the numbers yourself. WCHA teams used to dance around like it was raining gold from above when they got their fat $100,000 share from the Final Five each year and yet nearly every one of them made more money on the extra home games they played. The point is to be made again ...

Each of your schools is being more than fairly compensated for travel by the subsidies that make an Alaska trip equal to the next most expensive trip on your schedule that isn't Alaska. That's a perfectly fair geographic recompense ... the largess of the Alaska/Hawaii Exemption should be put to an end.

Am I ranting from a soapbox? Eff yes I am. Why? Because I'm already sick and tired of hearing the moaning and whining about your team's effing long arduous trip to Alaska. Quit that and you'll hear none of this from me. Don't quit and I'll bring it up from time to time to remind the whiners of the actual benefits of having UAA and UAF in your crappy conference. Don't like what I have to say? Avail yourself of the forum options.
