UW vs UMD... no outrageous predictions this week.

Re: UW vs UMD... no outrageous predictions this week.

I don't think the thread was started to be funny.

I am pretty sure it was, because first s/he went into the VarsityWisconsin Should Be Banned thread and said:

Pardon me- I'm relatively new. I was just looking about for the UW vs. DU thread for the forthcoming contest, but can't seem to locate it.
Do I just start a new one then???
 
Re: UW vs UMD... no outrageous predictions this week.

I know, but I also never said it wasn't the norm. All I was pointing out is that in my opinion, I do not think it is a good idea before a big series.

True, but you could also make the arguement that its good for the team to go out and blow off some steam together.
You cant expect a bunch of college kids to not going out and do some drinking, especially when its someone's 21st b-day.

Eh...regardless. I wasn't upset about the starting of the new thread, as much as I thought it was stupid to re-post in it two days after the last previous post to give an opinion on a subject that had nothing to do with the thread it was posted in.
 
Re: UW vs UMD... no outrageous predictions this week.

Probably happened when he started the 5th Denver vs Wisconsin thread. I neg repped him after he neg repped me and called me a ****. (At least I'm assuming it was him, he didn't sign it, but it was during an argument I was having with him earlier).

But to be honest since that squabble he seems like a good Badger poster. Happy to have him on the board.



Whoa, whoa, whoa, there Chuck! That wasn't me. I didn't start the 5th thread (or any thread) if you'd just follow you're own link there you'd see the culprit. And I certainly wouldn't be calling you any of those starry words. Or neg rep you. Especially since I think you have to have 100 posts to do so. (could be wrong about that though )

Yikes. Apologies.

I know, I know, I agree blowing off steam is good. I am 21 and go out 3 times a week on average. That said, if I was playing for the badgers, I would not be doing that.

I think we have similar points of view, we are just arguing about different things.:)

Maybe not three times a week. But if you were on the team I guarantee you would be out at least twice a week.
 
Re: UW vs UMD... no outrageous predictions this week.

Why do you have negative rep? Who could possibly have been angered by you?


Thanks, I believe you were the only one who got the humor in the question about starting a new thread I posted. Obviously you are some sort of a freak of genius nature.

As far as my neg rep, I made a silly geek speak post in response to someone in this forum who just took one negative word from the previous post and then just more or less added "Bucky fans are" to it. I was thinking, "Geez. I don't mind being disparaged, it's often quite fun, but at least put some thought into it." My response went whooshing by most and next thing you know 6 longtime posters, not in the thread, or that I've ever seen, gang rep me with comments I'm sure their mothers would be quite proud of. In retrospect though I should have just written "please, let's all just try a little harder."

On the bright side, twice as many very nice posters have also pos repped me so I'm not too far down. (Apparently rep power isn't uniform?)

At any rate, I prefer to think of it as Cardinal. :)

No worries, but thanks for asking.

Re: UW vs UMD... no outrageous predictions this week.

Well now that that is settled...

Badger fans, what has been the major cause of your losses this year?

UMD has had some questionable goaltending, and just not being able to score. Chalk that up to good defense or just bad luck.

I think you would. If you didnt go out drinking with the team, it would only cause problems.
Besides, getting drunk on a regular basis is part of the life of a college student in Madison.

Id say the main cause has been just sloppy play. Ive seen plenty of times when the Badgers would mishandle the puck (miss a pass or turn the puck over), which resulted in a lot of missed scoring opportunities or resulted in giving the other team a chance for a breakaway and an easy score.

Yeah, you would give gray rep.

Glad all is well!

I got neg repped recently but I was just straight up mean and asking for it. Also today I am dressed like Freddy Krueger and so I'm in a great mood.

This is the most I've ever gotten along with Wisconsin fans! What is going on????

A lot of longtime posters don't have the best sense of humor(especially the ones who root for a certain under achieving team) and are also pretty unforgiving when a newer poster breaks protocol or gets mouthy.

Whatever, I've enjoyed your posts to this point and I believe I'm getting the overall joke, such as it is.

And yeah, the ones with 40k posts have more power for the dark side than folks like me have for the light.

It's coz the Gopher fans are bunkered down and hiding in their own thread in shame coz of their hockey team and ol' Chuck and Choke. Without them here to misrepresent us, the spell is broken and you're seeing what wonderful people we really are. ;)

It's funny, being a UMD fan. I don't really hate the Badgers (yet). I do hate the Packers with a passion however.

On second thought I will probably let the hate flow when the games start :)

Also, I am sober.
 
Re: UW vs UMD... no outrageous predictions this week.

This rep thing is stupid. I repped like, everyone I know, because I wanted to see what would happen to W McB if I repped him/her again, and then I finally thought I'd repped enough ****ers to do it again, and it said I had given out too much. FASCISTA!

edit: W00t! Double post!

Re: UW vs UMD... no outrageous predictions this week.

If this has been covered I apologize. Is this series on the boob tube at all? Is there a Twin Cities radio station carrying these games?

Bucky needs at least a split.
