Hockey East Jeopardy 2001 Game Thread

[NCAA watcher]

Thanks to Chuck and the crew who put a lot of time and effort into making our lives miserable this past week. Much appreciated.

ahhh... ok.. sorry, i goofed.. (not actually too surprised)

[butchr]

Chuck, i'd like to also congratulate you for doing such a fine job on this.. it wasn't the easiest to do, and you did it very well...

Nice Job Chuck!!!!!

Thanks also to the other teams, Chuck and everyone else...it was a battle for quite a while and I certainly didn't expect us to be able to pull away the way we did, but it sure did allow us to breathe a lot easier going into final jeopardy. And it is an honor to have won against such tough opponents. I never even considered watcher's suggestion that we bet it all because I held the other teams in such high esteem, I believed there was a good chance we would lose if we risked more than we had to on the final question.

Good luck to the WCHA and CCHA teams...and again great job Chuck in pulling it all together and making it run so smoothly.

Well, can we at least get the award for the team that actually works at work?

Hey, wait a sec ... isn't that what Team BC and Team NU said two years ago?!? http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/wink.gif

Chris - you will always and forever be the captain of the first HE Jeopardy Champions. You can bask in that glory, at least 'til it comes time for next year's showdown!! http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/smile.gif

BTW - thanks to everyone for the kind words! I'm hoping everyone enjoyed this little "diversion" half as much as I enjoyed putting it together!! http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/smile.gif http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/smile.gif

Hey Chris - in this economy, I think that award is called a job. http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/wink.gif

Just kidding - just heard on the news about EMC planning to lay off 1100 people, so I got a chuckle reading that comment.

One last belated "thank you" to JimW, whose visual depiction of the Game Board was an innovation I'm hoping he can duplicate for us in next week's WCHA Jeopardy game!!! http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/smile.gif http://www.uscho.com/board/ubb/smile.gif

No problem Chuck. I'd be more than happy to continue doing it for future rounds.
