Funny side story- we had dinner last night with a former player, who had one of his best friends play for state. And they are still best friends. So the players don't have the same hate that we have for each other.

Oh yes indeedy. Those bonds that go back to Mites, PeeWees & beyond naturally lead to quite a few such lasting friendships.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Yes friendships can survive the rivalry but yes, the two hate each other.

No, they don't hate. Just compete with more intensity.
The hugs after the game are very real.
Hate may have been a little too strong of a word and my knowledge of the situation does date back a few years (2004/2005) but I received the certain feeling and words from several players that the wouldn't pour water on a sparty (friends excepted) if they were on fire. And then there was this a couple years later...
Re: University of Michigan, 2017-2018, a new era starts
Spoke to a friend today about Michigan Hockey. He informed me that he has heard from multiple people close to the team that the Freshmen are looking outstanding in practice. Now I can't say that this guy is reliable, but I also can't say if he is full of isht. Basically take it for what it's worth, we'll be young but highly competitive this year. I hate looking to the future for results but as Timbuk 3 said, "The future's so bright I gotta wear shades."

February 25, 1984.
Gas was $1.10 a gallon, a movie ticket was $2.50, the Olympics later that year were boycotted by Warsaw Pact countries, Jim Harbaugh was just a redshirt Freshman QB at Michigan.
That was the last time someone other than Red Berenson was behind the Michigan bench. Tomorrow will be the first time since then it's happened.
