    Urban Dictionary is interesting...Especially the second one although not specifically someone from Minnesota.

          Fine, I'll just go back into my den and fantasize about 2 Sconnie players getting hat tricks against the rodents every game.

            that's probably pretty accurate, the first people I heard using "Sconnie" were people that went to school in WI when they came home, so I suppose they were called that because they used the term

                Cool video that appeared on one of our local TV stations last night. Fun to see the Wild players on the bench give the women a standing ovation in front of 19,000 fans.

                    I can't believe a coach of his pedigree would be so overlooked by his own University. Another black eye for women's sports.

                      You really want him out of the women's job don't you. Actually, careful what you wish for with Muzzy making a name for herself with the Buckeyes she would be a shoe in if he left (and maybe get even better results).

                        Was Mark Johnson "overlooked by his own University" two years ago when the men's coaching job opened up at Wisconsin?

                          I think Joel Johnson would be the shoe in; it helps to have your foot in the door, and the Gophers' record in the years Johnson has been on staff speaks for itself. Although admittedly, it was even better with Muzzy on staff.

                            No, only MN does bad things, WI never ever ever does anything wrong.

                            I used to think that a large number of MN fans suffered from cranial insertion but this board is convincing me they would have to go a long way to catch down to Badger fans

                              BTW - I want it noted I called it, right here on this board.

                              Motzko won the audition with his teams performance against Air Force!

                                I thought it would be too obvious if I put the on that post.....I guess it worked out ok. Johnston or Muzzy would just keep the train rolling. What we have to do is get that guy out of the Nursing School. Clearly that program is going to be a thorn in our sides for awhile, especially with all those 21 yr old freshwomen.
