    (Honestly: the only other KC event I see this weekend is a Sunday men's bouncyball game against MSU). Unless the overtime cost to do the conversion from hockey to basketball is really high, I don't know how to explain the Th - F series.)
    I assume it is for the Big Ten Channel, but has the secondary bonus of keeping more of the buck tooth rodent fans away.

      Lord knows the BADgers don't want any fans in the arena to watch them get thumped again.

        I hope the badgers get Kerdiles and Barnes back for this series. Should be a dandy either way.

          Eventually Mom remarried a guy from Bloomington who came to town to manage the local Prange's store. He liked to fish, and in winter he'd usually invite his buddies over from the Twin Cities to go with him. It's a long time ago now, but I mostly remember Saturday mornings getting my gear and heading out to our local pond rink only to find it covered with Minnesota ice-holes.

          Oh. I forgot to mention -- Mom was hot.

            Yeah, why sell full price admission to the visitors when you can beg and plead with the locals to buy the same ticket for $5?

              Read that the UMN is busing students to the games this weekend. Should be a good atmosphere at the games this weekend (err.... Mid-Week-end).

                I saw that Steve.

                Just keep hitting keys. If monkeys can write Shakespeare I assume even a goofer can eventually have the same luck with a simple post.

                  I figured we would see Gurt and his "artwork" in this thread by now, must be working on a masterpiece.

                    She must have been hot.

                    Clearly too hot for a Wisconsinite.

                    Sounds like fond memories indeed.

                    Some things never change.

                      I kinda wish he'd show up and put Wisko out of his misery. Wisko is trying to play the role of Gurt, but really he is just coming off as mentally challenged. At least Gurt is clever.

                        Not to excuse this abnormal schedule, but I believe the master B1G hockey plan was to make every team play one weird series, Thurs-Fri, Sun-Mon, etc. This is our turn for that. As to overtime for conversions, that was my job back around the turn of the century. A lot of nights, it took until 1 or 2am to finish, but alas it was your standard student job with no overtime.

                            I admit it's difficult to entertain you guys down on your level. But let me try to summarize your collective thoughts:

                            "We want more funy pitchurs!"

                            Does that about cover it?

                                At least that is more entertaining than your stories.
