  • tUMD @ MTU: We have a Finn that's more Finn than your Finns

    Biddco is making this thread slightly early because he likes the thread title and wanted to use it before someone else made another. This will be a fantastic series that has huge PWR implications for both teams. Should be a pretty full barn with two UMD fan buses and a group of Gopher fans from GPL who are making the trip. Biddco is sad this series won't be continued in the near future and will miss talking in third person greatly.

    tBrenthoven has been counting down tdays until this trip for a while. This is due to tGophers not going to Houghton anymore, and for an escape for a couple days. tBrenthoven says this will be a fun trip, and that having MTU being good this year (LEGIT!!!) does help tcause.

      Hopefully with more Finns on our side, the SISU will tip on the Tech side.

        Section16RowA has to take Biddco to the middle school English woodshed for the thread title for using the sophomoric "we." Section16RowA's first impression was Tech fan wrote title. Section16RowA suggests "tBulldogs have a Finn...." Section16RowA references the Seinfeld episode where GF uses the "it's me" at start of a phone conversation to justify pet peeve with fans misusing the term "we."

        Section16RowA also thinks this will be a great series and was thinking of heading to Houghton to watch a game. Fortunately, Section16RowA has spent many work related evenings in Houghton and has fulfilled lifetime sentence (50) of required nights in Yooperville. Section16RowA wishes for it to be on TV in Duluth like a kid wishing for a pony for Christmas.

          tBrenthoven disagrees with t"we" portion of tSections argument. As a fan, using tterm "we" means tfans and tteam is one entity. tBrenthoven also thinks that tSection is missing out on a fun experience this weekend, as a few Gopher fans will be randomly crashing this series.

            tSection16RowA first asks for mea culpa on first post not using t with name. tSection16RowA sees some merit in tBrenthoven's reasoning, but use of t"we" usually causes confusion in daily conversations. tSection16RowA has frequently heard someone exclaim t"we won" and until further clarification that this person is a fan of Team X, welp....

            tSection16RowA appreciates tBrenthoven stating "as a few Gopher fans will be randomly crashing this series" to communicate clearly who is doing what; rather than lazily referring to a specific group as t"we." tSection16RowA files overuse of t"we" as assumed familiarity.

              tRalph is happy that tMTU and tUMD still play each other even though tUMD is no longer in tWCHA.

                  tFade will miss this series, but tFade will enjoy tbreak from tthird person and tstupid little 't's. tFade will never understand why tUMD fans insist on associating themselves and tCity of Duluth with tOSU and Ohio's anus Columbus.

                  tFade is concerned about this series, given that tInstitution is coming off a bye week and tUMD just maintained momentum by sweeping tCC. tFade thinks tUMD will win on Friday, and tInstitution will come back for tsplit on Saturday.

                    tRaceBoarder just wants to talk in third person one last, final, last time

                    Oh, and of course, see how tUMD does against tMTU... tRaceBoarder wants to see a tMTU sweep because tRaceBoarder can't like a Nacho team on principal... Although tRaceBoarder truly believes that tUMD is the most likable Nacho team... tUMD should have never left tWCHA

                      tBiddco now realizes that a better word should have been chosen. But now that everyone is cleared on the use of the term it should not be a problem.

                      Biddco is really looking forward to this weekend. Going to have so many close friends in town and am looking forward to all my Houghton favorites, Fishbowls, Ambo pizza, KBC on tap and tDT. Happy to be leaving Thursday afternoon! Is it Thursday yet?

                        tBrenthoven would like to point out that tlittle "t" is parodying tOSU, ridiculing them, not associating with them. Why? Because tlittle "t" is ridiculous, and this is a way to show that.

                          tSection16RowA thanks tBiddco. tSection16RowA hopes tHoughton is ready for invasion of visiting tfans and wonders if ttickets will be hard to come by. tSection16RowA hopes tDogs can somehow tSweep tHuskies, but that will be a tough task. tSection16RowA refuses to invoke tDahl mantra and be thappy with a tsplit.

                              This also pleases tBrenthoven. If they serve pasties, though, tBrenthoven might end up chucking one at tMel in disgust.
