              Why did you capitalize every word in that sentence?

                Good question. Someone should let that article writer know that we schedule the debate on the BTHC in July of the offseason, not right before the season starts.

                Jeez.

                  Saw this in the Star Trib blog today.

                  * Lucia said there was a lot of talk about a Big Ten Conference this summer, but it is going nowhere at least until a sixth Big Ten school adds men's hockey.

                  Right now Minnesota and Wisconsin have teams, so does Michigan, Michigan State and Ohio State of the CCHA. Five teams aren't enough for a viable conference.

                  The Big Ten Network is a prime mover and shaker in the conference scuttlebutt. It would love to be able to televise a Big Ten game on Friday night each week, especially after the football season ends, Lucia said. It has basketball games on Thursday and Saturday nights but a hole on Friday nights.
                  http://www.startribune.com/blogs/70605707.html

                  I have a question. If the Big 10 Network wants to broadcast hockey so bad on Friday nights why don't they do it now? Why do they need a conference?

                  Wisconsin has tons of games that are not televised.
                  Ohio State has games that are not televisied.
                  Michigan, Michigan State, etc.

                  Heck even this year the Michigan State/Minnesota Showcase game is not on TV.

                  They can't possibly want to televise this stuff that bad or they'd be doing it already. Tell me I'm wrong.

                      You're not. The last thing college hockey suffers from is overexposure on tv. Probably just goes back to power. The Big 10 can't stand having another organization controlling, at least in part, some of it's member schools.
                      That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                        I don't know if it's a "want to" or a "have to" but they're only broadcasting games between two Big Ten teams at this point. That's why the BTN basically forced the CCHA into pairing Michigan, Michigan State, and Ohio State in their proposed new league schedule.

                          I'm all for a Big Ten conference. I'd rather play MU, MSU, and OSU than SCSU, UAA, MTU, etc. It would generate a lot more interest and get more games on TV. Sign me up.

                            I don't think I've ever neg repped a Badger, but I may have to consider it in your case.

                              Since you are apparently the only person who knows the future schedule, mind letting the rest of us in the CCHA know what it is?

                                Who is this Roman Augustoviz guy? It's his unattributed assertion that the BTN would love to televise more games, but ScoobyDoo is right. Facts speak for themselves. They aren't broadcasting the available games now. I call bullsh*t.
