    ‘I’m almost there’: A day on the comeback trail with Ryan Suter

    Chad Graff Jul 12, 2018 37
    MADISON,​ Wis. — The heated​ pool​ is already​ full for​ a 7​ a.m.​ aerobics​ class​ with more​ than​ a dozen​​ attendees, none of whom look younger than 70, when Ryan Suter walks by, offering a tour of the rehab facility that now occupies his summer mornings.
    I get that it is a relevant article, and no doubt well written, but you are kind of defeating their business model.

    It is a subscription site, which you obviously know since you mentioned the word "subscribe" in your first line.

    To copy and paste an article in its entirety is a shady thing to do...

        I'm sure the author and the website would love your guerrilla "advertising"

            Good Evening, Hockey Fans! Who remembers that announcement by Phil Mendel before every game? I did a youtube search to check if anybody ever loaded it from some kind of recording. Of course, back then the Coliseum seats were almost full at game time and there was always a huge cheer. THAT would be something to bring back after the history video.

            Canada trip is done, most of the honeydoo list done, Badger Football begins next week. Badger Hockey isn't far behind.

              Phil was the best! He got the already boisterous crowd really amped up.

              I wish so badly we could recapture that energy. I think if they brought back the blue line club it would bring back some Animal House types😀

              Maybe even rumble rink guy would come back!

                As you know, we've discussed those guys in the past. Who the hell knows where they are; but YOU and I could do it. After 30+ years, that would be ****ing hilarious.

                  I’d give it a go! Of course, I’ll have a few spirits beforehand😀

                  I’m also full prepared to start a “who?”, “ so what?!”, “big deal” chant after the opposition scores and the “hi, (insert players first name who takes needless penalties too frequently)” when a kid goes to the box several times like they used to do with Gary Bunz.

                  Any others i’m Missing?

                  Also, for the kids on this board, take pictures or video of ped state signs, banners, overall enthusiasm of their fans from their arena and send to the Barry so he begins to see what fun looks like at a hockey game!

                    A big "WHO CARES?!?" After the entire announcement is both easier and better. And it also exposes the pretentious types who don't understand that they're not actually playing.

                    But even better is what I've been doing for the last couple of years: just start a strong "let's go red" when they make the announcement.

                    Also, stop being so averse to songs. There are some incredibly easy and clever spontaneous things to sing, but people try to cram everything into the two standard chant cadences. It's stupid. And when any other rhythm is introduced, only 5% of people are not entirely baffled.

                          You need to develop an app that sends a broadcast alert message to cheer.
