Here is my situation.  I have family who have played
for the Sioux over the years so I hate the Gophers.  I
think my Grandfather had me yelling "GOPHERS SUCK"
since I could talk. I graduated from that afterthought
of the Univ. of MN system, UMD, so I really HATE the U
of M Twin Cities.  Now that I have qualified my hatred
for the Gophers here is what I would do.
 
Personally, I would be in a win-win situation.  I
would cheer for the Gophers, and show my WCHA loyalty.
If they lost, I would be upset for about 5 min, to
show my WCHA loyalty, then I would smile, put my hands
around my throat, and show all my Gopher loving
friends what their team just did. CHOKE!!
 
GO SIOUX!  There is nothing better than having a UND
Law School graduate as a boss.  We have a corporate
retreat scheduled for our local sports bar tomorrow
afternoon.
 
To all of you in Providence, well I can't say it.
Have fun! Go Sioux!
