Since no one seems to be supporting the BDN, I'll do my customary jump
to the other side and offer ...
 
   I am optimistic that the BDN will improve substantially in the weeks
   and months to come.  The recent hiring of Mark Woodward as Editor
   will have a dramatic effect on the quality of what we see there, IMHO.
   Changes are already being made; keep the faith :-)
 
An on the 6-0 BU victory ...
 
   Anyone watch the teams exchange handshakes after the game, or listen
   to the post-game media conferences?
 
   This early season drubbing was a disappointment for everyone looking
   for a new "Alfond classic" match (me included).  But for me, all of
   the sting left as I heard coaches Parker and Walsh praise each other
   and each other's team.
 
   It may take a healthy Parmentier and Wansborough and a hot goalie to
   go all the way, but I think we've got a team we can enjoy watching
   and be proud of here.
 
Where will you be at 1 pm this Saturday?
 
(Correct answer: Alfond Arena, Orono).
 
cheers,
