Hiya folks.
Once upon a time, I was a 22 year old, first year graduate student at the
University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, who had never seen a hockey game in
his life.  Convinced by a friend, I purchased season tickets for the Gophers,
and slowly got into the thick of things.  In fact, I became an avid fan.
Anyway, early that season, I told my friend that Minnesota would meet
Harvard in the NCAA final (I had just come from Columbia, and I *hated*
Harvard).  As fate would have it, my prediction was correct, although the
outcome was not to my liking.
 
I would like to offer my prediction for this year - I don't understand all
of the tourney seed/bracket junk, so it may be an impossibility, but anyway,
here it is - just two teams, no scores, no winner.
 
		MINNESOTA GOLDEN GOPHERS
			VS.
		MAINE BLACK BEARS
 
I *HATE* Maine!  :-)
