It's working!  First you get the coaches on-line and subtly re-direct their
thinking.  Once we're a united front we make our move--liberate college hockey
from the NC$$! :-C  Imagine attending the Hockey-L National Men's Ice Hockey
Championships!  Our initial president would be none other than Wayne Smith with
Mike Machnik serving as Director of the Competition and Rules Committee.
Imagine, going head to head with affluent and influential college presidents;
negotiating a network TV contract; :-? presiding over the expansion of the
tournament to 64 teams; starting direct marketing of GENUINE Hockey-L Ceramic
Dalmatian gear....Oh well, what else is there to dream about on a dreary April
afternoon?
