I apologize to all BU for the mistake in their mascots name.  Thank you
Sean for the correction.  I'm getting hard of hearing in my old age.  I
mistakenly heard his name wrong last year in Providence as 5 HUGE BU fans
sitting right behind me cheered for him as he battled the Golden Gopher
before the semi-final game.  I'll remember it for next year, because I'm
sure he will be back.  BTW, I did see that movie.
