Two quick comments. First, I was very careful in wording my original post, saying that no state had *more* Div-I teams than Michigan. But, I was too subtle in my mini-woof, because I've received 12-20 messages pointing out that Massachusetts and/or New York [depending on the message] also have seven. :-) Stop. Please. :-) Second, and more importantly, happy holiday to all. For anyone attending the College Hockey Showcase in St Paul, please find me and say hello. I'll be wearing a blue HALKO 24 or yellow KNUBLE 22 Michigan jersey...'cept of course when Michigan State plays Wisconsin. Then I'll be wearing an upside down Bucky Badger and doing a lot of mooing. :-) John H U Mich
