True or False:

If all Lego Players are Hockey Players, and all Hockey Players are Prima Donnas, then all who play with Legos are definitely Prima Donnas.

Since you seem to have conceded defeat in the Joe -vs- Phil argument lets match up Big Joe -vs- Tiger. Making imaginary assumption that they are the same age and in there prime we'll face them off: Baseball - Joe wins Football - Joe wins Golf - Eldrick Hockey - Joe (hear he's actually pretty good t...

Nice for Minneapolis.

Just curious, since that is a birth year tournament, which age group did they play in?

SC is right on. The ADM stuff is great, but needs to be mixed in with full ice. ADM will work well developing certain types of players, not all. Some players will mature earlier on big ice and will struggle with small ice skills and games - conversely, others will shine early in small ice stuff but ...

Bobo can multi task.

Perhaps you should change your handle to Bo Jackson.

Evidently you can post on the blog, watch tv, work and beat your head on the wall at the same time.

Remarkable

2360 total posts in 3.5 years.

Let's make a few assumptions.

10 minutes to read new posts.

5 minutes to reply to posts.

15 minutes per post total x 2360 posts = 35,400 minutes or 590 hours.

590 hours.

I'm glad I'm not your boss.

Seems like a no brainer - can't believe that other rinks / cities around town have not done it. Roseville Oval only one that comes to mind - great facility.

How did that work out for the Centaurs?

Maybe should have spent some energy recruiting and developing BC program.

Same said for AA - A - if the top programs are stronger, recruit and develop your programs to compete rather than throw in the towel and create a new level to compete at for false glory.

It was squirt a, probably mistaken on passolt though.
Solid group nonetheless and I think of relevance to the topic.
