THawks is just a short easier to type version.
Indians is a form of protest/recognition for those players of yesteryear/ force of old habit.

Nothing to write home about.

Thers still a large group that still calls themselves Indians,Im sure alot of them will come out of the woodwork for the tourney.

Elliott remember back in the day when the cheerleaders had those huge Indian head dresses when rapids was at state, where did the go??

Just heard a top GR sophomore will not play in the tourney due to drinking. Can anyone confirm this?

Let's hope not for the kid's sake. That's something he would regret the rest of his life.

Sadly it is true.

Seriously hope this is not true. What a disappointment and blow it would be to the whole team...

That would be a shame for a team that fought so hard to finally get past Duluth East. Ouch....

Well just see who they don't anncounce tonight and you'll know. You can say unconfirmed but the name is out there and from what I've heard it's true

That's truly disappointing if true. As someone who isn't able to get up north to watch many games I was truly looking forward to seeing this GR-Bem. game and all the talent both teams have. I'm still hoping it's not true because I would love to see both these teams at full strength but it's sounding like I shouldn't get my hope up.

Must have been the party after section finals. I bet Luverne supplied the red solo cups.

Kids will be kids.

This will be cryptic but in fairness to the player involved I thinks it's better this way. No defending the mistake that was made but if the circumstances by which he was identified are true it just makes you want to scream. Let's just say modern technology can be used for nefarious reasons.

Heard a rumor about how he got caught. May just be a rumor but a pretty BS move if true. Feel bad for the kid.
The rumor that a kid from another team did it? If so that is false

Not so sure about that.

Wet Paint · Post by **Wet Paint** » Thu Mar 03, 2016 3:58 am

So, lets assume that the rumor is true and that a kid got busted for drinking and is out. Does not matter for the purposes of this post who it is. Call this kid Thing 1. When was the roster submitted for state? Is it frozen? If Thing 1 got busted and can't skate that could leave a hole in the team (and depending on which kid it was it could be a really really big hole) that could pretty well end GR's chances IMO.

Can Rapids drop that kid off of the roster and put Thing 2 on in his place?

When's the last time an impact player has been suspended prior to the tournament?

Thinking Chris Locker in '94.....

hadenuf · Post by **hadenuf** » Thu Mar 03, 2016 4:19 am

I heard that Rapids has added the 3rd goalie to its vacated roster spot.
Yes, sources say a picture sealed his fate and it made the 80 mile trek west to Grand Rapids. No excuse....he screwed up, so his team has to pay the price. Kids......

RalphCox · Post by **RalphCox** » Thu Mar 03, 2016 4:23 am

So what you're saying is someone from Duluth got this kid in trouble via social media?

WOW

Doc Holliday · Post by **Doc Holliday** » Thu Mar 03, 2016 4:28 am

I'd accuse Randolph if he knew how to use snapchat....

hadenuf · Post by **hadenuf** » Thu Mar 03, 2016 4:50 am

Break the rule...pay the price. Doesn't matter how you get caught. (although the story has a nice twist to it). Makes you wonder how long GRHS has known about it.

Maybe should have served the suspension prior to the final weekend??

Are you saying that they are going to need that 3rd goalie or did they bring him along to show him the bright lights of the big city?

I will say only that there's a bit more to the story than the current rumor circulating.

It's a shame, but on this board, we don't name names in situations like this.

Oh come on, give us city folks the rumor that is going around up north. We don't need any names, just want the picture.
