I've actually come to appreciate old TS a little more....we are similar in many regards. Both full of ourselves (at least I can admit it Tony Scott), both think we are right about everything, know everything hockey related (usually wrong, more than right) but still willing to take it on the chin when we are wrong! Hey Tony-you out there?
We long lost twins perhaps?
Sisters, perhaps?

Quote "This should be a great game! No offense to East, but Hermantown and Grand Rapids are the best teams in Northern Minnesota" end quote...
I think we now know who the best team in N. MN is and it's not Grand Rapids. It's Hermantown and ... maybe Hibbing!

Nope, all my relatives have a measurable IQ.
Sorry, j/k, DJ.

Always need to stand up for my Edina friends. A couple of TS and STsingleA's comments were bad. I'll give them credit for the creativity and maybe making some money out of watching and talking hockey but clearly doesn't mean they know what they are talking about. Just listen to some of the nuggets from the last show and it's evident they have no idea what they are talking about regardless of how much hockey they may watch. Keep at it though cause Stats reminded me to not listen if I don't like it. Thanks Stats. God Bless America!

Having a measurable IQ in Buttmidji sets one apart immediately.

OK now Edina needs protecting, oh my. Most of it is tongue in cheek, with an emphasis on informing fans who haven't seen the games live. No one cares your kid got knicked. And for the most part no one cares what they say 2 days after they say it. If you are so butthurt, make your own podcast it's easy, I do one for Vulture. You obviously are adding zero except your nitpicking because you feel picked on or even worse the protector of all that you consider precious to you. I sure don't see a stampede of people backing you up. So either wake up or shut up. Just an idea but maybe you could cry and tell us about if THEY could save one kid from the constant bashing, wouldn't that be worth it?

Hey Clueless you miss the tongue and cheek. It's a message 'bored' and if you don't like it remember you don't have to read it either per guys like Stats. Love that come back you gem of a tool. I'm awake and still talking and try as I might I have no idea what they heck your trying to say in that last sentence that I chose to waste my time reading. Oh please pm me some info on your podcast so I can choose not to listen to that piece of work.
