Border Battle

Keep it going in Mariucci; I’d like to hear that the Battle Hymn of the Republic was played Saturday night.

In the meantime, we have #9 Western Michigan in town to face the Nanooks. Hopefully, we’ll see the same Alaska team tonight that beat up on NoDak.

Keep your stick on the ice…

Saints Offer September Bounties

This Just in From the St. Paul Pioneer Press:

The St Paul Saints will host “Bounty Night” on September 1st at Midway Stadium when the hometown Saints take on the Wingnuts of Wichita.
“The team will donate $100, $200, $300 and $400 to researchers studying the long-term effects of sports concussions for every Saints player who respectively singles, doubles, triples or homers.”

Leave it to Mike Veeck, the owner of the Saints, who once promoted a bobblehead with two feet under a bathroom stall in honor of former Idado Senator Larry Craig.

So get out to Midway on 1 September for a good cause. I’d be there but that’s moose opener.

After a very rough start in the Big Ten, congrats to the Golden Gopher football program on the huge victory vs. Iowa. Nice win!

Damn good hockey game vs. Anchorage last night as well.
