Phew. Glad my prediction of playing the goofers in MN was wrong.

Jayson Moy was on the money.

Meh. At least MSP would have been reasonable for travel purposes.

I'm there +1.

What's not to love about GB in early spring?!  :-}

Milwaukee is only 2 hours away from Green Bay.  Plenty of non-stops from NY and Philly (and Cleveland, FWIW).   And last time I drove the four hours from Chicago.

And the bracket actually makes sense given the rules.  Keep the 2-3 pairings correct (5-12, 6-11, etc.).  Put Minnesota at home, then the highest 1-seed gets the lowest available 2-seed.  And since we couldn't play Union and the 2 CCHA school couldn't play Michigan, we HAD to be in Green Bay.

I could do without being the late game, but that's the NC$$, I suppose.

From O'Hare it's just about 3 hours.  You must've flown into Midway.

Yep.  There are no cheap flights into O'Hare.

Doesn't do me any good here in London.

I haven't decided yet. I do have a room at the Days Inn. I have no idea how good it is, but it's only a block away and $70-90 plus taxes. Anybody stayed there? I just canceled my rooms at the other regionals.:`-(

I was hoping a pairing with Umich would happen soon but we are leaving for Florida Saturday so no go for us.

I also wanted to use my post for the year to say LET'S GO RED!
