May I introduce you to America?

Especially since sports gambling has taken over the advertising industry.

"Not me!  I'm not gonna take this!  Coach Pandolfo?  He's a dead man!  Hutson?  Dead!  Yegorov?"
"Dead!"
If you lead a good life, go to Sunday school and church, and say your prayers every night, when you die, you'll go to LYNAH!

Two Chicago watch parties announced so far:

DATE: Saturday, March 29

TIME: 3:00 PM
FEE: Cash bar for food/drinks

Join us as we cheer on Men's Hockey as they play for a spot in the Frozen Four!  Like with the first round, we will be at Theory in River North and Great Coast Commons in Kenilworth. There is no fee to attend or need to register but guests will be responsible for paying for their own food and drink.

Northern Suburbs: Great Coast Commons (414 Green Bay Road, Kenilworth, IL 60043)

"I think this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part"

not exactly a watch party but if anyone in Brooklyn wants to join me at Westbury Inn, that's where I'll be. unlikely that I'll get the audio fwiw.

I'm kind of leaning more towards John Winger's inspirational speech from Stripes:
Stripes Pep Talk
A prophetic tidbit from that (substitute "Cornellians" for "Americans"):
"We're not Spartans. We're Americans, with a capital 'A', huh? You know what that means? Do ya? That means that our forefathers were kicked out of every decent country in the world. We are the wretched refuse. We're the underdog. We're mutts! "

Love it

We might bring in some Churchill:

Never in the sport of hockey have so FEW won so MUCH for so Many: the parents, The Faithfull, Cornell University

I Don't know why everyone thinks BU will be the tougher game than the Michigan State one.  KRACH disagrees

I think Cornell had about a 30% chance of beating MSU and now has about a 30% chance of beating BU. So no, not the tougher game. Also, the teams are very different from each other. Doesn't KRACH just look at wins and losses like PWR?
