    I Don’t Mind The Other Guys Dancing With My Girl

    Tuesdays have become our organizational endoscopy, so we have to do the other half and check out the kids in juniors and college.

    For a new wrinkle, let’s start in the college ranks and then make our way to the Great White North. And like I made the mistake of doing, we’ll start in the Northeast. Braden Birch was part of the Cornell team that clocked Michigan at MSG. Watched a lot of that game and he was a lot more noticeable than he was in NBCSN’s coverage of the tilt against Harvard.

    Rock River Swine Weekly

    I feel like talking about some actual hockey. How about you? Yeah, let’s do that.

    While you weren’t paying attention, or just bemoaning the current situation, the Winnebago County Bacon Bits have reeled off three wins in a row. They’re even over .500 if you can believe that. More to the point, despite what Tim Sassone hasn’t bothered to learn, they’re getting contributions from the forwards you want to see make those contributions.

    This little mini-streak started last Wednesday on the Rock River against Peoria.

    I Hope It’s Worth All The Noise

    Not only did that picture fit with the title, but this is the level of intelligence I think the leaders that be are at.

    Maybe it wasn’t the worst, but this was one of the worst weekends to go through as an NHL fan. Not only was the gaping hole where our Black Friday game impossible to ignore as I attempted to watch LSU-Arkansas or something just as non-sensical, but the amount of noise, bullshit, and downright stupidity ramped up even more in the past few days. Add to that the frustration we are feeling has piled up to the point where we are fighting with each other at a moment’s notice, and frankly I’m exasperated as to where to go from here.
