For some reason I think we could see one of us loosing too.

I just really hope its the sioux.

ID love to play the Sioux and destroy them sunday. They are an average team, and the gophs are an above average team. Come to think of it, is there a great team this year? How about a really good team? I guess everyone will say BC, I havnt seen em play at all.

Not sure who did it last year but I made a group for us.

Group Name: Fishing55

Just a reminder for anyone who want to get in, I'm not sure it might even be too lake but give it a shot if you want to play.

If you have to pick a favorite you would say BC, they are on a lengthly winning streak and are alwasy good this time of year. They aren't head and shoulders above everyone but they have some momentum. After that who the heck knows, there are 8 or 10 teams packed in there that can beat anyone, even the rest of the schools look solid, truely wide open if you ask me.

Do creepy avatars give you good luck in the NCAA's? Need more than 9 of us, come on!

I'm so excited and nervous at the same time I can't stand it. It's driving me nuts that I have to wait until 7 pm tomorrow night to see if my team adances past the first round.

Agree Bear that 1/2 - 2/3 of the field could win the Natty. 6 out of the teams have never won it all: Miami, UMAss Lowell, Union, Ferris, Air Force, and Western Mich. BC and UND are on pretty good runs right now. Funny thing is you don't need to be on unbeaten streak to get hot right now. Goalies gotta step it up and the power plays have gotta sizzle. Figure there will be at least one game out of the four where your offense falters and you need to lean on your guy between the pipes.

I think we have over 20 last year, come on people sign up, its fun and free!! I think you can even win something if you have the best bracket on the site, best of the 8K entries, not our little group.

Fantastic news! Melrose is in Bridgeport. We won't have to see him out here. Wonder how he watched a seasons worth of college hockey in a week, so he won't sound like an i-diot. Ahh who am I kidding, he'll sound like an i-diot for sure.

I made my picks. The first game had already started when I made my picks so....not sure how that works. Anyway I will give my theory on the Tourny. I think the Gophers have the most talent in their bracket but that doesn't mean they will come out of it. I hope they do. With all the depressing sports teams in this state we need a winner.

UMD is going to the Fozen Four. Denver will lose in the first round. Michigan vs Michigan St. and Gophs vs UMD for the Frozen Four. Gophs over Michigan for the Championship.

Hopefully my WCHA and CCHA bias isn't too obvious. I just don't like East Coast hockey of any kind. Probably the same kind of hatred that all WCHA teams have against the Gophs.

I don't really post too much but I lurk in the hockey page more than any other page on this site. I don't have much to say very often.

Union wins pretty easily over the Spartans. Why they didn't pull their goalie until like 25 seconds left is beyond me. 4-1 is no worse than 3-1.

Not a lot of action so far with Denver.

Bad news about Melrose is he's still pretty close to Worcester. 2 hours away. Maybe he'll be lazy and stay in Bridgeport. Then again, the guy in Green Bay mentioned the Denver Broncos before the puck dropped.

    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
